Registration Process Begins at Eastview High School
The registration process at EVHS offers students, with the assistance of their parents, an opportunity to plan their educational path
for the 1998-99 school year. The registration process begins in January and during the month, parents and students learn about EVHS
curricular opportunities, discuss options and, finally, make decisions about the courses they will reserve for the entire 1998-99 school year.
Because these decisions will impact course offerings and staffing decisions, adjustments will not be made to student registration course
selections after February 20th, unless they occur during the Registration Review Period prior to each semester and are supported by the
school course change guidelines. The following timeline will help you plan your registration decisions.

Graduation Rule Update
For the past seven years, educators,
politicians, concerned parents, business and community leaders
have worked to define what students should know and be able to do
before they graduate from a Minnesota high school. The Minnesota Graduation Rule is the result, taking its current shape after
myriad meetings, hearings, debates and discussions.
The Graduation Rule consists of four major components: the
Comprehensive Goals, the Basic Standards, the High Standards (also
called the Profile of Learning) and the Standards of Distinction.
The Comprehensive Goals are the five complex goals that describe the well-educated graduate: purposeful thinker, self-directed
learner, effective communicator, productive group participant and
responsible citizen. The Comprehensive Goals are part of the philosophical underpinnings of the Graduation Rule and are reflected in
the Task Management Skills which teachers may use as part of their
instruction and assessment of student work.
The Task Management Skills are intended to model and describe the qualities of a student as s/he approaches a task, including
such things as perseverance, the ability to work collaboratively and
responsible citizenship.
The Basic Standards, as described in the fall issue of Connections, are basic skills tests in reading, writing and mathematics. These
tests are the safety net to ensure that no student leaves high school
without mastering skills so vital for life-long learning and career
success.
The High Standards, also addressed in the fall Connections,
define what students should know and be able to do to demonstrate
a high level of achievement in specified areas of learning. The Profile identifies ten broad areas of learning along with important subcategories, or standards, under each heading. To earn a diploma, a
student must complete work in at least twenty-four standards. To
earn credit for a high standard students must complete a series of
related assignments called an assessment package.
While the Basic Standards have been in place for three years,
the High Standards will be implemented with students entering 9th
grade in the fall of 1998 (current 8th graders). The high school registration guide for 1998-99 (distributed to students in January and
available in the guidance office) outlines the placement of standards in 9th grade courses for next year, and the proposed placement of standards in courses offered to 10th, 11th and 12th
graders.
Questions regarding the implementation of the Graduation Rule
at Eastview High School can be directed to Dan Bishop, Kathleen
Kohler, Randall Peterson or Patty Strandquist. Additional information is available from the Minnesota Department of Children, Families and Learning, 733 Capital Square Building, 550 Cedar Street, St.
Paul, MN 55101. This information is also available on the Internet
(http://children.state.mn.us), and may be requested by phone
(282-5438), by Fax (282-6779) or by TTY (297-2094).
Search Institute results at town meetings
The Dakota Partnership for Healthy Communities will report on
the Search Institute survey findings at Apple Valley, Rosemount
and Eagan town meetings. Eastview High School parents are encouraged to attend any of the three town meetings to learn more
about how the secondary students in your community compare to
hundreds of thousands of students across the nation on the 40
Developmental Assets as outlined by the Search Institute. The
following town meetings will take place:

