Education in Iowa Public Schools
Dr. Anthony D. Voss, Superintendent of Schools
What's next? Well, the most obvious is increasing class sizes in the elementary and sharing even more positions. Some schools share music and art teachers. I have had several solicitations from neighbors wanting to share these programs over the last couple of years. Any of these actions or those mentioned above will certainly create efficiencies--but very likely at the cost of effectiveness.
We are already on the cusp of a teacher shortage in many areas. Because we are so close to UNI there is a bit of shelter from this shortage. But those Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs that we are sharing that were mentioned above? Part of the reason we are sharing them with other districts is because there are no applicants for our positions. Admittedly it is more difficult to fill part time positions, but if teachers are not doing it for the money it shouldn't matter, right?
So I ask again, would you rather we hire the best teacher we can find, or the one that will work for $28,000? As much as teachers love their work, they are going to be smart about it. If they can do the same job at another school district (or another state) and earn more money, they are probably going to do it. We wouldn't blame them. It is called market demand.
With us now looking at less summer in front of us than behind us, I thought it might be kind of fun to give you an update on the status of a few projects we are currently working on and anticipate having finished by the start of the school year. We'll round out this week's blog with plans for this fall as they relate to staffing levels when the students return.
The most striking and visible project that you have probably noticed is the relighting of the football field. This project replaces the old wood poles and light fixtures that been the mainstay of our stadium for decades. You may recall just a few years back the trouble we had with one of the fixtures on the Southeast pole that had a tendency to blink on and off in the middle of football games! A huge upgrade, this will address safety concerns with the high voltage wires that had draped between the poles and ensure a safer way to light the field. In addition, it will even out the light around the field and increase it to IHSAA standards. The lighting on the field was uneven and in some places as low as 7 foot-candles! The standard for Iowa fields is 30! We anticipate this project will be complete by August 7th.
Less noticeable are some of the upgrades that are occurring inside the school. For example, we have begun to shift more attention to the elementary school this summer as well. The big project that is being tackled right now is the renovation of the restrooms in the 5th and 6th grade wing. All the floor, tile, and ceiling is being replaced along with the fixtures in these spaces. The fixtures are all being replaced with new automatic functionality and ventilation. This project should be finished well in advance of the start of the school year.
The question that seems to be on every ones mind when I am out and about is 'What about the hotel property?" Right now the delay has to do with that little brown shed on the property. That shed is a major hub for Mediacom and needs to be moved before our final work can be completed on the site. We have been working with Mediacom for quite awhile now and are very close to having the site vacated. Interestingly, it is not as easy as you might expect when it comes to moving this shed and equipment. Apparently that little shed is a critical piece of infrastructure for Mediacom and serves as a hub for several cell phone towers and carries data for a multi-county area. At this time, Mediacom has moved and run all the new fiber and re-routed traffic away from the property. All that remains is the termination of these communication cables, which need to be precisely timed during an overnight time frame so as to keep the disruption to service at a minimum. We believe that termination will be taking place sometime this month. Once that is finished the final grading work shouldn't take much longer than 2 weeks. We are still hopeful this can be completed by the time school starts!
