The 2016-2017 Budget has been approved

and submitted. If you read the local paper,

you noticed the 2016-2017 Budget

Summary and Tax Request form. The tax

rate for the year totaled $.573, .55 cents

for operating the General Fund, .0098

cents into the Qualified Capital Purpose

Undertaking Fund K-12, and .0061 cents

into the Special Building Fund. For 2015-

2016 we were operating at $.576, .56 cents

for operating the General Fund, .010 cents

into the Qualified Capital Purpose

Undertaking Fund K-12, and .006 cents

into the Special Building Fund.

As Board of Education members continue

strategic planning or facility planning,

short-term and long-range, building

projects will continue to be addressed each

year by use of the Special Building Fund

monies or Depreciation Fund monies.

Striving to provide our students with a

quality education in a safe, secure,

respectable building/facilities is the goal.

Most importantly, educational programs

are continually evaluated and assessed to

assure students are receiving the best

possible education. Allocating money to

these programs is the foundation of the

finance pyramid. Through careful

planning, we are cognizant of the taxpayer

dollar setting the levy based on need…the

need to continue providing a quality

education and maintaining financial

stability of the district.

As last year, we levy money into the

Special Building Fund. The additional

monies are needed for facility needs/

upgrades. This past summer we replaced

the squeaky theater seats and worn carpet,

ridding ourselves of the blue/green color

of the 70’s. We added handicap parking

south of the football stadium and also

Career Pathways Update

Career Pathways is rolling here at

Sutton High School. Currently, we

have 16 students in our Career Prep

class and 5 students in our Internship I

class. For students to be in the

Internship I class, they have to

complete a career pathway and the

career prep class. Students in the

Career Prep class have been working

on items such as resume writing and

interview skills. Students in the

Internship I class have been out in the

community doing job shadows in a

career of their choice and interest. The

interests of this current class

include: education, the health field,

animal science, & media. We are

excited about the opportunities these

job shadows will provide for our

students and their futures. We also

thank the businesses for opening their

doors and areas of expertise.

School Safety

Drug Dog: A responsibility of schools

across the nation is to be sure that when

students attend school, they do so in a

safe environment. Schools are

protecting against fires, other weather

related storms, and practicing a variety

of lockdown procedures to ensure

student safety. They are also protecting

their campuses and students from the

presence of drugs.

Sutton Public Schools is no different

than these schools in working to protect

their students from all of these

elements including drugs and drug

use. One of the ways in which schools

protect against drugs in schools is by

using a drug dog or having a canine

inspection to be sure the school

environment is clear of any potential

drugs. These types of inspections

allow the dogs an opportunity to

practice their skills and to work in

cooperation with our local law

enforcement.

Per the Sutton Public Schools Jr./Sr.

High Student/Parent Handbook page

12:

Canine Inspection: The school

principal may within the scope of

district policy and regulation and

without advance warning other than

this clause, employ the use of specially

determining the presence of illegal

drugs or contraband on school

grounds, whether in a desk, student

locker, vehicle, or any other place on

school grounds including any and all

student book bags. Any illegal drugs

and or contraband discovered pursuant

to such inspections or searches shall be

confiscated and turned over to law

enforcement authorities.

We want to do our best to ensure safety

for all students and to deter any type of

criminal action students may be

engaging in or choosing to engage in to

protect everyone’s future. Drug dogs

may be welcomed multiple times

during the school year. Student and

building safety procedures will be

practiced throughout the school year.

It has been a great start to the

2016-2017 school year. All of our

classroom teachers are back from last

year. We did welcome three new

paraprofessionals to our staff: Lorraine

McLaughlin, previously worked at

Harvard Public Schools, Cathy Gibbs,

and Stacy Heredia. These three have

been a wonderful addition to our

staff. Cathy and Stacy are new to

working in a school, but have done

well in making the adjustment.

As we continue to work hard to

meet the learning needs of our students

and to stay up to date with the ever

changing expectations of our students,

we have adopted a new elementary

Social Studies curriculum that better

aligns to the current Nebraska State

Social Studies Standards. K-6th grade

will be using a curriculum program

called My World. This new program

incorporates more technology to

enhance student’s understanding of

maps and historical events and

people. The upper elementary students

can access the online content by

signing onto their PowerSchool

account so it allows for them to extend

their learning at home if they so

choose.

On Friday, October 7th, we

will be hosting grandparents day. It is

so wonderful to have so many friends

and family members here at

school! We are busy preparing for the

program so it should be a fun day for

everyone. Here is the schedule for the

day:

Lunch will be served to K-6 students

and guests in the elementary gym.

The day will be scheduled as follows:

10:00 – 10:30 = Seating in the theater

will begin after 10:00 a.m.

10:30 – 11:15 = Program in Theater

11:15 = Kindergarten and first grade

will eat lunch, and then go to their

rooms to get the rest of their schedule

from their teacher. As soon as all

kindergarten and first grade students

have left the theater, all other grades

will be dismissed. The teachers will

decide when they will have room time,

and when they will be outside at recess.

All teachers will remain with their

students, (inside or out).

11:30 = 2nd gr. go to the gym for lunch

11:45 = 3rd gr. go to the gym for lunch

12:00 = 4th gr. go to the gym for lunch

12:15 = 5th gr. go to the gym for lunch

12:30 = 6th gr. go to the gym for lunch

1:00 = Program ends; students return to

regular classes

Following grandparents day on Friday,

October 7th, we will be having our

annual fun run. This year it will be the

Neon Flash Dash. The run will start at

2pm that day. This is a way to promote

Travis Lockyer, Elementary Principal

healthy habits and to continue to

encourage physical exercise as a way to

be healthy.

