What I’ve Learned in Ten Years
By Steve Lutzke, District Superintendent
Parkview is a Great Place to Call Home I moved to the Parkview School District in July 2007, which means I just finished year number ten as super-intendent. I can’t believe how fast the time has gone! Recently I was reflecting on my time at Parkview and the thought “Parkview is a great place to call home” popped into my head. Below are some reasons why I can’t think of a better place to live, work and to raise a family.
1. Parkview schools provide a high quality education for all kids
The students at Parkview receive a challenging curricu-lum and are held to high standards. The trend lines for our state and district assessments continue to move in an upward direction. To be sure, there is more work to be done to ensure every student graduates fully pre-pared to be successful in college or career, but our data reflects we are moving in the right direction! Parkview teachers and staff are highly skilled, dedicat-ed educators with a commitment to helping every stu-dent excel. 2. Students in the Parkview schools have the oppor-tunity to participate in many quality activities Parkview has improved and expanded the opportuni-ties available to students. Whether it is Destination Imagination, Modern-Woodman Oratory Contest, Math Team, FFA, Debate, Show Choir, or one of our many sports teams, students learn many valuable life lessons by participating in these activities. Parkview is continually trying to enhance these opportunities and, for the first time ever, will be hosting a show choir competition at Parkview High School on January 6, 2018. This show choir activity will be a focal point for our district and community and provide an outstanding learning opportunity for our students. The Show Choir event will also allow those from other parts of the state and Midwest to discover our wonderful commu-nity. 3. Because of the strong support from the Parkview community, our students have wonderful, up-to-date facilities in which to learn The 2014 referendum provided the funding to modern-ize and repair our schools and resulted in over a half a million dollars per year cost savings by consolidating the schools into two buildings. These updated facilities are used not only by students but the community as well. The fitness center is used daily by community members and during inclement weather we routinely have community members using our buildings for their daily walk. Last winter we offered the first community education class. Twelve community members took an art class, taught by Lauren Kultgen our Parkview HS art teacher. Be on the lookout for more community educa-tion classes during the 2017-18 school year. 4. Lastly, the small town feel of our school district makes Parkview an attractive place to reside It is very easy to connect with school or community officials to find answers, provide input or get involved. Each entity in the District is filled with safe, friendly neighborhoods that look out for each other. Our resi-dents take pride in their communities, which is reflect-ed in the increase of families moving to the area. In 2007, I didn’t know a thing about the Parkview Dis-trict or surrounding area and took a big chance relo-cating to the area. Ten years later, I know I made the right decision. Have a great 2017-18 school year!
Parkview School District Online Registration July 24 - August 11
A reminder to register your students for the upcoming school year. This can be done by following the necessary
steps online through their Family Access (Skyward) account. A tutorial is available on the website that can be
used to help families complete all of the steps that are part of the online registration process. Online registration
will have the same format as last year; so hopefully most families will be familiar with the process.
In order to encourage families to register their students in a timely manner, the usual online payment fee of
$2.00 per transaction through RevTrak will again be waived during the registration enrollment period through
August 11th.
Assistance with the online registration is available on August 9th (9 a.m. - noon) and August 10th (noon-7 p.m.).
Staff members will help you register using computers provided by the district and will follow the exact same
steps as families who register online at home or at another off-site location using their Family Access (Skyward)
account.