At the writing of this blog, we have all our hiring completed for the 2015-2016 school year. Right now we have 42 students enrolled for kindergarten, which we will have staffed with two teachers. We will continue to closely monitor this grade level the same as we have each year, and the school board will make a determination at a later date as to whether or not it is necessary to open another section. This will require very careful consideration since the level of school funding for the 2015-2016 school year was not adequate to cover expenses and the one time infusion of Capital that was agreed to by the legislature was subsequently vetoed by Governor Branstad on July 2nd.
In the final analysis, State Supplemental Aid (SSA) was set at 1.25%, which I have shared before equates to $25,895 for Hudson Schools. To remind you all once again, that doesn't begin to cover the increase in costs that we will incur the next fiscal year. The $55 Million in one-time funding would have added another approximate $70,000+ to our general fund. While it would not have covered our expected cost increase it certainly would have helped. For those of you wondering, we expect our increase in expenditures to be somewhere in the vicinity of $250,000 for the next fiscal year.
Indeed this veto is disappointing. For starters, it is contrary to a bi-partisan compromise that was hammered out between Democrats and Republicans. A compromise that took almost a year and a half of negotiations resulting in the legislative session being drug out much longer than it should have. Yes, this question should have been answered well over a year ago. Further, the question of funding for the next fiscal year was not resolved--and by the time the legislature convenes in January they will be a year late on that decision as well. In his veto message the Governor scolded the legislators for not setting SSA for the next fiscal year. I might suggest the Governor use this opportunity to recall the members for a special assembly. It is clear they have not yet finished their work!
Further perplexing in this decision is the fact that the state's economy appears to be in really good shape. The Cedar Rapids Gazette reported that our state had gross tax collections of $8 Billion for the first time ever. The Revenue Estimating Conference (REC) expected growth at 5.5%, when in actuality it ended up closer to 6%. In their article, the WCF Courier shared that the 'better than average growth was fueled by a 5.8% increase in personal income tax collections'. Arguably, if this news came out after the veto, at least the point could have been made it was tied to the previous and more conservative REC estimate. The timing of the news on gross tax collections coupled with this veto really make me question the wisdom of this decision. It is as though these two (very much related variables) were resolved in a vacuum and became the antithesis of one another.
The Governor suggests a pathway to resolution for the perpetual school funding debate: "The key is to grow the Iowa economy and bring more businesses and jobs here, and higher income to the state", he said recently. Perhaps the fact that revenue projections beat the REC estimate by a half percentage point wasn't quite good enough. Then again, maybe that is why we are investing over $100 Million in a fertilizer plant. When all said and done, they estimate the plant will employ about 240 people.
If we want to bring more businesses and high paying jobs to Iowa, we can start by investing in public education. We would also be quick to remember that in most Iowa communities the local school district is the largest employer, and the jobs that the local school district provide are the economic engine that enables those towns to thrive. Just look what happens when a local school district dissolves or closes an attendance center. That battle was waged not too far from here just this year.
So, here is the deal. Instead of a $100 Million investment that will employ 240 people and produce nitrogen fertilizer, how about a $10 Million investment and we'll employ about 100 people. We'll even provide them with a decent middle income wage to raise a family. No, we won't produce nitrogen fertilizer--but we will educate the populace (and do an outstanding job of it, I might add). That is an investment with dividends that will compound for generations to come.

