LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

Facilities Committee Update
The Facilities Committee met back in October to get feedback from committee members on what they have been hearing from the community concerning our school district and its’ facilities. Over the past few months the district has been focusing on our stadium project. The North Royalton Stadium Foundation is close to reaching its’ goal of raising the necessary funds for the new synthetic turf and track project. In addition the district and School Board is committed to getting the other necessary parts of the project done to make this a reality. The district will need to go out to bid on the project, but the hope is that we will be able to do all or most of the proposed stadium project. Besides the stadium project, the committee will start developing an informational campaign with a video showing the limitations of our facilities in the district so the community has a better understanding of the district’s needs. The committee needs much more community involvement for its’ future meetings. So if you have concerns about our current facilities, have professional expertise, or just want to have your voice heard then consider attending a future facilities committee meeting. I will keep you posted when then next committee meeting will be for 2011. One of the goals of the district’s strategic plan is to come up with a Facilities Master Plan and is something the committee will be continuing to work on next year.

Board Update

Good Evening:

It is hard to believe we are only weeks away from the end of the year 2010 and that I have been serving on the North Royalton School Board for almost entire year now. It seems like so much longer than that. I must say this has been a great year and it is an honor to serve as a member of the School Board. I truly enjoy all your feedback and confidence in me as a leader. As you may know each January at the School Board’s Organizational Meeting the Board elects its’ President and Vice President for the year. After lots of positive feedback from constituents and much thought I would like to announce that I am running for Vice President of the North Royalton School Board. The year 2011 will be very challenging with the upcoming state budget and many other issues the district will face in the coming year. I believe it is important to step up as a leader and serve in the role of Vice President for the Board. On January 10th the Board will vote on its’ leadership positions. I will keep you posted if I do get elected by the Board to the Vice Presidency; I just thought it was important to share this news with you.

LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

The School Board met on December 13th for its’ December Regular School Board Meeting. The Board approved the appointment of School Board Member Cheryl Hannan as the representative to the Cuyahoga Valley Career Center Board of Education for a two-year term. The approved a resolution to set January 10, 2011 at 7pm, North Royalton High School Community Room, as the time and place for the Organizational Meeting of the Board of Education; the 2011 Tax Budget Hearing will be part of the January Regular Meeting which will immediately follow the Organizational Meeting. The board also approved 2010-2011 appropriation adjustments. The Board approved the appointment of Leonard Reinhard as the President Pro Tempore for the 2011 Board of Education Organizational Meeting. In addition the Board approved adding Financial Literacy and College Career Readiness courses into the district’s curriculum. The Board approved December 2010 Policy Updates. Also Board approved a resolution authorizing the President of the Board of Education and Treasurer of this Board to on this Board’s behalf in connection with the improvements to the North Royalton Stadium Complex an agreement with MKC Associates, Inc. For Professional design services in an amount not to exceed two hundred forty two thousand dollars ($242,000). I would like to note that the work MKC is doing is being funded by the district’s (PI) Permanent Improvement dollars. The Board approved also various other agenda items, and such other matters that came before the Board.

Attended the North Royalton Middle School’s Holiday Breakfast Celebration on December 16th. I enjoyed spending time with our great administrators, teachers, and staff at the middle school.

On December 18th I volunteered at the North Royalton Food Bank to help with distributing the Christmas gifts and food to the over 140 families in our community in need. Special thanks to all those in the community; who have been so generous in supporting our local food bank. Because of you families in our community will be able to enjoy Christmas, even in the most difficult of times.

High School Gift Tree
Students at North Royalton High School collected over $3,000 and we were able to get gifts for 10 families from their Christmas wish lists. In addition they were able to help 5 families by giving them $100 gift cards to Giant Eagle, and they were also gave $700 to the North Royalton Office of Aging who uses the money to buy presents for needy families in North Royalton. Thank you to the 65 students and staff who helped decorated presents and all those who participated in this very worthy cause!!!

Snow Days Update
As you know the district has already used up 2 out 3 snow days for this school year. The district is looking at what options we have since we only have 1 snow day left. There have been some talks about doing a 2 hour delay if weather conditions warrant it. I will keep you posted on what the district’s plans are for moving forward. Below is an article about some of the debate going on in the state regarding snow days that is important to share.

Kasich Settles Snow Day Debate

Gov.-elect John Kasich says after consulting his daughter, he has decided Ohio should return to the five calamity days allotted schools before the Legislature reduced them to three under the current budget.

The incoming governor requested more time to study the issue Wednesday morning during questions with reporters but later made up his mind, he says, after his daughter weighed in on the snow day debate spurred by Sen. Tim Grendell (R-Chesterland). (See The Hannah Report, 12/14/10.)