Gio Elrod, Jordan Rummelhoff, Ayda Klein, Annalaura Pestor and Maddie V. with Ms. Peggy Harnack in 4th grade jumpstart
language arts class during summer school. More summer school photos inside.
PES students had a wide variety of topics to learn about in summer school. There were jumpstart classes for
each grade level for language arts and math to make sure students are prepared for the next grade level. Clas-
ses were also offered in baseball, basketball, soccer and let’s play ball for fun and fitness. Band students had the
opportunity for individual lessons one – two times a week as well as an opportunity to play as a group. Students
could travel via “Road Trip across America” and “Reading Restaurant.” In “Road Trip across America” they visit-
ed different regions and learned geography, history people and fun customs. In “Reading Restaurant” students
ate their way around the world. They read a story from the country, learned some facts, perhaps watched a
video, had a snack with food from the country and played a game from that country. “Bead and Weave” and
“Needle and Thread” offered hands on crafting classes. In bead and weave they made jewelry and learned
braiding and finger weaving (also called finger crocheting). In needle and thread students learned stitches and
made pin cushions, pillows, tote bags, small hand pieced quilts and other items. In the German class students
had another opportunity to learn about a different culture. They learned basic German words and phrases as
well as learning about the culture and the county itself. They sampled some foods as well. In German class they
learned German phrases asking how old are you, what is your name, where do you live and talked about their
families in German.” Wer is’t in deiner familie?” is German for “who is in your family?” Family members in-
clude: mutter (mother), vater (father), schwester (sister) and bruder (brother). Games, games, games class
offered students the opportunity to play a variety of board and card games. Zumba kids offered students anoth-
er way to be active and learn that fitness can be fun. Technology class offered students the opportunity to do
computer programming. They created their own games on the computer as well as learned to program robots.
They worked with a variety of different programs including Scratch, Python, Logo, Dash, Dot and Ozobot.
Summer School Offered Enrichment and a
Jumpstart on Fall
Parkview Voice 2 August 2017
What’s “Cookin” in Food Service for
the 2017-18 School Year
The cafeteria is prepped and ready to serve your
child. We will be serving breakfast and lunch
school every day (as listed on the menus). Break-
fast Program will start September 5th at PES and
PHS/PJHS. The school cafeteria serves a healthy
breakfast and lunch following State and National
guidelines. As part of the National School Break-
fast and Lunch Programs we are obligated to fol-
low all regulations as set forth by law. We are re-
quired to follow the “Healthy Hunger Free Kids
Act”. This law stipulates the serving sizes, calories
and nutritional guidelines as it pertains to all food
offered for sale during the school day. The “Smart
Snacks Rule” limits the type of snacks we can sell
and prohibits us from allowing a student to pur-
chase a second meal at the meal cost. A student
may still purchase items to make a second meal
but all items for that second meal have to be
charged individually which will be a higher cost
than the meal cost. The federal requirements
mandate that each student buying a breakfast or
lunch must select a fruit or vegetable to go with
their meal or we are required to charge them indi-
vidual prices for every item on their tray. In other
words if a student does not select a fruit or vegeta-
ble they will be charged more money than what a
meal normally costs and if they receive free or re-
duced price meals they will not be able to receive
their meal at the free or reduced cost unless they
select a fruit or vegetable.
We encourage all students to take a full meal. In
doing so we are in compliance with our reimbursa-
ble meal program. We will continue to tell the
students who do not have a complete meal to go
back and make another selection to avoid being
charged the extra costs.
We are required to offer milk with every meal;
however your child does not have to select the
milk as an option. If they do not select the milk
Federal Regulations do not permit us to offer an-
other drink in its place.
2017/2018 Lunch & Breakfast Prices
Lunch - student $2.85
Lunch - student reduced $.40
Lunch - adult $3.50
Breakfast - student $1.50
Breakfast - student reduced .30

What are the requirements for a complete reim-
bursable meal?

