pleased with

Proposed hikes next year in
health care costs for Oregon
School District staff were
rolled back last week by the
Oregon School Board.
District officials earlier this
month worried union lead-
ers with a proposal to impose
new health care deductibles
of $500 annually for individu-
als and up to $1,000 for fami-
lies while requiring higher
co-pays on prescription drugs,
emergency room visits and
CT or MRI scans.
But in a special meeting
last Thursday, the board vot-
ed 5-0 to dip into a district
reserve fund to reimburse

Seth Jovaag
At first glance, it might
appear that 75 sixth grad-
ers i n t hree adj oi ni ng
classrooms at Rome Cor-
ners Intermediate School
are slacking off.
One student lies under a
table with headphones on.
Another group of four girls
is talking at a table, note-
books and books spread
out. Others are clustered
on the floor, and a cou-
ple of boys are relaxing
in beanbags in a corner.
Almost all of them are tap-
ping at iPads.
But if you talk to kids in
Terra Cotta 1, the cluster
of classrooms that spent
this school year experi-
menting with one-to-one
computing, youll hear a
different story.
Theres always some-
thing to work on, said
student Ashton Wenger,
displaying a checklist of
assignments on her iPad.
You can work on what-
ever you feel like working
on, or if youre behind on
something you can catch
up.
The pilot program at
RCI has received a lot of
attention this year, as it
represents a new way of
personalizing education
for every student, a move-
ment touted by Oregon
School District officials
as the wave of educations
future.
The three-class cluster at
RCI earlier this year issued
62 iPads to kids at a cost
of roughly $23,500 to the
to get the program off
the ground. The other 13
tablets were brought from
home by the students.
Three teachers Dawna
Wright, Heather Molnar
and Dave Kean lead the
classes and say theyve
never worked harder but
have never enjoyed teach-
ing as much, either.
The traditional model of
lecturing to students who
take notes, work on assign-
ments and then take tests
has largely been upended,
Kean said.
I nst ead, Kean of t en
spends much of his day
checking in with indi-
vidual students some-
times three-dozen a day
to see how they are pro-
gressing on projects or
goals.
Its just problem solv-
ing with students all day
long, said Kean, who
specializes in social stud-
ies but, along with Molnar
and Wright, helps students
out with assignments in
science, math or English
when they need it.
Its just more pertinent
to what kids need, he
said. And theyre enjoy-
ing what theyre doing
mor e, whi ch hel ps us
enjoy our jobs more.
Typical day
A typical day in Terra
Cotta 1 this year begins in
a large-group meeting area
adjoining the three class-
es. For 10 or 15 minutes,
teachers go over the week-
ly or daily assignments so
kids know whats expected
of them.

