CONVOY — A new school funding plan has passed the Ohio House, but Crestview Superintendent Kathy Mollenkopf is among those who doubts it will pass the Ohio Senate by the end of this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During Monday night\u2019s Crestview Local Board of Education meeting, Mollenkopf said the Senate believes the Fair School Funding Plan, formerly known as the Cupp-Patterson Plan, has too many unknown costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s a solid plan and it\u2019s better than what we have now, so we\u2019ll see what happens,\u201d Mollenkopf said. \u201cI don\u2019t think it has legs to pass in this calendar year, but we need an overhaul in the funding system for public education.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Board members heard a brief presentation from Crestview Elementary Principal Jessica Schuette, Curriculum\/Instruction Director Lindsay Breese, and first grade teachers Courtney Barna and Alicia Perrott about PBIS, or Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, which has been implemented at the elementary level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really a framework in which you start by looking at different settings within the school in which you exhibit where there are problem behaviors,\u201d Schuette explained. \u201cYou then set some clear expectations for each of those settings and they\u2019re stated in positive terms. After that you\u2019re going to explicitly teach those behaviors to your staff first and then to students.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThen you acknowledge those positive behaviors in hopes that you\u2019ll start to see those negative behaviors or unwanted behaviors subside a little bit,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group noted instances of elementary students being sent to the office are down 80 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

In other business, board members shared various reports from last month\u2019s Ohio School Boards Association Capital Conference, which was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The board named John Auld as president pro-tem for the January organizational meeting, and board members agreed to re-appoint Lonnie Nedderman as Crestview\u2019s representative to the Vantage Career Center Board of Education. He\u2019ll serve a three-year term, beginning January 1, 2021. The board also accepted the resignation of middle school baseball coach Doyle Sheets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A donation of $3,500 was accepted from Van Wert Federal Savings Bank for Crestview Middle School and High School athletics. The board also accepted the transfer of $5,885.95 in Coronavirus Relief Funds from Tully Township, and approved the purchase of a handicap-accessible bus from Cardinal Bus Sales and Service for $105,570.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A brief discussion was held about meeting dates for 2021. The preliminary calendar calls for meetings to be held at 6 p.m. on the third Monday of each month, except for January and December, when meetings will be held the second Monday, and March, when the meeting will be held the fourth Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crestview\u2019s annual organizational meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Monday, January 11, 2021, followed by a budget hearing and regular January meeting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
