King County voters will decide whether to add an aver-age of $4 per month in property taxes to their bill this fall.
The King County Council voted 8-1 in favor of putting King County Executive Dow Constantine’s “Best Starts for Kids” initiative on the Nov. 3 ballot. District 9 Councilman Reagan Dunn was the dissent-ing vote.
Dunn said he voted against putting the measure on the ballot because he is concerned
about junior taxing districts.He said the county’s tax
levy would supersede sever-al fire, hospital and park dis-tricts throughout King County, which would potentially cause those districts to lose some of their revenue stream. The effect would be even greater if, over the life of the new levy, an eco-nomic stagnation occurs, Dunn added.
The proposed levy would be for six years and is aimed at funding early intervention programs and early childhood development

Beau Ward, 10, received a high-energy welcome home parade after he returned from the hospital Aug. 18. Beau and his friend Carter were burned in a gasoline fire in late May. Beau suffered burns on 65 percent of his body. Friends, neighbors and well-
wishers who came to the parade all wore pink (his favorite color) and cheered for Beau as he passed by in an Enumclaw Fire Department ladder truck, driven by the firefighters who responded to the explosion. Photos by Maryn Otto and Ray Still

Water service rights in The Villages still disputed | Part 1
Black Diamond prepares ordinance to assume service rights
By Ray StillReporter
Editor’s note: This is part one in a series of articles on the water service dispute between the city of Black Diamond and the Covington Water District. Both claim service rights to 98 acres inside the Black Diamond city limits. This week’s article examines each entity’s claim to exclusive right to the 98 acres of land. Next week will examine statements made in Black Diamond’s 2009 Water Comprehensive Plan and how that may affect the city’s claim to the land.
After a week-long public hearing session, the Black Diamond City Council decided to table a vote Thursday on whether or not the city should assume water service rights to 98 acres at the edge of The Villages develop-ment in the city.
The city and the Covington Water District have been in a dispute over these 98 acres since at least 2008, which has come to a head this year.
For a myriad of reasons, both Black Diamond and the Covington Water District claim exclusive rights to serve water to future residents of this portion

Highway motorists may expe-rience some temporary inconve-nience during the coming weeks and months as work crews add lanes of travel to a busy stretch of state Route 410 in Enumclaw.
The long-talked-about “chan-nelization” project was launched last week. Work is expected to last until early December. Work on underground utilities is being tackled first.
The work area is between Mt. Villa Drive/Monroe Avenue and Griffin Avenue. Those who prefer
landmarks will note the project area sits between the QFC and Safeway stores.
When completed, drivers will see a new five-lane configuration on SR 410 - two travel lanes in each direction with a continuous left-turn lane. As part of the project, there will be greater pedestrian access and new sideways and curb ramps that meet guidelines set by the Americans With Disabilities Act.
During construction, drivers will experience intersection clo-sures, detours and lane restric-

of The Villages, a 1,196 acre development in the south-western part of the city. State law prevents water service providers from overlapping service areas.
The 98 acres in question is at the north-western edge of The Villages.
According to the water district, those 98 acres are worth $5 million in water connection charge revenue and an additional $4 million in water con-sumption revenue over the next 20 years.
Cit y Ord i na nce 15-1058, if approved by Black Diamond, will start the official process of assuming, or taking over, those 98 acres, giv-ing Black Diamond the exclusive right to serve that area.
The City Council vote on the ordinance is sched-uled for Sept. 3, which allows the city staff to examine comments and questions raised during the public hearing.
The Covington Water District plans to appeal to the King County Boundary Review Board if Black Diamond passes this ordinance.
Who has exclusive
rights?According to Black
Diamond, the dispute over these 98 acres was over before it began when the city annexed the The Villages in 2005.
The annexation of The Villages and King County’s approval of the city’s 2009 Water Comprehensive Plan gave the city the exclusive right to supply water to those 98 acres, Black Diamond wrote in the background section of Agenda Bill 15-057, presented to the public during the Aug. 20 City Council meeting.
Black Diamond stated Covington Water District did not formally appeal either the annexation or the 2009 water compre-hensive plan.
Covington Water District argues the annex-ation of The Villages does not automatically give the city exclusive rights to serve those 98 acres. The district claims the right to serve that area because it was given to them under the 1989 South King County Coordinated Water System Plan.
In order to settle this dispute, the Covington Water District appealed
to the King County Utility Technical Review Committee on Feb. 17, 2015. The Utility Technical Rev iew Committee (UTRC) is given authority by the South King County Coordinated Water System Plan to hear water service boundary disputes and make decisions based on both party’s argu-ments.
On May 1, the UTRC made four decisions based on the arguments given by Covington Water District, the city of Black Diamond and YarrowBay.
The first two UTRC decisions were the 98 acres are within the jurisdic-tion of Covington Water District and the district was able to demonstrate it could serve water to future residents in a time-ly and reasonable manner.
The UTRC also ruled the city of Black Diamond could provide timely and reasonable water service to future residents, and the city could statutori-ly assume those 98 acres under chapter 35.13A of the Revised Code of Washington, consistent with RCW 70.116.090.
Under RCW 35.13A, a city may assume, or take over, any portion of a water district that over-laps with the city’s legal boundaries.
The UTRC stated Black Diamond had the right to assume the prop-erty for water service, and the committee chair stated the county would most likely prefer Black Diamond, and not the Covington Water District, to be the water service provider in that area.
“If you look at com-prehensive planning, the Growth Management Act, and the idea that cities are the preferred form of governance, especially in the urban area and in the potential annexation areas then we defer to cities, and the county respects the authority for cities to take care of their own business,” Steve Hirschey, chair of the UTRC, said during a phone conversa-tion.
While the UTRC decid-ed it was within the city’s rights to assume those 98 acres and the city is most likely the preferred water service provider, Black Diamond appealed the UTRC decision. The city’s position is annexing The Villages property gives Black Diamond exclusive right to serve water to those 98 acres outside the assumption process.
To this point, Hirschey said, “The city of Black Diamond and Yarrow bay have argued that previ-
ous actions have some-how made that part of the disputed service area their service area. They did an annexation, and an annexation has its own statutory framework. It has its own approval pro-cess. But it’s not tanta-mount to an assumption. There are statues that say if the city wants to take over the operations and responsibilities of the district, that they should assume them.”
Black Diamond’s appeal of the UTRC decision is expected to be heard by the King County Hearing Examiner in November.
Either party may
dispute the Hearing Examiner’s decision, which move the dispute to the King County Superior Court.
Although the city plans to continue with its appeal, the city has stated, “completing assumption may reduce litigation and lead to a more efficient resolution of the matter,” in council documents.
The city also said that going through the assumption process does not mean the city admits the assumption process was necessary.

