Verona Area School District

Calendar changes
would focus on
parent-teacher time
Committees goal is improving
personalized learning plans
Scott Girard
Unified Newspaper Group

Though its not yet clear how, the Verona school day
or year could look a little different starting in 201516.
A Verona Area School District committee took steps
toward determining that answer Monday night, including possibly starting the year earlier or adjusting daily
start and end times.
The School Calendar Committee, consisting of district staff and parents, was formed this spring to provide
teachers more time to work with students and parents on
personalized learning plans (PLPs). The district set out
a goal of every student having a personalized learning
plan by 2016-17.
Those plans would spell out how each student learns,
their strongest subjects and other information to help
teachers best reach every student.
A major component of those plans, though, is parent
involvement. Without that, it could be hard for teachers

This past summer, Verona resident Michail Fedorov


successfully commanded a
mission to Mars. Working
with an international crew,
the 11-year-old collected
data about the planets climate, topography and temperature.
And no, 11 is not a
typo.
Fedorovs out-of-thisworld experience was made
possible through the U.S.
Space & Rocket Centers
Space Camp. In a spacemission simulator, he and a
16-member crew managed
to go to Mars and back.
Though his mission was
completed entirely from
Huntsville, Ala., it was about

as realistic as you can get


without leaving the atmosphere. Home to NASAs
official visitor information
center for the Marshall Space
Flight Center, Space Camp is
a week-long program geared
toward trainees interested in
science and aerospace.
Launched in 1982, the
camp has graduated more
than 600,000 trainees,
including Dottie MetcalfLindenburger, an astronaut
who took a NASA space
shuttle mission to the International Space Station.
According to the camp,
its a program that promotes science, technology, engineering and math
(STEM), while training
students and adults with
hands-on activities and missions based on teamwork,
leadership and decisionmaking. For Fedorov, who

Close
quarters
Firefighters move in with trucks

Photos by Mark Ignatowski

The Verona Fire Department will have a new $10 million station
sometime next year, and parts of the current station have to be
demolished to make room. That began last week with the move of
offices and daytime living space into trailers and the apparatus bay.

Itll have to get worse


before it gets better for
Verona Fire Department
firefighters.
Now that the old living
quarters have been torn
down to make way for
the new fire station, firefighters will have to spend
the winter living with the
trucks they use to respond
to emergencies. The departments living quarters have
been temporarily relocated
to the equipment bay and
the chiefs office to a trailer
outside.
Assistant chief Melissa
Helegesen said the crew will
have to spend the next half a
year there until the new station is ready for occupancy.
The department has
downgraded from a fullsize kitchen to a microwave and a pizza oven. The
crews day room is now a
few feet from their conference table and a few desks.
And everything is just a few
feet from engines, tenders,
hoses and helmets. Portable

restrooms are set back from


the rest of the living space,
but you know theyre still
close by. And if the tight
space wasnt enough, a
loud air compression for
the apparatus blares on and
off four or five times an
hour, Helegsen said.

ers will treat the garage as
their living space 12-hoursper-day, seven-days-perweek until the new station
is built. A few pieces of
equipment were moved outside to make room for the
temporary living quarters.
Helegesen said the garage
has never been heated
above 50 degrees, but the
department plans to try to
keep the area heated during
the winter.
A completion date for the
new station has not yet been
set, but a foundation has
been poured and construction will continue through
the fall and winter.

Taco Bell plans return

Enrollment
numbers still low

Verona Press editor

If you go

Taco Bell is back, with a


goal of starting construction
this year.
The comments the Plan
Commission gave in August
about a plan to put the ubiquitous Mexican-themed fastfood restaurant along East
Verona Avenue were mostly about minor issues, and
Monday it will return with
a final site plan and a public
hearing for conditional use
permits (for a restaurant and
a drive-through window).
The commission will also
get a first look at plans for
a fifth building at Liberty
Business Park a mixeduse commercial/office
building in front of the
planned hotel and another
retail building on East Verona Avenue.
The Taco Bell would be
the fifth chain restaurant
on East Verona Avenue,
and the third to go in since
this spring, in addition to
a national frozen yogurt
chain. Though anecdotal
public reaction seems to
have been a collective groan
about adding more fast food
to Verona, the commission
and city staff agreed the
location is right for it.
The styling and colors

of the Taco Bell match the
companys newest restaurants and are similar to the
one at Orchard Pointe off
McKee Road. The model
is a new prototype, an
architect representing the
company said in August -as with the much newer restaurant on Whitney Way. It
is roughly the same size and
shape as the Dairy Queen
next door and has the same
odd drive-through configuration, wrapped around a
stormwater pond.
Last month, in response to
staff questions about the site
plan, the company agreed to
add a large outdoor patio to
fill what originally looked to
be an awkward open space
on the eastern end of the
property. It also has since
added a connection with
Dairy Queen and more stone
to its four-sided facade.
Just a few hundred feet to
the east on Verona Avenue

