Valley City (VCPS) Valley City Public Schools Superintendent Josh Johnson has issued an update concerning the current status of COVID-19 protocols in public schools.
The news release states:
“Barnes County did remain in the “Yellow” risk level last week; however, our county COVID-19 numbers have increased over the last two weeks. We need your help to be better in a few areas that specifically involve our students and staff at Valley City Public Schools.”
1) Pending COVID-19 Tests
If an individual in the house is being tested for COVID-19 and if a student would subsequently be considered a close contact, we do not want the student in school or activities until a negative test has been confirmed and/or the quarantine period has expired. In the last week we have had students present in school and in activities while parents were waiting for test results.
2) Household Contacts to a Positive Test
If someone in the house tests positive for COVID-19 and a student was in contact (in the house) with that individual, they cannot be in school until their quarantine expires. The state has changed the process of contact tracing and we do not always know which of our students are household contacts. We need to all do our part to prevent the spread and not send students to school if they are a household contact. Please contact our schools if your student is a close contact because of a household positive.
3) Keep Students at Home when SICK/ILL
Students that are feeling sick/ill should not be in school until they are symptom-free for at least 24 hours. We know this goes against our North Dakota tough attitude, but in the past week we have had students in school that were not feeling well and later tested positive for COVID-19. Please error on the side of caution, if your student is sick keep them at home and if necessary, please consult with a physician, school nurse, and/or city-county health.
Johnson added, “we would request your help in recognizing our educators and the ‘extra’ efforts that they have made to successfully complete 42 days of ‘in-person’ school. We posted some pictures on our Facebook page and would ask you to share and make comments. Thanks for helping us to share our love with all of the educators at Valley City Public Schools.”
In other school news
A news letter issued by Valley City Public Schools Superintendent Josh Johnson, States:
“Our Access for All program is designed to meet the needs of all students at Valley City Public Schools. This program has partnered the VCPS Education Foundation and the Village Family Service Center to provide free services for students in our schools that need professional clinical counseling. The needs of our students have increased since March and the Foundation/School District has responded by increasing available services to 4-days per week. Currently, we have over 34 students receiving services. If you think that you have a student in need of counseling supports, please contact a school counselor, teacher, or school principal to learn more about the Access for All program. We would love to tell you more about this program.

Bismarck (NDDHS) The North Dakota Department of Human Services’ Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) presented performance and recognition awards to over a dozen employees at its annual training conference this week in Bismarck.
Together, division vocational rehabilitation professionals helped 525 North Dakotans with disabilities obtain competitive, integrated employment in their communities between Oct. 1, 2019 and Sept. 30, 2020.
The division presented Raena McIntyre of the Jamestown office with the Director’s Award for Excellence. In nominating her, peers stated McIntyre is focused and dedicated in her work with clients and inspires team members to do more. They also said she is a major contributor to the positive and collaborative culture of their office and is a great representative of the VR program in the community, as she works with schools, businesses, clients and other community partners.
Casey Howell and Megan Stone from the Fargo office and Tami Froelich from the Grand Forks office received the Award for Counselor Achievement, which recognizes the top 10 percent of counselors who helped the most people become employed.
Jacque Harder and Rebecca Martin from the Fargo office and Jerry Severson from the Grand Forks office received the Award for Counselor Achievement – Honorable Mention for having the second highest number of clients to achieve employment.
DVR presented Allyson Berner and her colleagues in the Minot office with the Exemplary Service Award for providing outstanding case service to clients through creative thinking, direct work with multiple agencies and consistent client follow-up.
The VR Team Participation Award was presented to the Minot office for their involvement in community activities on behalf of the division.
The division named Williston office employee Danielle Jenkins Rookie of the Year. This award honors a DVR employee who has less than two years of service, exceeds performance goals and displays a high level of community service and involvement.
The Pillar Award, which recognizes support staff who contribute to the success of individuals with disabilities to become employed, was presented to Bobbie Bosworth from the Minot office and Connie Gange from the Jamestown office.
The division also presented career achievement awards, which are based on the number of people with disabilities placed into employment over the course of a VR counselor’s career. Catherine Quintane of the Bismarck office and Megan Stone of the Fargo office received the Career Achievement – 100 Club Award. Becki Hoff of the Dickinson office and Tanya Ide of the Minot office received the Career Achievement – 200 Club Award.
Division staff members provide assessments and counseling to help individuals identify strengths and goals, connect individuals to training, education, assistive technology and supportive services, and provide job placement assistance.
To receive VR services, North Dakotans must have a disability that is an obstacle to employment, and they must want to work and be available to work.