those deductibles in 2013-
14 (board members Wayne
Mixdorf and Rae Vogeler
were absent).
This is good for the
pocketbooks of not only
our teachers, but also our
custodians, support staff,
etc., Jon Fishwild, presi-
dent of the Oregon Educa-
tion Association, write in
an email to the Observer
after the vote. I am very
pleased with the outcome.
The di st ri ct i n Apri l
learned that health insur-
ance costs are set to rise up
to 16 percent next school
year. That translates into
an $850,000 increase that
would fuel a $1 million-
plus deficit for next school
years budget.
A board committee had
previously recommended
imposing new deductibles
but did not specify how
they would be funded. The
board on May 13 tabled a
decision by a 4-3 vote after
a contentious debate.
Most district staff pay 10
percent or more of the dis-
tricts health insurance pre-
miums or roughly $1,500
to $2,000 annually for fam-
ily plans and no deduct-
ibles beyond that.
Te c h n i c a l l y , s t a f f
insured through the district
will still be charged the
deductibles, but the district
will reimburse them using
up to $400,000 from fund
balance, a reserve fund of
sorts that accounts for dis-
trict assets versus liabili-
ties.
The amount of money
in fund balance varies dur-
ing the year but is set to
be about $11 million on
July 1, the start of the next
fiscal year, said business
manager Andy Weiland.
Di st r i ct s of t en hesi -
tate to dip into fund bal-
ance because doing so can
harm their credit rating,
which can drive up inter-
est rates on loans. And if
it gets too low, districts
often are forced to take out
short-term loans to cover
expenses before state aid
and end-of-year property
tax payments refill their
coffers.
But because this is a
one-time fix, the district
should be in good shape,
Weiland said.
Board member St eve
Zach he was comfortable
using fund balance this
year to reimburse teachers,
especially after teachers
two years ago essentially
took a nearly 6 percent pay
cut when a change in state
law required them to pay
that much into their pen-
sion.
But, Zach added, We
cannot be using fund bal-
ance, as a general practice,
to fund operational needs
on an ongoing basis.
The board didnt com-
mit to funding deductibles
beyond next year, nor did
the union ask them to.
The future of the districts
health insurance plan is
murky, in part because of
the unknown ramifications
of the federal Affordable
Care Act.
Fi s hwi l d cal l ed t he
change a viable short-
term fix, though he said
he hopes the district will
work wi t h st aff i n t he
future to examine options
beyond having teachers
shoulder new deductibles.
This health insurance
scenario is not sustainable
in the long run, not for any-
body, he said.
OSD: Zach warns about using fund balance
Continued from page 1
In brief
Oregon School
District staff wont have
to shoulder new health
insurance deductibles
after a vote last week
by the Oregon School
Board. Instead, the
costs will be paid
through the districts
reserve fund for the
2013-14 school year.

When the 2012-13 school
year wraps up next Thurs-
day, it will mark the final
day of class for eight staff
who have worked a com-
bined 185 years in Oregon
School District.
Thats how many teach-
ers and other employees
are retiring at the end of the
semester. They add to a list
of six other staff who logged
a collective 90 years in OSD
before retiring earlier this
year.
The number of retiring
teachers is just below the
average of 8-12 annually.
Two years ago, an unusually
high number of 25 teachers
retired amid concerns over
the impact of Act 10 legisla-
tion.
Teachers who are retiring
this spring include:
Stan Eddy, Rome Cor-
ners Intermediate (33 years
in the district)
Chris Antonuzzo, RCI
(32 years)
Deanna Fischer, RCI (25
years)
Barbara Hoffman, spe-
cial education (21 years)
Teachers who retired ear-
lier this year include:
Gwen Maitzen, OHS (16
years)
Philayne Chose, district-
wide (11 years)
Other staff marking their
final year in the district
include:
custodial staffers Bill
Obsmacher, Daryl Booth
and Linda Altenburg
food service worker
Judy Day (33 years)
educational assistants
Mary Giese (Netherwood
Knoll Elementary) and Deb-
bie Jones (OHS)
two support staff who
did not want to be named.
Bus driver and former
Town of Oregon chair Jerry
Jensen is also retiring his
route after 40 years.
The district earlier this
year recognized staff who
celebrated milestone anni-
versaries
Staff marking 20 years
in the district include Col-
leen Christenson, JoAnn
Dachenbach, Kr i s t i ne
Deininger, David Freitag,
Gail Gregory, Patricia Het-
land, Shelly Hicks, Barbara
Hoffman, Mark Lee, Jodie
McCoy, Lynette Outhouse,
Debra Vansteenderen and
Patricia Zachow.
Marking 25 years are
Mary Kay Gillespie, Linda
Glassmaker, Leyla Sanyer
and Carol Wilson.
Thirty-year veterans in
OSD include Kay Bliefern-
icht, Karen Parsons and Ber-
nadette Schnabel.
Fewer retirements this year
Seth Jovaag
The percentage of stu-
dents from low-income
families dipped this year
in the Oregon School Dis-
trict, according to data
released last week by the
state Department of Public
Instruction.
For the 2012-13 school
year, 16.9 percent of OSD
students qualify for free or
reduced lunch rates, a key
indicator for determining
if a student is considered
economically disadvan-
taged, or low-income.
Thats down from a peak
of 18.9 percent last school
year but still the second-
highest rate in six years of
data, according to DPI sta-
tistics.
In 2007-08, just 8 per-
cent of OSD students were
deemed low-income, but
that rose steadily until last
years peak.
Statewide, the number
of economically disadvan-
taged students increased
to 43.2 percent this school
year, up from 42.5 percent
in 2011-12 and 29.5 per-
cent in 2003-04.
The federal government
sets income requirements
for families to qualify for
free or discounted school
meals. This year, a family
of four must earn $29,965
or less to be eligible for
free lunches, or less than
$42,643 a year for reduced
rates.
The DPI data released
last week is derived from
information provided last
October by school dis-
tricts. It is more accu-
rate than data shown on a
widely used state website,
WINNS, that relies on Sep-
tember enrollment figures,
explained DPI spokesper-
son John Johnson.