is the site of an initial review


for a 5,472-square-foot twotenant building similar to
the four-tenant Hometown
Circle building that opened
earlier this year.
Conceptual plans for the
entire six-acre parcel, which
is just past the Badger Prairie cemetery, show the possibility of a few more similar buildings, including one
that would be connected to
the first and have roughly
the same size and shape.
None of those has been formally proposed, however.
The 24,000-square-foot
Liberty Park building will
be just off County Hwy. M
and the new Liberty Drive
in the burgeoning southeast
side industrial park. It would
be located in an area the city
reserved for retail that is
intended to be complementary to the businesses locating in the park, and it would
be adjacent to the planned
193,000-square-foot hotel.
No tenants for the ground
floor have been suggested
or referred to, and unlike
the other retail/office building planned for that park,
there are no patios or driveup windows to betray a type
of retail use. There is, however, a detailed plan for 24
cubicles and 18 offices for
a single 12,000-square-foot

office user on the second


floor.
Also Monday, the commission will get its first look
at a draft of the 31-page
North Neighborhood plan,
which is likely to be the
next major growth area for
the city. The plan comprises
some 1,600 acres, less than
half of which the city is likely to try to add to its urban
service area in the next year.
A large chunk of the plan
shows about 600 acres of
office space adjacent to the
Epic campus, ostensibly for
Campus 6 and beyond. The
central area shows varying
spots of residential and commercial, as well as an area
for a potential school, while
the eastern section includes
the Ice Age Junction and is
generally not expected to be
available for development.
The North Neighborhood
has a long way to go, however, as it would be an official amendment to the citys
comprehensive plan. That
means its likely to have
more adjustments before
it is ready for its extensive
public hearing process, and
then most of the area would
need to go through a review
before the Capital Area
Regional Planning Commission, which often takes several months.

Learning with excitement

VAHS junior finds passion for physics at summer camp at Yale


Scott Girard
Unified Newspaper Group

Most high school juniors


are starting to consider where
they might go to college and
what they might study. But
most probably dont figure
that out while at Yale University.
Verona Area High School
junior Jonathon Grinde did
just that earlier this summer,
though, as part of a threeweek summer camp the Ivy
League school hosted on its
historical campus.
Yales campus is awesome, Grinde told the
Verona Press. I had those
realizations that, Oh, Im at
Yale, this is a lot of fun.
The program, EXPLO
Exploration Summer Programs, brought more than
700 students together from
June 29-July 19 to discover their passions and learn
from teachers from around
the country about subjects
including criminal psychology and sustainable fashion
design.
Grinde focused more on
traditional topics, taking
Philosophy in Physics and
Professional Mathematics.
He especially enjoyed the

former, calling it a lot of


fun, and realized he may
even want to major in physics when he gets to college in
two years.
Everything they were
talking about kind of went
over my head, but it was
still interesting, he said. I
always wanted to be an engineer ... so I was always in
that area.
The program, which costs
nearly $6,000 to attend,
also offers opportunities
for regional entertainment
experiences like seeing

Newsies on Broadway or
taking in a Boston Red Sox
game at Fenway Park. It
didnt hurt that the Red Sox
are one of Grindes three
favorite baseball teams,
either.
But he likely wouldnt
have been there had it not
been for a full scholarship to
the program, he said.
(The scholarship) was
handy, he said. It was definitely a deciding factor.

The application process


included letters of recommendation, an essay, his high
school transcript and financial information.
The junior, who said the
University of Chicago is
his top choice college at the
moment, said his goal is to
become a professor or work
in a lab where you get to
work with different people
that are also nerds that are
interested in your field.
He said the summer experience was cool for a number
of reasons, including meeting
people from around the world
(including 50 or so Brazilians
during the World Cup their
country was hosting) and
honing his passion for learning, something he will bring
back to VAHS this year.
When I was younger,
school was lame, but now
its exciting to hear different
teachers, Grinde said. Right
now I actually want to learn
this thing, I dont want to just
go through the motions.
Grinde said he plans to
look for another summer program to be part of next year.

