June 2017, Director’s Report

The purpose of Nerstrand School is to provide a warm, nurturing, joyful environment filled with curiosity and celebration.

Our mission is to empower students to be self-directed, lifelong learners by providing a nurturing, multiage environment that fosters cooperation and

character development.

Authorizer Update

I attended the NEO Celebration of Leading and Learning Luncheon on May 22nd. We received the Stewardship Award for Finance again. Thank you to Keith Johnson for keeping us financially sound for so many years.

Personnel Update

We hired a new kindergarten teacher, Gretta Kunze, at the end of May. Gretta has been working with young children for 9 years. She has a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education (K-6) with an additional Pre-Primary Licensure and has also completed her Reading Specialist Licensure Program. She most currently taught as a School Readiness Teacher in Cannon Falls. We are very excited to have Gretta join our staff.

Thank you to our wonderful hiring committee that put a great deal of time into this search. The committee consisted of parent, Erynn Anderson, teachers Paula Shroyer and Jan Boudreau and kindergarten para, Amy Harris.

Annual Retreat-August Board of Directors’ Meeting

Annual Special Education Retreat has been scheduled for August 22nd at Carleton College, 8:30-2:30. Board of Directors Meeting to follow begins at 3:00 pm.Special thanks to Jan Boudreau for working to organize the retreat and arrange presenters.

Student Performance Results

As part of compliance requirements from MDE, the Reading Well by Third Grade report was submitted to the state last week. The results show end of year reading assessment for students in grades K-3. The following table shows a comparison between the 2016 and 2017 reports.

PRESS Leaders Cohort

I am very excited to let the Board know that Jan Boudreau and I have been accepted into the PRESS Leaders Cohort. The PRESS Leaders Cohort is a professional learning opportunity designed to help school leaders implement PRESS successfully.

PRESS (Path to Reading Excellence in School Sites) is an intervention program designed through the University of Minnesota. We are in our third year of implementing this program to help students become stronger readers.

Partnering with The Big Woods

Our school is fortunate to be so close to the Big Woods, but transportation to the woods is expensive. We are exploring ways to get students to the Big Woods more frequently. I would like to see a stronger partnership with the DNR, to add more environmental learning to our curriculum.

I have been in contact with Josh Ramaker, SHIP (Statewide Health Improvement Partnership) Coordinator for Rice County Public Health to see about using bikes to get to the park. We are also interested in looking into purchasing a small bus/van to transport students to and from the park.

Director Evaluation

Domain 5: School Climate, subset 2 states: The school leader has the trust of the

faculty and staff that his or her actions are guided by what is best for all student

populations.

1. In May the annual staff survey was conducted. The survey is conducted

on Survey Monkey using a five point scale of Strongly Disagree, Disagree,

Don’t know, Agree and Strongly Agree.

On the survey, Q10 stated: The administrative team approach is working

well at our school. 50% strongly agreed, 37.5% agreed and 12.5% felt

they didn’t know.

Q2 stated: The school’s program and operations are faithful to the

mission and vision: 60% strongly agreed, 40% agreed.

Domain 5: School Climate, subset 3 states: The school leader ensures that

faculty, staff, students, parents and the community perceive the school

environment as safe and orderly.

1. On the staff survey Q 12 stated: The school atmosphere is conducive to

learning. 54.17 strongly agreed, 45.83% agreed.

Page 7: Nerstrand Elementary School will empower students to be self … · 2017-06-22 · School Readiness Teacher in Cannon Falls. We are very excited to have Gretta join our staff. Thank

2. Q 13 stated: Nerstrand Elementary School is a safe environment.

79.17%% strongly agreed, 20.83% agreed.

3. On the Parent Survey Q12 states: My child feels safe at Nerstrand

Elementary School. 64.10% strongly agreed, 34.62% agreed.

4. On the Parent Survey Q17 states: There is a positive sense of school

community at Nerstrand Elementary School. 61.54% strongly agreed,

35.90% agreed and 2.56% didn’t know.

As I complete my second year as Director, in particular I want to thank Barb Grote, Jan

Boudreau, Keith Johnson and Lori Amy for guiding and supporting me. Having their

support and perspectives has been essential in the success of these last two years.

There was not a day that went by that I didn’t reach out to one or all of them. I am so

very grateful.

On a daily basis I feel so impressed with our staff and this school for the work that we

do and the spirit in which we do it. Thank you to our wonderful staff and families!

Thank you also to the Board of Directors for your support this past year. I do not take

for granted the trust you have given me.

It is always with great pride I tell people I work at Nerstrand School.

Respectfully submitted,

Maggie Kiley