Quote of the Day: Nene says Wizards' youngsters must get their "heads out their butts"
Nov 14, 2013, 12:37 PM EDT
"They have great players, a great team, but the way they execute things, the way they cut, the way they exploit weaknesses, swing the ball. They don't think about stats. We still think about stats. Our young guys must take their heads out their butts and play the right way, because I'm getting tired of this."
—Nene of the Washington Wizards comparing his team with the San Antonio Spurs, via the Washington Post.
San Antonio's execution and committment to the system frustrates a lot of opponents. Nene was wrong with the statement he made before this that the Wizards have more talent than the Spurs — Tony Parker, Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard are better than anyone on Washington's roster — but the selfless play of San Antonio makes those guys that much more dangerous and hard to stop.
Washington is 2-6 to start the season with a bottom 10 offense and defense. For a team where the owner was demanding the playoffs this season coach Randy Wittman and the front office should be worried. Still, it really comes back to John Wall shooting 37.9 percent this season and how rarely the Wizards are getting to the line.
- moseskkim - Nov 14, 2013 at 1:18 PM
He makes good points but 1. He hasn't been in Washington for that long. Don't see why he's acting like he's the man on the team. 2. He's always injured. He can't even stay healthy for an extended period of time.
- azarkhan - Nov 14, 2013 at 1:25 PM
The Wizards (née Bullets) are a dysfunctional franchise that hasn't been consistently good for oh…about 30 years. My only question is why Nene signed with the Wiz in the first place. Money can't buy happiness.
- moseskkim - Nov 14, 2013 at 1:51 PM
He was traded for javale McGee so didn't have much choice
- redbaronx - Nov 14, 2013 at 2:04 PM
@azarkhan – Nene didn't "sign" with the Wizards. He signed with Denver in 2011 for a five year contract and was traded to the Wizards.
- azarkhan - Nov 14, 2013 at 3:28 PM
My apologies, I didn't realize Nene had no choice in the matter. I don't blame him for being pissed.
- redbaronx - Nov 14, 2013 at 2:14 PM
moseskkim – I'm a Wizards fan and this is Nene's second year. On a team where the longest tenured players are John Wall, Chris Singleton, Kevin Seraphin, and Jan Vessely, Nene has just as much right to speak out. He's a vet player in this league and he's absolutely right. The Wizards need to learn how to play team ball. The attitude needs to start from the top and I don't think we have the right management team, or coach in place to be a winning franchise. Setting a team tone on how to play defensively starts with management vision. We definitely need to borrow a page from the teams that do this well: Indiana, San Antonio, Golden State. Hero ball only works when you have a superstar on your roster.
- kchoya - Nov 14, 2013 at 1:44 PM
That's funny, wasn't "head up the butt" one of the 14 different injuries for which Nene missed time last season?
- peachypete - Nov 14, 2013 at 2:49 PM
Nene had 4 points and 2 rebounds against those Spurs. Maybe he needs to remove his head out of his own butt before he starts damning what other guys are doing.
He's already missed 2 of the Wizards' 8 games. He's been thrown out of another against OKC – they were up 10 with about 3 minutes left when he got tossed, and managed to lose. He's gone 4/10 and 8/14 from the line in the 2 most recent losses before last night's game, and he's a 6'11" PF who gets 5 rebounds a game in 30 minutes. Come on, dude. You have no room to talk. You've been part of the problem this year.
He's an above average player, but he hasn't exactly had a sparkling start to this season, and he's been constantly hurt before this season. He needs to worry about not being so soft around the rim and finishing a few and 1's before he starts calling guys out. That's not being a leader, it's being a punk.
- belleby123 - Nov 14, 2013 at 6:01 PM
What the hell is going on in that locker room?
- lowpostfootwork - Nov 15, 2013 at 2:50 AM
Hard to get your team to act right when you overpay your 2nd best player ( John Wall), while your best player is in his 2nd year and has all the leadership skills you want ( Bradley Beal)
- mdpgc - Nov 15, 2013 at 12:35 PM
NeNe has no room to talk, in the Spur game he had 4pts, was 2-6 from the field, and had 2 Rebs in 25 mins. Hey Nene produce, make the most of your minutes, and then talk.