A
s investors approach
retirement, its com-
mon for them to wonder
whether they should allocate
less or even none into equi-
ties. Often, this question is a
major factor in overall financial
decisions.
Its worth considering, but its
rarely necessary.
My conversations with pro-
spective clients have made it
clear that its important to give
them an understanding of how a
well-diversified portfolio works,
so at the very
least, theyre
using accurate
information in
their decisions.
Wise investors
make sure they
build a glob-
ally diversified
portfolio with
passively man-
aged invest-
ments that is,
requiring little or no attention
from the investor that reflect
your need, willingness and abil-
ity to take risk.
Certainly, as you approach
and enter retirement, you might
be less inclined or able to take
financial risks.
With a shorter investment
horizon, you dont have as much
time to wait out the inevitable
bear markets or suffer the psy-
chological strains that result
from them. And if you are no
longer working, you dont have
the same ability to replace or
recover from the financial loss-
es, either.
So its logical for investors
to feel the need to reduce the
amount they have tied up in the
more volatile equities and look
into bonds and other, more sta-
ble funds as they reach or even
approach the retirement stage of
their lives.
While you might wish to
reduce some of that risk, histori-
cal evidence suggests a portfolio
can actually become too con-
servative. Doing so might cause
your portfolio to fail, leaving
you without the financial assets
needed to support the lifestyle
you have worked so hard to
achieve.
Lets take a hypothetical case
of three investors, Conservative
Charlie, Moderate Mike and
Aggressive Adam, from the time
frame of 1926 to 2012.
Charlie is so conservative that
he has invested all his financial
assets in long-term government
bonds (following a 20-year
maturity Treasury strategy).
Mike is also conservative,
with most of his assets in long-
term government bonds, but 20
percent of the portfolio is allo-
cated to stocks well tie it to
the S&P 500 Index.
Adam, meanwhile, allocates
30 percent to the S&P 500
Index.
As the attached table shows,
Mike, with his conservative, but
not overly conservative strategy,
earned higher returns (6.9 per-
cent vs. 5.7 percent) and experi-
enced less volatility (8.8 percent
vs. 9.7 percent annual standard
deviation) than Charlie, who
thought he was playing it safe.
Not only that, by increas-
ing the equity allocation even
further to 30 percent, Adam
earned greater returns (7.5
percent) than both Mike and
Charlie. However, Adam also
experienced higher volatility
than Mike (9.2 percent), and
his worst single-year loss was
higher than both, at almost 17
percent.
As you can see, adding a
small amount of equities to an
all-bond portfolio raises returns
while actually reducing volatil-
ity.
While stocks are obviously
more volatile than bonds (the
standard deviation of the S&P
500 Index at 20.2 is more than
twice the standard deviation of
long-term government bonds),
they have low correlation (0.01)
to those same bonds. That
makes the portfolio including
both more diversified, which
both reduces its volatility and
increases its return rate.
So its not necessary or
even a good idea to become
so conservative that you remove
all equities from your portfolio.
Historical evidence shows that
investing as much as 30 percent
into globally diversified equities
and shorter-term fixed income
assets is likely to produce great-
er returns with similar or even
lower volatility than a portfolio
full of safe longer-term gov-
ernment bonds.
Discussing your portfolio
allocation with a financial
adviser is a great starting point
in understanding your invest-
ments and overall portfolio.
Finding a financial adviser who
will follow a prudent approach
to investing while taking a
fiduciary role as your adviser is
very important so you know that
the adviser is working in your
best interests.
Finally, following an invest-
ment strategy that offers com-
fort and understanding helps
you and your adviser create the
right plan, while avoiding the
temptation of being too conser-
vative.

