Horizons reviewcommittee update

Do you have an individual inyour school district who goes aboveand beyond, and deserves recogni-tion for the outstanding commit-ment they show to the educationcommunity? An individual who has

demonstrated outstanding achieve-ment in implementing technologyto improve K-12 education?

These were the questions askedby the Technology and Innovationin Education (TIE) when lookingfor someone who is worthy to re-ceive the Technology Leadership

Award that was to be presented atthe Annual TIE Conference held inSioux Falls on April 15-17.

Nominations for the award werereceived from school districtsthroughout the state including theKadoka Area School District, whonominated Technology DirectorChad Eisenbraun.

Graduating from Black HillsState University with a businesseducation degree and a minor incomputers, Eisenbraun came to theKadoka School in fall 2001 to teachbusiness and computer classes.

Im not sure what persuaded

me to pursue an education degree,

Ive just always known that I liketo work with kids, Eisenbraunsaid, but I do know it was a goodchoice, because I love to teach.

In July 2009 the opportunitycame for Eisenbraun to fill thetechnology position. Deciding totake the technology director posi-tion was difficult to do.

I love teaching, but I also lovethe challenge of the technology,Eisenbraun said. Having this po-sition has given me both the oppor-tunity to continue to work with somany students, and just not re-stricted to those in my class, but

also to have a leadership role inwhere we go with technology.

While attending Black HillsState University Eisenbraun wasable to gain quite a bit of experi-ence working in the programmingdepartment at the college.

Even though he had a strongfoundation with technical func-tions, learning all the hardwareand networking has been the mostchallenging with this position.

In this position there have beena lot of new challenges. You defi-nitely feel the pressure whentheres a problem and over 400 peo-ple are waiting on you to get itfixed, Eisenbraun said, Luckilyeveryone is very patient. And Ivelearned that if I cant get it fixed, atleast I do know who to contact toget it fixed, he said with a smile.

Although among the challengesalso comes the rewards, which arethe growth and expansions of tech-nology.

Changes with technology cansometimes be a little scary, but thesupport from the community,school board, staff and the studentshas been tremendous, said Eisen-braun. Without all the support,the job would be so much more dif-ficult.

When the district began advanc-ing the technology departmentthere was one computer for everystudent in grades nine throughtwelve. Since then it has broaden toinclude students in grades sixththrough eighth and in the lowergrades, there is one computer forevery two students.

My personal goal is to hopefullysee our district extend and provideone computer to every student fromkindergarten to the senior class.Eisenbraun stated. To help thestudents in the beginning of theireducation and then see them grad-uate and to know they are leavingour school with a good knowledgeof technology and to be able to ef-fectively use it, is very gratifying.

Not only is Eisenbraun able tocontribute to the education of thestudents within the school build-ing, but he is also able to help plant

seeds of growth on the footballfield.

Being the football coach you areable to connect with kids in a com-pletely different manner, Eisen-braun stated. Encouraging themto work hard, seeing them work

through different issues that ariseand then being able to see the les-sons theyve learned on the fieldand apply them to their life, thatswhat its all about.

Winning is great and Ill take awin anytime, but to see the stu-dents grow, it cant get any betterthan that.

Thinking back, I had a teacherin high school who I looked up towith great admiration, said Eisen-braun. He was my computer andbusiness teacher and also coachedus on the football field. And look atme know. he concluded with asmile.

The dedication that Eisenbraun

has shown has truely benefited theyouth, but his concern for the stu-dents is evident by the responseand respect that the student dis-play towards him.

You never know who it will af-fect or when it will happen, you

just want to try to have a positiveimpact, he said. Ive been blessedto have the opportunity to workwith the kids and be a part of thecommunity.

On Tuesday, April 17 ChadEisenbraun was presented the2012 Technology Director award atthe TIE Conference for his commit-ment to education and technology.

Meals forthe Elderly

Read Genesis 25:29-34You probably read the story of Jacob and Esau today

and thought, I can't believe Esau sold his birthright fora bowl of soup. How foolish! But let's think beyondbirthrights and soup. Is there anything of true value

that you are trading for something of l esser worth? In other words, what is your "bowl of soup"?Have you pursued wealth and a career at the expense of family? Maybe your busy schedule has kept

you from spending time with God in His Word each day. Some people become involved in extramarital af-fairs, trading the well-being of their family for the satisfaction of lustful desires. Others sacrifice theirhealth by consuming harmful or addictive substances, or even by overindulging in food. The list of wayswe make foolish, shortsighted choices is endless.

Some of the decisions we make today could rob us of the blessings God wants to give us. When youyield to temptation in a moment of weakness, you're actually sacrificing your future for momentary pleas-ure. We can't afford to live thoughtlessly, basing our decisions on immediate desires or feelings. Since theprinciple of sowing and reaping cannot be reversed, we need to carefully consider what we are planting.The harvest will come, and we'll reap what we have sown--and more than we've sown.