for kids in King County, according to a release from Constantine.
A county release also stated the levy would gen-erate approximately $58.3 million in 2016. About 50 percent of those funds would go toward early childhood development programs for children up to age 5. About 35 percent would go to programs that
assist kids and adults ages 6 through 24, 10 percent to community programs that “improve health, social and economic outcomes,” and 5 percent would be used for “evaluation, data collection and program improvement.”
Constantine stressed the importance of investing in kids’ health early on to prevent future problems.
“We have the means, the shared commitment and now the opportunity to put every child in King County on a path toward lifelong success,” he said. “Thanks to (the) action by council members, vot-ers will have the option to invest earlier in the
development of our chil-dren and youth, when we have the greatest chance to help them reach their full potential.”
According to a University of Washington study published in April of this year, there is a “causal”
link between early home environments and kids’ stress response systems.
In an article published the same day of the study, UWToday writer Deborah Bach summarized the results of the research and stated early intervention methods can help miti-gate children’s responses to stress later in life, “but only if that happens before age 2.”
The lead author in the study, Katie McLaughlin, is a UW assistant professor of psychology.
She is quoted in Bach’s article stating, “The early environment has a very strong impact on how the stress response system in the body develops…. But even kids exposed to a very extreme negative environ-ment who are placed into a supportive family can overcome those effects in the long term.”
The levy would be at a rate of 14 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value.

tions. Among other things, there will be traf-fic slowdowns near the construction area and some parking restric-tions.
The total price tag for the project is nearly $1.9 million. The bulk of the cost, almost $1.5 million, is being paid by a federal grant, with the remaining paid by the city. The city share is funded through real estate excise taxes and impact fees.

Members of the community now have a means to respectfully dis-pose of faded and tattered American flags, thanks to an Eagle Scout proj-ect tackled by 15-year-old Zachary Thorley.
“I wanted choose a service proj-ect that would mean something to the community and honor my fam-ily members and other members of the community who are veterans,” Zachary wrote in an email. His father is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force, his grandfather is a Navy veteran who served during the Vietnam War and two of his great-grandfathers are vet-erans of World War II.
Zachary, a member of Boy Scout Troop 303 in Enumclaw, has initi-ated a two-phase project. The first
step was to build three “retire-ment boxes” where anyone can drop a flag that has frayed, faded, become tattered or just is show-ing signs of age. Those boxes will be placed at Enumclaw City Hall, the Enumclaw fire station and at the local Veterans of Foreign Wars hall. Flags will be collected until Veterans Day, when they are cer-emonially burned.
The U.S. flag code states: “The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.” When done properly, no trace of the flag should remain.
The Eagle Scout project was made possible thanks to donations by Delta Technology, Home Depot, RK Graphics and Olympic Energy.