Final count should


come in October

School visitor policy

Scott Girard
Unified Newspaper Group

A preliminary enrollment
count on Sept. 22 showed
an even lower number of
students in the Verona Area
School District than a Sept.
4 count that was already well
below projections.
The most recent count,
though, is for butts in seats
and not resident students,
which is the number the state
uses to determine a districts
revenue cap. The state conducted those counts on Sept.
22 as well, but the numbers
are not in yet, superintendent
Dean Gorrell told the board
at its Sept. 22 meeting.
The most recent district
count showed 5,405 students in seats, while the
district had projected 5,500.
Gorrell said the districts
resident student estimate
could still be accurate,
though, depending on how
the numbers break down
with open enrollment.
That includes 82 students
open enrolling out of VASD
who will count toward the
resident student number.
The final numbers from
the state should be available sometime in October
and will be discussed by the
board.

The board last week


also heard a first reading
on changes to the districts
school visitor policy given
a new security system being
installed.
The Raptor system
requires a visitor to provide
photo identification, and the
system scans sex offender registries for matching
names. If a person is deemed
safe to be on school grounds,
he or she is given a printout
ID with a photo that lists
where that person is supposed to be in the school.
The new board policy
clarifies a rule within the
visitor policy. VASD director of human resources Jason
Olson said anyone who does
not have photo ID will be
asked to provide another
form of identity.
Its more of a residency
verification, he said.

Energy efficiency
The board also authorized
the district to exceed its
revenue limit by $320,300
as part of the principal and
interest payments on debt
issued last year.
The debt was issued as
part of an investment in new
energy efficiency measures
to save $183,604 per year
for 25 years.

Letters to the editor

Road paving needed better planning


Dear City of Verona: May I
respectfully submit that officials
simply consult (and consider) the
weekend community calendar
when scheduling downtown road
construction?
Given the Youth Mud Run at
Festival Park, morning soccer
games at Veterans Park, a soccer tournament at Reddan, and the
fact it was Homecoming weekend!
Choosing to re-pave Lincoln

Street this past Saturday morning


caused a cluster of driving and
parking inconveniences for hundreds of families.
Perhaps, in the future, making
the decision to close a needed road
and parking area during, literally,
the seasons busiest day could be
avoided.
Kaye Becker McClaren

Dems should share good ideas


The uproar about Mary Burkes
plagiarism of other governors
job creation plans strikes me as
ridiculous.
If she liked and approved their
plans, I feel the plans must have
been good enough to replicate in
Wisconsin. Good ideas should be
shared!
Have the Republicans forgotten
that their agenda, legislation and
election talking points have been
written by A.L.E.C.?
The American Legislative

Exchange Council (ALEC) is a


501(c)(3) organization of conservative state legislators and private
sector representatives that shares
and drafts model state-level legislation for distribution among the
states and is funded by Walkers

Brothers.

Corrections
Because of additional information that was not available by press
time, a story on the city budget in last weeks Verona Press had the
wrong amount that the debt service levy is expected to rise. The number is $906,323, not around $600,000, as we had printed.
That story also omitted staffing requests from the fire department (an
additional FTE plus the intern program), building inspection (1 FTE)
and Fitch-Rona EMS (1 FTE shared with other municipalities).
The Press regrets the error and the omissions.

Chamber comment

Lets think creatively to


boost Veronas economy

ve come to think Verona


might benefit from a splash
of color.
One of the many functions
we perform at the Verona Area
Chamber of Commerce is marketing Verona as a destination.
The concept is very basic find
a way to get people to Verona so
they will spend money at local
businesses during their visit.
While this goal may seem simple, achieving
it is difficult.
Not only do
we have to get
people here, but
once they are
here, we have
to get them to
make a left turn
into Verona
Curtis
instead of a
right turn back
into Madison.
In the recent past, Verona has
used sports and recreation to
attract visitors. Physical assets
such as the Reddan Soccer Park
and Military Ridge State Trail,
as well as events such as Ironman and the Bullrush Lacrosse
Tournament, to name just a few,
bring in people from all over
Wisconsin and the Midwest.
The problem from the destination perspective is sports and
recreation is a finite opportunity.
It is difficult to coax volunteersupported organizations to organize more tournaments, triathlons and skills camps, and similar events in other communities
dont leave many open weekends
on the calendar.
But there is more that Verona
can do to put itself on the map.
A few weeks ago I attended
a presentation on the creative
economy. Simply put, the creative economy is any facet of the
economy related to art or culture.