Kasich says his administration will go back to five calamity days, but as with the final year of Taft tax cuts scheduled in Calendar Year 2011, the governor-elect need do nothing for the state to revert to five snow days in the school year beginning 2011. (See The Hannah Report, 12/10/10.) However, additional snow days in the current academic year would require a legislative fix by the incoming Republican majority in both houses.

Grendell, who launched a mini-storm over calamity days Tuesday, responded to the announcement.

“As a continual supporter for educating the future generations of Ohioans, we need to help out schools districts that have the heavy, snowy weather conditions and not have them worry about the safety of their students and faculty,” the senator said. “I look forward to sitting down and working with Gov.-elect Kasich and the leadership teams of both the House and Senate to make this happen.”

Gov. Ted Strickland, who requested the snow day reduction in HB1 as part of his phase-in of a longer school year, also responded to Kasich’s announcement.

“I think if the state pays for a day of instruction for a student, the student should get a day of instruction.”

LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

Attended the Policy Committee Meeting on December 8th by teleconference, unfortunately I was stuck in downtown Cleveland when a massive blizzard hit. Luckily I always have my notes with me. The committee reviewed the December 2010 policy updates. Most of the updates just required minor revisions and changes in language because of new legal requirements. There are only two new policies that were required by changes in the law or legislation such as: a new policy dealing with Call to Active Duty and Educational Opportunity for Military Children.

The School Board met on December 8th for its’ Board Work Session. The Board got an update on the status of the fundraising efforts for the stadium project, donations are on the rise. The Board also discussed what kind of design work MKC Associates Inc. will be doing for the Stadium Project. The Board had discussion on whether or not the Board Work Sessions and Special Meetings should also be audio recorded. The Board also discussed when the Board’s Organizational Meeting will be held for next year. The Board went into executive session to discuss personnel matters. The Board reviewed the December Regular Meeting agenda items, and such other matters that came before the Board.

Donation guidelines: Pajamas must be NEW! All sizes are needed – don’t forget the older children! Please provide complete sets of pajamas.

Copy of Board Member Langshaw's Statement at the Dec. 8th Work Session

Dear President Reinhard and Board,

As we approach our organizational meeting in January 2011, I propose that North Royalton Board of Education does an audit to determine the effectiveness of our current standing and ad hoc committees of the Board. The purpose of the audit would be to determine if it is even necessary to have a board member assigned to certain committees, versus would it be better suited to have an administrator just report back to the board on certain committees that we have.

I have contacted OSBA and according to them, school boards must have by law a Family & Civic Engagement Committee (RC 3313.821) and a Business Advisory Committee (RC 3313.82). Also according to OSBA it is typical for boards in our state to have standing committees for Curriculum, Policy, and Finance. I believe that our board has too many committees with a total of 17. I think about half of our current committees truly need a board member assigned to it.

In addition as a result of our strategic plan which calls for us as a district to increase our engagement with the community. Our current committee system does not do that because of the times the majority of our committees are schedule between the hours of 8am-3pm. The common complaint I get from residents is that the hours of committees discourage community involvement. In addition as a board member, because

I work full time in downtown Cleveland like many of our residents, I too am unable to even attend a majority of the meetings even I am assigned too. I believe the committees that need board members to be assigned to them should meet between the hours of 5pm-7pm. It is my understanding this is also a common practice in other districts.

If all possible can we please re-evaluate our current committee structure before our new Board President, whoever he/she may be makes appointments for the year 2011?

Thanks,

Dan Langshaw
Board Member
North Royalton Board of Education

Talk begins on next state budget continues!
This week was more discussion around the state about the upcoming state budget. Here is a recent update from the Ohio School Boards Association:

State Budget Update from OSBA

This past weekend, Ohio House Speaker-designee Bill Batchelder (R-Medina) and probable Senate President Tom Niehaus (R-New Richmond) appeared on "Capitol Square" on the Ohio News Network. During an interview on the next state budget, Batchelder and Niehaus indicated the probability of a 15-20% cut in state spending for a variety of state expenditures, including primary and secondary education. It is unclear at this point how the federal stimulus money figures into any such calculation, and both legislative leaders indicated that they are not in favor of any across-the-board cuts, but instead favor an analysis by department and agency.

OSBA, BASA and OASBO are committed to keeping their members as informed as possible during these difficult times. In passing along this information, it is important to note that we are very early in the process. Governor-elect John Kasich, Batchelder and Niehaus have not even taken office. However, it is important that they are working on this issue early. We are very aware that many districts must make May ballot decisions by early February and the amount of state funding is a key element in that decision. Therefore, we will continue to monitor the situation and make you aware of key information.