Compromise: you pray for me, I’ll pray for you
The following is in response to “It’s a mistake to assume all in U.S. are Christians, Courier-Herald, Aug. 19.
I have never stated or implied that all in the U.S. are Christian; a majority are probably not (Biblically speaking).
The term “Christian,” unless defined, can mean or be tagged to anything. Example: “The Holy Order
of the Christian Slug” – an extreme example I know, but one that might catch on in the Northwest.
As for the pesky 11th Commandment, my Bible says God wrote 10 on tablets of stone and in this age of grace Jesus condensed them down to two. Maybe it was written on the back?
As for the First Amendment, I am exercising it right now. What a great country! I hope it remains that way.
Jesus was not a Christian, you are correct. He is, however, the chief cornerstone of the Christian faith (Christian means Christ follower). Concerning Leviticus 11, Jesus said
he was the fulfillment of the law and I accept that. Thirty-three thousand different Christian denominations, wow, that’s quite a few. I would refer you to “terms defined.” Judaism pur-ports to go back to the beginning of all things. Jesus taught this and as my Lord I believe him. Islam is 200 to 300 maybe 400 years after Jesus, depends on who you read.
M. Thornton, maybe your anger would be better directed against the followers of a belief system that advo-cates burning people alive, throwing them off buildings, cutting off limbs,
For centuries people have separated children based on their gender. When a girl is born, she is the little princess and when a boy is born he is the little man.
There is nothing wrong or bad about this. Wrapping a newborn girl in a pink blanket as opposed to a blue one for a boy has no affect on the child.
It only becomes wrong and possibly harmful to the child when parents force a child to grow up based on these sex stereotypes.
I grew up as a tom-boy. I didn’t like to wear dresses or pink hair ties, I played outside in the dirt and wore boots and overalls. This wasn’t
a bad thing. My parents didn’t think anything was wrong with me, they just knew I enjoyed being a tomboy.
When I grew older I took martial arts classes, which many people see as a male sport. The studio I practiced in was next to a ballet studio. Many of the ballerina girls and parents would tell me that I should not act like a boy, or that it was improper for me to spar with the boys.
This is more common than you would think. If you look around, you will see these gender stereotypes exist every-where.
Most boys play catch in the backyard while most girls stay inside to play. The key word here is “most.” There are many cases where girls participate in stereotypical “boy activities” and many cases where boys enjoy “girl activities.”
These gender stereotypes for children come from many times and places in their lives. It starts with the parents as they influence the young lives. Parents will always have the most influence on a child, but it lessens as the child begins to grow up, make new friends, and find new influences in their lives.
The second influence in a child’s life is school. Spending eight hours a day, five days a week, during the school year is a lot of time to be influenced. Teachers and friends will all either directly or indirectly affect the child’s life.
In most cases the parents and other influences in the child’s life will teach them boys and girls play different sports and dress in different ways. There is nothing wrong with this, as long as children like what they are doing.
When children begin to grow up and learn what they like, they start making decisions of their own. They start out as small decisions of course, but they will all affect the child as he or she grows up. And if a parent was to keep a child from doing something he or she enjoys because it is not the appropriate sex for the activity, that is when the stereotype becomes harmful to the child and can immensely affect the kind of person the child becomes.
The issue here is not what boys and girls should do. It’s what they want to do. Instead of raising a child solely based on gender stereotypes, allow him or her to try different things. Encourage the young boys to try art; encourage the young girls to play a sport. There is nothing wrong with liking something that normally “belongs” to the opposite sex.
I grew up knowing being a tomboy was just me being me, because my parents accepted me and made sure I knew I was loved unconditionally. Even though I had to ignore others and their harsh judgments, I knew that being me was perfectly perfect.
When stereotypes become harmful

It is always easy to point out flaws. To prove this, just look at whatever is hot in the news media right now: the police and race, terrorism, the job rating of the president or Congress, the Republican primary process, the Iran vote – the list can be nearly endless.
It is human nature to see the flaws
in whatever human activity we are engaged in. This is called deconstruc-tion. And its seems that the more highly educated or skilled a person may be, the greater the ability a person
has to point out weaknesses.My last high school principal had
some pretty sage advice to his faculty and staff: if we wanted to come in
to complain about something, we should also come in with suggestions on how the complaint could/should be resolved.
The goal at the recent three-week National Academy for Civics and Government I attended in Los Angeles was not to deconstruct. My presiding professor, Will Harris, announced his approach during the academy on the first night: our goal was to look for what was useful for
SEE ELFERS, PAGE 7
SEE LETTER, PAGE 7
our Constitution’s historic and philosophic founda-tions: Aristotle, Cicero, the Bible, Hobbes, Locke or Madison.
We were not to ignore the flaws; we were to put them in the background in our search for insight and wisdom.
Sometimes deconstruct-ing things is helpful. The problem is that the experts who deconstruct don’t fin-ish the job. The second half requires that they put things back together in a better, more efficient way.
To demonstrate my point, I typed “criticism of Aristotle” into a search engine. There are literally hundreds of articles and papers describing what’s wrong with Aristotle’s thinking when he discussed the need for virtue and find-ing balance and moderation in all human action.
As a second example, Professor Harris looked at themes from Aristotle’s writings in his book “Politics.” The book deals with the importance of equality in a well-function-ing government. Aristotle noted that where there is equality there is justice.
His idea of equal-ity, though different from
Thomas Jefferson’s view, eventually worked its way down to Jefferson, the principle author of the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson chose to ignore Aristotle’s selective view of equality: “Equality (is) for those who are equal but not for all.” Women and slaves, because they did not have the time to serve in government, did not have the same status as free men. When Jefferson stated, “All men are created equal,” he meant to include slaves and women in that statement.
My continuing concern in this column about a diminishing middle class and the rising power of the elites comes from Aristotle’s thoughts: “The best form of political association is one
where power is vested in the middle class…. Where the middle class is large, there is less likelihood of faction and dissension than in any other constitution…. In addition, factious dis-putes and struggles readily arise between the masses and the rich: and the side, whichever it is, that wins the day, instead of estab-lishing a constitution based on the common interest and the principle of equal-ity, exacts as the prize of victory a greater share in the constitution.”
Aristotle, who wrote in the mid-three hundreds B.C., had a deep under-standing of what worked and what didn’t in govern-ment. There is much to learn from his thought that applies to us today. To focus
only on criticism of his writings misses the oppor-tunity to glean the good and insightful.
There are deep lessons to learn from the study of the Ancients. These pro-vide a caution to our mod-ern culture’s tendency to tear down and destroy – to deconstruct – without also spending the time to recon-struct new frameworks of thought that provide insight for our people and our government.
Think about this cultural tendency to deconstruct when you read the news, or deal with your boss, your spouse or your children and learn instead the wis-dom of history. We learn more from positive exam-ples than from the constant emphasis on what is wrong.

