    Legislators finished their workby passing a $4.1 billion generalappropriation bill March 8, encom-passing more money for schoolsand Medicaid providers than inthe most recent past.

    Not everyone was happy, how-ever, with the allocation of funds

    during the final garnering ofamendments to HB1185, and$1.72 million was left on the tableunallocated. But legislators wereassured that $1.7 million was nottoo much.

    Rep. Susan Wismer, D-Britton, afrequent critic of how the statespends its money, said last years$1.6 million left on the table hadresulted in $47 million going into

    Sen. Mark Kirkeby, Rapid City, and Sen. Jean Hunhoff, Yankton,both Republicans, shake hands after the final vote of the 2013S.D. Legislature was taken shortly before midnight March 8.Both houses passed a $4.1 billion bill for fiscal year 2014. Edu-cation received 46 percent of the general fund, or $601.9 million.Medicare providers followed with 39 percent, criminal justice, 10percent; and the remainder of state government, five percent.Legislators return Monday, March 25, after a two-week break inthe action, for the final day. ~Photo Elizabeth Grosz

    Legislature passes $4.1 billion budget on final day of main run

    reserves. She opposed passage ofthe bill with that amount ofmoney unappropriated.

    Wismer, fellow Democrats, andseveral renegade Republicanswere critical of the money thatshould or could have gone to helpK-12 education and Medicareproviders, but instead was spenton constructing new buildings,

    tearing down old buildings andputting more money into reserves.Sen. Billie Sutton, D-Burke, who

    also serves on the Joint Appropri-ations Committee, was generallykinder and more conciliatory in hisattempt to amend the budget. But,the frustration was evident. Theattempt had been to give Medicareproviders another $4.6 million andeducation another $2.1 million,

    both in one-time money.They also sought to provide

    $21,000 to a veterans service pro-grams, which helps pay vehicle ex-penses for volunteer drivers whotransport veterans to medical ap-pointments.

    It would also have taken away$500,000 that appropriation com-mittee legislators had voted forLegislative Research Council pro-

    grams that assist legislators.Key Republicans, on the other

    hand, were happy with the resultsof the budget work.

    Sen. Deb Peters, R-Hartford,who chairs the Senate side of theJoint Appropriations Committee,said once again, education re-ceived the first dollar and the last

    by Larie HindmanThe Wall School Board had a

    tough decision to make at theirWednesday, March 13 meeting.

    President Scot Eisenbraunasked the board what theirthoughts were on the Big WhiteSchool, if they should vote to makeit a K-5, K-6 or K-8 school.

    Spencer Cordes said, he couldsee both sides of the issue andwould like the school to be a K-8.

    Mary Williams commented shehas spoken to teachers who havetaught at country schools andstated, How can one teacher ad-dress K-8 and not let somethingslip. She went on to say we needto revisit having the Big White bea K-6 school.

    Carolynn Anderson said, she at-tended country school and we areexpecting a lot from one teacherand now is the time to be proac-tive.

    Eisenbraun related maybe weare a year to late but I think weshould start too implement tech-nology at the Big White with onesubject instead of three in oneyear.

    Superintendent Dennis Rieck-man said, he would be fine with K-8. He noted that technology doeswell in town but is not sold ontechnology for out there and weare asking for to much of these twogirls if that is what the board de-cides. He also said if the board de-cides to make the school K-8 wewill have to hire another teacherfor two years.

    Todd Trask said, he is not in

    favor of hiring another teacherwith the budget being as tight as itis.

    Jeff Gabriel, who has childrenattending Big White, is trying tolook at this from the boards point.He reasoned that the board shouldgo through all their options and ex-plore each one before splittingyoung families up. He added ifsomething fails it fails but at leastit was tried.

    Williams said she could totallyhear what Gabriel was saying butgrades K-3 are the most importantand she doesnt know if the boardcan address both ends of the spec-trum. Williams wanted to knowhow can one teacher get it doneunless we hire two teacher towhich Trask said again he is not in

    favor of hiring another teacher.A motion was made to make Big

    White a K-6 school next year withTrask, Williams, Anderson andJohnson voting yea and KevinBielmaier, Cordes and Eisenbraunvoting nay. The motion passed.

