Kohler School Foundation grants $73,500 to district Submitted by the Kohler School Foundation Often, the Kohler School Foun- dation is asked where the funds they raise go. Whether $10 or $10,000 is received from a donor, the goal of the Foundation is to continue to bring meaning to its benefactors and value to the dis- trict. Over the past six years, the An- nual Fund has been fed primarily through the Fall Follies – the Foundation’s annual fundraising event. The growth of this event di- rectly impacts the growth of the opportunities the district can offer to its students and faculty. Generally, the Foundation looks directly to the District Administra- tion for initiatives that would oth- erwise not be met by the budget. Working together with the staff, a grant proposal is submitted by the district with initiatives that follow the strategic direction of the school. Some of these campaigns are larger capital planning items, but no request is too small. While the Foundation entertains many types of requests, grant pro- posals have recently been centered around benefiting a larger number of students, providing resources that enhance the student body’s ac- ademic experience, and generating momentum of the district. “In the past, technology has been a large component of the Foundation’s grants,” said Marlene Yang, Presi- dent of the School Board. “By being connected through the world of smart boards, overhead projec- tion units and distance learning, the district is able to offer the stu- dent body more. It provides addi- tional options for the staff to teach in an engaging, visual way.” But technology is not the only piece emphasized. “The Kohler School Foundation also looks at areas where they can help the whole stu- dent. It’s important to understand that students coming from Kohler Schools develop character, well- ness, and leadership in addition to academics. The Foundation allows the means to help promote pro- grams that support these areas in addition to technology, said Yang” In total, funds granted in the past year were estimated at $73,500. The grant to the district has not gone unnoticed. “The support of the Foundation has allowed us to do things above and beyond what a typical public school is able to do,” said Quynh Trueblood, Super- intendent of Kohler School Dis- trict, “I really believe that by continuing to provide these oppor- tunities to our students, they, in turn, will continue to flourish after graduation. The grants over the past few years have also helped re- tain our resident students and at- tract new students to our schools; something that is important to our district’s success.” Kohler School Foundation out- going board member and long- time resident, Carol Grover, sees another benefit to the grants. “The support of the entire community is just great. There is so much tradi- tion behind Kohler Schools. There’s always been a spirit of community support. The Fall Fol- lies is the just perfect place for people to gather together and con- tribute in some way. All of the donors can feel really good about supporting what’s been so impor- tant to the kids over the years, said Grover” The seventh annual Fall Follies will be held Friday, October 11, 2013, at the American Club.

By Kip KorossI just returned from Kenya three

days ago where I was able to spendsome special time with my mom aswell as the rest of my family. It wasseven years ago when I last visitedKenya and so much has changed.Technology has really helped im-prove people’s lives as well as theeconomy despite the corruptionsthat do exist within the country.The most noticeable form of tech-nology is the use of cell phones. Tomy surprise, almost everyone has acell phone, including those whocan barely afford something to eat.Some people are more likely tospend money to buy more air timethan buy food. The advantages ofthe cell phones are that more peo-ple in the rural areas where the reg-ular telephone lines had not arrivedare now able to communicate withrelatives around the country andoverseas. They don't have to senda child to the next village to delivera message to someone or stand ontop of a hill to shout loudly to getsomeone's attention on the otherside.

The only disadvantage, is thefact that more families are not vis-iting each other as often as it usedto be because they can now simplypick up the phone and talk insteadof physically being there to meet inperson. Though I had not seen mymom in seven years, I had beenable to communicate with her moreoften than before. This is becauseshe now owns a cell phone whichshe wears around her neck just likea necklace. She feels so connectedto it that she feels very uncomfort-able if she happens not to have it.In the past she had to travel to thenearest town to book a telephoneline so that we can communicate.This was more challenging be-cause everything had to be organ-ized by the way of post office(snail mail) before telephone con-tact could be made.

I come from an area called theCherangany Hills, located in theGreat Rift Valley region in Kenya,where electricity has yet to beavailable for everyone in the ruralareas where my family lives. Somy main project this time during

my visit was to install solar pow-ered electricity to my mom’s houseto supply mainly lights and powera television. This worked out sowell that I wished I had done thismuch earlier because it is makingsuch a difference in the quality ofher life and for those living withher. There are so many things herethat we take for granted and forgetto appreciate until we experiencewhat it is like not to have it. For thefirst time, my mom can now walkin the house at night and flip aswitch on for lights instead oflooking for the kerosene lamps tolight! Some of my brother’s kidsstaying with her will now be ableto study better with brighter lightsthan ever before. I am hoping thatthis will start a trend within the vil-lage and more people will acquirethe solar energy to supply theirelectricity. My next project is tofind out how to generate enoughelectricity via solar for cooking in-stead of using firewood to cook.Now you know why I always say Icome from the bush, bush!