Free to live with joy, justiceBy Lynell CaudilloCalvary Presbyterian Church
After selling his pickup truck, 22-year-old Westley C. French decid-ed he wanted it back. So Westley and a few friends mugged the new truck owner, beating him with a 2x4. Then Westley and his friends fled the scene in their getaway car – a green Nissan 240 SX.
The muggers thought they had a foolproof plan to avoid police; they covered the green Nissan with a fresh coat of black spray paint. By changing their car’s color they were able to out-run the Washington state police for five hours. Unfortunately, as Westley and his buddies took off, they never bothered to change the North Dakota license plates. The police easily spot-ted their getaway car, apprehended them, and Westley was sentenced to one year in jail.
According to one news story, “Now he might be making license plates.”
Truth is stranger than fiction; this story was originally reported in the Bellingham Herald, Oct. 9, 2013. While this story is a little on the wild side, the truth is that we often think we can put up a good front and fool everyone. By changing the exterior paint job, these fellows thought they had solved their problem. But their problem went far deeper than the surface. Their problem was one that required a major change in attitude and action – a transformation, if you will.
It is one thing to make changes in the veneer – the exterior – or in the way we present ourselves to the world. It is quite another to experi-ence real change or transformation in our hearts, that affects our attitudes and actions. What we really need is an “inside job.”
Jesus says: “A good person brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart and an evil one brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his
heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of” (Matthew 6:45).
Each of us is born with a “heart condition” – a propensity to sin. The remedy is allowing the love of God to be “…poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly…. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:5,6,8).
God’s love can transform us from the inside out! Our hearts will be transformed and with the help of the Holy Spirit, our “insides” and our “outsides” grow to reflect an integ-rity of heart, attitude and action that makes sense. No longer ruled by self-centeredness, but by love for God and our fellow human beings, we are free to live with joy and justice in our rela-tionships with one another. Thanks be to God!

One New Year’s Day, 1/1/1953, Brian Van Auken Reitz was born. He grew up on the East Coast and spent most of his childhood in Virginia. Brian made his way West at the age of 21, landing in the small town of Enumclaw, Washington. This is where he met his future wife, Nancy, whom he married in May of 1978. Brian had a long career in the custodial department at Rainier School in Buck-ley, where he served as Local Union President for many years. Brian is survived by his wife, Nancy and a daughter, Siobhan. He was af-fectionately known as Boppie to his three granddaughters, Katie, Delainey and Addelynn. Brian’s love of family was extended to many of Siobhan’s friends and their children who also called Brian, Dad & Boppie. Brian is also survived by a brother, Walter (Barbara) Reitz and their sons, who reside in Maine, his two brothers-in-law, Michael (Lola) Bowler of Buckley and Lloyd (Janet) Bowler of Oregon and their families. Brian leaves behind many nieces and nephews who will miss him dearly. Those of us who had the priviledge of knowing Brian will greatly miss his sense of humor, his willingness to help others and his love of high volume mu-sic playing out his car windows, be it Opera or Elvis, it had to be loud. He is preceded in death by his parents, Walter and Imelda Reitz and his father and mother-in-law, Lloyd and Vanitta Bowler, Brian fought a courageous battle with cancer lasting almost two years when the doctor gave him 3-6 months. He lost his fight on July 30th, 2015 and will be forever missed.

Meeting the physical and mental challenges his sport brings, Caleb Wakefield finds himself competing at the highest level in a sport that remains on the periph-ery of a sports-obsessed American society.
The Enumclaw 18 year old is an inline skater, traveling the globe to bat-tle the world’s best in a sport that appears long on organization but short on funding its individual ath-letes. That’s the case in the United States, at least.
In the beginning, Wakefield was an 8 year old pulling on a pair of inline skates for the first time. As part of a natural, athletic evolution, he began separating himself from his peers. The division is more mental than physical, he says, emphasizing the importance of overcoming the challenges stirring just
beneath a protective hel-met.
Competing as part of the Speed Team at Auburn Skate Connection – which he still represents – Wakefield moved up the ranks through competi-tions both local and then regional. Successes in the Pacific Northwest level took him to the national stage and competitions
in such outposts as Fort Wayne, Ind., Lincoln, Neb., and Albuquerque, N.M.
A companion along the way has been his brother, Colin, now 25, who made many of the same trips. As they improved, the travel time became great-er. Both have rolled their way through competitions in Germany and France, along with top-level com-
petitions in the U.S. Both were at the U.S. nationals in June, looking for a spot on the country’s World Team.
Caleb was one of the six selected for the Junior Men squad on Team USA while Colin, competing in the adult ranks, just missed the cut.