    Jeanine Sykora and Diane Gei-gle came before the board on be-half of the Childrens Theater andrequested to have the project in-cluded into next years budget.They have applied to SouthDakota Arts Council for a grantand have two cooperate sponsorsbut would like the board to coverany other cost if the need arises.The board approved a motion tobudget up to $2,500 for the Chil-drens Theater.

    Power Assisted Handicap doorswere approved for installation.

    The third readings for the Vol-unteer and Staff Developmentpolicies were approved.

    Elementary Principal ChuckSykora reported letters have beensent out for kindergarten screen-ing.

    Rieckman, asked if there wereany questions on the 2013-2014school calendar. The board dis-cussed Christmas vacation datesand decided to have school beginon January 6, 2014. Rieckman willmake the adjustments to the cal-endar with the motion approved bythe board.

    Track and Golf rules were ap-proved.

    Rieckman, who went to Wash-ington D.C. for an Impact Aidmeeting, updated the board on

    various concerns that are happen-ing with the program and pay-ments.

    Visiting South Dakotas Capitolbuilding is like going on a treasurehunt.

    People search for sky blue tilesin the terrazzo tile floors.

    Almost all the marble tiles inthe Capitols floors are yellow, rust,white, black, tan and green al-most, because 66 of them are saidto be blue. The story goes that each

    of the 66 Italian workers who laidthe floor during the Capitols 1905-1910 construction was given a bluestone to place anywhere in theCapitol as a signature stone.

    To date, 57 of the tiles have beenfound. Its a story that causes visi-tors to the Capitol to look for thespecial tiles, and it might be justthat a story. Interviews with menwho helped construct the buildingsay nothing about Italian crafts-men working on it, and peoplelooking at records say they canfind no evidence of the craftsmenhaving stayed in Pierre.The blue tiles are not the only

    point of interest in the Capitol.The grand stairway leads from

    the second to the third floor. Manyof the people who tread where gov-ernors and legislators have trod donot notice that a baluster or spin-dle is upside down. They may be-

    lieve that workers accidentally putthe baluster in wrong, and did notnotice the mistake until it was toolate to correct the error. Not so, ac-cording to one researcher on theCapitols history. In The SouthDakota State Capitol: The FirstCentury, Marshall Damgaardwrites, During the time that thisbuilding was constructed, artisanscommonly inverted a single balus-ter on a stairway in impressivebuildings to symbolize the beliefthat only God can attain perfec-tion. It is no coincidence that theinverted baluster is the third onedown on the right, symbolizing theHoly Trinity.

    Incidentally, South Dakotasstatehouse is not the only one withan inverted spindle. According toRichard R. Gibsons A Celebrationof State Capitols, a lone spindle inthe Wyomings Capitol is upside

    down. The staircase was built byAmish craftsmen, who placed itupside down to remind all who

    Legends of the Capitol

    pass by it that no person or law isperfect.

    The stately columns inside theCapitol appear to be marble. Theywere constructed in scagliola.

    First, the columns were createdfrom plaster and covered by mar-ble dust, ink and yarn. Once themixture hardened, it was polishedto a lustrous sheen that resembledmarble. The resulting columnscost $100 each, whereas marblecolumns would have cost up to$1,000 each.

    Some of the Capitols stainedglass windows honor the first set-tlers in the state, according to Bar-

    bara Johnson of Aberdeen. She isa South Dakota Humanities Coun-cil scholar who has researched for

    The photograph is of a stained glass window in the Capitol. The figures in the center of the paneare of special interest to stained glass scholar Barbara Johnson of Aberdeen, who believes themotif is of a water strider or straddlebug and honors the states first pioneers.

    ~Photo courtesy of South Dakota State Historical Society State Archives

    the past five years the role stainedglass plays in buildings and howstained glass reflects culture andhistory.

    To Johnson, the fan-shapedstained glass panel in the back ofthe House chamber and thestained glass panel dedicated toGov. George S. Mickelson andseven other men who were killedin a plane crash have motifs thatresemble wingless water striders.

