You will see later in this newsletter an article about Le Mars Community Schools' First Annual Alcohol Awareness Week and two Alcohol Awareness Week Pledge sheets. These items were the result of work done by a small subgroup of the Plymouth County Health Planning Committee of which I am a member along with senior students Yashila Permeswaran and Carolyn Ahlers. The three of us worked with Carol Schneider from Iowa State Extension and Alan Fredricksen from Jackson Recovery on trying to bring awareness to the fact that underage drinking in Plymouth County occurs at a higher than average rate when compared to the other counties in the state. The source of this statistic is the Iowa Youth Survey.
Our thought is to encourage parents/guardians to have conversations with their children about the inappropriate and unlawful behavior of underage drinking. We have multiple opportunities to discuss the negative effects of underage drinking as a school system, but a more powerful message can be delivered by parents/guardians through their words and actions. The conversation between you and your child is a personal matter and you determine the right age to have the conversation. Please know the by as early as 4th grade some students are thinking it will make them more popular to drink with the others. Likewise, you may not want to talk about all the items listed on the pledge sheet, but it is meant to be a discussion starter about the negative effects of underage drinking and about being committed to going through middle and high school alcohol free.
It would help us to know how many people are being reached with this first project of the subcommittee if you would complete the pledge forms and send one back to school. You can post the other in a prominent plave in your home to be used from time to time to reinforce the message. Your child will be more committed to remaining alcohol free if you have the conversation with him/her and set the expectation. Use the tools being provided and help your child make the right choice to abstain from underage drinking like so many other students every day.
I want to offer my congratulations again to Jayne Willer for being named the Decades of Excellence Crystal Bell Teacher of the Year in the Le Mars Community School District in 2013, and to Norm Barker for being named the Distinguished Alumnus Award recipient in 2013. Mrs. Willer has been a teacher at Kluckhohn Elementary since the 1986-1987 school year. Mr. Barker is a member of the class of 1939 and served ion the county school board before becoming a member of the first Le Mars Community School Board of Education. Both Mrs. Willer and Mr. Barker were honored at the annual Le Mars Community School District Foundation Banquet held on April 24, 2013. Both awards are co-sponsored by the Le Mars Community Schools Foundation and the LCHS Alumni Association. Both the Foundation and the Alumni Association are outstanding supporters of the Le Mars Community School District.
May 6th through the 10th is Teacher Appreciation Week across the country. We are blessed in the LeMars Community School District to have so many teachers who are committed to working with our students' day in and day out to help prepare them for the challenges that their futures will present. I want all of our teachers to know that I truly have appreciated all their effort to help our students be successful this past year. Please take the time during this week to let your child's teacher know that you appreciate his/her efforts.