THIS WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

NORTH ROYALTON STADIUM FOUNDATION
NORTH ROYALTON CITY SCHOOLS
Press Release

Serpentini Chevrolet Takes the Driver’s Seat
in the Naming of the North Royalton Schools Stadium

The North Royalton Stadium Foundation hosted an exciting press conference on Friday, November 19 at 9:30 am at the North Royalton City Schools stadium. The Foundation and the North Royalton City School District announced that Serpentini Chevrolet has purchased the naming rights to the stadium for $100,000. The field will still be named Gibson Field, after former North Royalton City School’s principal Chuck Gibson.

“In 1997, the North Royalton field was named in Chuck Gibson’s honor. Serpentini Chevrolet Stadium, home of Gibson Field, has moved closer to the goal of being the host to more than just football. Chuck was and is a great supporter of the three A’s: Academics, Athletics, and Arts all of which are part of the stadium plan,” said Ed Vittardi, Superintendent, North Royalton City Schools. “Now, with Bob Serpentini and Serpentini Chevrolet’s commitment to our stadium project, we are one step closer to being the host to more than 200 events a year. Soccer will again return to the field, along with track meets, band competitions, youth athletics, community events, and so much more.”

At the press conference, foundation chairperson Larry Vasil thanked the contributors to the project thus far which has raised in contributions more than $500,000. “What a successful five months it has been,” said Vasil. “Our plan is aggressive, but our community is strong and supportive. That is evident with the large amount of donations that we have received.”

He also showed his appreciation to some of those $10,000 and higher donors. They include:

Southern Hills Youth Football
North Royalton Athletic Boosters
North Royalton Soccer Club
Richard Pilat Insurance
Pete Ragone Family, Rushmore Construction
Jocko’s
Larry Vasil Family
Tina Stopar Insurance
Pinzone Financial Services
Royalton Music Center

Parma Community General Hospital has also signed on as a significant sponsor and partner in the project.

The stadium also will be the home field for Holy Name High School beginning next school year.

The goal of the North Royalton Stadium Foundation is to raise the necessary funds allowing the construction of the turf and track to be completed before the 2011 fall sports season. “This is very exciting news for the entire North Royalton school community as the North Royalton Stadium Foundation approaches the exciting possibilities of our "new" community stadium,” said Vittardi.

The North Royalton Stadium Foundation board members consist of Larry Vasil, Chairman; Ed Vittardi, President, George Heinemann, Vice-President; Barry Ezell and Charlie Weible, Co-Treasurers; and Kathy Tomaro, Secretary

LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

On November 11th attended Valley Vista Elementary School’s Veterans Day Celebration. Students and staff recognized Veterans in the community through nice patriotic songs and presentations to honor their service to our nation. Ms. Jan Merrick and Mrs. Presot gave a presentation on the Honor Flight program which Valley Vista has been raising money in order to give WWII Veterans in the Cleveland area an opportunity to fly them to Washington, DC to see the WWII Memorial that is dedicated in their honor. Present at the event was one of the WWII Veterans who was able to go to the memorial last year because of the generosity of our great students and staff at Valley Vista through their donations to this program. On a personal note being a US Army Veteran, I was extremely touched by what a great job Valley Vista did to honor veterans in our community. Again thank you to all those who have served or are currently serving in the U.S. Military! If you like to learn more about Honor Flight Cleveland you can check out their website at: http://honorflightcleveland.com/index.php




The School Board met on November 11th for its’ Board Work Session. The Board got an update on the status of the fundraising efforts for the stadium project. The district will use a grant to study ways to improve efficiency of central office staff. Work on the district’s new website is coming along. Treasurer Mcintosh provided the board with copies of the district’s 5 year forecast. As a result of the recent political changes in Ohio and the $6-$8 billion dollar hole to fill in the next state budget, the district will be much more conservative with our own budget and filling future openings in personnel. The Board went into executive session to discuss personnel matters. The Board also completed its’ evaluation of the Superintendent. The Board reviewed the November Regular Meeting agenda items, and such other matters that came before the Board.