Are you contemplating anything that could have serious long-term ramifications if you yield to theyearning? A wise person evaluates choices by looking ahead to see what negative consequences could fol-

low a course of action. Don't let "a bowl of soup" hinder God's wonderful plans for you.

Sometimes things look com-pletely hopeless or impossible. Ihave a computer game that startsout simple and progresses in diffi-culty. Occasionally I get to one ofthe harder sets toward the end andthink, Not going to happen. Illnever finish this in the allotted

time. Some days I dont and haveto try again. Often that occurswhen Im tired or distracted. If,however, I put my brain in gearand have at it, I can usually windespite my negative attitude. Af-terwards I think, Thats amazing.I never thought I could do it.

Youve all, Im sure, been throughsituations where hope was at aminimum. It might have to do withfamily or financial problems ordozens of other trials and difficul-ties we run into.

Right now, for instance, we arestruggling with our sons health.

As you may know, Chance is autis-tic which means he has littlespeech and cant easily tell us whatis bothering him or where it hurts.Secondly, he has myastheniagravis which is a serious conditionwhere antibodies in the blood in-terfere with messages from the

brain to the muscles. If this goesinto crisis, Chance can experiencerespiratory failure as has hap-pened six times in the past al-though not in the last couple ofyears. During two of thoseepisodes, he quit breathing en-tirely and had to be resuscitated.

As a result, the myasthenianeeds to be controlled with medi-cines which in turn cause prob-lems. They badly compromise hisimmune system so he is a targetfor any bacteria that comes along.This is made worse by the fact thatmany of the common antibioticsare known themselves to putmyasthenia into crisis so theyhave to be avoided. Treatment op-tions are severely limited.

At the moment, Chance is fight-ing about five different bacteriathat are mostly found in sores onhis cheeks and ears. He is on threedifferent antibiotics to try to fixthings. Two of the antibiotics arecrushed and given through hisstomach tube, and the other isgiven in twice-daily shots in therear. It is not uncommon for ourboy to be on two antibiotics at atime, but three seems excessive. Asa result, our doctor feared the goodbacteria in Chances digestive sys-tem would be killed off resulting inproblems there, so he recom-mended giving six ounces of yogurt

daily plus a B-complex vitamin.These, too, are given through thestomach tube.

I probably should mention thatthe myasthenia has messed upChances swallowing mechanismso he is fed strictly through a stom-ach tube with a canned liquid that

is given every four hours aroundthe clock. Medicines, too, cant beswallowed and have to go throughthe tube. One additional complica-tion is that Chance has a trach toavoid breathing shutdown whenthings get clogged with phlegm,even though the phlegm is suc-tioned out several times a day.

At the moment, Chance takesover twenty pills a day. Five or sixare for the myasthenia gravis. Twoare for acid reflux. Eight are forpain, six are antibiotics, and one isa vitamin. Naturally, these allhave to be given on a certainschedule. As a result, by the timeyou give him the food, some water,the pills and the yogurt, it turnsinto a fairly full-time job for wifeCorinne and me. We have to stayright on top of things and keep awritten daily record of what needsto be done and when it was actu-

ally accomplished. If things getany more complicated, well prob-ably have to go to a notebook withbigger pages.

Neither is Chance able to domany other things for himself sohe has to be shaved, bathed andgenerally cared for. Those choresfall mostly to Corinne while I dealwith the ranch and try to keep thehouse stocked with adequate sup-plies.

As you can see, things mightsometimes look impossible. Still,we value our young son since he isa cutie and a sweetheart. We in-tend to keep him with us as forlong as possible. We are even con-sidering making an arduous jour-ney to the Mayo Clinic inMinnesota since our doctor hasrecommended Chance have majorsurgery to remove his thymus.This procedure often puts myas-thenia into remission. That wouldbe a big plus. The trip there looksdifficult to be sure. Around here,though, we can do the difficultright away. The impossible maytake a little longer. After all, Godtells us to think, I can do every-thing with the help of Christ whogives me the strength I need. Healso says, With God, everything ispossible. These assurances makeit worthwhile to give the hope-less and the impossible a try.

Impossible

Lookin Aroundby Syd Iwan

Sad facts of life: Square mealsmake round people.

Sharon Ring accompanied Toreyand the boys to the Long Valleytrack meet on Tuesday. Grandmasmake great cheerleaders andSharon is one of the best.

The James Letelliers made atrip to Kadoka on Tuesday. Theroad construction on Highway 73

makes everyone wonder how longwe will be able travel that way orhave to take another route to town.The guys are really busy right atthe junction, working both direc-tions.

