The Eveleth-Gilbert

School District is in the first

year of implementation of a

five year strategic plan. One

of the goals for the first year

of implementation is to

provide more professional

development opportunities for the teaching staff. Professional

development for teachers is valued by the district as a means of

empowering staff effectiveness.

Elementary teachers meet in grade level meetings on a monthly

basis. During the grade level meetings teachers examine student

data for the purpose of improving instruction. They share and

discuss interventions they are using to help students who are

experiencing difficulty in learning new skills. They work

cooperatively to develop additional interventions that will

develop, refine, or enhance all students’ skills. At the present time,

district administration are exploring the use of Viewpoint, a data

warehouse, that would make individual student data more readily

available to staff.

Secondary and Elementary teaching staff have participated in

technology training this year. Interactive white boards were

purchased for twenty-one classrooms this year. The teachers

receiving the interactive whiteboards were trained as to how to

use the whiteboards and are now incorporating their use in

classroom instruction. Teachers have found the use of interactive

whiteboards in the classroom increases student engagement. I

encourage parents, grandparents, and other family members to

ask the students if their teacher has an interactive whiteboard and

what they think about it as a means of delivering instruction. It is

administration’s goal to have interactive whiteboards available for

use by all classroom instructors by the 2011-2012 school year.

E-G Senior High

Participates in Robotics

Competition

Students begin taking apart small engine

Nearly a dozen Senior High students will

participate in the FIRST Robotics Competition

mentored by Mr. Tim Strasser. The

competition began on January 8 with a local kick

off event held at University of Minnesota Duluth

Campus.

The FIRST Robotics Competition challenges teams

of students to solve a common problem using a

kit of materials and a common set of rules. The

team has six weeks to build robots from the parts

and compete in games designed by a committee

of engineers and other professionals.

Discovering Small Engines

Everyone will own a small engine at one time or

another and at E-G Senior High there is a class

designed to give the basics of trouble shooting and

general maintenance. The Small Engine class is a two

period class located on the Gilbert Campus.

The purpose of the class is to understand the working

of a two and four cycle engine. Students learn

systems such as: compression, lube, fuel, and ignition.

The projects begin with taking apart two school

engines, one of which includes an overhead valve

engine. Once students have completed working on

the school provided engines, they can bring in their

own projects to work on.

The E-G small engine shop has new equipment a

portion of which was provided by a grant from

Minnesota Power.

Students look on as the instructor

explains the process

It is anticipated that 55,000 high school students

nationwide will participate in this years

competition.

Participation in this robotics competition was

made possible with a grant received by the JC

Penney corporation.


Growing a Salt Crystal Garden

The 8th grade Earth Science class, instructed by Mrs.

Zupancic conducted a Salt Crystal Garden Lab.

On the first day of the experiment, students poured

water, salt, bluing, and ammonia over pieces of sponge.

On the second day salt was added. By the third day,

crystals were beginning to form and students added more

salt, water bluing and ammonia. Food coloring was added

to colorize the salt crystals. Students documented the

changes in the crystal formations after each day.

For complete instructions on growing your own Salt

Crystal Garden, visit the district website at:

MiddleSchool/Pages/JrHighNews.aspx

We have successfully

completed semester one of

the 2010 - 2011 school

year. A lot of exciting things

have been happening on the

Gilbert campus since early

September. I would like to

thank staff, students, and

community members that

have helped this first

semester go so well. The second semester will be very exciting with new

schedules and new opportunities for our students.

One of the great things that happened on the Gilbert campus during

the first semester was an all campus food drive competition put

together by our student councils. The Nelle Shean and junior high

councils set up a giant graph to keep track of food items brought in by

each competing class. They also had individual prize drawings for

students that brought in food items or cash donation, and a pizza party

for the winning class. The students had a lot of fun with it as did the

staff. We were able to deliver 1881 pounds of food and $238 to the

Quad Cities Food Shelf. When we dropped of the items at the food

shelf, a staff member said she believed it was the largest single donation

they had ever received in her 23 years at the food shelf. I would like to

thank Danette Seboe and Jodi Thompson who put this together and

made it possible for our communities. I would also like to thank our

students, parents and staff for being so generous.

Also at the junior high, we had our first Youth Frontiers Courage

Retreat for all students on January 6th

. Our students participated in

activities and discussed the difficult decisions they are faced with

everyday as young people. They also discussed ways to help and

support each other in making the sometimes tough decisions to do the

right thing. At the end of the day our students were asked to write

down one act of courage, on their part, which would make our school a

better place for everyone. They were also given a chance to come

forward to share their act of courage with the entire junior high. I am so

proud of the many students who had the courage to share with the

whole school, and those that didn’t share their act of courage but had

the courage to support those students that did. Thank you again to

Danette Seboe who put this very powerful day together for our staff and

students. Also, thank you to all of the staff members that took such an

active role in the days activities and the senior high students who came

over to be our small group leaders for the day. You were all amazing.