Offer versus Serve
A student must take the required amount in any 3
of the Food Groups in the lunch requirement and
one of these must be a fruit or vegetable. We en-
courage students to take the complete meal. Be-
cause of federal laws an alteration to the require-
ments could result in extra costs. Please keep in
mind all meals must follow specific guidelines for
calories, saturated fat, trans fat and sodium.
It should be noted that students at the Jr. High/
High School level do have more freedom in making
their meal choices with a wider variety of options.
Breakfast and lunch, as well as ala carte and a com-
plete Salad Bar are offered daily. The Salad Bar con-
sists of meat or meat alternative, vegetable, fruit,
grain and milk selections to make it a completely
reimbursable meal. Students wishing to purchase
extra items from the Salad Bar along with their regu-
lar lunch will be charged extra for those items.
Please refer to the postings on the salad bar for the
list of extra charges. There is also information re-
garding the “Salad Bar Items” and “How to Build a
Salad”, as well as Salad Bar etiquette.
Payment Procedures
Check made payable to Parkview School District
Cash in an envelope with your child’s name on it
Online (please contact Ann Buehl at 879-2994 Ext. 5127 to set up an account). We do not accept credit cards at the schools but they can be used for your online pay-ments. (There is a transaction fee for using this service.) You are able to view balances, check your child’s spending habits, and view your family account statements.
If you wish not to have your child purchase any ala
carte items please notify us and we can put a block
on the purchase (879-2994 ext. 6125). Our food
service team in each school works to make sure that
every child has a meal available every day. It is the
parent’s responsibility to make sure their children
have either a meal from home or funds available in
their account each day to pay for a school meal pro-
vided by our Food Service Team. Please refer to the
2017-18 student handbooks for the District’s poli-
cies at PES and PHS for charging of food. There is no
charging of milk or breakfast at either building. We
do have a low balance call-home system that goes
out twice a week if the family account is $10.00 or
less. Also please remember the District is required
follow the Health Department /Department of Public
Instruction procedures which do not allow us to
bring food to school for “other” students. You can
bring food from outside sources for your own child
but not for anyone else. This is considered a viola-
tion in regards to the competitive food regulations.
This information can also be found in the student
handbooks and there will be more on this topic in a
future Voice article.
The district has a new policy was implemented this
past spring. It is called the “Sharing Table”. Rules
and regulations are enclosed with the attachment
The Unpaid Meal Policy/Challenge is also included
with this article. Please contact me at 879-2994 ext.
6123 if you have any questions in regards to the
above information.
Fact Sheet For Sharing Tables
Schools Participating In The School Nutrition Pro-
grams
Considerations for use of sharing tables:
1. Administrative and food service staff at all
schools with sharing tables are making a conscien-
tious effort to be good stewards of the federal and
state funding and USDA Foods received for the
school meal and afterschool snack programs. Addi-
tional measures have been taken to minimize waste.
The items on the sharing table will be limited to
school meal or snack components including condi-
ments. Food items brought from home or prepared
by another food service establishment are excluded.
Fruit and vegetables with an edible peel (e.g., apples,
baby carrot) should be washed and pre-wrapped or
packaged for meal service if these items are allowed
to be placed on the sharing table. The sharing table
will be a designated table, counter, cart, or space
where students can place unconsumed breakfast,
lunch, or afterschool snack components that they
choose not to eat/or drink. Food on the sharing table
is not for adults. Sharing tables will have appropriate
signage so it is not mistaken as part of the regular
meal offerings. Items reserved need to be inspected
by a designated food service staff to ensure that the
original packaging is maintained in sound condition.
This employee will receive training so the SOP for the
sharing table is followed. DPI is not obligated, liable
or responsible for any action or inaction taken by the
School Food Authority (SFA).
763 Food Service Automated System Policy
Students in the District shall have an opportunity to
participate in the federally funded National School
Breakfast Program (NSBP), the National School Lunch
Program (NSLP) and the Wisconsin School Day Milk
Program (WSDMP). All of these programs allow stu-
dents to participate by paying for these services, or for
those who qualify, they can receive these services for
free or reduced price. The business manager for the
school district or designee shall manage the programs
in accordance with the USDA guidelines.
District meal and milk prices shall be established by
the school board. In addition to the NSLP, NSBP and
WSDMP the Food Service Department may offer ala
carte food sales to students and staff and/or to com-
munity members for special events within the district.
Junior High, High School, and adults will not be al-
lowed to charge meals. Elementary students are al-
lowed two (2) charges for the lunch program. After
the second charge, a staff member will contact the
student’s parent/guardian by phone to inform them
that the student’s meal account is overdrawn. If no
contact is made after three attempts, a letter will be
sent home stating that the student’s account is over-
drawn and that they will begin receiving a bag lunch.
If no payment is received, and/or no payment plan is
agreed upon, elementary students will be served a
cheese sandwich, fruit, vegetable and milk, a reim-
bursable meal, which will be charged the daily cost of
a lunch, until the outstanding amounts are paid in full.
If the account balance is not paid in full, any monies
received will be applied to the unpaid balance. (A
breakfast or milk cannot be charged.)
If after exceeding the courtesy limit as established by
this policy, the parents and/or guardians continue to
fail to provide the elementary student(s) with a sack
lunch or lunch money, school district personnel may
be asked to intercede on behalf of the student(s) by
contacting the appropriate agencies.

