During Earth Week at Burkett Elementary School,
the message, “On Which Earth Would You Rather
Live?” was presented through examples of a dirty and
garbage ridden world versus the ideal, clean, and
beautiful earth. Students engaged in a variety of
activities including poster making, weekly recycling
projects, and classroom discussions. In addition, the
Burkett Parent Teacher Association Earth Week
Chairperson, Jen Jones, met with each classroom and
gave a demonstration showing the importance of
recycling and the items that can be recycled.
Suong was surprised to learn that the amount of
garbage thrown away in the United States in one year
would easily reach the moon.
Lauren was amazed to learn that it takes hundreds of
years or more for certain items to break down in
landfills. Jade agreed that it is very important for
children to learn about how to conserve and save the
Earth from pollution.

The tenth grade Honors English classes at
Montour High School recently participated
in a national essay writing contest hosted by
Barnes and Noble Bookstores. The objective
of the contest was for students to write about
their favorite teachers; one who has
influenced them in one way or another. On
April 12, five Montour sophomores, along
with their winning teachers, were honored
and recognized at a ceremony at Barnes and
Noble in Settler’s Ridge. Montour students
were able to read their award winning essays,
in addition to presenting their inspirational
teacher with an award of recognition.
The following students received honorable
mentions for their essays:
- 5HEHNDK'HYRUDN- Essay written about
Mrs. Melissa Palmer, sixth grade teacher at
David E. Williams;
- 1RODQ/D6RWD- Essay written about Mrs.
Michelle Bertolino, sixth grade teacher at
David E. Williams;
- 0RULDK9LYLDQR - Essay written about Mrs.
Joan Gorsuch, retired Montour elementary
teacher;
- 2OLYLD3DVTXDUHOOL- Essay written about
Mrs. Kimberly Evans-Roehn, Montour
School District art teacher.
Barnes and Noble chose one local
store winner to move on to the regional
contest. Montour sophomore *LQD
5LFKDUGVRQ was chosen as the overall
local winner for the essay competition.
Her essay written about Mr. Ken
Kutchman, eighth grade reading
teacher at David E. Williams Middle
School, was judged on content,
expression, and writing quality. Her
essay was chosen from an
overwhelming amount of entries
among many different school districts
in the area. Gina’s entry will move on to
compete at the regional, and potentially
national, level of the writing
competition.
Selina Blinn, Community Relations
Manager at Barnes & Noble at Settlers
Ridge, said, “We are so happy to be
able to recognize the great work being
done in our local schools.”
Congratulations to Gina, and all of
the honorable mentions from Montour
High School! Good luck throughout
the rest of the competition.

Students and staff members at Burkett Elementary School are “jumping” into spring beginning
with the American Heart Association’s Jump for Heart event. Students will participate in a variety of
fun and aerobic activities. These activities will not only encourage exercise, but teach the students
about the importance of heart health.
Mr. Manolis, Burkett physical education teacher, and Mr. Carolus, Burkett health education
teacher, would like to thank all of the students, family members, and teachers that kindly contributed
to the American Heart Association Charity event.
Principal Dan DiDesiderio had this to say, “The Burkett community is always looking for ways to
help those in need. Whether through holiday food and gift drives or events such as this, the families
of the Montour School District go the extra mile.”