As we look forward to the second half of the year, I would like to put

out a few reminders that will help your students be successful this

coming semester. Don’t hesitate to contact any of the teachers with

questions or concerns. They are here to help and they are very good at

what they do. You may also use the PowerSchool parent portal to keep

up on your student’s progress and attendance. If you do not yet have a

login and password please notify the office and one will be provided to

you.

Thank you all again for a great year to this point. We are looking

forward to the second semester and are hopeful that we will continue to

see parents and community members stopping by to see what’s

happening in our schools. Thank you for your continued support and

efforts to help make our schools the best they can be for our

communities.

NEWS FROM THE FRANKLIN

-By LYNN BOL, Principal

The Franklin students and staff

are adjusting nicely to the new

office. We love the space and

the wonderful sunny side of the

building. Just a reminder you

now enter the building through

the pink doors on both the east

(door 11) and west (door 10) sides.

December was a busy month with classroom craft days,

skating, sliding parties, and the wonderful holiday concert

presented by the kindergarten -3rd

grade classes.

January brings cold days and more snow, but the students

don’t seem to mind they just love to be outdoors and slide.

February is, as always, my favorite, “I Love to READ Month,”

and we have wonderful school activities that challenge the

students and get them reading. We will celebrate the month’s

activities with a magician and carnival for the students. Happy

Reading!!

Applied Learning. Learning By Doing.

The Eveleth-Gilbert 7th

grade industrial technology

students apply the skills they

have learned in class to

construct a Co2 powered race

car. Students use a basswood

car blank to design their car to strict weight and size

specifications.

Students incorporate sketching, drafting,

engineering, physics, and aerodynamic principles in

the construction of their race car. “The students are

excited to learn”, said Mr. Clouse, Eveleth-Gilbert’s

industrial technology teacher. Research shows that

students have greater retention

of knowledge if they apply that

classroom knowledge to real life

applications.

This semester’s winner was

Trent Rolstone with an average

top speed of 123.6 miles per

hour. Thomas Koskela had a second place finish

with an average speed of 120.8 miles per hour.

Flat Stanley Arrives at

Nelle Shean

The Flat Stanley

Project is an

international

literacy and

community

building activity.

Ms. Young’s third

grade class participates in the project each year.

Students first read the book “Flat Stanley” by John Brown.

Then each student chooses a person somewhere in the

world to send their own Flat Stanley to. The friend or

relative keeps Flat Stanley for one to two weeks, designs

him, then sends Stanley back to the classroom with pictures

and different information about their community.

This year, Stanley visited several interesting places like:

different communities in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan,

Texas, Missouri, Arkansas, Indiana, Washington, California,

Florida, Las Vegas, Hawaii, Germany, Spain, and even

Thailand. The students had a great time doing this project.

They really looked

forward to the day that

their Stanley arrived in

the mail.

Once Stanley arrived

back to the classroom,

students shared their

letter, pictures, and

information with the class and made a poster board to

display in the hallway. Not only was this a fun project, but

also a great learning experience for the entire class!

Senior High Update

-By JAN MESICH, Principal

Introducing the Newest E-G School Board Members

I'm Mona Putzel and am a graduate of Eveleth

High School (prior to the consolidation). I've

been married to Frank for almost 40 years

and am a mom and grandma. I have a degree

in business and my background has included

corporate accounting as well as many years as a

public employee. I'm looking forward to the privilege of

working with the other members of the School Board as well

as our entire Administration. My focus is on students,

families and community support. Our staff, at every level, is

the very best. Communication among all stakeholders is

improving and with the addition of Denise Berry as our

primary communications person I'm sure we'll see a

dramatic growth in shared information.

My name is Beth Collins Wedge and I am

one of the new Eveleth-Gilbert school

board members. My husband and I live with

our two sons in Gilbert. I am a graduate of

Eveleth-Gilbert high school and Gustavus

Adolphus College. I am a fifth grade teacher at

Roosevelt Elementary in Virginia. When I am not in

school I like to ski, continue to try to keep my balance

on a snowboard, garden, officiate high school swim

meets, or read. As a former teacher for Eveleth-

Gilbert, I am very excited to be in a leadership role for

our district.

What’s new at EGHS?

Eveleth-Gilbert students

are currently involved in

the FIRST Robotics Com-

petition! Tim Strasser, our

Chemistry/Physics instruc-

tor, has volunteered to

serve as an advisor. The

goal of the program is to inspire students to pursue a career

in science or technology. Students have been given the di-

rective to build a sophisticated robot capable of participating

in a game that changes annually. The main event will be held

at the DECC in Duluth on Thursday, March 10 through Satur-

day, March 12.

The second semester begins on Tuesday, January 25. The

office has been busy as students pick up their schedules and

make preparations for their new classes. Report cards will

be mailed home during the first week in February.

Students will begin registering for 2011-2012 classes during

the first week of February.

