The winter sports season is gearing up with basketball games/wrestling meets starting the week of November 26 – December 1. We encourage everyone to get out and support our student-athletes.The Academic Mentoring Program is in full swing this year. We currently have several mentors/mentorees for the academic program this year in grades 1-6. With this program high school kids are matched up with an elementary student and are asked to build relationships with one another or work on academics. We’re excited to have so many of our kids willing to participate in the programs and we thank Mrs. Fischer for setting-up and running this activity again this year.We’d like to give special thanks to Mrs. Wuestewald, Mr. Poessnecker, Mrs. Schafer and Mrs. Bell for their hard work to put on another outstanding Veteran’s Day Program again this year. The program was held on 11-09-18, with a coffee being held at 9:00 a.m., followed by the Vet’s Program at 10:00 a.m. The program is always so well attended, and is an exciting time to recognize all our past and present veterans for their service.On Wednesday, November 14th, SSCS junior class again attended the Dodge County – County Government Day in Fremont. On this day, the students had the opportunity to learn about what the various county employees do while working at the Dodge County Court House. After an opening ceremony the students were broke into 5 groups and actually rotated around to each entity where they were able to see the individuals actually doing their jobs. The Scribner Pool Committee partnered with the school to put on a supper/family movie night on November 16th. The potato bar was served from 5:30-7:00, followed by the movies starting at 7:00 p.m. We hope you were able to take in this event and enjoyed a relaxing night with friends.

The school year is about half way done! This year the middle school science classes are working hard and having fun! 7th graders are eager to start dissecting worms, but they have a long way to go before they get to do that. Right now, the 7th graders are finished their first textbook called The Human Body. In this book the students learned about body systems and how the body works. The next book we will begin studying will be Ecology and the Environment. The 7th grade will be raising rainbow trout eggs in an aquarium provided by the Nebraska Game & Parks in January. The students are very excited to see how they grow and get a chance to dissect a trout (not the ones we raise!)The 8th graders finished their first text book about Space. We were able to learn about the Solar Eclipse we had at the beginning of the school year. They are currently studying about the Earth! They will be learning some very interesting information about plate tectonics, volcanos, earthquakes and Pangea. They will have to research and create a power point about a volcano. left8572500The freshmen are learning the basics about chemistry right now. They have been studying the periodic table and how the elements are in their certain order in the periodic table. We have also covered the structure of atoms. We will soon be studying about motion, forces, and waves. The science classes have been having a fun learning experience this year!Life Skills Physical Education has been involved in some different activities this year. To start the year, they studied Bow Hunter Education, became certified to hunt with a bow and arrow, they are very efficient with shooting a bow and arrow. Students will be taking the Boater Safety Course and will become certified to drive a boat or personal water craft. We will also learn about different fish in Nebraska waters and will learn more about fishing. They will also learn about trapping and why it is important to the ecosystem. The students are extremely excited! We will also study about first aid and safety and how to create healthy eating habits. The Strength and Conditioning classes have been hard at work trying to improve themselves physically as well as mentally. The students like to take this opportunity to improve their overall strength and health. Each student sets goals that they will try to accomplish!NOTES FROM THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR’S DESKGood Day to All, As I write this right now, the Winter Activity Season is upon us. It will be busy. One-Act Play Production competed in District Play Competition on Nov. 27 at Humphrey St. Francis. Mrs. Peters, Mr. Stevens and the cast and crew have worked hard and put on a really cute play. From watching the performances, this is their best one yet. Nice Job to everybody in One-Act. We are in a COOP with Logan View with Girl’s and Boys’ Basketball. It is a busy season. The kids have worked hard and their first official game will be against Oakland-Craig on Thursday November 29. We do host one varsity contest vs. Tekamah-Herman on Friday December 14. JV Girl’s will tip off at 4:00 pm. We also host all the Junior High basketball games and the C-Team