The DVR team also connects businesses to qualified prospective employees who can meet their workforce needs and provides assistance so businesses can retain employees affected by disabilities and find solutions to other disability-related issues.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Five of the six states with the nation’s lowest unemployment rates are in the Midwest, have Republican governors and have almost no restrictions intended to slow the spread of the coronavirus. Those governors have said their lack of mask mandates or other restrictions are a big reason why their states are riding out the pandemic relatively well, but economists say it’s not so simple. Economists say a lack of mandates might help, but of even greater importance is the fact that Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa and Missouri have economies that rely heavily on industries that weren’t hit as hard by the pandemic.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Fargo police are investigating four weekend shootings that left three people injured. Authorities haven’t said whether they believe the shootings Saturday night and early Sunday are connected. A 23-year-old man showed up at a Fargo hospital with a gunshot wound about 11 p.m. Saturday. He was not cooperating with investigators. A short time later, officers responded to a report of gunshots and found a vehicle had been struck by gunfire. Police say four people in the vehicle were not hurt. Early Sunday, police found a man shot in the abdomen and another man was found wounded outside the fire department headquarters.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Officials in one of North Dakota’s largest school districts are discussing whether to have older children head back to classrooms, even as the state struggles with the worst outbreak of coronavirus in the nation. A task force that was formed when parents and others complained after the Fargo Public School District opted for distance learning has its next meeting Monday. The group said at its last meeting that it would discuss plans to send junior and senior high students back to class.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Authorities say a drunk driver who was fleeing from police after driving the wrong way on a Fargo street was arrested after her vehicle became stuck in a cemetery. Police say officers tried to stop the 33-year-old driver at about 4:30 a.m. Saturday on the north side of town but she refused to pull over. KFGO radio reports that her vehicle eventually bottomed out in the Holy Cross Cemetery near the airport. The women is facing charges for driving under the influence refusing to take a DUI test, and fleeing an officer in a vehicle. She is also wanted on a Grand Forks County warrant. Authorities say no grave sites were damaged.

Dickinson State 26 VCSU 14
VALLEY CITY – The NAIA Game of the Week was another thriller Saturday in Valley City. Valley City State and Dickinson State played to a 14-14 tie through three quarters before the Blue Hawks scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns to clinch the NSAA conference championship.
Dickinson quarterback Drew Boedecker found Jaret Lee in the end zone for a 18-yard touchdown with 9:43 remaining, breaking the tie and propelling Dickinson to a 26-14 victory.
After Dickinson State went ahead 14-0 at halftime, the Vikings rallied with two third-quarter touchdowns to tie the game at 14-14. VCSU had an opportunity to take the lead, but fumbled at the goal-line late in the third quarter. The teams traded unproductive drives before the Blue Hawks took advantage of the stiff wind at their backs in the fourth quarter, marching 66 yards for the go-ahead touchdown pass to Lee.
Valley City State drops to 4-2 overall this season. The Vikings are scheduled to be back in action Nov. 14 at Dakota State University
With the victory, Dickinson State improves its record to 8-0 this season. The win also clinches the NSAA conference championship for Dickinson.
Saturday’s game was played under adverse wind conditions, with a steady northwest breeze at 30-35 miles per hour and gusts approaching 50 miles per hour. Of the six touchdowns scored Saturday, only one came with the offense going against the wind. That came on Dickinson’s opening drive of the game as they put together a 75-yard drive on 13 plays – 11 of which were runs. The drive took eight minutes off the clock and was by far the most success either offense had going into the wind. Boedecker capped the drive with a rare pass – a 14-yard score to Tyger Frye.
The Blue Hawks put together another long drive in second quarter, going 77 yards in 11 plays for their second touchdown – a 3-yard run by Riley Linder – and a 14-0 lead.
In the third quarter, with the wind at their backs, it was Valley City State’s turn to create some offense. After VCSU’s defense forced a quick punt, the Vikings went 58 yards in seven plays to find the end zone. Viking quarterback Jalen Pfeifer found receiver Ben Carter for a touchdown on a third-and-goal from the 9-yard line.
Later in the quarter, VCSU’s Mack Jones recovered a fumbled punt at the 17-yard line to set up their second touchdown. Taylor Simmons capped the short drive with a 2-yard touchdown run and Nico Magana added the extra point to tie the game at 14-14.
The Viking defense again force a three-and-out punt and VCSU had their first chance to take the lead. Two big scrambles by Pfeifer jump-started the drive and then Michael Cornelious took a screen pass down to the 4-yard line. On 2nd-and-goal from the 1-yard line Pfeifer plunged forward and tried to reach the ball over the goal line, but a Dickinson State defender knocked it out of his hands and Reece Hoherz recovered the fumble at the 1-yard line for the Blue Hawks.
