SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT
I would again like to thank the board for letting me attend the Safe Schools Conference last week. It was
my first time attending this conference, and it was excellent overall. Perhaps we should think about a
small team attending next fall. I have shared some of the information I received with Mr. Parlak and Mr.
Omatick, and my full report is in the board packet.
I would just like to share a few bullet points from some of the highlights of what was taught and
learned:
• Drills all need to be practiced, and some of them don’t even have to involve students. Practice is
a requirement, not an option! However, you cannot train for everything either.
• Every year, an average of 11 students in the USA are lost due to school violence. Although any
loss is too much, children are statistically much safer at school than anywhere else. There is a 0.0006%
likelihood of a child dying in school.
Page 74 of 78
CONNELLSVILLE AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT BOARD OF EDUCATION
REGULAR BOARD MEETING –OCTOBER 9, 2013
• Emergency management should include 5 mission areas: prevention, protection, mitigation,
response, and recovery.
• Security decisions should always be made on the basis of assessed risks and needs, and not on
fear.
• 6 security mitigation domains that should be addressed are physical, electronic, cyber,
operational, cultural, and non-tangible. These domains all need to be integrated, balanced, and
operational. An example was given of a potential new school building site near a toxic chemical disposal
plant, prisons, car-jacking activity, and a flight pattern overhead…
• Improving lighting can be a cost-effective way of improving security.
• No protective action is risk-free. Therefore, over-evacuation is as detrimental as underevacuation (a student commented on this regarding evacuation to the stadium in his district), and public
opinion will never be unanimous.
• If you do not control the situation, the situation will control you.
• Following chain of command is essential, especially in an emergency.
The School Performance Profiles have been released to the public, and I am happy to report that none of
our buildings were designated as either “focus” or “priority” schools, that is, in the bottom 15% of schools
in the state. They all were considered “undesignated” which is the new terminology instead of Adequate
Yearly Progress. I have given the board this information. There is a difference between what was
originally released to superintendents and the public scores – the state decided to not include promotion
rates for the 2012-2013 school year. They wanted a baseline, so promotion rates were removed from the
calculation. Since our elementaries and junior high have excellent promotion rates, this dropped our
scores slightly for this year.
Our Cyber Solution initiative, or CSI, agreement with the IU has been very successful. At a recent
superintendents’ meeting, they shared information with each participating district as to their cost saving by
using CSI. I am happy to report that Connellsville Area saved $418,088.94 in 2012-2013 with 58 students
enrolled in our CSI, and so far, we have saved $187,419.18 in this school year with 26 students. My
thanks goes to Dave Tangretti, who has been supervising this initiative, as well as Dr. Stern, who has been
instrumental in our involvement in this initiative.