This encompasses everything


from theaters to museums to
artists who sell paintings at art
fairs.
In Wisconsin, the arts and
cultural sector is a $535 million
industry, accounting for nearly
23,000 jobs statewide, and the
latter figure does not take into
account volunteer-run organizations like our own Verona Area
Community Theater.
I see a long-term opportunity
for Verona. Let me illustrate
what Im thinking with a few
hypothetical examples.
Verona has some outstanding walking and bicycling trails,
particularly on the west side of
town by Epic Systems and along
East Verona Avenue. What if
we installed some public art and
made a sculpture walk? I think
people waiting between soccer
games at Reddan Park might be
tempted to take a stroll among
the art.
Another idea that might draw
people downtown is setting up a
rotating art exhibit at Hometown
Junction. We could also paint
a few murals, like on the north
wall of Miller and Sons by the
pharmacy.
We already have a terrific performing arts center, and VACT
is attempting to build a smaller
theater downtown. Perhaps we
could exploit these facilities
to establish Verona as an art
destination. We could also add
to the already outstanding programming at the Verona Public
Library.
Thinking longer term, we
could organize outdoor events
such as art fairs or large outdoor
concerts. We could establish a
regional music or film festival,
or perhaps a museum.
I dont offer these ideas as
solutions, but as discussion

starters. Something like this


needs to be a community effort,
and I am sure there are plenty of
great ideas out there.
A good place to start might be
to follow the lead of Middleton
and Waunakee and establish
a city arts commission. Such
a group could add a rudder to
community artistic efforts and
prevent a hodge-podge of incompatible or conflicting ideas.
Perhaps in time such a commission could even have a working budget.
Ah, the budget. Yes, I do realize developing Verona as an art
destination would cost money,
most likely other peoples money, but that is why I suggested
this be a long-term project. If
we begin thinking about it now,
maybe in 10 years we can be the
artistic jewel of Dane County.
That is a good goal to shoot
for, and not just for the economic
impact it might bring. A commitment to the arts improves the
quality of life in a community,
makes communities more attractive to new businesses and brings
people of differing backgrounds
together.
It sounds like a winning idea
to me.
If it sounds like a good idea to
you, I invite you to a presentation sponsored by the Verona
Area Chamber of Commerce on
Wednesday, Oct. 15 at 7 p.m. at
the Verona Public Library. Anne
Katz, executive director of Arts
Wisconsin, will speak on Growing Wisconsin Creatively: Why
the creative economy is critical
to success for the state and all of
its communities. This program
is free and open to the public.
Karl Curtis is the executive
director of the Verona Area
Chamber of Commerce.

Wisconsin Department of
Transportation officials are
hosting a public meeting later this month to discuss the
project.
The work will include
pavement repair and median shoulder replacement
between County MV in
Verona and Town Hall Road
in Mount Horeb. The repaving project precedes a larger
freeway conversion project
for Hwy. 151 slated to begin
in a few years.

Officials are still drafting maps for the larger freeway conversion project that
will limit access and create
new interchanges to Hwy.
151 between Ridgeway and
Verona. Construction on the
conversion project is planned
to start in 2017 at the southern end of the study area.
The public is encouraged to attend the meeting,

Health Fair set for Wednesday

Avenue Auto is hosting its annual Senior Car


Care Day the morning of
Oct. 10, which provides
free pre-winter car safety
checks for seniors.
The service began in
2000 with the original
owner of Avenue Auto
when he realized many
older folks did not know
how to properly prepare
their cars for winter, said
current Avenue Auto owner Bryan Knox in an e-mail
to the Press.
During its first few years
it was a day-and-a-half
event servicing 70 to 80
cars, he said.
However onlyabout two
dozen have shown up in
the last few years.
Knox hopes to increase
those numbers of participants this year, even if it
meant money out of my
own pocket to get the word
out, he said.
The 15-20 minutes
inspections test the battery and coolant for winter
and check tires, brakes,

Reverence Thyself
From ancient times it has been noticed that morality is
part of our nature. We cannot help but feel the pangs of
conscience when we have sinned and the rewards of selfapproval when we have acted justly or charitably. It is not
just that we have a conscience, but also that we have the
ability to make moral decisions. We are a law unto ourselves.
Part of what it means to be moral is that we must decide
for ourselves how to act and must take the responsibility for
acting. Our conscience, which is our internal sense of right
and wrong, is almost always a perfect guide to what we
should say and do, if only we have the presence of mind to
listen to what we are telling ourselves. Of course it is possible to override our conscience and sin, or to corrupt our
conscience by convincing ourselves that sin and vice are not
really sin and vice. But, we will pay for it when we refuse to
listen to our conscience. The pangs of conscience are impossible to silence, and at some point we must realize that following our conscience is the easier and better path. So, we
should reverence ourselves by heeding our conscience.
Christopher Simon
For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do
what the law requires, they ware a law to themselves, even
though they do not have the law. They show that the work of
the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also
bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even
excuse them.

