Covington/Maple Valley Reporter, January 15, 2016

The new Tahoma High School is well underway and a new elementary school is set to break ground this sum-mer. With the addition of a larger high school and an elementary school, the question from many parents is how the students will be distributed among the schools.

A Boundary Review Committee was formed at a Tahoma School Board meeting in 2015. There were 22 parents selected at random to be part of the committee. About 168 parents were interested in being part of the committee. There were 15 selected with seven others chosen as alternates. Along with the parents are eight

facilitators, all part of the Tahoma School District, and Superintendent Rob Morrow.

Among the issues to be considered include the Wash-ington Class Size Reduction measure, what the district will do with the portables it has now and bus routes. Another issue to consider is most of the elementary schools are located in the north end of the school dis-trict, while most of the population is in the south end.

It appears most of the elementary classes will need to be decreased by 10 students or more because of the class size reduction measure, which means adding more classrooms. The school district will be keeping a little more than half of the portables. The district has about 70 portables but 40 will be destroyed because they are too old and run down to keep. There are 10 portables in good condition that will be used right away, while the other 20 need to be remolded or updated to be used, which is in the district budget.

Currently there are more elementary schools located where fewer families live, which will be an

issue when deciding the school that the students will attend.

This also brings up the bus route issue. The district does not want students to sit on a bus for a long pe-riod of time getting to and from a school. Test runs on bus routes are planned to see how long it will take to transport students.

Another factor the committee is focusing on is keeping communities together. The members hope to avoid sending half of a neighborhood to one school while the other goes to another.

There are 3,800 elementary school students who need to be distributed between six schools. If they each get the same number of students, about 634 students will be at each school, which works out well with the smaller classes sizes. But, more students might need to go to a certain schools because of loca-tion.

One misconception board members have heard

Sean P. Kelly is no stranger to the Maple Valley community. As a life-long resident, he has worked at the Tahoma School Dis-trict for 11 years and is entering his fi ft h year as a City Council member and fi rst as mayor of Maple Valley.

“I was very honored that the council trusted me and has faith in me to be the leader of the city,” Kelly said.

Kelly wanted to become mayor to

enhance the city of Maple Valley as best he could. His main concerns are working on traffi c on state Route 169, economic development throughout the city while maintaining and improving the quality of life in Maple Valley.

Aft er serving his fi rst two years on the council, Kelly was selected to serve as the deputy mayor. Now entering his second term as a councilman, Kelly knows the changes he hopes to make as mayor. Above anything else, his No. 1 goal is to

be as transparent and as avail-able as possible to community members and community part-ners, he said.

“It is important to hear from the community what their opin-ion is,” Kelly said. “We already have great communication with the citizens and I want to keep it going and make it better.”

He wants to keep in constant contact and be more interactive with community partnerships so citizens know exactly what is go-ing on at all times, and in detail. Th is way, the City Council can let community members know what is happening if they have any ques-tions or concerns, he said.

One thing Kelly is very excited about is the running a bond for parks in Maple Valley. He is confi -dent it will pass, which will pay for more ballfi elds.

Kelly said he looks forward to building on all that is best in the community.

Councilman Dana Parnello was selected as deputy mayor.

Th e city’s form of government is council-manager, which means the mayor is one of the elected members of the City Council and is selected by the council. Th e city manager is hired by the City Coun-

cil to oversee the daily administration of the city.

“I was very honored that the council trusted me and has faith in me to be the leader of the city.” Sean P. Kelly

Two bills have been proposed in the Washington State Senate that would amend state law to allow charter schools, including Excel Public Char-ter in Kent, to continue to operate.

In September, the state Supreme Court ruled charter schools, which were approved by voters in 2012, un-constitutional and ineligible for state funding. On Nov. 19, the court denied motions by state Attorney General Bob Ferguson and the Washington State Charter Schools Association to reconsider the ruling.

State Sens. Andy Billig, D-Spokane, and Michael Baumgartner, R-Spo-

kane, are co-sponsoring a bill that would put charters schools under the authority of local school districts instead of being governed solely by an appointed school board.