VCSU’s defense held strong and the Vikings took over at the Blue Hawk 34-yard line late in the quarter. A 24-yard pass to Dumond put the Vikings in the red zone, but the drive stalled out. A strong outside rush on Magana’s 27-yard field goal attempt forced the kick wide left and kept the game tied at 14-14 at the end of the third quarter.
After a pair of unproductive possessions, Dickinson State started the go-ahead drive on their own 34-yard line with 12:12 remaining. With the wind at their backs, the Blue Hawks passed on five consecutive plays to start the drive and then finished it with Lee’s 18-yard touchdown reception. Dickinson State added another late score after VCSU turned it over on downs deep in their own territory.
VCSU’s offense managed 236 total yards, including 117 on the ground and 119 passing yards. Simmons had 16 carries for 57 yards and Pfeifer gained 57 yards on 14 carries. Pfeifer was 7-for-32 passing for 119 yards and one interception. Cornelious had three catches for 56 yards and Dumond caught three passes for 54 yards.
Boedecker went 18-for-27 passing for 168 yards. He was a rushing threat as well, gaining 68 yards on 16 carries. Riley Linder had 46 yards on 17 carries. The Blue Hawks finished with 321 totals yards, including 153 rushing and 168 passing.
Dustin Kasowski led the Viking defense with 14 tackles. Sal Avila totaled 11 tackles and a fumble recovery, and Marshaun Jones had 11 tackles and one tackle for loss. Riley Gerhardt finished with 10 tackles and a sack, and Braeden Potter had eight tackles and a sack.
Nick Miller led Dickinson’s defense with seven tackles and a sack. Presley Piliate had six tackles and two sacks.
Dickinson State improves to 8-0 and clinches the North Star Athletic Association conference championship.
VCSU is now 4-2.
Up next: VCSU plays at Dakota State on Nov. 14. Dickinson State host Presentation College on Nov. 7.

NFL..
— The Vikings surprised the Packers in Green Bay, 28-22 as Dalvin Cook became the first Minnesota player since Ahmad Rashad in 1979 to score four touchdowns in a single game. Cook racked up 226 yards from scrimmage and reached the end zone on each of the Vikings’ first four possessions. The Packers dropped to 5-2 despite Davante Adams’ three touchdowns.
— Green Bay still leads the NFC North by a half-game game after Wil Lutz nailed a 35-yard field goal in overtime to give the Saints a 26-23 victory over the Bears. The 5-2 Saints led 23-13 early in the fourth quarter after scoring 20 consecutive points, only to have Cairo Santos boot a 51-yard field goal at the end of regulation to tie it for Chicago. Drew Brees threw two touchdowns to regain the NFL’s all-time lead from Tom Brady, whose Buccaneers play the Giants on Monday.
— Drew Lock hit rookie KJ Hamler from a yard out and no time on the clock before Brandon McManus nailed the extra point to give the Broncos a shocking 31-30 win over the Chargers. The 3-4 Broncos overcame a 24-3 deficit and rallied after being held to just 60 first-half yards, including 2 on the ground. The Chargers fell to 2-5 by becoming the first team to lose three games they led by 17 or more points in the same season since the Atlanta Falcons did it in 2003.
— The Eagles still control first place in the lowly NFC East at 3-4-1 following a 23-9 win versus the Cowboys. Carson Wentz threw a pair of touchdown passes to overcome four turnovers. Rodney McLeod returned a fumble 53 yards for a score as Philadelphia dealt the 2-6 Cowboys their third straight loss.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have matched the best start in team history while retaining first place in the AFC North.
The Steelers are 7-0 after turning a 17-7 halftime deficit into a 28-24 win over the Ravens in Baltimore. Ben Roethlisberger (RAWTH’-lihs-bur-gur) tossed a pair of second-half touchdown passes to help the Steelers remain the NFL’s only unbeaten team. After completing only four of 10 passes for 24 yards in the first half, the 38-year-old Roethlisberger finished 21 for 32 for 182 yards.
Reigning MVP Lamar Jackson had a miserable day, losing a pair of fumbles and completing just 13 of his 28 passes for 208 yards and two touchdowns. Jackson was stopped on fourth down at the Pittsburgh Steelers with less than two minutes remaining and had a pass batted down in the end zone on the game’s final play.