Kyle McGilligan-Bentin, highschool English teacher

I would like to begin by thank-ing the community for being sup-portive and welcoming in my first

year at KohlerHigh School.I hail fromMadison, WIwhere mymother was ane l e m e n t a r yschool teacherand my father

a school counselor. I decided to at-tend the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and I immediately choseEnglish-Education. At La Crosse,I was heavily involved in the stu-dent newspaper, educational lead-ership organizations, and enjoyedthe natural surroundings of theCoulee Region. After graduation,I worked at a small charter schoolnamed Community High School inMilwaukee. During that time, Igained valuable experience anddeveloped the educational philos-ophy that I utilize today. I main-tain my alliance with theUW-Milwaukee Writing Project (apartner of the National WritingProject) and continue to work onmy Masters degree in Writing.

Personally, I still reside in Mil-waukee and enjoy reading, goingto shows, and spending time at thelakefront. I enjoy traveling andhave been to Costa Rica, Toronto,and San Francisco in the last cou-ple of years. I plan on going toRussia this next year, and I enjoyspring breaks in South Floridawith my parents. Besides both ofmy parents working in education,one of my brothers is an elemen-tary school teacher in Elkhorn,Wisconsin, and my eldest brotheris an elementary educational assis-tant in Madison. My girlfriendand I have been together for threeyears and she recently took a posi-tion as the Director of Diversity(and School Counselor) at DivineSavior Holy Angels High Schoolin Milwaukee.

The first year at Kohler was anexciting one. My best memorywould have to be when RachelMaggi and Sam Dedek ambushedme with Silly String while I wasteaching. Year two brings a newset of challenges and I am reallylooking forward to teaching ourlatest UW-Madison collaborationbook entitled Snow.

Teaching is my passion. Again,I thank the students, the parents,and the various community mem-bers that have made my transitioneasier and have welcomed me intothe Kohler family. I cannot waitfor my second year.Chef Jeff Mallegni

My name is Jeff Mallegni and Iam entering my second year asChef/Manager for Kohler Public

Schools. I ammarried, have anine month oldbaby girl andtwo border col-lies. My familyloves spendingtime in the greatoutdoors. We

hunt, fish, camp, hike and enjoynature as much as possible. My lit-tle girl makes my day every day.

I received my education fromMilwaukee Area Technical Col-lege where I completed an associ-ate degree in Culinary Arts inDecember of 2005. Since then Ihave continued my education withLakeland College where I receiveda bachelor degree in HospitalityManagement in May of 2013. Ihave cooked in fine dining restau-rants in both Milwaukee andElkhart Lake. I also have fouryears of cooking experience inCollege dining and have manageda nine-hole golf course and restau-rant in Manitowoc.

I thoroughly enjoyed my firstyear with Kohler Public Schoolsand have had the opportunity towork with students, faculty, andparents who were involved withvarious fundraisers, banquets, andevents that required my culinaryinput. I look forward to continuedpartnership with the Kohler PublicSchools community and am ex-cited to begin a new year, intro-ducing new foods and flavors withpassion and excitement. Ryan Miller, TechnologyCoordinator

I graduated from the Universityof Wisconsin-La Crosse where Ireceived my BS in Information

Systems in May2012. My firstyear with Kohlerhas been a re-warding chal-l e n g e .Throughout myfirst year I have

had the opportunity to meet andlearn about my fellow colleaguesand the wonderful students. It iswithout a doubt that we have someof the best students and teachers inthe state! The most rewarding ex-perience I've had during my firstyear is the progression in technol-ogy I've had the opportunity to cre-ate. I'm looking forward to the startof the 2013-2014 school yearwhere our new technology can beused to accommodate the growingneeds of 21st century learning andinstruction.

When I'm not in school mode Ienjoy spending time with my fam-ily and friends. Lately, I've takenup spending more time outdoors.Nature has helped me to relax andenjoy the beauty of Earth that wesometimes take for granted.Cindy Payne, special education director

I am a strong advocate ofpublic education and believestrongly in utilizing best practicesto ensure high quality instructionfor all students. One of my fa-vorite Vince Lombardi quotes thatI believe applies to school im-provement sums up my vision forthe Kohler Public Schools: “Per-fection is not attainable. But if wechase perfection, we can catch ex-cellence.” I look forward to agreat year in Kohler and getting toknow your children and commu-nity. Matthew Poytinger, high schoolSocial Studies teacher

I grew up in Waukesha, Wis-consin and attended elementary,middle, and high school in the

Waukesha Pub-lic Schools.After graduat-ing fromWaukesha Westhigh school in2000, I attendedthe University

of Wisconsin-Waukesha and com-pleted three years of undergradu-ate coursework before transferringto the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. In 2005, I graduatedfrom Whitewater Magna CumLaude with a BS in History and aGeography minor. Upon gradua-tion I enrolled at Cardinal StritchUniversity to complete my teach-ing certification. I received myteachers’ certification in 2007 andreturned to Cardinal Stritch tocomplete my Masters of the Arts inTeaching in 2009.