A second proposal, introduced by Sens. Steve Litzow, R-Mercer Island; Joe Fain, R-Auburn; Mark Mullet, D-Issaquah and Steve Hobbs, D-Lake Stevens, would direct charter school funding to come from the state’s Op-portunity Pathways Account, which contains state lottery revenues not restricted to common schools.

Adel Sefrioui, Excel’s executive di-rector and founder, said he is pleased to see two bipartisan bills addressing the situation.

“People care about this and want to fi x this issue,” he said.

Excel opened in August serving sixth- and seventh-grade students with hopes of expanding to grades 6-12.

Sefrioui, and Act Now for Wash-ington Students, a parent-led coali-tion working to keep charters schools open, favor the second proposal.

Sefrioui said that bill is more in line with what was approved by voters in 2012 and calls for the restoration of the Washington State Charter Schools Association, which can authorize the creation of charter schools.

Billig and Baumgartner’s proposal could limit accessibility to charter schools to districts agree to be charter authorizers, Sefrioui said.

Th e Kent School Dis-trict’s 10th annual Technol-ogy Expo, set for 6-8:30 p.m. Th ursday, Jan. 21, at the ShoWare Center in Kent, will demonstrate how students and teachers use technology in the class-rooms.

Admission is free and open to the public.

Th e theme for this year’s

expo is Modern Learn-ers Ready for College and Careers and will feature 104 student booths, represent-ing each school in the district, as well as booths from 20 business sponsors and six nonprofi t partners, Hugh Faulkner, the dis-trict’s project manager for Expo, said in an email.

“Each year sees new ways that technology is being used and taught in class-rooms, and each year the students use technology to

create some amazing work,” Faulkner said.

Highlights of this year’s expo include:

• discovering how Perfor-mance Audio uses today’s technology to focus on sound design, musicality, and leadership

• building and program-ing a robot using Lego Mindstorms robots

• exploring how high school students use com-puter-aided design soft ware and computer-aided manu-

facturing practices• watching students

transform a narrative story into an interactive children’s book

Th e district will provide free shuttles every 20 min-utes from 6-9 p.m. between all district high schools and the ShoWare Center.

“Parking and traffi c can sometimes be an issue at ShoWare, so we’re hopeful that this will make it easier for members of the com-munity get to and from the

event,” Faulkner said.Th e Tech Expo is the

largest event the district hosts. Last year, the expo drew a record-setting crowd of 8,737 people, including educators from more than 120 countries participat-ing in the Global Educator Exchange at Microsoft ’s headquarters in Redmond and school board members taking part in the National School Board Association’s eduction technology site visits.

from some parents is that it’s not just the stu-dents moving to a new school, but also the staff. Some parents have voiced concern the teachers or other staff being moved. However, even if a child stays at a school, the staff may not.

The district wants an even distribution of teachers at each school, Morrow said. They want to distribute the teach-ers in a fair way, they do not want all first-year teachers in one school while other schools have the most experienced teachers.

The district is expect-ing as much as 70 to 80 percent of the students may be moving to new schools. All of the high school and middle school students will move, and many of the elementary school student.

The district has had boundary reconfigura-tions before, but not as large as this one.

The district officials hope the decisions will be final and there will be no need to make changes

or adjustments in the foreseeable future.

There could be changes if homes were built in a certain location and more families moved into the community. The officials do not see that happening any time in the near future.

If parents really does not want their child to move schools, they can sign a waiver. There will be criteria that will have to be met, but the specif-ics on what those are have yet to be decided.

The committee wants to make decisions by the fall of 2016, which will give parents a full year to prepare for the move and any changes that need to be made.

The committee has numerous decisions to make in the next nine months with the help of parents, teachers, prin-ciples and other school board members.

The committee will be seeking ideas from the community through-out the process. The members want parents to voice their concerns about moving schools or anything else related to the new schools.

State senators propose solutions to keep charter schools openBY HEIDI SANDERS

[ more CHARTER page 3 ]

Just a couple weeks ago I talked about how I like my stuff arranged in certain configurations; kitchen items, towels, community-use types of things. I often struggle to get my family to comply, but with five of us living here, my ef-forts are usually met with a lackadaisi-cal attitude.