The Verona Press

VACT presents How to Succeed in Business Oct. 10-18


The Verona Area Community Theater kicks off its
2014-15 season with How
to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, opening
at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 10
at the Verona High School
Performing Arts Center.
A satire of 1960s big business, the show follows the
rise of J. Pierrepont Finch
(Tim Fehling), who uses a
little handbook called How
To Succeed In Business
Without Really Trying to
climb the corporate ladder.
He moves from lowly window washer to high-powered
executive, tackling potent
dangers as the aggressively
compliant company man,
the office party, backstabbing co-workers, caffeine
addiction and even true love.
Finch learns how to move
through the company using
his charm and abilities as
he meets the boss nephew,
Bud Frump (Tom Zanton), a
young secretary, Rosemary
Pilkington (Kacey Scheidegger), the boss himself,
J.B. Biggley (Paul Kellerman), and the sexy new secretary Hedy Le Rue (Brooke
Chullino). Add in many

more secretaries and executives working in the stereotyped version of the 1960s
American office, and How
To Succeed is sure to
bring some laughs.
The production took
Broadway by storm, winning
both the Tony Award for Best
Musical and a Pulitzer Prize
and is based on the book by
Shepherd Mead, with a musical score by Frank Loesser.
Making her VACT directorial debut, Kendra Johnson
is excited to show off the talent in this show.
One of the unique features
of this show is the not-so-subtle commentary it offers on
corrupt culture of corporate
America, including themes
of nepotism, plagiarism,
and more prominently, the
unstable role of women in the
workplace, she said. This
show gives us the opportunity to highlight the reality
that many of the stereotypes
portrayed onstage still prevail, while giving us hope that
progress is possible.
Working closely with
Johnson as she creates her
vision onstage are music
directors Calli Ingebritsen

Koats for Kids drive going through Oct. 4


Klinke Cleaners is holding its annual Koats for
Kids campaign to provide
winter jackets for underprivileged children and
adults in Dane and Waukesha Counties.

Coats can be dropped


off at any Klinke Cleaners
until Saturday, Oct. 4. The
Community Action Coalition will be distributing the
coats from Oct. 7 to Oct.
30.

This campaign is a good


opportunity to donate gently used coats to a cause
that is beneficial to the
community.

Back to School
Stoner Prairie Elementary School held its
back-to-school night Thursday, Sept. 18,
along with a build night with LEDs. The
evening gave parents an opportunity to
see what their children would be learning during the upcoming school year.
Schools all around the district hold backto-school nights early in the year to offer
parents a chance to meet their childrens
teachers. Below, a Stoner Prairie teacher
shows off the schools 3D printer, which
it acquired last year.

Sculptor Victor Castro demonstrates to Mrs. Warners kindergarten class how a used plastic bottle is actually the perfect contribution to
their art sculpture.

Sculptor teaches students how to make art from recyclables


Castro relied solely on
recyclables as his art supplies.
As a strong proponent
of the three rs (reducing,
reusing and recycling),
Castro uses items for his
sculptures many people
regard as that trash. That
includes old yogurt cups,
juice bottles and practically
any other disposable food

For six school days, from


Sept. 10 to Sept. 17, sculptor Victor Castro acted as
a resident artist at Glacier
Edge Elementary School.
However, this art class
had nothing to do with
crayons, colored pencils or
construction paper. Instead,

containers.
He shared these creative
re-purposing techniques
with Glacier Edge students as they built sculptures to put on display in
the schools library and on
the fence near the baseball
field.
Completely fascinated by
the way plastic bottles can
be re-shaped into plastic
rods, the children sat in awe
as Castro transformed one
type of material into something totally different.
Castro also stressed to the
children the importance of
pursuing ones passions.
Be happy doing what
you do, he told the kids
while handing out enthusiastic high-fives.

And clearly he follows


his own advice.
I love my work and
sharing with the kids, Castro said after his second to
last day at Glacier Edge,
which consisted of back-toback classes timed so closely together that he was spotted running from one set of
students to the next.
In addition to inspiring
children, he hopes his work
teaches kids fundamental
skills such as ingenuity,
confidence and patience, he
explained.
To follow Castro, social
media is his biggest outlet.
Operating under the name
USgathering, he can be
found on Facebook, Twitter
and Instagram.