In this ever-changing world all of us
have those memories of high school: our
friends, our activities, and our teachers.
Sometimes we look back at our yearbooks
and
they
take us back to the days that
were termed by our elders as the “best
times of our lives.”
In the past few years, and most recently
in the past few months, Montour High
School has been undergoing a serious
transformation both physically and
culturally with the upcoming opening of
the renovated high school and the influx
of 21st century technologies into the
district. Yet one thing has remained the
same, the memories that are made here
are ones that will be remembered forever.
Three years ago while cleaning out a
few boxes at the high school, I found a
few old VHS tapes collecting dust, but
before throwing them into the trash, I
looked at them and realized these were
not just dusty old tapes. These were
cherished memories. The labels read
1986, 1994, 1990, 1998 Montour
Video Yearbook. I found a VCR and
began to look at times gone by, people
that I had personally known, and others
that I had never met -- all part of
Montour history.
In my classes I showed my students the
tapes and had them reflect. Students
noticed
homecoming
weeks with
student-made
floats, football
games with a
student Spartan
riding a real
horse. Some
saw their
parents or
relatives; some
noticed pep
assemblies
that featured
class rivalry. All of
them saw the pride and what it truly
means to be a Montour Spartan.
After watching the tapes I knew that the
Montour Video Yearbook needed to be
brought back. I immediately got together a
proposal and, with the help and support of
Mr. Todd Price, the high school principal,
and the Montour School Board, the video
yearbook was back.
The first new version of the video
yearbook came out in the summer of 2009
for the class of 2009. Students and parents
helped with the taping of sporting events,
they lent pictures and videos. With their
support, and the support of the
administration, the video yearbook became
an instant success and time capsule for the
memories of each class. Videotaping the
sporting events and activities in the district
and having a camera ready to roll for each
pep assembly, then hours on end at games
and graduation, the video yearbook was not
only a challenge, but became a labor of love
for all of those involved. Last year’s video
yearbook totaled over 100 hours of raw
footage, an endless number of hours for
filming, getting to events in all types of
weather, several camera batteries and
tapes, and many weeks of editing to get
down to two hours of finished video.
The Video Yearbook now is run by the
Montour Academic Games team and is
headed up by teacher Michael Phillips,
seniors Julia Havko and Ashley Ball, and
several other students. The yearbook
serves as a fundraiser for the organization
and each year donates part of the
proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Race for
the Cure in honor of Montour teacher
Christina Frank.
The video yearbook is a long way from
those dusty VHS tapes and is being
produced on DVD now, but the mission
of capturing memories has not changed.
The Montour Video Yearbook is
currently working on this year’s edition
and would like your help. If your son or
daughter is part of the class of 2011 and
you have video footage of elementary and
middle school functions and activities
and would be willing to let us borrow the
footage for inclusion in our “Remember
When” section of the video yearbook,
please contact Mr. Phillips at
phillipsm@mail.montourschools.com.
In addition, we are also looking to create
and complete a collection of all of the
Video Yearbooks that have been
produced throughout the years. We
currently have 1986, 1994, 1996, 1997,
1999, 2009, and 2010. If you have a
copy of any of the years not mentioned
above, please contact Mr. Phillips at
phillipsm@mail.montourschools.com.
We will return all original copies of
footage unless otherwise requested.

Recently, 13 Montour High School students from Mr.
Nate Galiyas’s business classes participated in Deloitte’s
Virtual Team Challenge, a business simulation and
employer branding program designed to introduce high
school students to core business skills including
teamwork, professionalism, business sense, and
responsibility.
This innovative program gives high school students a
hands-on introduction to today’s business world.
Through a business-oriented video game simulation,
they are able to develop and apply theoretical learning
skills into practical ones. The game itself takes place in
“New City,” a 3-D world that challenges students to
design avatars, collaborate in teams, and apply business
skills to clean up the oil spill and win the challenge.
This year’s version of the challenge attracted more
than 1,400 students from high schools across the
country. One group of students from Montour had a
very noteworthy performance. The team, consisting of
junior Roy Cross, sophomore Sadie Davis, and freshman
Anastasia Paulson-Aponte, finished 17th out of 400
teams. They collectively staged one of the most efficient
disaster recovery efforts by selecting the most effective
vendors based on research conducted in-game, and
hiring them at the best possible price. Congratulations
to Roy, Sadie, and Anastasia for finishing in the top 5%
in the country!

Nearly 20 student athletes from Montour High School
and The Early Learning Institute (TELI) teamed up for
the “We Are Fit” program on April 6 at TELI’s Ohio
Valley Learning Center. The
student athletes created physical
fitness stations for the children
aged two to five to enjoy while
learning more about
cardiovascular health, agility,
nutrition, and flexibility. The
lessons about eating well and
living a healthy lifestyle were
reinforced through curriculum in
the classroom. TELI parents were
encouraged to get involved and
work with their children to stay
healthy.
Barbara Pergar, Center
Coordinator at The Ohio Valley Learning Center, spoke of
the importance of community projects such as this saying,
“The children are used to us and their parents teaching
them things, but to see it from a high school student’s perspective
is just great.”
Lou Cerro, head of district facilities and events and head
football coach for Montour High
School, also believes that his student
athletes will benefit from the
experience.
“We try to branch our kids out to do
as many things as possible to help out
the community in the Montour
School District and surrounding areas,
so it’s a good experience for their
growth into adulthood.”
Over 30 children enjoyed the day’s
activities including playing catch,
stretching, running, and even tasting
healthy foods while learning about the
food pyramid. Student football player
Tyler Haddock said it best. “It is very important because you
don’t want kids just sitting around playing video games. It’s
always good to keep these kids in shape for the future, because
they are the future.”