We will have two separate

winter concerts on the same day

again. The concerts will be on

Monday, December 12th. The first

concert will be for grades Kindergarten

through 3rd starting at 6:30pm. There

will be a brief intermission for K-3rd

grade families to leave and for 4th-6th

families to be seated. The 4th-6th

grade concert will start at 7:30pm. We

also have an afternoon matinee on the

12th with K-3rd performing at 1pm and

the 4th-6th performing at 2pm. I appreciate the wonderful

support of families. We have had a

great start and want to continue to

make it a great year. Thank-you!

Grandparents/Special Friends Day is set for Friday, October 7, 2016. The festivities begin at 10:30 a.m. with a music performance in the theater, followed by lunch and recess. Grandparents/Special Friends day will end at 1:00 p.m.

Following Grandparents Day, kindergarten—6th grade will have a Fun Run which will start at 2:00. School will be dismissed at 3:25. This fun day is limited to two adult guests per student.

Last spring, Sutton Public School took

its inaugural trip with Close Up to

Washington D.C. and New York City.

Eight students were able to take ad-

vantage of the trip and bring home last-

ing memories and unique opportunities

that the average traveler to the nation’s

headquarters would not. The next trip

to D.C. and NYC will not take place

until March 2018, but I would like to

get planning underway and information

out there to the families of our current

sophomores and juniors.

There will be an informational meeting

on Wednesday, November 16, 2016, at

7:00 pm in Mr. Kuntz’s classroom.

This meeting is not a commitment, but

a chance for me to show you the op-

tions that this trip holds for your child.

Eight students went on our inaugural

Close Up trip and each of them had a

great experience. I’ve been on four

Close Up trips as an advisor and each

one continues to get better. I asked

some of them to give me a short review

of their trip and here is what they said:

“Close Up was one of the best experi-

ences of my high school career, and

honestly my life.

The Close Up

representatives

and government

officials that we

met were happy to explain things to

you more specifically.”

Jeremiah Urbauer, Senior

“Close Up is a fantastic way to experi-

ence something different that can only

be learned by being there. This unique

experience was a life changer and

opened up my world on how each place

is completely different than Nebraska. I

was able to enjoy the many sights and

views along with the social interactions

of others from over the United States.

This was definitely a game changer for

me and I recommend going!”

Ryan Ochsner, Senior

“In no other organization could you

experience so much in such a short

time. Close Up puts you into a history

book. You’re seeing, touching and wit-

nessing real life things you’ve only ev-

er seen in a text book. It’s truly an ex-

perience you’ll never forget.”

Emily Overturf, Senior

“Close Up was such an amazing expe-

rience. Debates also made me think

outside the box. With kids from all

Oct/Nov 2016

over the United States, I gained a new

perspective on different topics. I also

learned a different kind of teamwork.

Rather than learning to have chemistry

on a court or in a field, I learned that

sometimes your opinion isn’t the only

opinion, or even correct. I couldn’t

wrap my mind around that, when at the

Lincoln Memorial, I was standing

where the famous Martin Luther King,

Jr. gave his “I have a Dream” speech or

meeting the guy who was my answer to

all government-based questions, Adrian

Smith. I can still hear the sound of the

trumpet, the same trumpet that plays in

all the war movies at the end when

someone has died, playing at the Ar-

lington Cemetery. I was also super sat-

isfied with the fact that our super cool

teacher took us to the DC Zoo and I got

to see pandas, my favorite animal, for

the first time. Going on Close Up was

not only about the experience or the

knowledge, but also about the awesome

friendships I made. We were an odd

group with a couple of farmers, some

athletes and speechletes, but I made

some good friendships. People I had

never had a real conversation with were

now people I laughed and shared so

many good memories with.”

FCCLA Fall Leadership Workshop

Sutton FCCLA officers recently attended the

Nebraska Family, Career and Community

Leaders of America Fall Leadership

Workshop. This annual event was held in

Kearney, and featured over 485 students from

all corners of Nebraska. A highlight for

students was hearing from keynote speaker,

Rhett Laubach. An Oklahoma native, Rhett

spoke on the importance of finding

opportunities to serve and taking advantage of

them. He emphasized that Career and

Technical Student Organizations like FCCLA

are poised to “live to serve” and provide for

those around them. That message was at the

heart of the leadership training provided as

well. Sutton officers who attended the workshop: Tanna Eggers, Dylan Christ, Jenna Nuss, Alejandro Alarcon, Lydia Rogers

and Caitlin Griess.

Chapter will be holding a Pink Out in support of

those suffering with cancer. Students and fans are

encouraged to wear pink to the game and buy raffle

Grace Foundation.

The Clay County Health Department will be at Sutton Public

School on Wednesday, Oct. 12th from 3:00—5:00p.m in the

nurse's office to administer flu shots. They can bill Blue Cross/

Blue Shield insurance and can also bill those with Medicare.

Bring your cards with you at this time. Forms are available in the

nurse’s office if you wish to fill them out ahead of time. The cost

without insurance is $30. Flu shots offer protection to teachers,

students and help prevent passing along the flu to co-workers and

children. The Centers for Disease Control recommends everyone

from age 6 months on get the flu vaccination. For more

information, contact the Clay County Health

Dept. at 402.762.3571.