basketball games. Please pay attention to the school calendar for those times and dates. Wrestling season has also started. We have six boys out for wrestling this year. We will host one dual this year on Tuesday December 18 vs. BRLD. Wrestling starts at 7:00pm. The team will also be going to various tournaments throughout the year starting this weekend when they travel to Howells on Dec. 1st.Christmas Concerts are just around the corner. Mr. Poessnecker and the kids are working hard to get ready for them. The Elementary Concert is scheduled for Thurs., December 13 at 7:00 pm, and the Jr/Sr. High School Concert is scheduled for Sun., December 16 also at 7:00 p.m. in the gym. Everybody is invited. Please come and enjoy the music.In case you have not heard, Scribner-Snyder has an esports Team. We are the smallest school in the state with a team. This is a club team and a featured article is also included in this newsletter. It is not sanctioned by the NSAA. For those who don’t know what esports is, it is on-line gaming in a team environment. We have seven players on the team under the guidance of Mrs. Linda Schafer. The kids have been practicing and they are working closely with the esports Team at Midland University. Their first competition is on December 11 vs. Amherst at 3:45 p.m. The team will then be in full motion with the Spring Season. This has been an interesting learning experience for all of us. The kids are excited. I hope this continues to build.As always, I would like to say Thank You to all the parents and community members for their support of all the activities here at Scribner-Snyder Community School. The kids, coaches, sponsors, and administration are all very appreciative. I wish all of you a very Happy Holiday Season.Mr. Deron MeyerActivities DirectorScribner-Snyder Community Schools NEWS FROM THE 5th GRADE ROOMThe 5th grade class just finished their power point projects on an explorer last week. In December they will be working on a power point about Christmas in another country. The students enjoy researching for the project and presenting their projects to the class.The students are busy trying to reach their reading goal each month. Every month they are required to read one chapter book. It is great to see them reading and discussing which books are good to read. The 5th grade class have been reading many of the Golden right000Sower books for extra points. I have been reading All Rise for the Honorable Perry T. Cook to the class, which is also a Golden Sower book. The class has enjoyed this book and they can’t wait for the ending. So far the top books are Garvey’s Choice and Soar.Christmas is approaching quickly so we will be busy getting our room decorated for the holiday season. The sounds from the Music room have been getting everyone ready for the holiday season.After Christmas break we will begin preparing for the NESA tests. We start taking practice tests to help us prepare for the test that takes place in April. The students have been studying prefixes, suffixes, root words and genres. In Math class we have been working on fractions and decimals. We are just beginning the unit on multiplication with whole numbers and decimalsThe students have been doing an excellent job in the classroom and I hope it continues throughout the year.For Scribner-Snyder's inaugural eSports team, it's Game On!By Tyler Dahlgrenright1079500Like any kid who grew up in the 90s will tell you, there aren’t many ways to better spend a night than cruising along the sandy shores of Koopa Troopa Beach or ripping down the intergalactic highway better known as Rainbow Road.Huddled around a console (which, back in my gaming prime, was the Nintendo 64), powered by Mountain Dew and Cool Ranch Doritos, those late-night Mario Kart marathons were serious matters to my friends and I.Twenty years later, they’re just good memories. Except for Bowser’s Castle. I have no fond memories of Bowser’s Castle and never wish to return.So it’s fitting that the story of Scribner-Snyder’s eSports team got its start on a game night last winter. Mario Kart, an all-time classic, eventually gave way to Fortnite, a battle royale game for up to 100 players that swept the video-game universe in 2017.Video games can catch a bad rap from time to time, but Linda Schafer, the adult sponsor overseeing that particular game night, observed a group of kids interacting with each other in ways she’d never seen before and started to hatch an idea.“I saw more good things in their gaming than I was seeing bad things,” said the K-12 coding, keyboarding and programming teacher. “I kept watching and listening in on the conversations they were having and the collaboration that was taking place.”Then, when glancing over a technology integration site, Schafer came across a post from Louisville Public Schools, who was searching for teams to compete against in eSports.