Important Updates on 2017-2018
Busing and School Pictures
With online registration for the 2017-2018 school
year rapidly approaching, I wanted to reach out to
parents in regards to busing and pictures for the
upcoming school year.
2017-2018 Bus Routes
With registration moving completely online this year,
there will no longer be an Onsite Registration Day for
parents to meet with Kobussen representatives in
regards to busing for the upcoming school year. In-
stead, an online form has been added to the online
registration process, which will allow parents to re-
quest busing changes.
July 24th – August 11th 2017
As in previous years, every effort will be made to
maintain our students’ current bus drivers, routes,
and stops.
Parents may use the online registration process to
request special busing, such as to a babysitter, day-
care, etc., and submit Alternative Visual Confirma-
tion forms for students under the age of eight.
August 10th – August 17th 2017
After online registration is completed, the Kobussen
terminal will complete any modifications needed to
accommodate new students in the District.
August 18th 2017
Preliminary routes will be uploaded to Skyward Fam-
ily Access and can be viewed using the steps includ-
ed on this tutorial.
HOW TO VIEW YOUR CHILD’S BUSING INFORMATION
August 25th 2017
The Kobussen terminal will mail out letters to all par-
ents with busing information for the 2017-2018
school year.
August 26th – 31st 2017
Any minor changes that are necessary to accommo-
date new students will be made to Skyward Family
Access and parents will be reminded to check busing
information before the first day of school.
2017-2018 School Pictures
With registration moving completely online this year,
pictures will now be taken on the following dates.
Parkview Elementary School Students – August 30th
2017 (4pm – 7pm)
Pictures will be taken during the PES Back to School
Night/Open House
New Childcare Options are Now
Available at Parkview Elementary
School During recent conversations with parents choosing to
open enroll their preschool aged children out of the
Parkview School District, a number of parents stated
that the inability to find suitable daycare options was
a main driver in their decision to enroll their child in a
4K program outside of the District. In an effort to en-
sure that the needs of our students are being met, the
District recently contracted with Carol Olson, of the
Orfordville Afterschool Program, to provide additional
daycare options to resident families. As a result of
these efforts, we are happy to announce that the Or-
fordville After School Program will be adding Before
School and 4K Wraparound childcare services at
Parkview Elementary School.
Through this new collaboration, all parents will now
have the opportunity to sign up with the Orfordville
Afterschool Program to drop their school age child off
as early as 6am at Parkview Elementary School, and
pick them up as late as 6pm. In addition, all Parkview
4K students will now have an opportunity to attend
childcare and preschool in the same building. Infor-
mation about the Orfordville Afterschool Program and
the various childcare options its provides is included
below. Please note, there is a fee for these childcare
services.
The Orfordville After School Program
The Orfordville Afterschool Program is operated by
Carol Olson, a 1981 graduate of Parkview High School
with a over 30 years of experience as a state licensed
childcare provider and elementary school teacher. The
program was created by Lisa Nyman in Footville Ele-
mentary and has offered childcare at Parkview Ele-
mentary School continuously since that time.
NEW! Before School Care (ages 4-12) – 6:00am –
8:00am at Parkview Elementary School
NEW! AM 4K Care (age 4) – 8:00am – 12:00pm at
Parkview Elementary School
NEW! PM 4K Care (age 4) – 11:00am – 3:00pm at
Parkview Elementary School
Afterschool Care (ages 4-12) – 3:00pm – 6:00pm at

Childcare options for planned and unplanned non-
school days, 2-hour delay days, early release days,
and summer childcare are also available at Parkview
Elementary School.

tions, please contact Carol Olson at 608-931-3945 or

What’s “Cookin” (Continued from page 2)
Students will not be allowed to charge meals dur-
ing the last 10 days of the school year. All out-
standing balances must be paid by the final day of
student attendance in the current school year.
The deadline to deposit money into lunch accounts
for the day will be set at 11:00 am to allow food
service personal to post the amount to the account
and to avoid delays in preparation for serving
lunch. All money deposited after this deadline will
not show up until the next school day; unless an
exception is made based on one of the scenarios
below:
1. If a student does not have money in their ac-
count, but has money to deposit when standing at
the register to check out; the student will be sent
to the supervisor in the lunchroom – they will di-
rect this student to the office to deposit the mon-
ey. The Business Manager or secretary will then
deposit the money and the student will receive a
receipt. The student can come back to the lunch-
room to eat when the deposit is made.
2. If a student brings money to be deposited after
11:00 am, the student will be sent to deposit the
money in the main office and will be given a re-
ceipt.
3. If a student does not have money in the account
and has gone through the line and is at the regis-
ter, the student will be sent to the office with their
tray and a phone call home will be made by the
student to let the family know money needs to be
deposited in the lunch account.
4. If a student comes through the lunch line more
than one day without money in their account, the
student will be sent to the supervisor in the lunch-
room and then to the office with their tray and a
phone call home will be made by administration to
let the family know money needs to be deposited
in the lunch account. The student will remain in
the office to eat lunch. The lunch supervisor will
keep track of who the student is and the following
day the supervisor will check to see if the student
has money in the account. If they do not have
money in the account, they will not be allowed to
get into the line.