    Johnson contends that the waterstriders large eyes correspond totwo large circles in each motif,while the insects front, middle andhind legs match up with the swirls

    in the motif.The water strider was called a

    straddlebug by pioneers who oftensaw it skittering across the surfaceof the states lakes and ponds. Astraddlebug was also a three

    boards set together in tripod formand used by homesteaders to showthat a claim was occupied.

    One more thing that those visit-ing the Capitol might not realize isthat the Capitol Hill area was theBoot Hill cemetery of early-dayPierre.

    During the final grading andlandscaping around the Capitol,workers unearthed a number ofpine coffins. A worker recognizedone of the skeletons as belongingto Arkansaw, a desperado shot todeath by vigilantes at the foot ofPierre Street in Pierre in 1881.

    Our weather last week was veryspringlike until Saturday when itturned colder and back to winterwith snow. It melted quickly onSunday giving us a little moisture.Lower temperatures and windseem to dominate this weeks fore-cast. Spring is officially here onWednesday, the 20th, but we allknow that doesnt mean it willcome and stay. Laughter is a tranquilizer withno side effects. ~Anonymous

    Time is precious. In fact, time isone of the most valuable resourceswe have in this life. If we are to ac-complish our purpose in life-to bewho we are destined to be-then wedo not have much time to waste.We must make wise choices as tohow we can make the best use ofour time. We must prioritize andtake time to actually do thosethings that we say are so importantto us if we are to be who we reallywant to be.

    That is why every day I try totake the time to think, to play, toread, to laugh, to work, to give, andto pray. That is why I make timefor the people I love.

    We are all given twenty-fourhours each day and that is all thetime any of us needs to do what re-ally matters. It is up to us how wewill spend those seconds, minutesand hours, but we have got tochoose wisely, because time, once it

    is spent is gone forever.I encourage you today to take

    time to do whatever you can tomake the most of your time. Theclock is ticking.

    Take Time to Make the

    Most of Time

    FOCUS ON THE FAMILYwith Dr. JamesDobsonDr. Dobson Answersyour Quest ions QuESTIoN: Weve recently be-come a blended family. As a newstepparent, what can I do to makethe transition as smooth as possi-

    ble for everyone concerned? ANSWER:We have a number ofsuggestions for you, but taken to-gether they add up to one simplepiece of advice: Be patient. Thetask of building a successfulblended family is challenging andcomplicated. Even under the mostideal circumstances it takes time lots of it. Here are some thoughtson what this might mean and howthe details might play out in prac-tical terms.

    First, its crucial to have realisticgoals. Dont expect to become theBrady Bunch overnight. Instead,keep the lines of communicationopen and discuss your hopes anddreams together with the under-standing that everyone in the fam-ily needs to stay flexible. Blendingis possible, but its not automaticand it cant be forced. It has toarise out of the slow process of de-veloping genuine, honest relation-

    ships with one another.You also need to allow sufficient

    time for grieving. A new marriageis always full of hope and promise,but in your case the joy is neces-sarily muted by the memory ofwhats been left behind. The kidsin particular should have permis-sion to mourn the break-up of theiroriginal family and the loss ofeverything that went along with it

    house, neighborhood, friends,school, etc. This could take up to ayear or more in some cases.

    As you work your way throughthese delicate issues, stay aware ofyour own emotions. Parents whoare too outwardly focused can

    overlook personal thoughts, fears,or perceptions that may hold a keyto effective blending. Be sensitiveto internal variables. But dont betoo sensitive. Avoid the forced useof titles like Mom or Dad. Donttake it personally if a stepchildisnt comfortable calling you bysuch names in the beginning. If ithappens at all, it will have to hap-pen gradually. I f it doesnt, be will-ing to negotiate an alternative to-gether.

    In everything you do, take spe-cial measures to give lots of affec-tion to everyone in your new fam-ily. That means spending timealone with your spouse, workingon your couple relationship, andmaking marital intimacy a prior-ity. Meanwhile, if youve bothbrought children into the mar-

    riage, be sure to devote plenty ofattention to your own kids so theydont feel abandoned in your at-tempt to bond with your newstepchildren. When you show af-fection to your step-teens, dont tryto prove yourself to them, anddont make them feel as if theyhave to earn your love. Overall,be genuine and create an environ-ment of respect where everyonecan share their feelings openly andhonestly.