Basic Standards Testing
Scheduled for February
The Minnesota Graduation Standards Basic Standards Tests in
reading and math will be given to Eastview High School students in
grades 9, 10 and 11 who have not previously passed one or both of
these tests. The reading test will be given on Tuesday, February 3,
1998 and the math test Thursday, February 5. All Minnesota public
school students, beginning with the class of 2000 must pass these
basic standards tests in addition to satisfying the district graduation requirements to be eligible to receive a high school diploma.
The basic standards serve as a safety net to help ensure that no
student graduates without basic life-work survival skills. Students
who will be taking these tests will be notified by mail by December
19th and special tutoring sessions to help prepare for the tests will
be available in January.
Technology Connects
EVHS
Technology continues to play an important role in both the
instruction and support of instruction at EVHS. Each Thursday
morning, students tune in eagerly to The Flash, a ten minute,
student-produced television program, highlighting student athletes,
school activities and feature stories covering
a wide variety of high interest topics.
Computers link the school in a variety of ways: each academic
cluster houses fifteen networked computers, and from these computers, students can access their computer “lockers”, a network
storage area; the Media Center data bases and resources; as well as
the Internet for academic research. In order to access the Internet,
students must have submitted a parent permission form to the
Media Center and received a sticker on their student ID cards.
Check with your student(s) to make sure they have completed this
process for easy access to on-line research.
Report cards for quarter one were generated within the building
at Eastview this fall. This addition of technology on-site will allow
for quicker reporting of grades to parents and accurate updates of
student progress and transcripts.
Several teachers within the building are now recording their
attendance on-line which also allows for more accurate reporting of
absences and ease of record keeping for both instructors and the
attendance office.
Look for more innovations in technology as we continue to
develop its use and integration in the curriculum to prepare
students for the twenty-first century.

From the Nurse’s
Office
Deanna Mason, RN LSN
Beginning with the 1998-99 school year all students in
grades 10-12 will need to show proper documentation of a
Tetanus - Diphtheria booster (TD booster) before the first day
of school or they will be asked to leave until this requirement
is fulfilled. This booster must have been given after the age of
11 years. Proper documentation includes a note from a physician, public health clinic, or from a parent or guardian but
documentation of the immunization must include the day,
month and year of immunization.
Please review your child’s health records to see if a TD
booster is needed. If you are a conscientious objector, please
contact me for proper forms that must be signed and notarized. Eastview will be offering TD immunization in the spring
for the cost of $5.00; watch for further details.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact
me at 431-8923.
8th Grade Parent Meetings
To assist 8th grade parents with the registration process, we have
scheduled the following opportunities:
Monday, January 12th
6:30-7:45 p.m.
for eighth grade parents whose last name begins
will the letters A - L.
Monday, January 12th
8:00-9:15 p.m.
for eighth grade parents whose last name begins
will the letters M - Z.
Location:
EVHS Performing Arts Center
Parents who attend these meetings will have the opportunity to
learn more about the Eastview High School registration process,
course offerings, four-year course planning, and to ask any questions they might have.
Perspectives
from the
Principal
It is our philosophy at Eastview High School to offer a
balance of learning opportunities for our students in meeting the
wide variety of student needs and to be responsive to the goal of
educating the “total child.” By balance, we are referring to:
1.
2.
3.
our core of required curricular offerings;
our elective curricular offerings which serve to
provide enrichment and acceleration opportunities; and
our cocurricular offerings.
The registration process for the 1998-99 school year begins in
January. This means that students, with assistance of their parents,
will be involved with the process of choosing classes for the next
year at Eastview High School. These choices will, of course, involve
selections from both our core or required offerings and our elective
curricular offerings. This is also a good time for students to explore
the many cocurricular offerings available to them at Eastview High
School.
On the dates specified in the 1998-99 Student Registration
Timeline, students will receive a registration guidebook and related
materials that describe all of the courses that will be offered next
year to students at EVHS. Students will select those courses they
wish to take for next year; parents are asked to take part in this
decision-making process and signify their approval of the
registration by signing a registration form, and registration materials
will be collected on the specified dates.
Counselors will be available to meet individually with students
and parents from January 7th to February 20th by appointment, to
answer questions students or parents have regarding registration.
As of February 20th, we will consider all registrations final, as we
use this information to hire teachers, determine course sectioning,
assign teaching loads, and make many other decisions that help
our school be one of the very best for young people. Therefore,
once these decisions are made, it will be very difficult to change
course selections.
Obviously, the course selections about to be made will be very
important. In many instances, they will have a significant influence
on the future academic welfare of the student, so we strongly
encourage parents to become involved with these selections. Make
sure you review the Registration Guide with your student; discuss
options together as you focus on the student’s interests and goals;
and develop your registration plan carefully. If a question arises,
please call the appropriate EVHS guidance counselor at 431-8914.
The academic welfare of the student will always be a high
priority at Eastview High School. We look forward to our continuing
partnership with the parents of our students as we work together to
provide an outstanding high school experience.

