SFA reading gains are linked to quarterly internal assessment data. These assessments are not
administered or recorded in the same way state assessments are. Additionally when the SFA assessment is taken the student is given the opportunity to correct mistakes. This is a beneficial learning tool, but will skew the data to always show growth. There is no way of knowing if the assessments given internally will meet the state standards on the FORWARD exam. There are no other schools in Wisconsin using the curriculum to compare our internal assessment data.
After speaking with our SFA evaluators I am optimistic that our Students will continue to make gains in reading but without a yardstick in Wisconsin to measure SFA against other than itself - the truth is we just don't know how effective it is yet.

Bullet Voting is not a new concept. Although not illegal, it is a way certain groups try to get their candidate to win. This type of election grabbing tactic is a move to garner power, not necessarily a way to properly represent the people. (Laura J Stuart, 2011)
You get TWO choices for the Manitowoc Public School District Board of Education. Exercise your right to vote for both candidates. Vote the way you want to!

If you pay taxes, this is HUGE!
The following K-3 Literacy Programs scored below the 2.8 acceptable rating out of a 4.0 scale. These programs will not be recommended by the state as acceptable K-3 Early Literacy Programs. We tax payers were promised by the two central office administrators and the Board that;
• SFA was a total K-12 school reform curriculum
• SFA was a total K-12 Literacy Program
Now we, in the MPSD have an unapproved early literacy program, and a SFA binding contract for three years. The contract with MPSD Board of education and the SFA-Foundation is binding until the end of June 2026.
We are now told that we have to purchase a separate writing component for the curriculum.
We just sent the superintendent and assistant superintendent, along with a number of staff to Nashville, Tennessee for a SFA workshop.
By State DPI requirements the MPSD has to have on file an approved K-3 Early Literacy Program by January, 2025. After approval, the MPSD must have administrators, teachers and support staff all trained in that curriculum. All of the state criteria must be met before implementation of any program can begin in the District.
WOW. What’s next?
How much money for a new approved Early Literacy K-3 Curriculum?
How much money for training?
What is the total cost to the District?
How can we meet the January, 2025 State deadline?
We simply cannot continue down this path!

Thank you all for taking the time and effort to cast your vote!

SOME (Not all) SFA Expenditures
I just wanted to share a little information on the costs associated with implementing the SFA reading program in our K-8 buildings. The source of this information was taken directly from the contract signed by SFA Foundation Inc. and the Manitowoc Public School District on 4/21/2023. Authorization signature, Mr. James Feil.