— Russell Wilson threw two of his four touchdown passes to DK Metcalf and the Seahawks rebounded from their first loss of the season with a resounding 37-27 win over the 49ers. Seattle broke it open when Wilson hit DeeJay Dallas and David Moore for TDs about 2 1/2 minutes apart in the third quarter to go ahead, 27-7. Wilson has 26 scoring passes this year, one behind Tom Brady for the most in the first seven games of a season.
— Tennessee dropped its second straight since a 5-0 start as Joe Burrow threw two fourth-quarter TD passes in the Bengals’ 31-20 victory over the Titans. Burrow was 26 of 37 for 249 yards and no interceptions as Cincinnati improved to 2-5-1. The Titans lost despite Derrick Henry’s 112 yards rushing and a touchdown.
— Cam Newton fumbled in the red zone with 31 seconds remaining to secure the Bills’ 24-21 win over the Patriots. Zack Moss ran for two scores and the AFC East-leading Bills improved to 6-2 for the second straight year. New England dropped to 2-5 and has lost four in a row, matching its worst skid since 2002.
— Tua Tagovailoa (TOO-uh tuhng-ah-vy-LOH’-ah) threw his first career touchdown pass and the Dolphins moved to 4-3 by dumping the Rams, 28-17. The No. 5 overall pick in this year’s draft finished 12 of 22 for 93 yards in his first career start. The Dolphins struck for scores 75 seconds apart on Andrew Van Ginkel’s 78-yard fumble return and Jakeem Grant’s team-record 88-yard punt return.
— Derek Carr threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Hunter Renfrow early in the fourth quarter and Daniel Carlson kicked three field goals as the Raiders beat the Browns 16-6. Carr’s strike to Renfrow with 14:53 to go was the game’s only TD and helped the 4-3 Raiders bounce back after last week’s loss to Tampa Bay. Josh Jacobs finished with a career-high 128 yards as Las Vegas dropped the Browns to 5-3. Cleveland played much of the second half without NFL sacks leader Myles Garrett, who could miss the rest of the season after suffering a knee injury in the first quarter.
— The Colts blew out the Lions, 41-21 as Philip Rivers threw three touchdown passes in the second quarter. Rivers picked apart Detroit’s defense while completing 23 of 33 attempts, mostly short passes to the outside or over the middle. Nyheim Hines furnished two touchdowns in the second period as the 5-2 Colts dealt Detroit its seventh consecutive home loss.
— The Chiefs cruised to a 35-9 rout of the Jets behind Patrick Mahomes (mah-HOHMZ’), who threw for 416 yards and five touchdowns. Tyreek Hill had 98 yards receiving and two touchdowns for the 7-1 Chiefs, while Travis Kelce (KEHL’-see) had 109 yards and another score. The Jets managed just 221 yards total offense in falling to 0-8 for the first time since 1996.
T25 FOOTBALL-POLL
UNDATED (AP) — Clemson remains No. 1 in The Associated Press college football poll, but not by much. Trevor Lawrence’s absence because of COVID-19 and the Tigers’ narrow victory over Boston College created a divide among the 62 sports writers and broadcasters on the voting panel.
Clemson is just two points ahead of No. 2 Alabama after receiving 33 first-place votes, 19 fewer than last week. The Crimson Tide closed the gap with Saturday’s 41-0 rout of Mississippi State, the first shutout loss for head coach Mike Leach.
The rest of the top five remained the same, with Ohio State at No. 3, followed by Notre Dame and Georgia. Sixth-ranked Cincinnati is followed by Texas A&M, Florida, BYU and Wisconsin.
Liberty cracked the poll for the first time ever at No. 25, while Penn State dropped out for the first time in four years.
MLB-NEWS
Stanton keeps contract
UNDATED (AP) — Giancarlo Stanton is keeping the remaining $218 million and seven guaranteed years in his New York Yankees contract rather than opt out after a pair of injury-decimated seasons.
Stanton hit .250 with four homers and 11 RBIs in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, limited to 23 games by a strained left hamstring that sidelined him from Aug. 9 to Sept. 15. He rebounded to become the Yankees’ best offensive player in the playoffs, hitting .308 with six homers and 13 RBIs in 26 at-bats over seven games.
Stanton also dealt with injuries in 2019, limiting him to 18 games. He hit .266 with 38 homers and 100 RBIs in his first season with the Yankees in 2018.
In other MLB news:
— The Padres declined a $3 million option on Mitch Moreland, who hit .203 with two homers and eight RBIs in 69 at-bats after being acquired from Boston on Aug. 30. The 35-year-old batted .328 with eight homers and 21 RBIs for the Red Sox before the trade.