Many questions arise on which college entrance exam to take,
ACT or SAT? Should I take both? When should I take them? Can
I take them more than once? What are their differences? How do
I register?
The ACT is the most commonly accepted college entrance
exam in the United States; however, most colleges will accept both
ACT and SAT. There are some colleges that will only accept the
ACT. Please check with the college or with your counselor on
which test you should take. Our advice is if you plan to attend a
four-year college, definitely take the ACT during the spring of
your junior year. You may take both tests if you are looking at a
wide variety of schools, particularly on the east coast.

College entrance exams may be taken more than once. Most
colleges will take the higher of the two scores. Some schools will
start averaging scores if the test is taken more than two times;
however many will continue to take the higher test.
The ACT is an achievement test that measures: English,
Math, Science, and Reading. The average of the four tests are
averaged together to determine the over-all composite score which
can range from 1-36.
The SAT is an aptitude test that measures verbal and math
aptitudes. Each test is scored on a scale of 200-800.
To register for either test, a student may stop by the guidance
office to pick up a registration application as well as a practice
exam booklet. The application is to be filled out and mailed directly
to the testing agency in the envelop that is provided. Don’t forget
to include a check or money order for the appropriate fee. You will
be asked to provide a testing code for Eastview High School. Our
testing code for all tests is: 242-123. The testing agency will
communicate directly with you on items such as test location, test
admission ticket, and any missing items or fees.
PROCRASTINATION
Does it seem like your friends always have more time to get their assignments done than you do? Though it may appear that way,.
remember that time is an equal opportunity resource. All people regardless of race, creed, color, or national origin have exactly the same
number of hours in a week. Learning how to manage your time is the key to beating procrastination. Make a chart of your week. Schedule
in fixed activities first; games, practice times, work hours, etc… Next block in some fun time. Take time to do things that you enjoy. All work
and no play can make a very dull week. When you make out your weekly schedule set realistic goals. You will set yourself up for failure
if you only allow one hour to complete a three hour job. Be flexible in your schedule. Leave time for unexpected things and give yourself
time to get from place to place.
Another tool that can help you overcome procrastination is a “To Do List.” Each day write down what you would like to achieve and
prioritize the items on the list. As you finish each task cross it off your list, it will give you a real sense of accomplishment.

9th Grade Core Program
meeting its goals
Making the transition to the academic
and social rigors of high school from middle
school is always a difficult task for many
adolescents. Eastview High School’s 9th
grade Core Program’s purpose is to make that
transition a positive and successful
experience. Each student is assigned a team
of teachers who teach in the content areas
of English/Language Arts, Social Studies,
Science or Math. All teams of teachers are
working with students and families to build
the lasting relationships necessary for
setting the expectations and tone for the next
three years at EVHS. Ninth graders will be
also exposed to study skills, decision making,
goal setting, problem solving, technology
and career awareness.
Each team of teachers and students is
working toward developing its own
personality after its day long team building
and risk-taking experiences at Camp St. Croix
in October and November.

Special Recognition for Student Athletes
This past fall, over 540 student-athletes participated or competed in 12 different athletic activities sponsored by the Minnesota State High School League. We salute those
individuals who chose to be a part of something special. Interscholastic athletic programs
enrich their education with qualities that help students succeed in the world around them.
National studies repeatedly report that school activities build character, increase self confidence, support classroom learning by generating school pride, a sense of community and
by nurturing a feeling of belonging that makes students want to achieve. Still more statistics reveal that participation in activities encourages the aspirations of youth and provides
young people with countless opportunities to develop leadership skills.
Several of our individual participants have been recognized by others for their achievements in the athletic arena this fall. The Lake Conference honored 13 All -Conference
athletes for their excellence. Freshman Courtney Hugstad-Vaa was named All-State in
cross country and Junior Kim Paradeise and Sophomore Lindsay Marko each received
All-State honors in two events each in Swimming and Diving. Kim excelled in the 200
freestyle and the 500 freestyle and Lindsay excelled in the 200 individual medley and the
500 freestyle.