“I did a ton of research, and kept thinking back to the problem-solving, collaboration and communication I saw from the kids,” Schafer said. “I knew there was something to this, so I went to the principal and said ‘I’d like to start an eSports team.’”There’s something you need to know about Scribner-Snyder.Even before it became the smallest district in the state to offer eSports, the place prioritizes opportunities. The administration team and school board think ahead. They know they’re preparing students for jobs that don’t even exist yet.“I have been here for eight years,” said Deron Meyer, activities director and network systems administrator for the district. “Anything dealing with technology, the school board here has been very receptive to having us out there in front as far as we can be.”Schafer teaches computer science to students from the time they’re five until they’re seniors in high school. Scribner-Snyder offers beginning, intermediate and capstone coding classes, and every high school freshman takes a coding course.She has 29 elementary students in her Code Club. The district has operated on one-to-one computing for the last eight years. She’s used to being supported.“My principal said ‘Go for it!’” Schafer said.Corben Burger is a senior, and Schafer calls him one of the more social kids on the inaugural Scribner-Snyder eSports team.“There are kids on the team that, on a day-to-day basis, you don’t see socializing with other people much,” Schafer explains. “So the interaction is a big plus.”Burger grew up playing video games. He remembers the Playstation 2 (man, I feel old) and Halo 3 battles with his two brothers. He credits them for his competitive gaming streak.Burger had given some thought in passing to playing eSports. Down the highway in Fremont, Midland University offers a team. One of the gamers from Midland actually volunteered to speak with the team and work on strategies, too.But being one of two seniors on his high school’s first ever eSports team?“It’s been kind of chaotic, at times, but overall this has been a really good experience,” Burger said.His favorite game is Counterstrike, which he plays at home on a computer he bought with money saved through work.“I play StarCraft II a lot, too, and that really helps me to improve on my micro and macro management skills,” Burger added.Schafer is at the school for optional practice sessions on Tuesday nights from 7-9 through the first semester. The second half of the school year, the team will ramp up practices to two or three times a week.Through the first semester, the team is competing on free computer games, including Overwatch and StarCraft II. They’ve held fundraisers for team shirts that they’ve designed, and the school recently purchased new gaming headsets for the kids.Scribner-Snyder is all in on its newest avenue for student opportunity. Meyer, who coaches on the Logan View/Scribner-Snyder football staff, views eSports like any other sport.“The mindset itself is an athletic mindset, like going out for football or basketball, and this is being treated just like any other sports team,” Meyer said. "A couple of our players have come up and said 'You have coding club? That's so cool.'"When Schafer got the go-ahead, she sat down and wrote a six-page document containing a code of conduct and expectations. She interviewed the school’s athletic coaches and framed it from what she took away from those conversations. The document will serve as the base for something she sees expanding greatly in the future.“I am trying to build this up,” Schafer said. “This is a perfect fit for our kids. I want it to grow. That’s the game plan. I want it to be something the kids can look forward to.”Schafer, admittedly, is not a gamer. Far from it, actually, but when she saw the excitement her idea brought to students who weren’t overly involved in other school-sanctioned activities, there wasn’t any turning back.She attended TeacherCon, a conference held by , for a week of training in computer science, and continued to research and expand her knowledge on eSports.“That was a really awesome experience,” she said.Next semester, Burger and his teammates will compete in console games against teams throughout the state. Their AD will be in their corner, cheering them on.“Other AD’s kind of look at me sideways,” Meyer said. “I just tell them, ‘Hey, this is something that is coming.’ You have Midland and Bellevue and many other schools offering scholarships. eSports is coming, and at Scribner-Snyder, we are willing to look at any avenues that might provide our kids additional opportunities.”It’s like Schafer told her team at one of their first gatherings.“If you get really good at this, it could turn into another opportunity for a scholarship,” she said. “For them to have this chance, and to see them so excited about it, that’s amazing to me.”Scribner-Snyder’s eSports team is connected, fully charged and ready to go.left378460Holiday Break—Students will be dismissed for the Christmas Break at 1:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 21st.