al team, Wakefield head-ed to Belgium for a major
international competition. He brought home third-place honors in the Junior A Division, having com-
peted against several dozen athletes from around the world.
Next up is a late-Sep-
tember trip to Colorado Springs, Colo., where mem-bers of Team USA will train for a week with coach
Renee Hildebrand.The Colorado trip is
part of a constant train-ing regimen for Wakefield,
all leading to the World Roller Speed Skating Championships, planned for Nov. 13-22 in Taiwan. Athletes from 50 nations will converge on the city of Kaohsiung, which is famil-iar in skate circles because it played host to the 2009 World Games.
Wakefield and his fellow American athletes do not share some of the benefits enjoyed by competitors from other countries. In some parts of the world, where inline skating is more popular, athletes are supported financially and are helped by the number of quality training facilities.
In the U.S., inline skaters are on their own financial-ly, often sponsoring fun-draising activities to help with travel costs.
At the Team USA level, there is a bit of coopera-tive assistance from the U.S. Olympic Committee. When in Colorado Springs, inline skaters use a USOC facility, but that’s the extent of the relationship.
The Wakefield broth-ers are hopeful that things could change. Those in charge of the Olympic Games will soon be addressing inline skating, deciding if the sport should be included in the every-four-years extravaganza. It has been considered before, without success, but vote totals have moved closer to acceptance.
Becoming a sanctioned Olympic sport would make a world of difference, pri-marily due to the funding that would follow the sport and its athletes.
SPEAKING OF FUNDING…
The nonprofit Auburn Speed Team is accepting donations to help Caleb Wakefield meet expenses associated with his upcom-ing trip to the world cham-pionships in Taiwan. He also will accept personal donations. Additionally, Wakefield is selling T-shirts sporting a graphic design reflecting the world cham-pionships. Anyone interest-ed in supporting Wakefield can email [email protected] or [email protected] or contact Auburn Skate Connection.

Be sure that your children understand the signi� cance of traf� c lights and know when they can cross a road without putting their lives in danger. Taking a walk with your children is a great way of making them more aware of, for example, how many traf� c lights there are in your neighborhood or in the downtown area. This can be an amusing way of getting children to understand that they should only cross the road at intersections and where there are traf� c lights or stop signs. All light signals are a good excuse to learn more about safety: the white lights at the rear of a vehicle indicate that it is revers-ing, � ashing lights on a school bus compel vehicles to stop, a pedestrian signal is a white light in the form of a man and pedestrians should never start crossing the road when the red hand is � ashing...

Dorn happy with test results, but wants changes
to graduation requirements
SEE TESTING, PAGE 14
The Sumner School District is conducting a survey soliciting feedback on public needs for infor-mation to better align com-munications as it relates to a future bond referendum.
The Sumner School District School Board is considering a bond pro-posal for the February 2016 election and projects have been identified by the Facilities Committee that address capacity needs and the quality of learning envi-ronments.
The Sumner School District is one of the fast-est growing districts in Pierce County. Over the next 10 years, the district is
anticipating an increase in enrollment of almost 2,000 students. The need to pro-vide additional classrooms for full time kindergarten and lower class sizes per state mandate has most ele-mentary schools at capacity. To prepare for the district’s growth a bond package is being developed that would provide needed new facili-ties and modernization of current facilities that are eligible for state matching funds. The current bond proposal is estimated at $145 million.
Bond projects as iden-tified by the Facilities Advisory Committee that address capacity needs and
quality of learning environ-ments:
• New elementary school in the south region of the district
• Early Learning Center in Sumner
• Emerald Hills
Elementary replacement• Sumner High School
renovation and expansion• Bonney Lake High
School enhancements• Mountain View Middle
School addition• Safety and security
upgrades at multiple schools• Field improvementsTo participate in the sur-
vey and learn more about the district’s capital facil-ity needs, visit the Sumner School District Website at www.sumnersd.org.
grades and high school have been taking state tests, as required by state and federal law, since 2006. They help identify learning gaps and are used to determine school and district Adequate Yearly Progress. Washington’s high school students are also required to pass certain tests,
or state-approved alterna-tives, to be eligible for gradu-ation.
This is the first year stu-dents took the Smarter Balanced tests. “They are the most advanced that students have ever taken,” said Randy Dorn, the state’s superinten-dent of public instruction. “They measure students’ progress on the learning standards, so teachers know
where students are succeed-ing and where they need extra help.”
Dorn said he was pleased with the first-year results. “Statewide results beat our predictions,” he said. “That says to me that students are capable of learning our new standards, which are designed to make sure stu-dents are ready for career and college.
Dorn added that some changes are needed. “I believe in the testing system,” he said. “But I don’t think it’s perfect, especially with how it’s used for high school graduation. The Smarter Balanced tests were designed to be an evaluation tool, not a graduation requirement. We still need legislation to focus the use of the 11th-grade tests on proper class placement in 12th grade, rather than as a graduation hurdle.”
On average, a little more than one out of every two students in grades 3-8 are on track to be ready for career and college in English lan-guage arts. In math, the number is, on average, slight-ly less than one out of every two students.
This year’s scores show students’ understanding of new, more rigorous learning
standards, on new, more rig-orous tests. They represent a new baseline and should not be compared to last year’s MSP.
It would be fairer to com-pare first-year Smarter Balanced results to first-year Washington Assessment of Student Learning results and to the results from the 2014 Smarter Balanced field test, Dorn said.
An example is fourth-grade math. Fourth graders first took the WASL in 1997; that year, 21.4 percent were considered proficient on the state’s learning standards in math. During the Smarter Balanced field test taken in 2014, 37.0 percent of fourth graders were proficient. By comparison, 54 percent of fourth graders were profi-cient in math on the first-year Smarter Balanced math test.
Assessments as Graduation Requirements
During the 2015 legislative session, Dorn introduced a bill that would have allowed students who don’t meet the CCR standard on the 11th-grade Smarter Balanced tests to graduate after taking class-es during their senior year designed to help them in the areas where they need it.
“The new standards are more rigorous than the old ones, and the new test was not designed as an exit exam,” he said. “We need a better, smarter alternative for students’ senior year, rather than the current collection of evidence system.
“The Smarter Balanced tests are important, and will continue to be, even if they
aren’t used as a graduation requirement. Students who do well on the tests won’t have to take remedial classes in college, which cost money but don’t earn credits toward a degree. Students who don’t meet the CCR standard have another year to improve their learning. OSPI and the State Board for Community and Technical Colleges have designed courses specifically to help those students.”