Assistant sports editor

Verona girls golf head coach Bailey Hildebrandt doled out the advice
senior Jessica Reinecke needed to
hear after a tough start Wednesday,
Sept. 24, in the Big Eight Conference
meet at Evansville Golf Club.
Reinecke was struggling, but Hildebrandt told her the rest of the team
was playing well and that she needs
to play for the team and not for an
individual title.
Reinecke took that advice and shot
a 35 on the back nine to finish second overall with a 77, and the rest
of the Wildcats (322) followed with
three other top 10 finishers and the
first Big Eight title in school history.
This is definitely something we
have always wanted, especially as a
team, Reinecke said. I definitely
never imagined that this would be
possible, but it is really great.
Reinecke didnt have a terrible
day, but she didnt have her best
day either. But it wasnt a problem

Senior quarterback Noah Roberts and senior split end Christian


Baltes have been connecting on
passes since seventh grade, and
Fridays 36-33 win against Madison East was no different.
Baltes caught seven passes
for 214 yards and a touchdown,
while Roberts finished 13-for-20
for 253 yards and a touchdown.
But one of the bigger plays
for the duo was on a 2nd-and-16
on the Verona 42-yard line with

the Wildcats (3-3) down 26-25


late in the third quarter. Roberts
found Baltes for a 22-yard gain,
erasing the potential for a 3rdand-long.
We ran fades (in seventhgrade) too, so it is natural now,
Baltes said. I know where the
ball is going to be.
Senior running back Eric
Schmid finished the drive with
a 16-yard touchdown early in
the fourth, followed by a 2-point
conversion run to make it 33-26.
The Verona defense also made
some big stops against a Madison

East (0-6) team that scored 30 or


more points in every game except
a loss to Middleton. After the
Schmid score, the defense forced
a 3-and-out, holding senior quarterback Zach Zilm (30-for-44,
348 yards, three touchdowns) to
two incompletions.
Junior Robbie Freitag hit a

(10th).
They are all good players
and each of them can do great
things, but today was about
the team, Hildebrandt said.
And we needed everybody
to have the best they could
to get the win. I told them
that if you have a bad hole,
you have to push it away and
make the next one a good one
because the team needs you.
The Wildcats also were
finally able to knock off Middleton (331), making the win
even sweeter. Verona took
third in 2012 and second in
2013 at the Big Eight meet.
After we played them and
tied them in our conference
match, it is nice that we were
finally able to break that tie
and finally win one, Smith
said.

with a 364, and Madison

The Wildcats now begin

This is just the start.

Senior Ryan Nameth


bounced back from an off
race two weeks ago to win
the 77th annual Midwest
Invitational on Saturday
with one of the fastest
times in recent history.
Ryan ran aggressively and with a purpose,
Wildcats head coach Randy Marks said. The rest
of the team got out way
too slowly and became
mired in the pack. They
did move up, but it was to
late to make an impact.
Nameth was pushed by
runner-up Finn Gessner
throughout much of the
race before gaining a little
separation finished 18
seconds ahead of his Madison La Follette rival in 15
minutes, 23 seconds at the
Blackhawk Golf Course in
Janesville.
Despite Nameth getting the better of Gessner,
Madison La Follette dominated the meet behind the
second-place finish Gessner. The Lancers placed
their five varsity scorers in the top 15 to finish
with 41 points 85 ahead

of runner-up Arrowhead.
Middleton rounded out the
top three with 145. Verona (316) finished 10th
out of the 37 schools and
third amongst Big Eight
Schools Madison West
was not at the meet.
Brady Traeder finished
55th overall as the Wildcats second runner in
17:24. Ben Giese (17:41)
and Nick Stigsell (17:48)
formed a nice pack with
Ben Nelson (18:01) to cap
Veronas varsity scorers.
Veronas third runner
(TJ Manning) was too sick
to run, while Traeder and
Stigsell were both coming off bad colds, leaving
the Wildcats with only six
guys on varsity.
Hopefully when everyone is healthy we can
make some noise again,

Girls cross country

Pletta leads Cats to 18th


Jeremy Jones
Sports editor

Underclassman Julia
Pletta led the Verona girls
cross country for the first
time Saturday at the 77th
annual Midwest Invitational in Janesville.
With McKenzie Imhoff
out of the lineup, it was
Pletta who guided the
Wildcats to an 18th-place
finish as a team (out of 30
teams). Pletta covered the
5k Blackhawk Golf Course
in a team-best 20 minutes,
46 seconds good for 43rd
place. Veronas pack was
spread out of the next three
minutes, however.
Senior Erica Higgins
finished 81 st in 21:47 as

the teams second runner.


