Good morning, Last week we mailed out SAEBRS consent forms to all families we did not have consent for their child to participate. If you have not returned this consent form allowing your student to participate, please read the form and send it in ASAP if you are allowing your child to participate. Your student has taken this screener for several years, but this year the state of Iowa is requesting consent from parents for students to participate. “The SAEBRS (Social, Academic, and Emotional Behavior Risk Screener) is a brief, norm-referenced tool for screening all students to identify those who are at risk for social-emotional behavior (SEB) problems. SAEBRS is one of the only SEB universal screening tools built to align with a dual-factor model of student social-emotional functioning, which asserts that mental health should be defined by both the absence of problem behaviors and symptomatology (e.g., internalizing and externalizing behaviors) and the presence of well-being and competencies (e.g., social-emotional skills). If You have questions or concerns please reach out to myself of the school counselors Mrs. Hoover or Ms. Hogenson. Ms. Osborne-GCMS Principal

Sand created the PIE program in 2019 to encourage public entities across Iowa to think outside the box and spark innovative ideas to save public funds. The PIE program checklist provides local leaders with tools to collaborate and share their concepts, known as PIE recipes, via the Auditor of State’s website. State Auditor, Rob Sand, has announced today that Greene County CSD has been voted as the Best Performing 3A School District for the Annual PIE (Public Innovation and Efficiencies) Award. Greene County CSD has went "the extra mile" over the last year to ensure that public tax dollars are used efficiently through the daily operations of the school district with improved heating and cooling systems, energy shutdown programs, lighting, and fire suppression systems. Greene County CSD has also worked to develop clear and efficient processes for staff evaluation and feedback, which has been implemented for the 2023-2024 school year.