position with the Rock County
Humane Society.
Frazier, who moved up from
City of Milton alder to mayor in
April, said it was a tough decision
to leave Oregon, but hes joining
a much bigger organization with
room for career advancement. Its
also closer to his home and cuts his
commute down to almost nothing.
Frazier began working for the
Oregon chamber in February
2011. He recalled that on his sec-
ond day of work, a big snowstorm
hit the area.
I dutifully drove here only to
find that none of the bankers or
nobody on our board had bothered
to come in, he said with a laugh.
I remember Judy Knutson and I
were about the only people in town
that day. I saw her driving to work
as I was driving to work.
In addition to organizing last
years Summer Fest, which was
our best ever by far, Frazier feels
hes leaving the chamber in good
shape.
This Chamber of Commerce
now, as compared to what it was
two-and-a-half or three years ago,
its just night and day, he said.
Two years ago the chamber was
in the basement of a bank and now
we have this great office space.
The next person coming in here is
set up for success.
He noted that every storefront
in downtown Oregon is now occu-
pied, which wasnt the case when
he came here in early 2011.
I would have liked to get more
done on the north side and the
Janesville Street areas, he said.
Those will be for the next director
to really focus on.
Its been a heck of a good time
and I definitely am going to miss
it, Frazier added. Ive offered as
much help as the board needs to
prepare for Summer Fest and to
find the next person. Well see.

Lifelong Education
It is almost a clich to say that education must be continuous
throughout ones life. We all know that we live in a rapidly chang-
ing world and that technology isnt waiting around for us to catch
up. The more important reason for lifelong education is that it
takes a lifetime to figure out how to be a decent human being.
This is one reason why its important for young people to listen
to their elders and to read the classics. The wisdom of the elders
is the received wisdom of our culture, in much the same way as
the classics contain the wisdom of the ages. Having to figure out
everything on our own would be tantamount to reinventing the
wheel. Education is a much more efficient way of adapting to life
in a complicated and often dangerous world.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools
despise wisdom and instructions.

Hammer with a Heart
helps Oregon area
Project Homes 12th annual Hammer with a Heart
program and its crews provided free major home repairs
for nine families in Dane County, two of which were in
the Town of Oregon and the
Town of Dunn.
Each spr i ng, Hammer
with a Heart makes crucial
repairs and health and safe-
ty improvements for low-
income homeowners, with
all volunteer labor and many
donated materials. Volun-
teers install new roofs, sid-
ing, doors, windows and
make accessibility modifica-
tions to kitchens and bath-
rooms.
More than 200 volunteers,
both from area businesses
and other parts of the com-
munity, worked together to
repair homes on May 4.
In Oregon, Gary Fred-
rickson and Carolyn Kahl
received new siding, a more
accessible door, new front
windows and other repairs
and work.
In the Town of Dunn, Lin-
da Cairns had a new roof and
deck installed.
Jason Hafeman, of Project
Home said the generous sup-
port of volunteers and spon-
sors helped make the project
a success.
Through Hammer with a
Heart, we are able to take a
weight off of people that are
carrying a heavy load, Hafe-
man said in a news release.
These are seniors, veterans,
families with young children,
people that are handicapped
or have had si gni f i cant
health issues, and they need
a hand.
Over 11 years, 85 low-
income families, in 27 Dane
County communities, have
received major repairs valued
at approximately $950,000
through the Hammer with a
Heart program.
Visit projecthomewi.org
for more information.