    Finally, make an intentional ef-fort to begin building a history to-gether. Part of what makes a fam-

    ily feel like a family are commonexperiences and shared memories.So start looking for ways to build asense of us and we among themembers of your household. Plantrips. Play games. Establish holi-day traditions. Take lots of pic-tures. Dont try to erase memoriesof the old family; simply workhard to build a new one together. QuESTIoN: How can I connectwith my stepchild? She resists myattempts at friendship and evenscreams, Youre not my dad!Leave me alone! Have I donesomething wrong? How do I getpast this barrier?

    ANSWER: Were hesitant tomake definitive statements with-out knowing more about your situ-ation, but we doubt that youvedone anything special to triggeryour stepdaughters negative re-sponse. There are many reasons achild might react so strongly to anew parent. Some of them couldrequire counseling or professionalintervention, but most can be ef-fectively dealt with in the home.

    Its possible that the problem isrooted in unspoken signs and sig-nals that your stepchild has ob-served in your relationship withyour new spouse. If the biologicalparent fails to give the stepparentan explicit endorsement of author-ity, the child may feel that she hasno reason to recognize the steppar-ent as a legitimate guardian withall the rights and responsibilitiesthat go along with parenthood.

    Teenagers are particularly liable to

    pick up on this subtle messaging.If thats the case in your family,your spouse needs to take the ini-tiative by setting the ground rulesfor your stepdaughter and affirm-ing your authority.

    In other cases, its easy for anenthusiastic stepparent to come ontoo strong in expressing his or herexcitement about the new family.This can be confusing eventhreatening to a child, triggeringa nasty response. At such times,the stepparent needs to relax, stepback, and let the relationship de-velop at the childs pace. If youwant to get past barrier, youre

    going to have to find ways to oper-ate at your stepdaughters comfortlevel. When you sense bitternessor resentment, dont force theissue. Just make it clear thatyoure ready to listen when shesable to express her emotions in arespectful manner. As opportuni-ties arise, give her a chance tospeak her mind, but dont allowher to be abusive. If the hurtfulwords persist, it may be time toseek help from an objective thirdparty.

    Whatever the dynamics of yourparticular case, its important toremember that youre not alone.Every stepparent has to learn howto love and keep on loving withdogged determination, prayingtirelessly and taking whatever ac-tion is necessary. If youre persist-ent, were confident that your ef-forts will eventually bear fruit.

    Posted By Pastor Cornelius R. StamHave you ever considered carefully the opening words of

    the Bible? In the beginning God created the heaven andthe earth.Why doesnt it simply say that God created theUniverse? Why the heaven and the earth?

    As we go on reading we find the answer to this question,for the Bible clearly teaches that God has a two-foldpur-pose; one having to do with the earth and the other withheaven. The former is the subject of prophecy, while the lat-ter is the subject of the mystery, or secret, revealed to andthrough St. Paul. (See Acts 3:21; and cf. Romans 16:25).The former concerns Israel and the nations; the latter theBody of Christ, the Church of the heavenly calling.

    Some people are surprised to learn that there is not one

    promise in the whole Old Testament about going to heaven.There the whole outlook is earthly, with Messiah reigning asKing (Jer.23:5; et al). When our Lord appeared in the fleshthe angels cried: Peace on earth(Luke 2:14). He Himselfsaid that the meek shall inherit the earth (Matt.5:5). Hetaught His disciples to pray: Thy will be done in earth, as itis in heaven (Matt.6:10).

    Even at Pentecost Peter declared that after the restitu-tion of all things God would send Jesus back to earth andthe times of refreshing would come from the presence ofthe Lord (Acts 3:19-21).

    Not until the raising up of Paul do we learn that now allbelievers in Christ are baptized into one body (ICor.12:13),and Colossians 1:5 and many other Pauline passages,speak ofthe hope which is laid up for you IN HEAVEN. In-deed, before God, believers are already given a position inheavenly placesand are blessed with all spiritual bless-ings IN [THE] HEAVENLIES in Christ(Eph.1:3; 2:4-7).