Washington Post Jul 9, 2015
Earlier this month, when trade discussions between the Washington Capitals and St. Louis Blues heated up, goaltender Pheonix Copley's name entered the fray. "A deal-breaker," one individual with knowledge of the situation later called the 23-year-old prospect's inclusion, because while forwards T.J. Oshie and Troy Brouwer became the marquee, NHL-caliber names exchanging sides, the Blues foremost wanted the emerging Copley in their system.Read full article >>

More burglars dodging arrest
Relevant offers
Burglaries rose in the Waikato last year and fewer of them were solved.
Waikato Police yesterday claimed the calendar year data, released by Statistics NZ , showed small steps in the right direction.
The region's overall reported crime rate dropped 1.5 per cent over 2013.
Acting district commander, Detective Inspector Chris Page, described it as "small steps to success" that continue a downward trend over the past five years.
"This drop represents less victims and comes on the back of last year's drop of 7.5 per cent," he said.
"Across the district the number of murders, assaults, robberies and violent crime all dropped. Other reductions included the number of fraud, drug, weapons and public order offences reported."
Page said the year's number of reported crimes per 10,000 head of population was the second lowest since 1996.
"All this leads me to believe that together, police and the community they serve are working to ensure the Waikato is a safe, family friendly place to be."
Burglary statistics weren't mentioned.
And as Waikato's former district commander Win van der Velde said before he stepped down earlier this year, the region's main problem is dishonesty crime.
Latest data suggests it is getting worse.
Officially, burglaries come under the "unlawful entry with intent/burglary, break and enter" offence type and in 2013 there were 6046 cases reported in the Waikato. Put another way, the figure equates to 16.6 per day. It's also 5.3 per cent more than 2012. Not only were there more of them, but fewer of them were resolved.
A case is considered "resolved" when a suspect appears in court - regardless of whether anyone is actually convicted.
The resolution rate in 2012 was 15.2 per cent and that dropped to 11.2 per cent last year.
Nationally, the number of reported burglaries dropped 1.3 per cent and there was a corresponding resolution rate of 13.8 per cent. Hamilton city was the exception in the Waikato. The number of city burglaries, 3356, was 1.7 per cent down on 2012. However, the resolution rate also dropped from 12.9 per cent to 9.6.
The problems appear worse in rural areas and regional towns. There was a massive 26 per cent increase in eastern Waikato to 1416 and a corresponding drop in resolution rates from 18 per cent to 14.8 per cent. Western Waikato fared better recording a 5.7 per cent rise to 1274. Resolution rates there plunged from 19.4 to 11.5.
Meanwhile, overall recorded crime in the Bay of Plenty fell by 7.4 per cent, following a 7.1 per cent reduction in 2012, making it the lowest crime rate since 1995. All four areas within the Bay of Plenty District recorded a reduction for the first time since 2008.
Rotorua led the way in 2013 with a reduction of 11.2 per cent, followed by Eastern Bay of Plenty with 7.9 per cent, Taupo with 6.6 per cent and Western Bay of Plenty with 4.2 per cent.

Estudio Macías Peredo is led by Salvador Macías Corona and Magui Peredo Arenas and is based in Guadalajara, Mexico. In their lecture as one of the winners of the Architectural League's annual Emerging Voices awards, Corona and Arenas reveal the ways in which the local conditions and building traditions of their country have become creative drivers for their contemporary practice of architecture. They have a shared interest in primitive buildings, seeking to incorporate some of the inherent abstract qualities of primitive structures in ways that address contemporary issues.

Spotlight: Zaha Hadid
Since winning the Pritzker Prize in 2004, the first woman and Muslim to do so, Hadid's career has been on an exponential trajectory. Before the prize, Hadid was better known for her extraordinary sketch-paintings of unbuilt works; particularly, her competition-winning entries for "The Peak" in 1982 and the Cardiff Bay Opera House in 1994. Zaha's "flying" forms were so revolutionary, that some questioned if they could even be made reality - hence why the Opera House was ultimately rejected, for supposed "uncertainties." Indeed, before 1994, the only built project she could boast was the complex, deconstructivist Vitra Fire Station.
ArchDaily Celebrates World Cities Day: 23 Unmissable Articles on Cities and Urbanism
Last year the UN General Assembly issued a resolution to "designate 31 October, beginning in 2014, as World Cities Day." A legacy of the Expo 2010 Shanghai, the first World Cities day is being hosted today in Shanghai, with the aim of focusing on global urbanization and encouraging cooperation among countries to solve and promote sustainable urban development worldwide.
"In a world where already over half the population lives in urban areas, the human future is largely an urban future, said UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, on the importance of World Cities Day. "We must get urbanization right, which means reducing greenhouse emissions, strengthening resilience, ensuring basic services such as water and sanitation and designing safe public streets and spaces for all to share. Liveable cities are crucial not only for city-dwellers but also for providing solutions to some of the key aspects of sustainable development."
To celebrate World Cities day, we've rounded up 23 articles that you can't miss on critical issues relating to our cities, ranging from sustainability to addressing equality and creative solutions for integrating cycling into our cities.

