Primary sponsors of the new high school scoreboard. Mr. Mark Windsor, Commander of the Mt. Wolf VFW, and Mrs. Sandy Brenner, President of the VFW auxiliary, reviewed with the board the VFW’s interest to raise funds for the scoreboard, a new flagpole and lighting for the flagpole at the stadium. The VFW is making a five-year commitment to the Northeastern School District with funds to be given to the Northeastern Foundation. The foundation will decide how to use the funds given by the VFW. The VFW will do two huge fundraisers, a bingo event and a golf tournament, each year. The goal is to raise $50,000 dollars for the foundation. The flagpole has to be discussed with the VFW body and a commitment will be made at a later time. The intention is to raise enough money to build a new flagpole. They discussed putting in a 50’ flagpole at the 50-yard line in the stadium. Mr. Windsor had a check for $4,500 for the final payment for the scoreboard. The cost of just the flagpole is shy of $5,000. Mrs. Sandy Brenner thanked the board for allowing them to speak tonight. Devin Seiger won the VFW “Voice for Democracy” award promoted by the VFW each year. He was the 1st place winner for the local VFW and placed 3rd in the VFW district. The auxiliary voted to support whatever the VFW decided to do with helping the district. They will also have their own projects and more will be discussed at their next meeting including forming a committee for the next bingo event. The auxiliary provides every U.S. flag in the district, which they have done for many years. We just need to ask and they will provide the flag. Mrs. Diane Wolf and Mr. Chris Izzo addressed the board concerning the Northeastern Foundation and their participation and partnership with the VFW. The Flip House is coming along. They hope to have it ready to sell by the end of the summer. The funds raised were for the scoreboard and any funds left over will go toward the turf on the stadium field. Mrs. Walker commented that the VFW has been doing many things in our district over the years including the Patriotic Writing contest, a Patriotic Art contest, the Easter parties for our kids, bus trips for veterans, wreaths across America, trips to Lebanon Hospital and bingo parties with Veterans to name a few. The VFW has given away over $50,000 since 2010. These projects will continue. Mr. Knepper commented that he has been with the district since 1990. The district uses a lot of flags in buildings and we have never paid for any U.S. flag.

IV. Report – Budget Transfers (attachment) The superintendent recommends approving the attached list of budget transfers. V. Report - MySchoolBucks Agreement with Heartland Payment Systems, LLC for Online Payments
(attachment) The superintendent recommends approving the agreement between Heartland Payment Systems, LLC and the Northeastern School District to expand online payments through the MySchoolBucks program for school-related fees and purchases by parents, community members and other stakeholders.
VI. Report - MySchoolBucks Agreement with Heartland Payment Systems, LLC for In-Person Payments
(attachment) The superintendent recommends approving the agreement between Heartland Payment Systems, LLC and the Northeastern School District to offer in-person credit card payments through the MySchoolBucks program for school-related fees and purchases by parents, community members and other stakeholders. Discussion by the board with Mrs. Pritchett on the difference between Items V and VI. Costs of this agreement discussed. This agreement does not include the Child Nutrition funds for student meals. This agreement includes fees for insurance for chromebooks, student activity fees, physicals for participants in sports, musical events, and all extra-curricular events throughout the district. This system avoids fees charged by the bank for check and cash deposits. The funds go to the general fund. Item VI is for use of a credit cards at the event. Parents could pay for the student’s physical and activity fee at the time the student is receiving the physical. The “Square” would be used to make payment at point of sale. This would link the parent paying, to the student being paid for. Mrs. Pritchett said the district was planning on getting two of the “Squares” to start. Reviewed current method of payment and the benefits of MySchoolBucks Agreement. Mr. Gettle has reviewed and approved the agreement regarding legal issues. This first year the cost would be 3.95%, but Mrs. Pritchett would renegotiate this fee after the first year depending on the revenue generated.
VII. Report - Frontline Education Agreement for Aesop (attachment)
The superintendent recommends approving the agreement between Frontline Education and the Northeastern School District to purchase the Absence & Substitute Management Software (Aesop). Discussion on the benefits and costs of Aesop. Actual cost would be close to $20,000. $6,000 of that is a one-time cost. We currently use a substitute caller and building secretaries to secure substitutes, but this would cover much more than just securing a substitute to including tracking of days off and connecting this system to the payroll and employee leave software. Reviewed costs of employees needing a substitute and employees who do not need a substitute. Principals would be able to log on to see who is out in their building and if any classrooms are without a substitute. Aesop would allow a fluid transition of receiving information and recording it appropriately. Discussion on other districts who use Aesop, transition to initial start up, and once the system is in place and running smoothly. NESD is one of only two districts in York County who do not use Aesop.