The Norris Township Hall wasabout booked up this week withrummage sales. The Mednanskyshad a taco and rummage sale onWednesday and Ryan and JennyOrrock held a moving rummagesale on Friday. The Orrocks will bemoving to Timber Lake at the endof the school term. We will cer-tainly miss them and hope thatTimber Lake will appreciate themas much as we do.

Thursday, James and MarjorieLetellier hosted a birthday supperfor their granddaughter, AndeeBeckwith. Surprise guests for theChinese buffet were Andees par-ents Paul and LuAnne Beckwith of

Pierre, (who brought the fortunecookies). Julie Letellier of Kilgorealso was a guest. It was a funevening. Oh, to be nineteen again!

The weather was the main topicaround here again this week.Early Friday morning we woke upto the weather radio forecastingthat thunderstorms were headedour way. Shortly after that, we gotrain and hail. We are very gratefulit was small. We have heard re-ports of from two-tenths of an inch

to over two inches of moisture andtwo inches of hail in spots, too. It isthe first time the creek has runover the crossing behind the housewithout filling the ditch in front ofthe house first. One would havethought it had snowed if you didnthear the hail. We had water pud-dles all over the place and the creekis still running. It must have

washed some plowed fields becauseit was the muddiest water you everdid see. We are grateful for everydrop of rain, though and it is earlyenough that the garden will re-cover, but the rhubarb really took abeating.

Our hearts go out to Mary Hein-ert at the loss of her father, BillParnell, of Alva, Wyoming. Folksmay remember, when Everett andMary Heinert lived at Norris andshe taught at Prairie View Schoolmany years ago. May the Lordcomfort you as only He can at thissad time of loss. We will keep youin our prayers.

Maxine Allard is truly enjoyingher many birthday cards she re-ceived. She is opening a few a day,to make the pleasure they bringlast just a bit longer. One sheopened Sunday, brought her a spe-cial thrill since it was from Polly

It was a lovely day, sofriends and neighbors gathered atTafts and helped them get thatmajor project done.

He stayed Thursday withChad and Francie Davis and fam-ily, helped work the yearlings onFriday, and was coerced into re-modeling the upstairs guest bath-room on Saturday out at Bobs.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vil-sack has announced the opportu-nity for producers to enroll a totalof 1 million acres of land in a newConservation Reserve Program(CRP) initiative to preserve grass-lands and wetlands. Vilsack willhighlight the announcement latertoday at the Interior Departmentduring the White House Growing

America's Outdoor Heritage andEconomy conference, which em-phasizes the link between conser-vation and strong local economiesthrough tourism, outdoor recre-ation, and healthy lands, watersand wildlife. The conference has at-tracted boaters, hunters, anglers,farmers, ranchers, land conserva-tionists, historic preservationists,outdoor recreationists, small busi-ness owners, local governments,tribal leaders and others fromacross the 50 United States to dis-cuss ways to spur and support suc-cessful conservation projectsaround the nation.

USDA's CRP has a 25-year

legacy of successfully protectingthe nation's natural resourcesthrough voluntary participation,while providing significant eco-nomic and environmental benefitsto rural communities across theUnited States. Under the Obama

Administration, USDA has en-rolled more than 8 million acres inCRP. The goal of the new CRPgrasslands and wetlands initiativeis to increase enrollment of envi-ronmentally sensitive land throughtargeted signups. USDA's FarmService Agency (FSA), which ad-ministers CRP, will set aside acreswithin the 32-million acre programfor specific enrollments that benefitduck nesting habitat, upland birds,wetlands, pollinators and wildlife.

"By focusing 1 million acres ofCRP on grasslands and wetlands,this initiative will have enormousbenefits for farmers, sportsmen,

and all Americans," said Vilsack."CRP is one of our nation's mostvaluable and vital conservation ef-forts, ensuring cleaner air and

water, preventing soil erosion, andenhancing economic opportunity inrural America by supporting recre-ation and tourism. With high cropprices, this approach to target ourmost sensitive lands is essential ifwe want to maintain the substan-tial benefits of CRP while ensuringthat productive farm lands con-tinue to produce the food and fiber

Americans and the world needs."Rather than wait for a general

sign-up (the process under whichmost CRP acres are enrolled), pro-ducers whose land meet eligibilitycriteria can enroll directly in this"continuous" category at any time.Some of the changes brought on bythe expansion will take place im-mediately and some will be initi-ated in the coming months.Changes include:

New Continuous PollinatorPractice 100,000 additional

acresA new continuous practice to

permit producers to develop polli-nator habitat for many pollinator

species.Increase Acreage for Wetland

Restoration 200,000additional acres

Two practices will expand thatare designed to restore wetlandsthat are both within a 100-yearfloodplain and outside of a100-yearfloodplain. Last year's floods werea strong reminder of the value ofwetlands in absorbing storm waterand slowing run-off.