— Relievers Dellin Betances and Brad Brach (brahk) are staying with the Mets after exercising their contract options for next year. Both hurlers are coming off poor seasons. Betances pitched to a 7.71 ERA in 15 appearances last season, while Brach logged a 5.84 earned run average in 14 games after missing the start of the season due to COVID-19. The Mets made an $18.9 million qualifying offer to right-hander Marcus Stroman, who became a free agent.
— The Diamondbacks have exercised their option on pitcher Merrill Kelly for $4.25 million. The 32-year-old right-hander was 3-2 with a 2.55 ERA in five starts during the pandemic-shortened season.
— The Orioles have picked up the $3.5 million club contract option on shortstop José Iglesias. He batted .373 with three homers and 24 RBIs in 39 games in this past season, his first with the Orioles.

SOUTHAMPTON, Bermuda (AP) — Brian Gay has earned his fifth PGA Tour title by capturing the Bermuda Championship.
Gay sank a 12-foot birdie putt on the first extra hole to beat Wyndham Clark. The 48-year-old Gay rallied from a three-shot deficit on the back nine and birdied 18 for a 7-under 64. He piled up nine birdies over his last 14 holes to finish 15 under for the tournament.

In world and national news…
OPA-LOCKA, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump is suggesting he’ll fire Dr. Anthony Fauci after Tuesday’s election, as his rift with the nation’s top infectious disease expert widens while the nation sees its most alarming outbreak of the coronavirus since the spring. Speaking early Monday at a campaign rally in Opa-locka, Florida, Trump expressed frustration that the surging cases of a virus that has killed more than 231,000 people in the United States remains in the news, sparking chants of “Fire Fauci” from his supporters. Trump replied, “Don’t tell anybody, but let me wait until a little bit after the election.” Fauci has grown outspoken that Trump has ignored his advice for containing the virus.
PHILADEPHIA (AP) — America stands at a crossroads the day before Election Day. Never before in modern history has it faced a choice between two candidates who offer such opposite visions in a time of such great stakes. President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden are poised Monday to give their closing arguments as to why each is the better fit to steer a nation confronted with a once-in-a-century pandemic, the starkest economic contraction since the Great Depression and a citizenry divided on cultural and racial issues. More than 93 million people have already voted. Each campaign insists it has a pathway to victory.
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Gunmen have stormed Kabul University as it hosted a book fair attended by the Iranian ambassador to Afghanistan. That sparked an hourslong gunbattle Monday at the war-torn country’s largest school that saw students flee for their lives. As the sun slowly set over the Afghan capital, details remained few though the Taliban issued a statement denying it took part in the assault as it continues peace talks with the U.S.-backed government. Suspicion immediately fell on the Islamic State group. Last month, the Islamic State group sent a suicide bomber into an education center in the capital’s Shiite dominated neighborhood of Dasht-e-Barchi, killing 24 students and injuring more than 100.
PARIS (AP) — French schools held a minute of silence after reopening for the first time since the beheading of a teacher who opened a class debate on free speech by showing students caricatures of the prophet of Islam. Monday was marked as one of national homage for the teacher, Samuel Paty. Paty was killed Oct. 16 outside his school in suburban Paris by an 18-year-old Chechen refugee. The cartoons published by the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo triggered a newsroom massacre by extremists in January 2015. Since their re-publication in September at the start of the Paris trial over the killings, France has endured three attacks blamed on Muslim extremists.
MOSCOW (AP) — Former U.S. security contractor Edward Snowden says he and his wife plan to apply for Russian citizenship without renouncing their U.S. nationality. The former contractor for the National Security Agency has been living in Russia since 2013 to escape prosecution in the U.S. after leaking classified documents detailing government surveillance programs. Snowden’s wife, who is American, said last week the couple was expecting a child. According to Snowden’s lawyer, the child, a boy, will have Russian citizenship. Snowden said Monday he doesn’t want to be separated from his son “in this era of pandemics and closed borders.”
IZMIR, Turkey (AP) — As onlookers applauded in joy and wept with relief, rescue teams in Turkey brought two girls out alive from the wreck of collapsed apartment buildings in the coastal city of Izmir. Their separate rescues Monday came three days after a strong earthquake centered in the Aegean Sea hit Turkey and Greece and caused buildings to collapse. The overall death toll in Friday’s quake reached 87 after teams discovered more bodies in Izmir, Turkey’s third-largest city. About 1,000 people were also injured. Rescue worker Muammer Celik told NTV television that he thought 3-year-old Elif Perinchek was dead when he first reached her inside the wreckage. He says ‘when I cleaned the dust from her face, she opened her eyes. I was astonished.”