The day began with legion members making introduction of the various offices in county government, followed by each person giving the students information of what they do and what they will see on the tour. The judge swore each person in and the day was off and running. Students were escorted around the courthouse by veterans from the American Legion, not only were the students getting a lesson in county government, but they were able to listen to stories from local veterans. The afternoon session was put on by the Dodge County sheriff’s office. Deputy Franks had the students participate in a “Dodge County” game of Jeopardy. Sheriff Hespen and Deputy Franks had a kind of show and tell with the students, showing them some of the things that they have confiscated over the years. For a lot of the students, their only exposure to country government is to get their driver’s license. This day is designed to show them it is much more than that.

Some of the students who donated blood included, back; Peyton Wolford, Corben Burger, Austin Peters, James Hudson, Justin Noel, front; Kaylin Niewohner, Johanna Thilliander, Ronee Fritcher and Seiko Medina.00Ms. Piper’s classes helped with the bi-annual blood drive that was held at S-S on Nov. 19th. Some of the students who donated blood included, back; Peyton Wolford, Corben Burger, Austin Peters, James Hudson, Justin Noel, front; Kaylin Niewohner, Johanna Thilliander, Ronee Fritcher and Seiko Medina.right508000 Biology: The overarching theme for this semester has been cells. Currently, students are understanding the structures and functions of the cell and will end the unit by building a cell model. To complete the unit, students will learn about how a cell is affected by its environment, how our cells obtain energy, and understand how genetics play a role in our cells. Medical Terminology and Health Careers: This year in Medical Terminology, students have been participating in job shadowing opportunities at Dinklage Medical Center and other various places. Students have been able to follow a variety of health career professional to help determine the medical career they would like to pursue. Students will continue shadowing throughout the second semester of school as well. Chemistry: This group of students have been working hard throughout this semester. Students have been learning how to convert between atomic mass, moles, and atoms. Next, students learned about the relationship frequency and wavelength of light. Needless to say, students have been giving their calculators a workout. We will move away from the calculators to finish up the year by talking about electron configuration and chemical bonding. Anatomy and Physiology: The Anatomy class is making its way through the systems of the body. Students have learned about anatomical position and the types of cells and tissues in the body. Also, they completed a unit over the integumentary system where they researched many diseases that affect the skin and even got to build a model of the skin using cake! Students are now making their way through the skeletal system and muscular system. They will feel a sense of accomplishment as they master all the bones and muscles of the body by the end of the semester. Standard Science: Standard science is currently in our chemistry unit. This unit students have been learning the parts of an atom and understanding how atoms bond together. The next topics to be discussed include the law of conservation of mass, chemical reactions, and acid/bases. This unit always leads to lots of interesting experiments towards the end of the school year. ----------------------------------------------------------------------News from the 4th Grade ClassThis year’s 4th grade class consists of 15 energetic students. With 12 boys and 3 girls, they definitely keep the classroom a very lively place. We have one new student who joined our class about a month ago. Gaavyn Jindra has been a delight to have in our class and fits in very well. 286321583185000This 1st semester has been very exciting and challenging for this group of 4th graders. To begin with, we have a new math series and it is definitely a change from what the students were used to. However we are well into our 3rd of 8 units and the students have adjusted very nicely and continue to be open minded when it comes to the new ways of solving problems. Thanks to some grants from Debby Durham and the Fremont Area Foundation the 4th graders have had the opportunity to take part in a 3 time visit from world traveler and author Dean Jacobs. Dean 1st came to our school in September giving 2 different presentations to the entire elementary school. Then in October just the 4th graders got to spend the day at the Henry Doorly Zoo with Dean taking an in depth look at the zoo’s aquarium and gorilla exhibit. Dean will make his final appearance with the 4th graders next week. During each of the visits with Dean, he has focused on teaching the students that the world is a big place and each one of them must be open minded to learning and exploring everything that is around. I have no doubt that every day with this group of 4th graders will continue to be exciting, challenging, and rewarding. As always I am looking forward to all those things and much more. Mrs. Rangeloff Christmas concerts planned at S-SAs Mother Nature decides to skip fall to go straight to winter quickly, the students in the Scribner-Snyder Music Department prepare for the winter concerts. The elementary concert is set to hit the stage on Thursday, December 13th at 7pm. The students are preparing new arrangements of the traditional Christmas songs that we all consider to be familiar seasonal songs. Be ready to rock the night away to the tunes of Jingle Bell Jukebox.2349514585950025908001586230Above: Tanner Pitts, Laythen Streit, and Noah Banks were among the choir members who performed at the Jr./Sr. Fall Concert earlier this month.

