APRIL/MAY 2015
From the Superintendent’s Desk… Mr. Randy Dunlap
While spring is the season of renewal and new beginnings, educationally spring time means conclusion and closure for students and staff. The academic year is often viewed as a marathon of sorts,
yet as we reflect back we usually wonder where time has gone. Our seniors who are so excited to
begin their next phase in life will soon reflect on how extraordinarily fast their high school experience
passed. No matter how weary our staff is by the end of an overwhelming year, there is still that prevailing question of how it vanished so quickly.
Educational expectations, procedures and assessments are all vastly different, as well they should
be. The job market in the past was clearly visible and defined. Today we are educating students to
enter a job market that is still appearing on the horizon. The top ten jobs in 2013 did not even exist in
2004. Sixty-five percent of our elementary students today will hold jobs that don’t yet exist. There
are limitless problems to be solved that we aren’t even aware of, which will require us to use technology that does not yet exist. We must equip our students with the tools and skills to facilitate solutions.
We can no longer work in the context of rote memorization and of quizzing students to get patent answers to prescribed questions. We educators must engage students in the process of critical thought
and problem solving for inquiry, while guiding them to utilize available resources to find solutions to
hypothetical problems. Currently there are approximately 100 billion Google searches every
month. Ask yourselves, to whom these questions were addressed prior to Google?
As a high school student, I could have never predicted what the world would resemble today.
There were no personal computers, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), compact discs (CD), digital
video discs (DVD), cell phones, iPads, iPods, Wi-Fi, Google, or many of
the other things we take for
granted on a daily basis. In 1984, it was estimated there were 1,000 internet devices; 1992, the number was 1 million; 2008, it was 1 billion; 2014, more than 10 billion! This increased technology has
created a situation in which 90% of the data in the world has been generated in the last two years.
In this culture and context we cannot expect our classrooms to resemble the classrooms from
which I
graduated. It is a very different climate with a whole new set of circumstances. We are moving from a model of sitting in straight rows completing worksheets and relying on the teacher for all
new information, to a collaborative environment where current world problems are tackled and the
most up to date information is available via the click of a button. In the year 1900, it was estimated
that human knowledge doubled every 100 years; 1945, every 25 years; 2014, every 13 months; 2020,
every 20 hours. We are truly living in exponential times.
I am extremely excited about the students of Crestview having the technological tools to enhance
their learning resources. Predictions are by 2049 a base level laptop computer will exceed the computational capabilities of the entire human species. I believe that there are so many wonderful opportunities from which our students can choose, some that have yet to be created. I have confidence that our
students will be well prepared to compete in the global market given the access that they currently
have to technology. With our current seniors preparing for college, this understanding of the growth
of technology will be paramount. Currently the amount of new technological information is doubling
every two years. For our seniors heading to college or technical school, this means that half of what
they learn their first year of study will be outdated by their third year of study. What impact will technology have on schooling? Technology has the potential to enrich and empower learning.
I am also cautiously hopeful that individuals in our legislature will make decisions that are truly
best for public education. They should be emphasizing student engagement and inquiry over standardized assessments and fully fund those initiatives on an equal level, not based on taxpayer abilities
and living standards. I hope that the media will stop painting all public schools with the same negative brush. Rather, they should reflect on the powerful things we are doing to keep our students in a
growth model and the improvement by our teachers as they become facilitators of knowledge. I know
that the vast majority of American public schools are doing a good job of educating all of our youth.
Students today are much smarter, have many more options, and are better prepared for success than I
was over thirty years ago. I truly believe that all of this growth has little to do with assessments and
evaluations. Rather, it is an acute interest by all parties, students and staff alike, to be successful and
place their own stamp on progress and change for the future.

Dollars & $ense
From the office of your Treasurer...Mr. Larry Lifer
As the outside temperatures are FINALLY leaving those single-digit numbers all of us have so enjoyed over the
past three months (yeah, right!), our thoughts turn to the newness of springtime and anxiously await that first daffodil or crocus to sprout from the ground. The piles of snow are finally beginning to melt and will hopefully be
gone by the time this article prints.
In the financial office of your District, springtime signals the start of planning for the upcoming school year. Many discussions occur on a variety of topics with many of the school personnel. Reviews of the current school year finances identify budget areas that
may need closer scrutiny as next year’s budget is initially scratched out on paper. Eventually those numbers find their way into the
accounting system.
Just as many of you prepare for spring cleaning for your home, similar ideas happen here. Not so much about addressing the cobweb
in the corner or the remains of winter on the windows, but cleaning up loose ends of purchases that have been made and ensuring we
have collected all of the funds that are due the District.
The newness of spring effects all of us in different ways. But the underlying feeling can’t help but to be filled with hope followed by
a sigh of relief that the winter may be behind us. Anyone for a little “Snoopy Dance”?
Please take some time to enjoy the beauty of springtime!
If you have questions about this or any other financial topic, please contact Larry Lifer, Treasurer at 419-895-1700, ext. 17005, or
e-mail Lifer.Larry@crestviewschools.net