Kid Safety: Back to SchoolBy Tony Truax, State Farm© agent
It won’t be long before school starts again. Kids will be out in greater numbers on the streets and sidewalks. As parents, we want our children to enjoy their years in school and return safely home each afternoon. Whether your child is riding a bike, walking or taking a bus, there are a few simple safety rules you should discuss before school starts.
• Riding a bike or walking will give your child a chance to get some exercise during the day. But children face possible dangers walking or biking. Children between the ages of 5 and 9 have probably not developed the skills and experience to navigate traffic safely and judge speed and distance. Before school starts, practice safe pedestrian skills with your child and provide adult supervision to and from school if possible.
Tell your child to: • Mind all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard. • Never cross the street against a light, even if there’s not traffic coming. • Walk your bike through intersections. • Ride or walk with a buddy. • Wear reflective material to be more visible to street traffic. Taking the bus is a safe mode of transportation. However, according to the National Safety Council, about 9,000 children are injured each year in incidents involving school buses. Surprisingly, these injuries occur as children enter and exit the bus. Review these safety tips with your child: • Have a safe place to wait for the bus, away from traffic and the street. • Stay away from the bus until it comes to a complete stop and the driver signals you to enter. • When being dropped off, exit the bus and walk several giant steps away from the bus. Keep a safe distance between you and the bus. Also, remember that the bus driver can see
you best when you are away from the bus. • Use the handrail to enter and exit the bus. • Stay away from the bus until the driver gives you a signal that it’s okay to approach. • Be aware of the street traffic around you. Drivers are required to follow certain rules of the road concerning school buses but not all do. If you’re driving in a school area or along bus routes, be sure to watch out for the children on the streets and side-walks. Slow down in school areas. Stop at crosswalks and intersections when children are present. Obey all laws regard-ing school buses. Whether you have a child in school or not, help make sure all school children arrive at school and home safely.

Keep kids safe when packing school lunchThe new school year likely means back
to packing lunches and after-school snacks for students, scouts, athletes, dancers, and all the other children who carry these items to and from home. One ‘back’ you do not want to reacquaint children with, however, is foodborne bacteria.
Bacteria that cause foodborne illness, commonly known as food poisoning, grow rapidly at temperatures between 40 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. In this temperature range, these microorganisms can multi-ply to dangerous levels in just two hours, increasing the risk of foodborne illness. To make sure lunches and snacks are safe for those for whom you pack, you should follow the USDA’s four steps to food safety: Clean, Separate, Cook, and Chill.
Packing TipsIf the lunch/snack contains perishable
food items like luncheon meats, eggs, cheese, or yogurt, make sure to pack it with at least two cold sources. Harmful bacteria multiply rapidly, so perishable food trans-ported without an ice source will not stay safe long.
Frozen juice boxes or water can also be used as freezer packs. Freeze these items overnight and use with at least one other freezer pack. By lunchtime, the liquid should be thawed and ready to drink.
Pack lunches containing perishable food in an insulated lunchbox or soft-sided lunch bag. Perishable food can be unsafe to eat by lunchtime if packed in a paper bag.
If packing a hot lunch, like soup, chili or stew, use an insulated container to keep it hot. Fill the container with boiling water, let stand for a few minutes, empty, and then put in the piping hot food. Tell children to keep the insulated container closed until
lunchtime to keep the food hot at 140 °F or above.
If packing a child’s lunch the night before, parents should leave it in the refrig-erator overnight. The meal will stay cold longer because everything will be refrig-erator temperature when it is placed in the lunchbox.
If you’re responsible for packing snacks for the team, troop, or group, keep perish-able foods in a cooler with ice or cold packs until snack time. Pack snacks in individual bags or containers, rather than having chil-dren share food from one serving dish.
Storage TipsIf possible, a child’s lunch should be
stored in a refrigerator or cooler with ice upon arrival. Leave the lid of the lunchbox or bag open in the fridge so that cold air can better circulate and keep the food cold.
Eating and Disposal Tips
Pack disposable wipes for washing hands before and after eating.
After lunch, discard all leftover food, used food packaging, and paper bags. Do not reuse packaging because it could con-taminate other food and cause foodborne illness.
Consumers can learn more about key food safety practices at Foodsafety.gov, by ‘following’ @USDAFoodSafety on Twitter, and by ‘liking’ Facebook.com/FoodSafety.gov. Consumers with questions about food safety, can call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) or chat live with a food safety special-ist at AskKaren.gov, available from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, in English or Spanish.

2015 FORD
F-150 with ALUMINUM ALLOY
The � rst 2015 Ford F-150 rolled o� the assembly line and it is no normal truck. The new F-150 pickup is the first with an aluminum body, making it hundreds of pounds lighter than its predecessors. Class-exclusive, military grade ,aluminum-alloy body. This is the same 5,000/6,000-series high-strength grade of aluminum that’s used in industries such as aerospace, commercial transportation and energy. The new Ford F-150 is lighter by up to 700 pounds. The results: more hauling and towing capability.
The classic Mustang Fastback has returned. And
with an entirely new energy. The aerodynamics
have been improved. The new body is wider and
sits lower than the previous model. There are sharp,
new signature HID headlamps standard and standard
signature LED tri-bar taillamps with sequential turn
signals. Dual exhaust pipes are standard on all
models, and air extractor hood vents are standard
on GT models. In� nite customizing options available!