Emily Doyle (106th) and
Franny Donovan (107 th )
both crossed the finish line
in 22:12 before Sarah Guy
(146th) rounded out the
varsity scorers in 23:35.
Preston Ploc also competed on varsity, but did
not score.
Dodgeville-Mineral
Point (125) held off Middleton (132) and Madison
West (133) for top honors behind the runner-up
finish of Hannah Owens.
Crusaders standout Amy
Davis took top individual
honors in 17:53.

had to handle Madison La
Follette Tuesday on Senior
Night.
Verona was able to
remain undefeated in the
Big Eight Conference with
a 3-0 (25-10, 25-16, 25-15
win.
Since the beginning of
the season, us being seniors
and being here all summer
we could see the potential
in our team, Schmitz said.
We knew once we got
Middleton that Sun Prairie
was our next victim. We
knew what we have to look
forward to.
We have been keeping
tabs on them and knowing what we are up against,
especially with there middles. We have been practicing a lot to be ready for
that.
The Wildcats (8-0 Big
Eight) havent lost a conference set this season, but
they did trail 11-8 in the
third game. But head coach
Kelly Annen called timeout to calm the girls down
a little.
Verona answered with a
kill by Coyne and two aces
by Schmitz to tie the set,
and then the Wildcat finished the deal with a 10-1
run to end the match.
For most of the night, the
Wildcats remained aggressive on the serve and on the
attack. In the first game,
they had eight team aces,
including four for junior
Kylie Schmaltz.

We always practice by
getting more serves than the
other team, getting a bigger
run then they do, Schmitz
said. We practice pressure
serving so that when teh
game is close or when we
need to come back like
we had to do in third game
we are really focused on
every serve and not missing
one.
And when Verona wasnt
winning by the serve, junior
Victoria Brisack was setting up a kill for Schmaltz,
Coyne and junior Karly
Pabich.
Our attack has been
really important through
every game, making sure
we spread our sets so no
one is expecting anything,
Coyne said. The energy is
a big part of getting excited
for every kill that we get so
that a kill affects every part
of the play.
Schamltz finished with 11
kills for Verona, while Brisack had 27 assists. Schmitz
added up six aces.
Kolpek led with 16 digs,
and junior Julie Touchett
finished with 1 1/2 blocks.
Verona continues the Big
Eight regular season at 6:30
p.m. Thursday at Sun Prairie. The Wildcats also travel
to Madison Memorial at
6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 7.
It is definitely our toughest game in conference so
far, and I think we have prepared really well, Coyne
said. It is not going to be
easy, but we are looking to
come out with the win.

Jordan. But Verona recovered the


onside kick and the offense was able to
get a first down late to seal the game.
We did what we needed to do,
head coach Dave Richardson said.
With all of these things, there
was doubt in our minds because the
momentum hasnt been on our side in
those situations. But we made a play
and made a first down and took care of
business.
The defense was also able to disrupt the East offense enough in the
first half. Senior defensive back Larry
Brown made an interception in the first
quarter, and Roberts found Baltes on a
22-yard touchdown pass after the turnover.
In the second quarter, the defense
forced a couple of punts and kept East
out of the end zone before halftime.
I saw the ball and put my hands up,
and was like, Oh yeah, thats mine.
I have to get it. I have to get it, said
Brown of his interception. I was
shocked that I caught it, and when I
did, I just ran as fast as I could.
Carson Parks scored on a 5-yard
touchdown run to make it 19-13 at the
end of the first quarter, and senior running back Cameron Tindall scored on a
19-yard run early in the third to make
it 25-13.

Calendar: Slightly longer


days, earlier start possible
Continued from page 1
to have a full picture of their
student, especially in early
grades, where parents have
had the majority of interaction with the children.
In order for the personalized learning to happen, we
believe you really have to
understand who the learner
is, superintendent Dean
Gorrell told the committee,
which first met in May. Who
knows that better than the
parent, guardian or advocate
and the child put together?
Historically, the district
has held one parent-teacher
conference in mid-fall and
another in the spring. In
2014-15, for example, those
fall on Oct. 30 and April 3.
And those meetings didnt
suffice, Gorrell said, based
on responses from teachers
at Savanna Oaks Middle
School and Glacier Edge
Elementary School who
worked on personalized
learning programs last year.
On Monday, the committee discussed the importance
of teachers understanding
their students as early as possible in the school year to
save time. But that presents
potential issues with instructional time, teacher contracts
and reaching parents who
cannot get to a school site.
So the committee, charged
with finding a way to
improve the inclusion of parents and guardians in the personalized learning process
through calendar changes,
looked at potential solutions
to those Monday night.