I have spent the last five yearsteaching at a small charter schoolin the Milwaukee Public Schools.While at Community High SchoolI was able to develop my teachingstyle and grow as a professional. Iam extremely proud to have beenso influential in the transformationof young students with difficultbackgrounds, helping them toreach their goal of attending col-lege. For students to be successfulin social studies, I believe theyneed to be challenged by the cur-riculum, but also connect whatthey are learning to the worldaround them. This philosophy isthe foundation of my teaching andhas served students well over thelast five years.

Although teaching is one of mygreatest passions, I also enjoyphysically challenging myself. Ienjoy exercising in my free timeand will often sign up for various5k races in the summer. Over thelast two years I have trained andcompleted two sprint triathlons.

As much as I enjoy exercising,nothing makes me happier thantailgating at Miller Park with myfriends and family. This past sum-mer I have attended almost 20baseball games. I love beingaround baseball so much that Icontinue to play in a 28 and olderbaseball league on Sundays.

As a new teacher to the KohlerSchool District I am excited tomeet the students, staff, faculty,and parents. I am very excited tobe part of the Kohler communityand look forward to teaching ourstudents.

Stacy Rozmarynowski, highSchool English teacher

I remember my parents dress-ing my sisters and me in the latestBrady Bunch fashion when we

were youngchildren. Thatis to say, wewent out inpublic allwearing thesame colorsand patternswith only

slight variations in style. It wasembarrassing . . . yet, somethingwas clearly defined when we trav-eled together. Family. Like ourclothing, we all matched. There isno doubt we had differences, but itwas clear we had all come fromthe same cut. If either I or one ofmy two sisters drifted away duringour walks at the zoo, park, or mu-seum, we simply examined thelandscape for our bright matchingpatterns amongst the manytourists. So often, I recall, I wouldhear people murmur, “Look at thatcute family and their matchingoutfits.” What may have seemed abit strange and annoying when Iwas a child is a memory that I,today, cherish.

It is safe to say that I have con-tinued my parents’ legacy of keep-ing my family close, although myhusband, daughter, and I do notdress in late 70’s and early 80’sgaudy getups! Whether intentionalor not, we do seem to go out in thesame colors when playing volley-ball or going golfing together. Wealways find each other quite easily.I am truly blessed to have had atight knit family growing up andone today. Every aspect of my liferevolves around the solid truth thatfamily is most important. There-fore, when I change hats frommother, to spouse, to sister, toteacher, to friend, to co-worker andso on, it is always the familial con-nection I seek. I am lucky to con-tinue adding Kohler students andcommunity to my extended family.With each new encounter and ex-perience at Kohler Public Schools,I’ve added a little more color, anew pattern, or a different cut tomy line. I cannot thank youenough for allowing me to remaina part of your close and caringfamily.Pamela Salm, high school Science teacher

Hello, my name is PamelaSalm. I am currently teaching 6thgrade science for the Kohler

School District. I hold a bachelorof science in Bi-ology, Chem-istry andPhysical Educa-tion, and a Mas-ter of Arts inSport Science

(Exercise Physiology). I havemany years of teaching experienceat various levels, including middleschool, high school, university,and adult education. I have alsocoached a variety of academicteams such as Solarwise, RubeGoldberg, and Science Olympiad;as well as athletic teams, includingswimming, volleyball, track andsoftball. Teaching has been an as-piration of mine since youth, whenI volunteered as a communityplayground supervisor, taughtswimming lessons and coachedyouth teams. My educationalgoals are to stimulate and motivatechildren and young adults to dotheir best; develop an understand-ing of and appreciation for sci-ence; become lifelong learners andto mold critical thinkers and prob-lem solvers.

In my spare time, I spend manyhours at my children’s soccergames and road races. Our familyenjoys recreational and competi-tive sports (soccer, tennis, swim-ming, running) and spending asmuch time as we can in nature.Over the past ten years, we havehiked in Yellowstone NationalPark, the Badlands, and TheodoreRoosevelt National Park, and sum-mitted mountains in the GrandTetons, Rocky Mountain NationalPark, Glacier National Park, andColorado State Forest. Our mostrecent adventure was hiking in theSierra Nevada’s at Inyo NationalForest (CA) and body surfing atManhattan Beach outside of LosAngeles. After being re-energizedin the great outdoors, I am lookingforward to a stimulating and pro-ductive 2nd year at Kohler MiddleSchool. John Wheeler, high school artteacher

I’ve been a serious Artist sincemy grandfather taught me how topaint when I was very young. I

went on to pursuemy passion forcreation at theMilwaukee Insti-tute of Art andDesign, where Iattained a Bache-lor of Fine Arts’

degree. My mom, who was ateacher for thirty years, often de-scribed her long career in educa-tion as a ‘calling.’ I heard thatsame call, attending the Universityof Wisconsin-Stout, where I ob-tained a Bachelor of Science inEducation degree. Now, I live inthe idyllic community of Kohlerwith my very creative wife, An-gela and my tremendously inquis-itive son, Nico, who will beattending school for the very firsttime this year. I feel very privi-leged to have the opportunity toshare my love of art with my stu-dents and my community.