None of us want to think about dealing with a pet in serious distress due to a medical emergency, but being prepared will ease your mind and might just save your pet’s life!
In part one of this two-part series, we’ll cover basic sup-plies and resources for handling a pet emergency; in part two, we’ll look at specific techniques that can save your pet.
For basic understanding of pet first aid you can start by enrolling in a pet first aid course. There are several classes available in the area, as well as online options. Classes vary widely in content and quality. Make sure to check the course objectives and reviews before you enroll.
The Red Cross has an app for pet first aid, as well as Pet Tech. These apps teach CPR and first aid techniques and are a helpful tool whether you’ve had pet first aid train-ing or not. The simple, step-by-step instructions for cats and dogs are great to review anytime you have a few spare minutes; also, they provide structure in the high-stress moments of an actual emergency.
Accidental poisoning is a leading cause of emergen-cies. Animal Poison Control has a call center and is available 24 hours a day. If you think your pet has ingested something toxic, try to locate the label and call Poison Control. Be advised they may charge a fee for the consultation.
Often, emergencies occur outside the business hours of your regular vet. If you find yourself needing urgent care, it is helpful to know what your options are in advance of an emergency. Sumner Animal Hospital is the closest 24-hour emergency vet for most Enumclaw, Buckley and Bonney Lake residents, followed by Summit Hospital in Tacoma and Access in Renton.
It is important to have some basic first aid supplies for pets, many of which are duplicates of your human first aid kit, like saline eye wash, nonstick bandages, etc. Make sure any combined kit includes pet-specific first aid cream and wound wash, and rolled gauze for wrapping as well as for creating a muzzle for scared and combative patients. Also, the pet thermometer should be clearly labeled “pet.” Ready-made pet first aid kits are available online and at pet supply stores.
Pain and fear can make even the sweetest of pets bite, so handling an injured or frightened animal requires special precautions for everyone’s safety. Keep your face away from the pet’s mouth and make sure the pet is contained or on a leash, as scared pets may try to flee. If you think your pet may have a fracture, try to support the area with towels or pillow while in route to the vet. If possible, call the vet so they can prepare for your arrival.
Administering first aid to an ill or injured pet is just the first step in handling an emergency. Prompt veterinary
care following first aid gives your pet the best chance of a full recovery.

Plan for your pet’s medical emergencies
Bunnies cute, need plenty of care
Whether running around your yard or in an enclosure at the pet store, bunnies can be cute. Don’t let their outward appearance fool you, how-ever. Bunnies can be very destructive animals, digging into and chewing on everything in sight—carpet, furni-ture, woodwork, even electrical cords. Fortunately, there are some things you can do to curb the behavior.
It doesn’t matter where they are. Outside or inside, bunnies, by nature, will burrow, dig and chew. Their teeth and claws are forever growing, and in order to keep them healthy, sharp and
trimmed, they must burrow, dig and chew. It is essential that you provide items for your bunny to burrow into, dig into and chew on. There are a wide variety of products available. Check into them. Having a continu-ous supply of Timothy hay to munch on, toys to play with and untreated grass mats to dig into will do wonders for keeping your pet bunny busy and away from your household posses-sions. You can also make your own toys using stuff around the house and yard. Old cardboard boxes make great places to burrow into, while old apple tree branches make great chew toys. Keep in mind that the wider selection of toys you provide for your bunny, the more likely its urge to burrow, dig
and chew will be satisfied.Even with a great selection of
playthings, your bunny may still be tempted. That stack of shoes at the foot of your bed and that lovely card-board castle in your daughter’s room may call out to them. Curb the temp-tation by keeping everything impor-tant out of your bunny’s reach. File all paperwork, tuck away electrical cords and set up gates and pens. Don’t just let your bunny have the run of the house. They will get into places you never thought possible and destroy your most precious of possessions. Block off access to certain rooms and furniture or contain your bunny in
Just a few steps can curb a pet’s poor behavior

Officers were alerted to a road rage incident involving a weap-on being shown on Aug. 11. The reporting party, who was involved in the incident, told offi-cers another car was following too close for comfort for him.

The subject resisted arrest but was secured in the back of a patrol car. Officers also found an illegal substance in the subject’s belongings. The sub-ject was transported to the Pierce County Jail.

a pen. Bunny-proofing is essential, as is training.
You may know the differ-ence between good and bad behavior, but your bunny
doesn’t. Again, bunnies by nature like to burrow, dig and chew. They don’t know they shouldn’t bur-row into your tennis shoes or chew on the laces unless you teach them. Should you find your bunny gnawing on something it shouldn’t, tell it no, clap your hands and give it a chew toy. When you find it using its chew toys, reward it with a treat, praise or affection. Training is imperative for stopping bad habits before they begin.
Finally, consider hav-ing your bunny spayed or neutered. Not only will this prevent baby bunnies, but it will make your bunny less prone to chewing, dig-ging and other destructive behaviors.
Having a pet bunny can be a test in patience at first, but with time and train-ing, you can teach your bunny acceptable behav-ior and keep your home intact. Give it a go, and your bunny is sure to act as cute as it looks.