Three ideas
The committee ended the
meeting with three main
ideas:
Start the school year
earlier
Use days of parentteacher conferences to offer
alternative learning options
for students
Stretch the school day
slightly to add up to a day
or two that could be used
for more conferences.
All three have their own
potential drawbacks and
issues to clear up before
they are realistic.
Beginning the school
year earlier, for example,
would require the district
receiving a waiver from the
state Department of Public
Instruction (DPI). Current
law prohibits the school year
from starting before Sept. 1.
But its something

Verona Area High School


teacher Dave Walker said
would benefit advanced
placement students.
Its kind of putting
us at a bit of a disadvantage, Walker said, noting that students in states
that start the school year in
August still take the spring
advanced placement tests
on the same day as Wisconsin students.
Gorrell said those waivers are generally granted if
a district can show an educational purpose behind
its request. Starting early
would also offer potentially
more days for conferences.
Alternative learning
options include service
learning days or seminars on
out-of-the-box topics such
as personal finance. Those
could take place while
teachers and parents meet
to discuss students PLPs
and how each student is progressing during the year.
A key would be ensuring
those days could still count
as instructional time to
meet DPIs required number of instructional hours in
a given year, which varies
from the elementary to middle to high school levels.
Gorrell said that while DPI
often cant do a lot of outof-the-box thinking, the idea
of those activities or even
conference time itself, if the
students sit in equating to
instructional time would be
worth asking about.
Adding a few minutes to
the beginning and end of
each school day could create an extra day or two over
the course of the school
year, which could then be
used for conferences.
That would help satisfy
concerns about instructional minutes and also the
number of days teachers
must work. Its likely the
employee handbook would
need adjustments, however.
Any changes wouldnt
necessarily come at every
level immediately, as the
instructional minute requirements are different and it is
still unclear exactly how the
district would implement the
personalized learning plans.
Gorrell said he hopes to
have a calendar in place
for 2015-16 by Jan. 1, if
not earlier, as hes already
received calls from parents
or others hoping to plan
ahead for vacations.
The committees next
meeting will be Oct. 27.

Drug and medication drop-off


The Verona Police Department participated in the third national prescription
drug take-back initiative on Saturday. More than 50 people safely dropped off
58.5 lbs. of unused, unwanted or expired prescription drugs. Left, Sgt. Jesse

City bill pay back online


After more than a month
without an electronic payment provider, the City of
Verona utilities are back
online again.
The city began accepting electronic checks and
credit cards in 2012, but the
vendor for this service, Wisconsin Payments, has gone
out of business and stopped
accepting municipal payments on Aug. 22.
The city employed a new
provider, Payment Service
Network, or PSN, beginning Tuesday, Sept. 30. The
service is expected to be
live by the end of the week.
The new services allows
immediate payments,
scheduled payments or
automatic payments by

checking account or credit


card, as well as paperless
billing and viewing of bills
online. It also has mobile
apps for both Apple and
Android (PSN Payments).
The service charges fees
for both checks ($1) and
credit cards (2.75 percent).
A Pay sewer and water
bill link on the citys website (ci.verona.wi.us) takes
customers to paymentservicenetwork.com, and a
telephone option is available at (877) 885-7968.
The water and sewer utility also has continued a
direct payment option that
withdraws payments automatically each quarter. For
information, call 845-6695.

Space: Verona boy experienced life as an astronaut

At right, a replica of the


space shuttle Pathfinder,
which was a mockup
of a real space shuttle
made of steel and wood
designed to test facilities
for handling the vehicle.

Left, Mike
Fedorov
stands in
front of
an A-12
Blackbird in
Huntsville,
Alabama
where he
participated in
a week-long
Space Camp.

Continued from page 1


meant a week pursuing his
passions in math and science while gaining a better
understanding of what it
means to be an astronaut.
In addition to a successful
mission to Mars, Fedorov got
to ride in and control a jetpack chair and experience a
multi-access trainer (MAT).
You get in a chair thats
practically a gyroscope and
it simulates a tumbleroll in
space, he said. And you
dont get sick because your
stomach is in the center.
At the end of each day,
Fedorov and his fellow campers fell asleep in cylinder
habitats designed to resemble
the International Space Station (ISS). The experience
concluded with a graduation address from astronaut
Dr. Don Thomas, who was
rejected by NASA three times

before he was accepted.


Preaching perseverance, he
urged students to work hard
and not give up. Fedorov stated in a matter-of-fact tone that
he is indeed, really ready to
work hard.
This is precisely what his

parents had hoped for.


I think it instilled interest in science and math and
a focus of a possible career
interest in the future, said
mom Emilie Fedorov.
Every parent stresses college, father Mike Fedorov
added. Now he knows that
in order to be an astronaut he

has to go to college.
Next year, Michail Fedorov
will once again attend Space
Camp. Only this time, he will
work on more advanced missions and simulations.
Yeah, Im pretty lucky,
he said.