We appreciate the attendance to the Fall Concert and will present music of the season by both the junior high and senior high musicians.Seven high school choral students were selected to and performed with the East Husker Conference Choral Clinic. Noah Banks, Tanner Pitts, Laythen Streit, Elissa Dames, Jillian Dames, and Machara Jusino went to Oakland on November 5 and spent the day rehearsing music with students from other conference schools followed by a performance that evening. It is always a great experience to since with a mass choir and work under the direction of a new director.right1961515Members of the S-S Junior Class will be selling freshly baked Christmas cookie trays and European Trees prior to the elementary concert @ 6 p.m. on Dec. 13th.020000Members of the S-S Junior Class will be selling freshly baked Christmas cookie trays and European Trees prior to the elementary concert @ 6 p.m. on Dec. 13th.-13335043434000right4946650All of the students in the music department as well as myself truly appreciate all the support you give throughout the year. We look forward to seeing you at our performances!The Scribner-Snyder FFA chapter has done many exciting actives so far this school year. Students have been participating in fundraisers, contests, convention, community service, and much more. FFA has done a variety of fundraisers, such as working the concession stands at sporting events, and selling fruit, meat, cheese, and sweets this year. We appreciate all of the support from the community in these fundraisers. This money helps us to attend conferences and conventions throughout the year. In addition, fundraisers help us to provide for the community as community service plays a huge role in our FFA chapter. The chapter is constantly helping the community by cleaning up the highway, sponsoring a food drive at the school, working at the Faith Food Pantry, picking up recyclable items throughout the school, helping at the library’s Tannenbaum Festival and donating a baskets for charitable causes. The “I CAN Make a Difference” food drive is kicked off during American Education Week each year. This is when all of the classes Pre K- 12 donate nonperishable food items, toiletries and paper products for the Faith Food Pantry. This year the elementary classes are competing for breakfast, cookies, or candy; whereas the middle and high school have a goal of 500 items. If the goal is reached, they will be rewarded with a movie afternoon on December 21. We are always looking for opportunities to help in the community, contact Mrs. Ryun at the high school (402-664-2567 or mryun@) if you have an opportunity. Three members were lucky enough to experience the National FFA Convention this year in Indianapolis, Indiana. We thank Christy Stout for coming along and serving as an additional sponsor. Everyone had a good time attending sessions, a workshop on Empowering Women in Agriculture, listening to keynote speakers, visiting Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and obtaining information from the Career Expo!-381001143000Greenhand Night is when members present the FFA Creed, speeches and demonstrate parliamentary procedure or agricultural demonstrations. This evening was held on Tuesday, November 13th. This year we had three junior high speeches, two FFA Creed speakers, an Employment Skills interview, and an Agricultural Demonstration. These district Leadership Development Events contest were held on Tuesday, November 20th at Midland University. Around 450 FFA students were in attendance from 13 different schools.? Faith Riggle competed in Employment Skills.? This involved submitting a resume, cover letter, and job application.? She then interviewed in front of a panel of three judges and wrote a follow up letter.? Faith earned a red ribbon.??The Agricultural Demonstration team consisted of Jenna Adams, Cailey Stout, and Faith Riggle.? Their demonstration consisted of properly tacking and grooming a horse.? They received a blue ribbon. Cailey Stout and Jenna Adams also presented the FFA Creed, and both earned blue ribbons.?Finally, in the junior high speaking events, there were three S-S members participating: Hannah Ryun, Jill Adams, and Ashley Stadt.? Ashley presented on the humane treatment of cattle, and she received a red ribbon. Jill spoke about dairy cattle and the process of milking to earn a blue ribbon.? Receiving a first place plaque and purple ribbon, earning a spot to represent S-S at State 4010025000Convention in April, with her speech on honey bees, is Hannah.??We would like to send out a special shout out to those from our community that donated their time to judge this event: Mishele and Dan Beerbohm, Pastor Bruce Schut, Beth Boyle, and Jordan Young.? This contest would not