Eat Fresh
Food cart at Oregon Middle
School will help promote
student produce
Victoria Vlisides
Healthy eating options
just got more utility at the
Oregon School District.
Oregon Middle School
got a new food cart earlier
this month to help properly
chill and serve in-house
produce at lunch. Its one
of two food carts in the dis-
trict and goes in hand with
serving vegetables grown
by students at the middle
school.
The plastic cart looks
like a smaller version of a
salad bar one would see at
a restaurant. It has wheels,
is just under six feet high
and three-and-a-half feet
long, with a plastic sneeze
guard. Additionally, it has
temperature control through
an ice chiller unit and is
kept in the freezer over-
night, said Robyn Wood,
school meal program direc-
tor.
Previous to the bar, pro-
duce, like salad greens,
grown in the schools hoop
house, was served on a
metal cart in pans. That
wasnt ideal for keeping
food chilled nor for stor-
age, said Holly von Allmen,
food service products man-
ager.
Its a huge upgrade,
von Allmen said. It was
hard to have a salad bar off
a metal cart.
Wood put a handful of
bids out in March for the
bar that cost about $1,600.
Through fundraising, OMS
student council donated
$200 toward the new bar as
part of a way to give back
to the school.
Student council adviser
Kevin Gasner said the food
cart allows the students to
help out with something
theyll use every day.
Since the hoop house
was built, the kids love eat-
ing the food they grow, but
there hasnt been a very
good way to present it, he
said.
Within the district, Ore-
gon High School has a sim-
ilar cart used in the sand-
wich line for fixings and
condiments.
Seventh graders (from right) Kyrsten George, Samantha Armstrong,
and Taylor Schmidt grab lunch last Thursday from the new food
cart.

Jeremy Jones
Sports editor
Senior Danielle Steinberg is
no stranger to big meets. She
helped the Oregon girls cross
country team reach state last
fall, and shes already run on
multiple state track relays for
the Panthers.
So i f anyone was goi ng
to appreciate the efforts of
t eammat e Val eri e Jones i t
woul d be St ei nber g, who
helped Oregons 4x800-meter
relay secure the first of three
sectional titles Thursday in 9
minutes, 51.24 seconds at the
WIAA Waterford sectional
track and field meet.
Getting out to a comfortable
lead, the Panthers watched
their lead deteriorate, falling
back into third place with the
baton still to go to Jones.
Val s capabl e of any-
thing, Steinberg said. She
teases people in the 800. Vals
just a beast.
Junior Jamie Wood wasted
no time in setting the pace
before passing the baton to
Steinberg, who kept the pedal
down. Newcomer freshman
Maddie LeBrun fell back to
the pack a bit before hand-
ing off to Jones, who later
added a sectional title in the
800-meter run, holding off
Verona junior Jenni LaCroix
for first in 2:23.06.
The same quarter capped
the meet with a runner-up
finish in the 4x400 relay in
4:09.85 four seconds behind
Verona.
I woul dnt l i ke havi ng
a race thats easy to win ...
because at state its not going
to be easy, Steinberg said.
I m gl ad St ought on put
someone like Nikki (Staffen)
in to give Val someone to
race.
Junior Jamie Wood added
a runner-up finish to Water-
ford senior Jenny Gilbreath
(59.70) in the 400-meter dash
with a time of 1:00.37.

