EVSC’s Delaware Elementary Receives Donation from United Fidelity Bank
Thanks to a $2,500 donation from United Fidelity Bank, Delaware Elementary School now has additional funds to help support the implementation of the school’s Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) Rewards program.
PBIS is a program designed to help encourage positive behaviors in students. The Rewards Program at Delaware enables staff members in the school to award students points when desired positive behaviors are observed and demonstrated. PBIS Rewards also help in enhancing and promoting a greater culture of academic success in the classroom. Students have badges that are scanned by teachers using a smartphone app, or the teachers can award points through the PBIS Rewards website, allowing teachers to customize classes and add whole class points. The points can then be saved like money and used to purchase items from Delaware’s PBIS Rewards store, the SOAR Store.
“We are looking forward to this partnership with United Fidelity Bank, and their willingness to help our students SOAR to new heights,†said Julie Underwood, Delaware principal.
The donation by United Fidelity Bank is not just one of money, but of time and a commitment to forging a partnership to improve Delaware and the financial literacy of our students. United Fidelity Bank will provide bank team members to help manage the SOAR Store, to help professionally decorate the store, and to help promote greater understanding of financial responsibilities through the PBIS Rewards point system. In turn, bank members will be able to teach our students how to save, set goals, and manage points to spend more wisely. Delaware is looking forward to this partnership with United Fidelity Bank and their willingness to help our students SOAR to new heights!
“We are excited, and appreciate the opportunity to provide the students and facility of Delaware Elementary the ability to participate in such a meaningful program,” said United Fidelity President and CEO Donald R. Neel. “This program also gives our employees an opportunity to provide basic financial education and to interact with students directly as they visit the SOAR Store and learn more about their needs.â€

Stein named Academic All-District 4
University of Southern Indiana junior guard Alex Stein (Evansville, Indiana) was named Division II Academic All-District 4 by the College Sports Information Directors of America. The award is the second of Stein’s career and the third in the history of the USI men’s basketball program.
The first USI men’s basketball player to earn the Academic All-District honor was Craig Martin in 1993.
To be eligible for the CoSIDA Academic All-America and All-District teams, the student athlete must be a starter or important reserve with legitimate athletic credentials and at least a 3.3 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale). They must have reached sophomore athletic and academic standing at the institution (true freshmen, red-shirt freshmen and first-year athletic transfers are not eligible) and must have completed at least one full academic year at the institution. The Division II Academic All-America team will be released in March.
Stein, a business administration major, is averaging 18.0 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game as he enters tonight’s action at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside and leads all three NCAA divisions with a 96.2 free throw percentage (125-130). He set a USI record with 54 consecutive free throws made earlier this year and scored a season-high 31 points in the win over Lake Superior State University.
The 2017 Basketball Times Preseason All-American set the USI all-time record for free throws made (392) this season and became the 20th USI player all-time to reach 1,000 career points, moving up to fifth with 1,450 career points. Stein has recorded double-digits in scoring 78 times during his career, eclipsing 20-or-more points 20 times and 30-or-more points three times.
Following the USI and UW-Parkside match-up tonight at 7:30 p.m., Stein and the Eagles finish the regular season Saturday at Lewis University for a 3 p.m. tip-off.