Members of Parkview School Dis-
trict Win Safety Room Challenge
MADISON – Gary Lewis, Joel Monk, Donna Nolan,
Connie Sturkey and Michael Yarbrough of the
Parkview School District won the group prize in the
Wisconsin Association of School Business Officials
(WASBO) Safety Room Challenge at the WASBO Cus-
todial & Maintenance Conference at Waunakee High
School, June 21.
In the Safety Room Challenge, teams or individuals
were asked to tour a mechanical and woodshop
room, identify potential hazards and safety concerns,
and explain how they should be remedied. Some
possible answers: blocked emergency exit, empty
first aid kit, ammonia and bleach bottles together,
and tools left out and unguarded.
The score was based on the number of accurate an-
swers provided in just two and a half minutes. The
Parkview School District team earned the most
points with 22 correct answers out of 39 possible.
The WASBO Custodial & Maintenance Conference is
held in several Wisconsin locations annually and fea-
tures practical, hands-on knowledge that school per-
sonnel can implement in their districts. Learn more
information at www.wasbo.com/custodial.
WASBO provides professional development for
school business staff, fosters a network of support,
and advocates for funding that ensures outstanding
educational opportunities for all children in Wiscon-
sin.

PES is adding Makerspace
Parkview Elementary is adding a Makerspace...just in
time to welcome our students back to school!
As we are starting out, we are looking for some low
tech items to get the ball rolling. The following items
are needed:
1. Tubes of all kinds (toilet paper, paper towel, wrap-
ping paper)
2. Egg cartons
3. Broken appliances destined for the landfill (VCR's,
CD-players, toasters, blenders, even old computers).
Please, NO monitors, televisions, or cameras!
4. Old toys with moving parts that might be fun to
take apart with a screwdriver...
We currently have drop-offs at the Orfordville Public
Library and at 100 Proof Design Co. Special thanks to
Sarah Titus Strunz and Becky Strupp for helping us
with this endeavor.

Dual-Sport Participation Policy
Rationale
Parkview seeks to provide quality co-curricular ath-
letic opportunities for its students. Some students
have talents and abilities, which they have a desire
to contribute to more than one team in a particular
athletic season, and both of these teams can benefit.
Some activities may struggle with low numbers, and
this can boost participation in those sports.
Students Participating in Two Activities during the
Same Season
1. Students are allowed to participate in two co-
curricular sports activities during the same season.
Students wishing to participate in two sports during
the same season will need to obtain a request form
from the athletic director and follow the guidelines
set down by the athletic department involving dual
sport participation.
2. Students are not allowed to participate in open
gyms, as well as other non-school competition in
another sport, on the same day they are partici-
pating in a school-sponsored co-curricular sports
activity without permission from the head coaches
of the sports in which they are currently partici-
pating as well as the building principal.
Rules of Dual-Sport Participation
1. A student who wishes to participate in two sports
during the same season must designate a primary
sport before the beginning of the first appointed date
of practice.
2. A primary sport is defined, as the sport that takes
precedence over another sport in the event there is a
conflict of schedule or any other matter that could
lead to a conflict. The student must adhere to the pri-
mary sport in the event of any and all conflicts of
schedule. If one sport has a contest and the other has
practice, the contest will take precedence.
3. The student must practice in both sports and the
amount of practice time must meet the agreed re-
quirements of the head coaches of those sports in-
volved.
4. Approval may be denied because of academic con-
cerns at any time during the sport season. The athlete
then will participate in the primary sport only.
5. The student and parents or legal guardians, must
sign the Dual Sport Participation Contract before the
first practice session he or she attends.
6. In the event that a student is disciplined for any
infraction in a specific sport, the consequence will also
be applied to the second sport in the season of dual
participation. For Example - Student A is suspended
for a code violation. The suspension is to be served for
both the primary sport and non-primary sport.
7. The Athletic Director (AD) and the High School Prin-
cipal will serve in the capacity of advisors and final
judgments on matters concerning dual-sports partici-
pation.
Steps in the Process
1. Student emails the AD with a meeting request (at
least 21 days before season start date).
2. AD meets with student-athlete to discuss the re-
quest and review associated guidelines.
3. AD notifies coaches and assists in scheduling a plan-
ning meeting for the coaches.
4. Upon completion of coach planning meeting, AD
schedules a meeting between student-athlete, par-
ents, and coaches. Upon completion, all involved will
sign the Dual Sport Participation Contract.