Schneider advances to state
Jeremy Jones
Sports editor
Juni or Jackson Schnei der
had been dreaming about this
moment ever since losing a
three-setter at sectionals a year
ago.
It was frust rat i ng, sai d
Schneider, who acknowledged
that the loss also served as moti-
vation to get through to this
weeks individual state tennis
tournament.
Schneider put all the frustra-
tion behind him Thursday at
the Lake Geneva Badger sec-
tional meet, cruising to a 6-1,
6-1 straight-set victory over
Badger sophomore Liam Bailey
inside Four Lakes Athletic Club
to earn automatically qualify for
state. He became the Panthers
first state-qualifier in nearly a
decade in the process.
Matt Stein and Justin Crossen
qualified at No. 1 doubles back
in 2004.
Its a big deal for the team,
Schneider said. We have a deep
team, and this will be encourag-
ing for future players.
The victory set up a second-
round match against rival junior
Andrew Dahl of Fort Atkinson,
which he lost 6-4, 7-6 (4).
Schneider finished the third
tournament in the third-place
match, which he won 7-6 (7),

ODonnell shoots an
80 in his WIAA D1
sectional debut
Anthony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor
Grant ODonnell said he started off feel-
ing confident at Tuesdays WIAA Division
1 Sparta sectional at River Run Golf Course
after making a par putt.
The Oregon freshman entered his first
sectional meet trying not to let the pressure
get to him, but acknowledged he did get
a little desperate to go for some birdies to
try and get back into the mix following the
front nine.
ODonnell could not, however, and his
inaugural varsity season came to an end
with an 8-over par 80, which tied him for
27th overall.
I missed a lot of putts today, ODonnell
said during a phone interview. If I could
have gotten it rolling and made a few putts,
I would have been right in it.
But with Holmens Tyler Church (72),
Sauk Prairies RJ Budd (72) and La Crosse
Centrals Devin Terry (73) all qualifying as
to state as individuals with low numbers,
ODonnell said he knows he has to work on
his short game to reach state next season.
He also believes the entire Oregon team
can go next season.
I think our team has a seriously good
chance to make it through sectionals next
year, he said. I wouldnt count us out at
all. I think we are going to be a good team
next year.
The Panthers will have their work cut
out, however, as Onalaska and Stoughton
advanced this season with a 296 and a 299,
respectively.

Kressin leads trio of Panthers
Jeremy Jones
Sports editor
Freshman
MacKenzi e
Kressin and
seniors Hai-
l ey Mor ey
and Al yssa
Damon were
all selected
to the Badger
Sout h Al l -
Conference
s quad l as t
week.
Kressin, a
utility player
who played
ever y spot
on the infield
except first
b a s e a n d
even pitched
25 innings, earned the top
nod.
She led the team in hits,
doubles and RBIs, while
hitting .333 overall (.310 in
conference). Kressin struck
out only five times on the
season.
In his 18 years around the
program, head coach Mike
Derrick said Kressin is the
first Oregon freshman he
could recall getting such rec-
ognition.
Were a young team,
and I think Mackenzie and
this honor are signs of our
potential and better things to
come, Derrick said.
Morey received honorable
mention honors as a pitcher.
As the Panthers ace struck
out 50 in 12 starts.
A control pitcher, who
was always around the plate,
she posted a nearly 4-to-1
strike out to walk ratio only
allowing 13 free passes on
the season.
Though her average was
down at the plate, Damon
earned an honorable men-
tion nod for her defense.
She posted 50 put outs from
behind the plate and 17
assists, including eight bas-
erunners caught stealing.
Shes going to play at
Edgewood College next year
where she plans to study to
become a nurse
Hailey and Alyssa were
awesome captains through a
trying season, Derrick said.
They both deserve every
honor they get.
Oregon fi ni shed 1-15
overall on the season.