What will this bond do for the schools in our district?
Every school will receive improvements to its intercom, communication and phone systems and key access control systems linked to technology, which will increase safety and security across the district. All elementary schools will receive playground equipment and playfield upgrades. In addition, technology improvements are on the list for all schools. Most of our schools are in need of roofing, HVAC, and other interior and exterior renovations and these items will be addressed with this bond.
Glacier Middle School seems to be the big-ticket item. What is proposed for that site?As you know, the old high school has been serving as Glacier Middle School and the building is not well-suited for a 21st century middle school program. If nothing is done, within five years, it is projected that there will be 150 students more than the school can accommodate. Currently more than 40% of the classrooms at Glacier Middle School are in portables. Many of the school’s building systems including plumbing, electrical and heating systems are approaching the end of their useful life.
Education and student learning needs have changed since 1957 when the gymnasium and shop were built on campus. The original classrooms were finished in 1962 and renovated in the 1980s. The bond would include additional classroom space and renovation to the entire school.
We also want to honor the history of Sheets Field. There will be upgrades to the field, track surface and stands. There will also be work to resolve the drainage issues.
Dear White River Community,It’s hard to believe it’s been 15 years since our community said “yes”
to a bond that built White River High School. In 2016, we’ll be paying off the bond!
Since the new high school was built, we’ve seen tremendous re-sults at White River High School. It’s no coincidence; it’s intentional, methodic, purposeful planning. The community has watched the
transformation of White River High School and we couldn’t be more proud of the many impressive accomplishments that have helped WRHS become a statewide model of success. THANK YOU to our community for supporting us every step of the way!
We continue to work hard to ensure our students have the best possible environ-ment in which to learn and thrive. About a year ago, the White River School District convened a group of community residents and staff to engage in a long-range facilities plan that would address the short and long-term needs of the White River School Dis-trict. Through a collaborative process, the group reviewed the safety and security of our buildings, enrollment and capacity numbers, the physical condition of our schools and assessed how our facilities served today’s student learning needs.
After months of research, data review and discussion, the committee put together a list of the most pressing projects and presented them to the White River School Board, along with a recommendation to address the deficiencies by placing a $98.8 million bond measure on the February 2016 ballot. With the cost of White River High School paid off, this is designed to keep your tax rate and bill about the same as it has been.
Please take a moment to review this detailed information. My door is always open and I welcome the opportunity to talk with you more about the bond. I appreciate the many conversations that provide input and direction as we make important decisions for our kids.
Sincerely,Janel Keating, Superintendent
White River School District

White River Pride Runs Deep
Why not open Wickersham Elementary and White River Middle School?
Wickersham and White River Middle School were closed in 2009. The district has saved $1.3 million in operating costs annually by closing the two schools. Today, reopening Wickersham and White River Middle School would require almost $2 million in additional annual operation costs, which the district cannot support financially. That number reflects staffing with teachers, aides, administrator, custodial, food service, bus routes as well as the costs of heating, water, etc. It is more financially viable at this time to expand existing small elementary schools to approximately 500 student capacity than to reopen Wickersham or White River Middle School. Under the bond plan, we will use both buildings as temporary classroom space during the Elk Ridge and GMS construction phase.
Why renovate Elk Ridge Elementary?
Elk Ridge Elementary School was originally built in 1969 and is in need of full renovation. The Elk Ridge site also has room to expand its building to allow for 200 more students. Doing both at the same time saves money and accommodates future growth. Proposed housing developments within the City of Buckley will impact Elk Ridge Elementary capacity in the near future. Elk Ridge houses our elementary special education programs for students with significant disabilities, a growing population with specific learning and classroom space requirements.
What is proposed for Wilkeson?
Wilkeson is a wonderful building and we appreciate its historical significance in our community. As a historical site, construction at Wilkeson Elementary School requires us to follow different rules, especially when dealing with the main, sandstone structure that was erected in 1900. The “other” buildings were built in 1980. The proposal is to renovate the interior of the main building, replace the multipurpose room and kitchen, convert portable classroom space into a permanent space and repair parts of the historical structure for continued use as an elementary school.
Why is constructing a high school stadium included?
In 2003, we didn’t have the funding to finish the stadium at White River High School. However, we did have the foresight to put some of the infrastructure in place for future construction of a stadium. Now is the time to complete the work that was started. The project includes covering the seating area, paving the remainder of the parking area past the tennis courts, adding restrooms, locker rooms and athletic storage.
Will improving safety and security be part of this bond?
Yes. The bond will provide a comprehensive assessment of physical safety and security in our schools. This could include improvements to building access controls and communication systems so all buildings can communicate efficiently and effectively, which is critical to response time in an emergency.
What extra-curricular offerings will the bond support?
• Field improvements related to the Community Activities Program (CAP), a program of the WRSD. User fees keep the program running, but the fields are in need of improvements to keep them safe and easier to maintain. These fields are the school district’s responsibility and we take great pride in providing recreational opportunities for youth and adults in our community.
• Improvements to the Glacier Middle School campus auditorium will renovate the space so it continues to serve as a beautiful venue for showcasing student and community performances.
• Addition of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) classrooms at Glacier Middle School will create space for afterschool programs like robotics.
What’s the timeline on the project?
If our community approves the bond in February, 2016, all projects should be completed early 2020. Glacier Middle School, the largest bond project, will kick off in late 2016. As the Middle School project nears completion, the Elk Ridge Elementary project will get underway.
HOW CAN I LEARN MORE? Look for more infomation to come in the next few months, or contact the district with your questions.
