"Currently, La Nina is 55 to 65 percent likely to affect our climate in the 2017-18 winter season," said Laura Edwards, SDSU Extension www.missourivalleyshopper.com State Climatologist. Historically, La Nina climate patterns have www.missourivalleyshopper.com often meant colder than average winter temperatures in the Dakotas. However, Edwards explained, this www.missourivalleyshopper.com is not consistent, as La Nina events, since 1985, have not been as cold as those between 1950 and 1985. "For the Northern Plains region there is www.missourivalleyshopper.com no correlation between La Nina and winter season precipitation, and as a result it is challenging to forecast winter snowfall," she said. Both of these historical patterns are reflected in the NOAA climate outlook released October 19, 2017. For the months of December through February, much of the northern tier states are more likely to be colder than average, including Call 665-5884 to place an ad. northern South Dakota.

Teacher Of The Year PIERRE, S.D. – Rachel Schaefer, a kindergarten teacher at Elkton Elementary School, has been named the 2018 South Dakota Teacher of the Year. The announcement was made Oct. 19 at a banquet at the Best Western Ramkota in Rapid City. “The Teacher of the Year award is all about celebrating teaching,” said Secretary of Education Dr. Melody Schopp. “Rachel has received this honor not only because of her great work in the kindergarten classroom, but also because she is a strong advocate for the profession as a whole.” Schaefer has taught in the Elkton School District since 2015. She has also worked at the Boys & Girls Club of Brookings, where she served as an administrator and as a preschool/junior kindergarten teacher. Earlier in her career, at the Fishback Center for Early Childhood Education at South Dakota State University, she collaborated on a research project looking at the influence materials have on children’s learning. This research was published as her master’s thesis and later adapted into an article for Young Children magazine. A statewide panel of educators selected Schaefer from among six regional finalists. The other finalists were Cara Biegler, science, Timber Lake Middle School; Caitlin Bordeaux, computer science and multimedia, St. Francis Indian High School; Jennifer Mudder, fifth grade, Tyndall Elementary; Jeremy Risty, social studies, Brandon Valley High School; and Jessica Zwaschka, chemistry, Spearfish High School. As recipient of the honor, Schaefer receives prizes including a $5,000 cash award from the West River Foundation and a $1,000 honorarium from the South Dakota Board of Regents to present a series of professional development seminars to aspiring teachers.

Soybean harvest is nearing completion in South Dakota's northern tier counties, which have been drier overall in recent weeks. Harvest is now underway in southern counties as drier weather has arrived and soil moisture has reduced. Drought conditions continue to hold steady in the west. Some vegetation in drought-stricken areas did begin to green up after receiving rainfall in September. "This does not help grazing this year but indicates that there is some hope for pasture recovery next spring if climate conditions are favorable after this year's drought," Edwards said.