All junior pitcher Logan
Laski needed is a few runs
Tuesday in a WIAA Divi-
sion 1 regional semifinal
against No. 7 Monona Grove
at Firemens Park in Cottage
Grove.
Laski threw a complete
game in a 4-1 win for the
No. 10 Oregon baseball team
(5-13 overall) to keep its sea-
son alive for another couple
of days and to knock of the
co-Badger South champions.
With the offensive sup-
port, which hasnt come all
season, it is good to come in
a regional game when it mat-
ters, Laski said.
Clutch hits didnt come by
that easily in the beginning of
the season, but things started
to turn around in the last
week.
Still, head coach Kevin
Connor was not going to
take anything for granted as
he turned to small ball from
the start, calling for sacri-
fice bunts and hit-and-runs
regardless of where batters
were in the lineup.
But even with execution
to move runners into scor-
ing position, the Panthers
still needed to get the hits,
and they did in the top of the
fourth when they put up a
three on the scoreboard.
Senior Adam Brauns start-
ed the inning with a sharp
single to center field, and
junior catcher Collin Byron
walked a batter latter to put
two on and one out.
Junior Lance Peterson was
called in as a courtesy runner
for Byron, and junior Jack
Krueger blooped a single to
center field to load the bases.
That is when the clutch
hits began falling.
Junior Austin Adams
started it off with a chopper
past the third baseman and
shortstop for an RBI single,
and senior Simon Maurice
followed by roping an RBI
single of his own to center
field. Junior Ross Galloway
capped the inning with an
RBI groundout.
All season, once we get a
hitting streak like that going,
the energy, you can just feel
it building up in the dugout,
Laski said. I really expect
the guys to keep it up after
that.
That was all Laski needed
as he only allowed a run on
three hits in seven innings.
He struck out three and
walked none.
In fact, two of the three hits
against Laski were by Drew
Elbe, who hit a game-tying
home run in the bottom of the
second and a double in the
seventh.
Oregon started the scor-
ing with a run in the top of
the first. Maurice walked and
reached second on a bunt sin-
gle by Galloway.
Maurice stole third, but the
third baseman threw the ball
over the pitchers head and
past the first baseman allow-
ing Maurice to score.
Oregon travels to Beloit
College at 5 p.m. Thursday to
take on No. 3 Beloit Memo-
rial in the regional final.
Connor is not sure who he
will throw on the mound yet.
We are going to talk with
the coaching staff and figure
out what is the best move to
make, Connor said. We
will figure out who is better
in relief and all of that.
Waunakee 5, Oregon 2
The Panthers traveled to
Miller Park in Milwaukee to
take on Waunakee in a non-
conference game May 22 and
lost 5-2.
The Panthers tied the game
in the third, but they allowed
two runs in the bottom of the
inning and never recovered.
Junior Jere Bauer was the
leading hitter for Oregon
going 2-for-3.
Senior pitcher Zach Ragels
picked up the loss. He
allowed three earned runs on
seven hits and one walk.
Junior Tyler Morten-
son finished the game. He
allowed two earned runs on
two hits. He walked one and
struck out one.
Baraboo 1, Oregon 0
The Panthers concluded
the regular season last Friday
in a 1-0 loss to Baraboo at
home.
Ragels picked up the tough
loss, allowing the run on
three hits in two innings. He
struck out two.
Laski and Galloway both
went two innings and each
struck out one, while Adam
Brauns pitched an inning and
allowed a walk.
Laski finished 2-for-3 with
a double for Oregon.

Daily walleye bag lim-

Walleye fishing is a
great tradition for sport
and tribal anglers alike
and were happy to have
such positive news head-

DNR and the Chip-

hard for the last 30 years to
share and sustain this great
fishery, and we are excited
about the prospect to make
it even better.
Anglers daily bag limit
for walleye increased to