be possible without the generosity of their time!FFA members also got to participate in other contests this fall. These consisted of dairy evaluation and land evaluation. Dairy Evaluating helps students develop skills in dairy cattle selection. This contest took place in Wayne, NE at the Wayne County Fair Grounds. Several students from S-S attended, and brought home red, blue, and purple ribbons. Land Evaluation is a contest that focuses on soil – texture, slope, permeability, capability class, etc. This year, this contest was located near Tekamah, Nebraska. There were well over 300 participants in our regional contest; and Faith Riggle was the only S-S participant. A couple of conferences have been offered for students this year, also. District EDGE Conference was offered by the state FFA officers this fall, in Blair. A few Greenhand members attended workshops about engaging in the agricultural education classroom, building personal image, and communicating effectively. This is a great way to help Greenhand members (first year members) kick start their FFA career!An additional activity this fall has been the Farm Bureau’s Connecting Chapters. This is aimed at improving agricultural literacy in our schools. The first step in this program is to read a book to the elementary classrooms and then donate the book to the library or a classroom. This book focuses on different types of farming operations and how food gets to your plate. Then, a few chapter members attended a training session in Mead to learn how to present the provided lessons to the elementary students. Scribner-Snyder FFA Chapter received a binder with 15 lessons to teach elementary students more about agricultural literacy. We look forward to utilizing these during FFA Week when we do a lesson in the elementary classrooms. With all the work, does come fun. The FFA chapter is looking forward to secret Santa, and possibly a game/movie night in December.We are also looking forward to several events in the year to come; particularly our Barbeque and Auctions on Tuesday, March 19th. We hope to see you all there to enjoy the good food, silent auction items, friendships, and labor auction. Notes from Mr. RuzickaThe school year is well on the way. Students have settled in, and gotten into a daily routine. With Holiday breaks coming up, students are beginning to grow restless again though. There is always talk about what they are going to get for Christmas, and what they are doing, or where they are going for break. Thanksgiving has barely past, and Christmas music is already being requested to be played during study times. Uggh!My classroom is as busy as ever. There’s constantly kids coming and going for various reasons. The students are working hard, and are looking forward to coming back after Winter break for round 2 of MAPS testing. As winter sports season starts to kick off, kids are as busy as ever. On top of the daily school and athletic load, students are beginning to divert some of their focus to ACT preparation. Students are preparing to take ACT tests in December and puter Science draws attention at S-S313690041910000Interestingly enough, computer science jobs are going to be short about a million qualified employees by 2020 and in the future it is predicted to get even worse. There isn’t a job today that doesn’t require some type of computer knowledge. Here at SSCS we are ahead of the game when it comes to providing our students the computer knowledge needed to succeed. So talk to any student to find out what they are doing in computer science class. The computer science world has been hopping lately here at SSCS. We’ve been coding our first games in Coding 1. Coding 2 has made a 3-D ship using Blender and Unity, which is a C# coding language. AP Computer Science has been looking at Turtle programming and Javascript. Web Design has been creating an updated site map for the Musbach Museum website and learning how to use Dreamweaver, a web site development tool. The elementary classes have all had digital citizenship lessons and have been learning the keyboard and hand placement. The 7th graders created programs for the Veterans Day program using Word, and the Eighth grade has been working with online photo editing tools and website evaluation tools.December 3 - 9 is Computer Science Education Week! During this week the students K-12th Grade will spend one hour coding. We will be hosting an hour of code for the public downtown at the library this year. So plan on coming to the library Dec. 4 from 1 – 2 to learn about coding. Computer science students will be there to help anyone who would like to know more about computer science and what they are learning in school. So come out and help us celebrate and Hour of Code. ................