Crestview FFA News!
Crestview FFA Week - Despite the cancellations due to
snow Crestview FFA still made the best of FFA week! On Monday members participated in a brand battle, where students wore
apparel in support of their favorite farm machinery brands. Tuesday, the chapter did a twist on their traditional food drive; students were able to bring in a donation or canned food items and
in return were permitted to wear sweatpants or their favorite hat.
Sixty-five people school wide participated! Wednesday, FFA
members wore their favorite FFA t-shirt. In addition to this we
held our annual staff breakfast. Students arrived to the school
early and prepared pancakes, French toast, sausage, and omelets
for the staff before the school day started. The community lunch
which was originally planned for Thursday had to be rescheduled
for a later date due to a calamity day. Flannel Friday and Greenhand day also had to be rescheduled due to another calamity day.
Although we did not have school for two days, the Crestview
FFA still had a successful week.
Public Speaking - Brynn Witmer and Abby Motter traveled
to Plymouth to compete at the Sub-District Public Speaking Contest on February 9. At the competition, Brynn placed 2nd out of
6 in the FFA Creed and Abby placed 1st out of 5 in Advanced
Prepared. Both members advanced to the District contest at
Buckeye Central on the 24th. At this contest Brynn placed 4th
out of 8 and Abby placed 3rd out of 9. Unfortunately, Abby and
Brynn did not place in the top 2 of their classes, so they could not
move on to State Speaking Contest. Congratulations to both ladies!

Crestview Middle School
From the desk of Mr. Eric Yetter, Principal
Crestview Middle School has successfully completed the first
portion of the new state assessments. Our priority is to take a potentially disruptive testing process and create a schedule that least
interrupts instruction. We are able to accomplish this through creative scheduling and flexibility on the part of our teachers and staff.
Crestview's teachers, cafeteria workers and custodians have worked
together to make this process a success. Our students should be
commended for their effort and focus throughout the process. We
are all very proud of their approach to this challenge.
We will complete the testing process in late April and early
May. The End-of-Year tests will take place on the dates listed below. As with the first round, testing is only a portion of the student
day. The testing times are significantly shorter than the old OAA.
Unfortunately, there are more sessions, but we have made every
effort to ensure students still receive instruction in all classes each
day throughout the testing window. Thank you for encouraging
your students to give their best as we tackle this process.

Crestview Elementary School
From the desk of Mrs. Kristi Barker, Principal
Thank goodness for spring! We have endured a hard cold winter and the students have
done their best to stay focused as the staff continues to work with them toward our learning
goals! We celebrated the 100th day of school and students participated in activities to understand the value of 100 as well as the historical connections of what the world was like a century ago and what it
might be like in the future.
Valentine’s Day is always a treat at the elementary as
students and parents are very creative with the boxes they
design. We appreciate the overwhelming turnout as families came in to celebrate in our classrooms. Dr. Seuss’s birthday is also an annual celebration in our building. Students
read a multitude of this timeless author’s classics as well as
some of his works that are not quite as well known. The
building ended the week with trying “green eggs and ham”
for lunch and dressing like their favorite Seuss character .
Looking into the next few months we will be welcoming
new families during kindergarten registration in April and
screening in May. Please refer to the additional article for
details about this process.
Many classes will be participating in a variety of field
trips. MATH NIGHT will take place April 16th and we will
be ending the year with our annual “field day” event so look for details to be coming home with
your student (s) on all of these upcoming events.
Your child’s current teacher will work with the principal to make the best possible placement for next year. Trust that we will
take into consideration your student’s academic needs to maximize their learning potential. We also will be having multiple teachers
joining different teams next year, therefore. specific teacher request are not recommended. If you feel there is specific information
we need to know in order to fit your child’s learning needs please email such information to barker.kristi@crestviewschools.net.
KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION FOR 2015-16 SCHOOL YEAR
Children who will be eligible to attend kindergarten for the 2015-16 school year must be 5 years of age on or
before August 1, 2015. Kindergarten Registration will take place April 6-24 in the board of education office. Parents
must call the board of education office to make an appointment for registration. If you miss registration please call
as soon as possible to set up an appointment to register.
Kindergarten Screening will take place the second week of May 2015. In order to prepare for screening, it is
very important to get your child registered early. Please mark these dates on your calendar if you have a student who
will be entering kindergarten in the fall. We need to get all students registered and screened in order to plan for the
2015-2016 school year. Any questions may be directed to the elementary office at 419-895-1700 ext. 16000 or to the
board of education office at 419-895-1700 ext. 17002 or 17000. Kindergarten Parent Meeting will be held during
the screening appointment time at Crestview Elementary. During this meeting families will have a chance to meet with the principal to learn more about our kindergarten program and answer any questions.
STUDENT ARTWORK CHOSEN FOR 2014 YOUTH ART MONTH EXHIBITION
Please join us congratulating two elementary students for their artwork which is on exhibit in Columbus. Maria Welch, third
grade, has work displayed at The Young Peoples Art Exhibition at the Rhodes State Office Tower in Columbus. Maria created a
shield design using colored pencil. Hayden Kidney, third grade, has work on display at the State Teachers Retirement Systems
Building in Columbus. Hayden created illuminated manuscript “K” using colored pencil and sharpie marker. Both exhibitions are
sponsored by the Ohio Art Education Association. Art works from across the state of Ohio are currently on display in both exhibitions. I am very pleased and proud of these of these young artists who are representing Crestview. The visual arts play a critical role
in the lives of our students at all levels allowing them opportunities to create, problem solve, critique and communicate. It is my
pleasure to follow and encourage all of my students on their creative journey.