according to Joe Hennessy,
who coordinates the treaty

break off to work alone on a
social studies project, catch a
writing lecture from Molnar
or carry out a lab experiment
under Wrights watch. Each
day can vary.
Meanwhile, teachers have
recorded scores of mini-
lectures either during class
or after school that stu-
dents can watch live or on
their iPads. Kids can pause
or review the recorded vid-
eos in class or at home, and
in class, they can ask teach-
ers to explain something they
didnt understand in the lec-
tures, Wenger explained.
With wireless access,
the iPads also afford kids
a quick, easy way to do
research online, Kean said.
Traditionally, teachers either
have to reserve computer
rooms or carts of laptops,
a cumbersome process that
wastes time as students wait
for computers to boot up and
log in.
Its way faster, said stu-
dent Dylan DiMaggio.
Its also easier for students
to do more exploring on
their own about assigned
topics, Kean said. As an
example, when a student
asked a question about the
Revolutionary War, Kean
responded by asking the stu-
dent how he could find that
information online.
Before, I had to feed them
more of the information.
When they get to explore
these things on their own,
Ive found they tend to reach
much more and get more out
of it versus just me saying,
You need to know this and
this.
Wright notes that when
kids are absent, they can eas-
ily catch up on old assign-
ments or lectures from home
or in class without stopping a
lesson in progress. She also
said its easier to give feed-
back on their work when its
all compiled online for her to
review.
On a visit to the class earli-
er this month, student Brooke
McCallum was studying a
vocabulary list after catching
up on a previous science vid-
eo.
She said the easy-to-read
assignment checklist helps
her remember what she
needs to work on. And, like
others, she likes how the new
approach allows her to work
at her own pace.
You dont have to have
teachers right on your back
the whole time, she said.
New skills
Students dont spend all
day staring at their computer
screens, Wright notes. Two
hours a day is about the max-
imum, and kids still often
opt to read books or write in
notebooks the old-fashioned
way.
Likewise, they still study
art, physical education music
and math in more traditional
settings.
Wright said some stu-
dents struggle with having
so much independence, but
in a survey of students, about
90 percent liked the new
approach.
Kean added that theres
no such thing as a one-size
-fits-all approach to educa-
tion, and theyre not propos-
ing that every class should
work this way. That being
said, putting mobile comput-
ers in every kids hands has,
he thinks, major benefits that
wont always show up in test
scores.
The RCI students are
learning more about time
management, research skills
and working in teams, he
says.
There are so many skills
here that they are going to be
able to apply in the future, he
said.
The same team of teachers
will continue the pilot pro-
gram for RCI sixth-graders
next year. Unlike this years
group, parents can choose to
opt out of the program if
they feel it wont work well
for their kid.
Other schools have tried
incorporating more technol-
ogy into classrooms on a
smaller scale, said district
technology director Jon Tan-
ner.
At Prairie View Elemen-
tary, third- and fourth-graders
each are assigned a Chrome-
book laptop during language
arts classes. A similar trial for
fourth-graders at Netherwood
Knoll Elementary kicked off
this spring. Oregon Middle
School is pushing a bring
your own device approach
to get more students using
mobile computers during the
school day, too.
RCI had looked into get-
ting enough devices for every
student next year, but with
budgets tight particularly in
light of a proposed state bud-
get that freezes spending lim-
its for school districts that
options off the table for now,
Tanner said in an email.
However, the Oregon
School Board, which has
heard several updates from
RCI teachers this year, has
consistently shown support
for expanding the one-to-one
experiment as part of an over-
all push to customize educa-
tion for each student.
I am confident that we
can find ways to personalize
learning to some extent with
the technology we have and
within our financial limita-
tions, Tanner wrote.
Big changes like whats
happening at RCI also require
teachers willing to try some-
thing new, Wright added. Per-
sonally, she said the change
this year has revived her love
of teaching.
But she also thinks todays
students and their parents
will likely spur changes them-
selves as they become more
accustomed to using mobile
devices in class.
These are the kids that will
push the system, she said.
The trial year at RCI had
some growing pains, as the
teachers learned which apps
and software are most effec-
tive and how to develop clear
consequences if students, say,
tried playing video games
during class, Kean said.
Overall, however, Its
gone so much better than we
anticipated, he said. I think
next year its just going to
fly.
iPads: Program, in its trial year at RCI, has gone much better than anticipated