    The prophecies regarding the Kingdom, however, will stillbe fulfilled and Christ will reign on earth and bring the prom-ised times of refreshing. Thank God, this world will not for-ever be a place of war and bloodshed, sickness and death,misery and woe. Indeed, at that time, heaven and earth will

    be opened to each other, and thus will be fulfilled Gods two-fold purpose: That in the dispensation of the fulness oftimes He might gather together in one all things in Christ(Eph.1:10).

    We are in the time of year wherewe start planning for next year.

    We have three veteran teachersretiring after this school year andwe will be moving teachers andhiring new teachers to fill thesepositions.

    Change is never easy and wehave staff members willing tomake the change to keep ourstrong academic programs in

    place.It is hard at times to make someof the changes due to strong aca-demic success we have experiencedin recent years. We will announcethese changes once the final piecesare put together.

    Along the lines of change, I havebeen approached about doingsomething different with GirlsBasketball and coaches. AREYou KIDDING ME!

    Coach Hess has had a lot of suc-cess in the past few years and hashad the girls in the State BB tour-ney twice. What more is there?

    I know that Coach Hess or anyother coach for that matter will notplease everyone. He has been ableto get the girls to play and do well.

    Take a look at the boys basket-ball program. Our seniors nextyear could have four differentcoaches during their high schoolcareer if we hire a new teacherwith coaching.

    I cant remember if they havehad the same coach at the middleschool level.

    The boys program is in a funkand the instability of the programis evident. Our boys program hashad some success, but when westart measuring it up and basingsuccess on how many trips to thestate tournament we have notdone as well. How many coachescould have beaten White Riverwith our players?

    With every coaching changethere will be a new system andgrowing pains. One year removedfrom the Championship game infootball there was a coachingchange and the team did not do aswell as anticipated.

    The volleyball program is goingthru some of these same growingpains due to change in coaching,

    but is starting to improve eachyear.

    The golf, track, and cross coun-try programs are doing well partlydue to stability in coaching.

    We need to find stability in ourprograms to experience successand we cant continually changecoaches because they did not winenough or made someone upset.

    Remember there is no one whowants to win more than the play-ers and coaches, but they are highschool athletes and they will make

    From the desk ofSuperintendent Dennis Rieckman

    mistakes.It is always what coaches do to

    improve the team, but it also takescommitment by the athletes towork in the offseason to improveas well.

    I do want to extend my congrat-ulations to the girls baskeballteam and Coaches Hess and Kier.They represented the Wall schooland community very well.

    The game on Saturday was anexcellent example of the necessityof team play. The younger playersstepped up and a senior scored thewinning basket.

    All of the players from the threeseniors on down to the freshmanand eighth graders played a vitalrole in the success of the team.

    It appears the Wall Girls Bas-ketball team has a promising fu-ture, but it will take work in theoffseason to maintain the success.

    The school was supposed to havereceived their Impact Aid pay-ments for the last three applica-tion years, but there has been asnag.

    We are currently waiting for thenew application to be released sowe can move forward.

    Two thirds of the schools in thenation are receiving their Impact

    Aid funds.Our district is in the one third

    who has to jump more hurdles toreceive the money. We receive Tay-lor Grazing and National MineralLeasing money from the federalgovernment each year.

    By receiving these funds wehave to wait and make sure we donot receive more money than ourimpact aid payment. If anyone inthe district knows where the landis located in the district for theTaylor Grazing or Mineral Leasesplease contact me at school.

    It is important we find wherethe land is located to help with ourobtaining the Impact Aid payment.

    The students in grades third-eighth and 11th have finished upwith the third round of the Bench-mark Assessments last week.

    I know students have tested alot this year with us being part ofthe pilot program, but it will helpour students have an idea on what

    to expect in the future assess-ments. There are several changesand our students will be betterprepared.

    We have our Dakota Step examscoming up in April and then ourfourth and final round of testingin May.

    I appreciate the students givingtheir best on these exams and theteachers for adapting their lessonplans to accommodate theseexams.