Touring a building under construction is an interesting journey.
However, adding a group of engineering students to the mix during
a recent tour of the Montour High School renovation project
brought classroom learning to a new level of awareness and understanding.
In April, Stephen Connell, of Apostolou Associates, the architectural firm that designed the renovations, took the students from the
high school Civil Engineering class on a tour to see how the
blueprints they have been studying in class from the high school
construction project are coming to fruition in an actual setting.
Stephen gave an entire set of the building plans to teacher Jesse
Langman so the students could study them and learn about the
components in a building construction project.
Through Project Lead, Jesse has engaged the engineering class in a
mock renovation of a library project.
“The students had to look up building codes for components, from
the utilities and plumbing to electrical,” he explained.
“This brought home the idea to schedule a tour of the high school
renovation project so the students could see the scope of the project
at this point,” Jesse added.
The tour encompassed the entire complex, and revealed a work in
progress that will include a fully Wi-Fi enabled campus. The
students saw “behind-the-scenes” components such as cabling,
electrical, and plumbing. They saw cut-outs in the hallway walls
where recessed display cases will be housed. They saw the progress of
the science labs, the art rooms, and the library.
Stephen showed the students how parts of the plumbing system
were constructed offsite, then brought to the school for installation.
“It’s easier to build the components in the shop, where they have all
the tools and fittings, rather than try to do it onsite,” he explained.
The bathrooms will also have on-demand lighting, one of many
energy savings within the building.
Senior Chris DeMatty said, “It’s incredible. This will be so nice;
what an improvement, and how quickly it is going up.”
Nick Maslakowski, also a senior, concurred. “This is way better than
we were told.”
Along the hallways, framework was being constructed for each
department’s signage to be displayed as students move from one part
of the building to another.
The tour included a peek inside the intermediate gym, which will
provide seating for 660 on new bleachers, as well as a batting cage.
The current main gym will be renovated at a later date.
The new weight room was also shown. Jason Burik, assistant
superintendent, said that $100,000 in new equipment has been
ordered for the room.
One of the most dramatic changes on the campus will be the
connection of the two buildings into one. Enclosed corridors will
connect the buildings, as will a front entrance lobby area that will
now serve as the main school entrance. School buses will drive up the
current driveway, then continue around a circular driveway to the
main canopy, where students will get on and off the buses and enter
the building.
Other new additions will be a Spartan Shop where students can
purchase supplies and Montour apparel, a stand-alone art gallery
featuring artwork by Montour students that will be purchased with
6725<$1'3+2726
%<3$7-(11(77(
funds allotted by the school board, a new multi-use backstage area and
band storage room in the former boiler room, and new science labs that
will incorporate a greenhouse for learning botany. The greenhouse is
being constructed alongside the former entrance to the grades 9-10
building.
“Dr. Donald Boyer, school district superintendent, had a lot of ideas
that he brought to this project to make it cutting edge, such as a coffee
shop in the new library and a student art gallery,” explained Jason Burik.
Technology will be key in the new high school. Besides campus-wide
WiFi, students will have access to netbooks, iPads, and Nooks. In the
library, Jason explained that that there will be more eBooks than regular
books.
Throughout the building, 12 video panels will announce such things
as events, schedules, news feeds and, in the cafeteria, the menus.
Said Beau Castelucci, a junior on the tour, “In the old learning
environment it was hard to learn before; with this new technology and
the new school, it will definitely be a lot better.”
Added student Harry Colberg, “The technology in the new building
will be so nice; we will have a lot more options to use rather than use
paper.”
The district plans to have the school ready for students when classes
resume in the fall, followed by a dedication of the building in October.