Talk begins on next state budget!
This week there was a lot of discussion around the state about the upcoming state budget and what it means for funding education here in Ohio. I am not going to lie this next state budget is going to be extremely rough and it is important that we are all actively engaged in the process to ensure that state funding for education is not cut! This will be something you will be hearing much more about in the next several months and I will keep you all posted. Below are two articles that I found very interesting and wanted to share with you:

Plain Dealer: Ohio Voters turn down tax hikes for schools, while state cuts loom

Winter Weather FYI
As the weather is quickly changing towards winter, please remember that it is policy that all children must be at their designated bus stop ready to board the bus at least five (5) minutes prior to their pick up time, even in rain and snow conditions. If your child is not out waiting at his/her designated stop when the bus arrives, it will unfortunately continue on and will not be able to make a return trip. Students cannot be waiting in garages or cars, but must be visible at their stop ready to board. This policy was established for safety reasons as well as to make the routes run as efficient as possible. If the bus is constantly being held one or two minutes for students who are running up the street or not waiting at their designated stop ready to board, it adds unneeded additional time to the run and forces those children who are out on time to wait longer than what is necessary.

Board Update

Good Evening:

Wow, it is hard to believe it is already November. Soon it will be Thanksgiving and then before you know it will be Christmas. This week was a lot fun with the first Health, Wellness & Community Expo that was held yesterday at North Royalton High School! Hopeful you all had a chance to check it out and learn something new.

LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

On November 1st attended City Earth Energy Environment Committee Meeting. The city’s recycling program is doing well and participation continues to rise. Ace Hardware has sold out of the blue bins for recycling. They are expected to receive a new order of bins that should be available sometime on November 15th. The committee received news that Town Planner will not be printed in 2011. The person who holds the franchise for North Royalton is unable to print the Planner in 2011. So instead the city will be doing an insert in the Royalton Recorder to provide residents with information about the city’s recycling rules. This insert is paid for by a county grant the city received. I have also attached a copy of the rules to this e-mail. The committee was also informed that the city received a grant of $287,000 from Northeast Ohio Public Energy Council to make the city’s police station more energy efficient. The improvements are expected to help save the city $10,000 annually based on current utility rates. The next EEE Committee meeting will sometime next year in early January or February.

On November 4th attended the Cuyahoga Valley Career Center’s twelfth annual joint board dinner. The event was held at the CVCC’s Valley Inn Restaurant, and the dinner was prepared by the culinary arts students who did an amazing job! CVCC Superintendent Roscoe Schlachter gave a presentation on some of the great things happening at the vocational center and introduced some of the great staff teaching our students. There was also a presentation by the Construction Trades program that detailed some of the neat new green building technologies our students are learning. Some students from the program were selected to participate in ABC’s Extreme Home Makeover TV show, where students were able to put what they learned in the classroom into practice in real life by helping a Maple Heights family building the home of their dreams. We are very lucky that our vocational students are able to attend a great place like the CVCC!

On November 6th the North Royalton City Schools in cooperation with the City of North Royalton and Sports Rehabilitation Consultants hosted the first Community Health and Wellness Expo. The event was held at North Royalton High School where there was a health, wellness and community fair. People were treated to the entertainment of Island Jeff’s Steel Drum Show courtesy of Jeff Cavallo. There were health screenings, wellness presentations; various healthcare, business & civic organizations exhibitor displays; healthy food samplings; and Blood Drive by the American Red Cross. Early in the morning the city of North Royalton held their 10th Annual 5k Bear Run! In addition the elementary schools had their 2nd annual Turkey Trot/Walk at the Stadium Track which benefits the North Royalton/Kiwanis Food Bank. My knee was acting up and I was sadly unable to do the bear run this year but I did enjoy doing the Turkey Trot Walk with our elementary school students, staff, and parents. Hopefully next year I will be able to do the 5k bear run! Again thank you to all those who came out to this great joint community and school district event!

Attended the Ohio School Boards Association’s Early Bird Workshop on November 7th down in Columbus as part of their Capital Conference. The keynote speaker for the early bird workshop was Alan November, an international leader in educational technology, has been director of an alternative high school, computer coordinator, technology consultant, and university lecturer. His ideas on global communication, and ways increase technology into the classroom were very interesting and informative.

Winter Weather FYI
As the weather is quickly changing towards winter, please remember that it is policy that all children must be at their designated bus stop ready to board the bus at least five (5) minutes prior to their pick up time, even in rain and snow conditions.

LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

The School Board met on October 18th for its’ October Regular School Board Meeting. The board had a few special guests at its’ meeting such as acknowledging the work of Corey Vetovitz, a NRHS sophomore and Eagle Scout who did a project as part of obtaining his Eagle Scout Badge by fixing up the grounds at Albion Elementary School. The Board was also given a great treat of listening to a performance by 9 year old George Shum, a piano prodigy who recently performed at Carnegie Hall. During the meeting when approving the minutes for the September 9, 2010 Special Board Meeting, I offered an amendment to correct some inaccuracies in the minutes for the public record to show that a recorded vote had taken place at the last Special Board meeting in regards to approving district owned cell phones to board members for board business. All of the board’s meetings must follow Ohio’s Open Records and Open Meetings laws known as the Sunshine Laws. Mrs. Hannan and I tried to correct the record to ensure compliance with these laws but the majority of the board thought differently and the past board meeting minutes were approved by a 3-2 vote. The Board approved 2010-2011 student activities. The Board also approved a proclamation declaring October the Month of the Young Adolescent. In addition the Board approved various appointments and service agreements. The Board approved the appointment of Carolyn Baetjer as the new District Health Coordinator. Board approved a resolution authorizing the execution of a memorandum of understanding with the North Royalton Athletic Boosters. The Board approved also various other agenda items, and such other matters that came before the Board.

Attended the home NRHS Football game vs. Valley Forge High School on October 15th, the bears won 41-20 and are now have a 7-1 record on the season. Congrats! Also it was Band Night, to recognize all our students who are members of our marching band. Best wishes to our band at their upcoming band competitions!

“Putting Students First”

Board Update

Good Afternoon:

Wow, what another great week for the North Royalton School District. Last Friday the district celebrated Royal View Elementary School being named as Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education. This is such a great time to be here in the North Royalton School District! There is so much to report.


LAST WEEK IN YOUR SCHOOL BOARD

Attended the City Earth Energy Environment Committee Meeting on October 4th. The committee discussed how the new recycling program is saving tax dollars. The Service Director estimated that there is about 30% increase in the city’s recycling program. The city Administration gave an update on its’ energy audit. The city has also applied for and received a NOPEC Powering Our Community Grant to make city buildings more energy efficient. Once completed the improvements are estimated to save the city 10,000 in tax dollars at the current rates on the Police Department Building alone. There was also more discussion about the city’s new recycling calendar and ways to make the new YMCA a green building.

On October 5th attended Northeast Ohio Green Government Caucus meeting at South Euclid City Hall. The main focus of the caucus is to explore ways that local city councils and school boards in the region can work together on various green issues. It was very interesting to learn what other cities are doing to be more green!

The School Board met on October 7th for its’ Board Work Session. The Board got an update on the stadium renovation project and the options for moving forward. So far $125,000 has been raised towards the stadium project. The district continues to explore the possibility of putting up a wind turbine. More companies are being explored regarding the wind turbine project and an energy expert is also looking at the district’s wind numbers to determine the feasibility of such a project if we were to move forward in the future with this. The board received another update about the progress of the district’s new website that will tentatively be launched sometime in early 2011. The board reviewed the district’s lunch and transportation programs to see if there are ways for the district to be more fiscally responsible and efficient. The Board reviewed the Regular Meeting agenda items, and such other matters that came before the Board.


Attended Royal View Elementary School Blue Ribbon Celebration on October 8th at Royal View Elementary. Being named as Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education is such a huge honor for our district to receive such national recognition. Royal View was only 1 of 18 schools in Ohio to get such recognition and was also the only school in the greater Cleveland area to be named as a Blue Ribbon School. The celebration kicked off with a whole school march led by members of the North Royalton High School Band & Flag Team and guest parade with students. There were several presentations by various special guests: Superintendent Ed Vittardi, School Board President Len Reinhard, District Director Liz Walters for U.S. Congresswoman Betty Sutton, State Senate Tom Patton, State Representative Matt Patten, North Royalton Mayor Robert Stefanik, and a Representative for Broadview Heights Mayor Sam Alai. I just again want to wish congrats to Principal Dr. Andrea Lasko and all the great teachers and staff at Royal View on this major accomplishment! This was such an amazing celebration!

School Green Team Update
The School Green Team meet on Oct 5th and there was discussion about several district wide initiatives that are occurring or in the planning stages such as the Wind Turbine Project, Valley Vista Nature Center, and various department items. Food Service Department is recycling food containers, and reduced the printing of menus. Maintenance Department there are aerators on majority of water faucets, energy saver motors, watering of athletic fields using well water. Tech Department is purchasing of more efficient monitors. Valley Vista has received a grant for 50 seedlings for planting of trees for Arbor Day. The middle school received a grant from the Cuyahoga County Solid Waste District for $750 and the funds will be used for the purchase of additional recycle containers for the middle school. Some of the building green team goals for the 2010-2011 school year and current initiatives are: Albion- Capri Sun Bag recycle drive, chip bag recycling and monthly theme for recycling. ECC-recycle bins for teachers, Crayon recycling, tip sheets on website on recycling, and recycle scarecrows for Halloween. High School-blue bins in each classroom, applying for Lowe’s for designed containers, and Down Hill Derby with recycle carts.