The National Honor Society assumed responsibility for

some impressive projects this year. The winter clothing

drive resulted in the delivery of 102 coats to the Salvation

Army. NHS students also volunteer weekly at Willow Wood

(a memory care facility) and help with the Elk-o-Gram for the

Elk’s Club. They will work with elementary students during “I

Love to Read” month and will organize the annual Memorial

Day program. Thank you to Liz Biondich, NHS Advisor, and

her students for the many contributions made to our school

community.

Snow Week is scheduled during the week of February 7-11.

An enthusiastic group of staff and students are working hard

to ensure that this will be the best snow week ever!

Parent-teacher conferences for 7-12 grade students will be

held on February 28 from 3:30 – 7:00 PM in the gymnasium.

Please mark your calendars and plan to attend!


National Education Leader—Youth Frontiers—

Partnered with EG Jr. High on Character Development

Program -By Danette Seboe & Youth Frontiers Staff

To help build a more positive school community, on January 6th

, Youth Frontiers,

the leading character education organization in the Upper Midwest, partnered with

the Eveleth-Gilbert Junior High to host a comprehensive Courage Retreat for the 7th

and 8th

grade classes. Through initiatives that focused on the importance of being

respected and valued, Youth Frontiers delivered a program designed to improve

school climate and strengthen student character, as they have for hundreds of

schools across the country.

For over 23 years, Youth Frontiers’ successful and highly regarded retreats have

sought to teach students how to incorporate the values of kindness, courage, re-

spect and integrity into their personal and school lives. The organization aims to

strengthen core values, confront negative behaviors and enable students to recog-

nize the consequences of their actions. Last year, the nationally renowned, Twin

Cities-based nonprofit held over 600 retreats for more than 90,000 students and

educators. Since its inception, Youth Frontiers has reached more than one million students.

Youth Frontiers staff clearly understand the challenges students face every day in their oftentimes compli-

cated lives. They also know that at the root of one’s character lies values.

“We teach values unapologetically. Our mission is to change the way students treat each other in every hall-

way, lunch line and classroom of every school in America,” says Youth Frontiers Founder and CEO Joe Cava-

naugh, who General Colin Powell has described as “a leader in our nation’s effort to rescue America’s young

people.” Cavanaugh says,” we are not succeeding if our children receive an “A” in Math…and an “F” in life.”

Youth Frontiers offers high-impact retreats for schools, using interactive games, music, small discussion

groups and gripping stories to break down walls between young people, and to help them to see each other

differently. Throughout the retreat day, students begin to exhibit traits of true character – mending relation-

ships, stating acts of courage and respecting themselves and others.

30 Eveleth-Gilbert high school students, all juniors and sophomores, were trained by Youth Frontiers staff to

be small group leaders. These students did a fantastic job of keeping all the junior high students involved and

comfortable. This retreat was a very moving experience for everyone involved, including the high school lead-

ers, staff, and all of our junior high students. (continued on page 11)

Team building activity


At the end of the retreat, students were asked to write down one Act of Courage they would perform that

would make our school a better place. They were then given the opportunity to tell the group what their Act of

Courage would be, by placing a pebble in the pond (every act of courage creates a ripple and stirs up more!).

Many students spoke about not judging others, not making fun of others, not

spreading rumors, and stepping in when they saw bullying taking place.

Throughout the year, our school will have Courage activities that will re-

mind students of the changes they wanted to make in our school and keep

the themes of the Courage Retreat at the front of their minds. Some teachers

will be using activities designed by Youth Frontiers to further the learning and

changing that took place on our retreat day.

We feel we were very fortunate to be able to bring this organization to our

school. This Courage Retreat was very well designed for our 7th

and 8th

grade

students. We spent the morning playing large group games designed to get

the students comfortable taking risks and getting to know their small group and high school leaders. The small

group activities provided a chance for our students to connect with high school students to talk about what

junior high is like, including what is difficult and what they would miss. They talked about their biggest fears

and then focused in on how to address them.

We are so proud of our students and the effort they made during this retreat. The entire 7th

and 8th

grade,

and their 30 high school leaders, spent an entire day in the gym, in groups that DIDN’T include their friends,

and they had a fantastic time. They treated each other with respect, took chances that required courage, and

took a good hard look at how they treat each other during a normal school day. Some of our students took the

opportunity at the end of the day to apologize to their peers for pick-

ing on them or bullying them. Special thanks need to go to the senior

high students who worked hard (and were incredibly successful) to

make sure every student was comfortable and every student partici-

pated.

We look forward to seeing these Acts of Courage happen in our typi-

cal school days and will use what students learned in this experience

to talk through things that come up in school from now on. We expect

that this retreat, combined with ongoing activities and conversations

with each other, teachers, staff, and parents, will decrease the severity

and frequency of bullying and lessen hurt feelings caused by kids who

think they are just “being funny.”

The staff at Eveleth-Gilbert Junior High want all of our students to

feel comfortable in school, to be confident enough to get help when

they are being bullied, to be strong enough to stand up for those who are, and to be courageous enough to

know when they have crossed the line and become the bully. This retreat was a dynamic way to address all of

these things and more.
