Notification Regarding Participation in a Research Study Dear Parents and Guardians, My name is Dr. Scott Bull and I am a sport management faculty member at Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa.  We are working with the Iowa High School Athletic Association on a study regarding participation in high school football in Iowa. The purpose of the study is to discover reasons for students participating and not participating in the sport of football.  All male high school students in Iowa are being invited to participate in an anonymous survey, which will be conducted in the student’s school.  The IHSAA is facilitating this communication with you to give you the opportunity to decide if you would like your student to participate.  If you and your student agree to participate, we will ask him to complete a short survey to be given at the school in the next two weeks.  The survey will be completed online using a school computer and no personally identifiable information will be collected. If a student indicates at any time that he does not want to participate, he will be thanked and will not participate. Risks and Discomforts: There are no anticipated risks to this study beyond what you would encounter in everyday life. Possible Benefits: Your student will not receive any benefits from participation in the study.  Participation will add to the knowledge on students’ reasons for playing football, or not playing football, in High School. Duration: The s...

As we head into the second half of the regular season, we’d like to make you all aware of one major change for the 2019 state cross country meet. Starting this fall, the IHSAA and IGHSAU will be charging admission for each spectator rather than a parking fee for each vehicle. Here is a link to the release on our site with admission and parking specifics for participating schools, administrators and fans: http://www.iahsaa.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Cross-Country-Ticketing-19.pdf.

Exciting news! Belmond-Klemme Schools will be partnering with Iowa Specialty Hospital to offer telemedicine visits for BK students and staff at Jacobson elementary! A telemedicine visit is when the patient that is sick is able to be seen by a provider via video software. The visit will take place in a private office at Jacobson elementary and be coordinated by an onsite certified medical assistant. Through the telemedicine visit, the provider will be able to see and hear all of the things that they would normally check during a clinic visit; including the patient's lung and heart sounds, as well as checking their ears or throat. Additionally, certain tests, like strep and influenza, will also be able to be run onsite, saving a visit to the clinic. If the patient needs medicine or antibiotics, those prescriptions will be sent to the pharmacy at the conclusion of the visits, making it even easier and faster for the patient to start feeling better soon! Even though the visits will be conducted at Jacobson elementary, the service is available to all staff and students in both buildings. Offering telemedicine visits in schools offers many benefits for our students, parents, and staff. Most importantly, access to care can help ensure that our students and staff miss minimal time within their classrooms. Additionally, telemedicine within the schools helps reduce the time away from work for parents. The cost of a telemedicine visit will be $35, payable by cash or credit card. This money will be colle...