Six Keys to Designing Architecture that Terrorizes
Scaring people is an art, a lucrative art if done right; the haunted house industry makes $300 million a year in the US. Fast Company recently interviewed the designers behind some of the nation's most notorious haunted houses to learn just how to design architecture that truly terrorizes. A hint: Set the stage; reclaim an existing, preferably already "haunted", historic building, add fog, and always "scare people forward." With this in mind, what famous building would you choose to transform into a terrifying haunted house? Let us know in the comment section below and read all of FastCo's design tips, here.
Michael Graves School of Architecture to Open in 2015
Kean University has announced plans to open a new architecture school based on the design philosophy of Michael Graves. Following the footsteps of a man who laments the "loss of drawing," the new Michael Graves School of Architecture will prioritize hand drawings as a key to design process.
"In our technologically savvy world, to this day, Michael Graves' philosophy is to draw by hand first so that the students see, 'feel' and experience the new building spatially. Then, only after the drawing is complete will the students transfer the design to a computer so that the computer becomes an execution tool, not an ideation tool," describes acting dean and former student of Graves, David Mohney.

Preston Bus Station to Become a Youth Centre Under New Proposal
A proposal to ensure the future of Preston Bus Station could see part of the structure converted into a youth centre, as part of a £23 million renovation. The proposal by the building's owners, Lancashire County Council, involves halving the number of bus bays used by the structure to 40, freeing up the western end of the building for other uses, including a sports hall, climbing wall, art centre and outdoor sports pitches.
In addition to the youth centre, the £23 million budget covers renovation to the existing structure and improvements to the surrounding highway. Funding for the proposal will come partly from the council and partly from Preston Youth Zone.

A Little History of Philosophy
Yale University Press, Oct 25, 2011 - Philosophy - 260 pages
Philosophy begins with questions about the nature of reality and how we should live. These were the concerns of Socrates, who spent his days in the ancient Athenian marketplace asking awkward questions, disconcerting the people he met by showing them how little they genuinely understood. This engaging book introduces the great thinkers in Western philosophy and explores their most compelling ideas about the world and how best to live in it.
In forty brief chapters, Nigel Warburton guides us on a chronological tour of the major ideas in the history of philosophy. He provides interesting and often quirky stories of the lives and deaths of thought-provoking philosophers from Socrates, who chose to die by hemlock poisoning rather than live on without the freedom to think for himself, to Peter Singer, who asks the disquieting philosophical and ethical questions that haunt our own times.
Warburton not only makes philosophy accessible, he offers inspiration to think, argue, reason, and ask in the tradition of Socrates. A Little History of Philosophy presents the grand sweep of humanity's search for philosophical understanding and invites all to join in the discussion.

We will definitely recommend garden grocer to others. The food was fresh and healthy and delivered right to our room while we enjoyed our time at a Diney park.
I loved the convenience of Garden Grocer, and since we were flying, it made it a lot easier to not have to take a lot of food with us in our luggage.
Garden Grocer's service was fabulous! Our order was waiting at our resort when we arrived at Disney World. Their communication was great!

Since I always order angels for the girls and snowmen for the boys, by choosing items marked "new," I don't have to worry about duplicates from one year to the next. We've added 2 more girls to the family since last Christmas - our first grandchild in June and a great niece just 10 days ago. I can always count on quality ornaments and great customer service from your site. Thanks again! Sandi R."
6/13/2015 - "The Post Office truck glass ornament is outstanding! It is one of the presents I'm already looking forward to giving on Christmas to my son-in-law who is a mailman. He will love it! I wish all the ornaments could have a choice of hair color. My children are blonde and my son-in-law has black hair. That would be outstanding. Jan A."
9/19/2014 - "This is the second time I have ordered from Ornament Shop. I am very happy with the service I have received. Loretta P."