Dr. Sidle reported that student numbers in the past have been much higher (When Mrs. Radanovic first started with NESD, we were paying for 10 students). It has come down over the years.

OLD BUSINESS
Mr. Gebhart reported that Central School District has asked questions in regard to withdrawing from York County School of Technology. They have also asked questions in reference to having an amendment to the Articles of Agreement, in particular, the dispersal of funds. The home districts, the authority and the JOC would have to vote on this. Voting requirements were discussed. This is important because the dividing up of the budget would be among 13 districts instead of the current 14 districts. Mr. Gebhart will keep the board informed as more information becomes available.

Information Literacy Skills
Magnificent May! In kindergarten, students worked on identifying fiction/nonfiction books. The fiction/nonfiction game was a huge success. Students identified the call number on the spine of the book as fiction or nonfiction. They wrote E, F or NF and the author’s first three letters of their last name on the “magic” smart board. A student came and checked to make sure it was correct. If it was, the student drew a big smiley face on the board. The students had a blast! Both fiction and nonfiction books were reviewed using Book Flix through Martin Library. In first grade, the students finished work on their research packets. Student Discovery Encyclopedias and World Book (online) were used to find answers to questions about animals in a super, sneaky way. The students learned how to cite their source on their packets. All the students were great detectives. We culminated first grade with a discussion on Caldecott Medal winners and their books.
Second graders worked on their research packets. Their research included the dictionary, encyclopedia, atlas and almanac. When all research was finished, the students took a reference assessment on which tool to use to find certain information. Third grade students finished up their research on Gail Gibbons, a nonfiction author. They finished their scavenger hunt and answers were discussed. Hopefully their research skills will carry with them as they enter the intermediate buildings.

Woo-Woo! We had an awesome time at the York Revolution Stadium for our AR Main Event. The students were very excited and scored with a welcoming tunnel for the Revolution. A great day for a baseball game. I can’t thank everyone enough who played a part in this event. Next year, we will be traveling in space for AR.
May 2017 Library News from York Haven
What a fantastic year. We wrapped up the year in library finishing up several author studies and reviewing some of the things we covered. We also discussed the importance of reading over the summer. I share information with the students about York County Library’s summer reading club. Even as we wind down in library the students are still reading. They checked out 661 books this month. Through the course of the 2016-2017 school year the students and staff at York Haven borrowed 12,848 books.
The students successfully passed 20,210 AR quizzes this year. That is equivalent to each student in K-3 completing 80 quizzes each. The number that I love to see even more is the number of words the students have read. The students at York Haven have read 33,340,392 words or on average 133,361 words per student. Our school-wide average correct was 86.4% for the year.

Information Literacy After completing their research on biomes, fourth-grade students learned how the
library collection is organized according to the Dewey Decimal System. Fifth-grade
students also reviewed this system of classification. A comparison of primary and
secondary sources was the focus of studies for sixth-grade students. These students
brought in primary source items of their own as part of a “Who am I? “activity.
Reading Promotion
Students have been checking out biographies of May, June, July, and August
birthday personalities such as Amelia Earhart, Henry Ford, and Cal Ripken, Jr as well as
books by summer birthday authors Jack Gantos, Sharon Creech, and J.K. Rowling.

June, 2017
Summer is here and we are in a flurry of activity! Lawn maintenanceis, of course, continuing, and planting beds will be mulched andweeded. Playgrounds will be inspected and the cushioning wood chips will be replenished as well.
New ovens have been installed at the High School.
The scoreboard installation at the stadium is almost complete.
Locker room benches have been repaired.
Old equipment has been removed from the HS Annex gym.
A new coat of finish has been applied to the Spring Forge gym floor.
Ceiling mounted electrical cords have been installed in the High School ceramics room to allowstudents to use necessary tools at their work tables without having to run extension cords across thefloor.
Painting has begun in the Conewago gym. This is a pretty large project, and we are looking forwardto a fresh new look. I am excited to see the finished product - the room will be finished in two-tonegray, and it should be very nice.
All of the necessary preparations are complete for the roofing project to get underway at Mount Wolf.The contractor is scheduled to be there in the next 2 weeks. Incidentally, we have gotten goodreports about this contractor’s work, so I am encouraged by that.
Supplies are already starting to arrive in the warehouse for the new school year. There was aconcerted effort this year to order things a bit earlier, and therefore allow us to be at the beginning ofthe suppliers’ delivery schedule rather than at the end. As a result, Keith (our warehouse coordinator)is already noticing that there seem to be fewer back ordered items, since the merchants haven’t runout of stock yet!
Summer is a crazy time for us - but a really good time when we can accomplish lots of work withoutbeing in the way of the normal educational process. Thanks so much for all you do to support us!