Restoration of CriticalGrassland Ecosystems

This initiative targets areas thatcan restore important habitats toprotect threatened and/or endan-gered species, candidate species, orspecies of significant social/eco-nomic importance. The restorationwork would be done through thefollowing existing practices andsub-initiatives:

Increase Acreage for SAFE

400,000 additional acresSAFE practices provide the flex-

ibility to meet the specific needs ofhigh-value wildlife species in a par-

ticipating state or region throughhigher-quality habitat. SAFE proj-ects would be developed at thestate and local level.

Increase Acreage for DuckNesting Habitat

150,000 additional acresRestores wetlands and develops

nesting habitat in areas deemed asthe most critical waterfowl areas.Currently, there are 175,000 acresenrolled in this practice.

Increase Acreage for UplandBird Habitat Buffers 150,000

additional acresProvides extremely valuable

habitat for upland birds such asquail and pheasants. Currently,there are 244,000 acres enrolled inthis initiative.Provide Greater Incentives for

Continuous CRPTo encourage producers to sign

up their most environmentallyvaluable acres FSA will increasethe Signing Incentive Payments(SIPs) to $150 per acre from thecurrent level of $100 per acre. The

incentive is offered on most contin-uous practices and will includewetland restorations, pollinatorsand upland bird habitat.

Recently, USDA announced twoadditional CRP sign-ups: a four-week general sign-up beginning onMarch 12 and ending on April 6;and a continuous sign-up forHighly Erodible Cropland begin-ning this summer, which seeks to

protect the nation's most environ-mentally sensitive lands. TheHighly Erodible Cropland initia-tive permits landowners to enrollup to 750,000 acres of land with anErodibility Index (EI) of 20 orgreater.

Currently, about 30 millionacres are enrolled in CRP. Con-tracts on an estimated 6.5 millionacres will expire on Sept. 30, 2012.

Over the past 25 years, farmers,ranchers, conservationists,hunters, fishermen and other out-door enthusiasts have made CRPthe largest and one of the most im-portant in USDA's conservationportfolio. CRP is a voluntary pro-gram available to agricultural pro-ducers to help them useenvironmentally sensitive land forconservation benefits. Producersenrolled in CRP plant long-term,resource-conserving covers to im-prove the quality of water, controlsoil erosion and develop wildlifehabitat. In return, USDA providesparticipants with rental payments

and cost-share assistance. Contractduration is between 10 and 15years. Producers with expiring con-tracts and producers with environ-mentally sensitive land areencouraged to evaluate their op-tions under CRP. Producers alsoare encouraged to look into CRP'sother enrollment opportunities of-fered on a continuous, non-compet-itive, signup basis.

The entire state should celebratethe accomplishments of SouthDakotas top-performing students,Gov. Dennis Daugaard told a roomof high-achieving seniors duringthe 22nd Annual Academic Excel-lence Banquet, held April 30 inPierre.

The event, hosted by AssociatedSchool Boards of South Dakota andsponsored by the South DakotaCommunity Foundation andCitibank, recognizes the top 1 per-cent of the 2012 graduating class.

Each of the states public, privateand tribal schools are asked toidentify one student for every 100graduating seniors.

Gov. Daugaard opened his ad-dress by complimenting studentsfor their hard work and dedication.On behalf of all South Dakotans,congratulations on your accom-plishments, he said. We are very,very proud of you.

The governor invited the soon-to-be-graduates to dream big andsummon the perseverance to followthrough on their aspirations. Youhave the talent and ability to makebig ideas a reality, Daugaard said,adding later that talent, intelli-gence and education mean littlewithout persistence and determi-nation.

Gov. Daugaard called the cele-bration a time for thanksgiving, en-couraging students to recognize allwho have helped them achieve.

The governor credited Americas

commitment to public education; avalue he said was reinforced duringhis recent trip to Afghanistan. Healso said students should be thank-ful to taxpayers who fund thestates public education system andto teachers who help students un-derstand the importance of learn-ing.

Gov. Daugaard stressed thatstudents should also take time toexpress gratitude to their parents,many of whom were in attendancewith the honorees.

Lets thank mom and dad mostof all, he said. They made it allpossible.

Since 1990, ASBSD has askedschools to identify the top 1 percentof the states graduating studentsto be recognized the Academic Ex-cellence Recognition Banquet.Schools are encouraged to choosestudents based on academic crite-ria, such as grade-point averageand scores on college readinesstests. Parents and high school prin-cipals are invited to accompanyeach student to share in the cele-bration. This year, approximately550 students, parents and educa-tors attended the event.

Associated School Boards ofSouth Dakota is a private, non-profit association representingmore than 850 local school boardmembers, the 150 school districtsthey govern and the students theyserve. Our mission is: Partnering.

Advocating. Leading.