After awhile I stop nagging. It takes more energy to make them comply then to either leave it in its sloppy ap-pearance or move it myself. After all, we’re just going to use it again.

But I think my family needs an intervention.Right before my youngest daughter’s best

friend moved in to finish her senior year, I had reorganized and purged my kitchen cupboards. I love collecting ceramic ware and much of it is displayed in the kitchen’s garden window that looks out over my backyard. One of my favor-ite domestic activities is to wash pots and pans while I observe my unique collection and the birds that gather in my yard hunting worms.

When my daughter’s friend moved in with us, she brought a cute little teapot with matching cups (we gave them to her for her 18th birthday). I adjusted, because it’s just a teapot and I’m not going to be blamed for not being flexible. How-

ever, I soon noticed a couple more mugs I didn’t recognize.

After that the flood began. Part of it was my fault because I saw a really cute character cup at a store in Long Beach and texted my youngest daughter about it. She wanted it, but because I offered to buy her a mug, I also had to offer to buy the other two girls one.

Our new daughter wanted a clunky Sponge Bob mug, my oldest

said, “I don’t use mugs. I don’t need one.” By that time my youngest had changed her mind to a smaller Doctor Who mug, which I’m forever grateful, because the one I initially showed her was rather cumbersome.

I guess I opened some sort of mug portal, as now we seem to be inundated with mugs. Every time I turn around, there’s a new mug.

The once organized, pleasant, garden window has become a jumbled array of colors, shapes and sizes. Every child has gotten a new mug or two from a friend for Christmas. Even my oldest, the one who claimed she didn’t use such devices, got one in the shape of an owl and she loves it.

I’m not sure what to do to get my Zen view back. I find myself counting the days until the

younger two graduate from high school and maybe go off to college. I’m pushing a little harder at my older daughter to get a job that pays enough for her school loans, car payment and rent on an apartment. So what if it’s a dive. Would she have access to electricity to plug in a quick-boiling pot? That would be my only requirement.

The younger two have changed their minds about going off to a four-year college right away, so I’m thinking they should start paying rent, get themselves a hot plate and turn their large room into an apartment. Then they could take their mugs with them; even if it is only to the other end of the house. At least I wouldn’t have to look at them anymore.

I’m thinking of purging some of my older ce-ramic ware I don’t use often, just to make more space. But why must I be the one to sacrifice? They could use their mugs as pen holders or use-ful pots kept in their own rooms, away from the sanctity of my garden window.

We definitely need a mug intervention.Gretchen Leigh is a stay-at-home mom who

DANGEROUS SUPPLEMENTS Just because a health supplement claims that all

kinds of remarkable results are possible, that does not mean that the claims are true. Since the ingredients in supplements are not regulated as strongly as those that are in prescription medications, sometimes unhealthy or potentially dangerous or deadly ingredients can make their way out into the hands of the unsuspecting public. Some of the worst culprits for dangerous ingredients are energy or weight loss supplements. In fact, adverse symptoms to supposed health supplements send a large number of people to the emergency room each year. Before embarking on any health improvement plan, be sure to speak with your healthcare provider in order to make the healthiest choices possible.

Unlike drugs, supplements are not intended to treat, diagnose, or prevent diseases. Supplements should not make claims, such as “reduces arthritic pain” or “treats heart disease.” Claims like these can only legitimately be made for drugs, not dietary supplements.

The Tahoma High School We the People team has once again earned first place in Washington state and the honor of rep-resenting Tahoma against schools from across the country.On Jan. 9, the team competed at the state capitol in Olympia. The national contest will take place in Washington D.C. at the end of April.Each year’s We the People class is divided

into six groups based on the six units of the We the People: The Citizen & the Constitution high school textbook. Each hearing begins with an opening presen-tation by students from one of the six unit groups. The opening presentation is followed by a period of questioning dur-ing which judges probe students’ depth of knowledge, understanding and their ability to apply constitutional principles.

Tahoma High School’s Weople’swins first place

“Only one district wants to be a district authorizer,” he said. “That was Spokane.”

Despite the uncertainty facing charter schools over the past couple of months, education at Excel has remained unhin-dered.

“Everything is operating in the same way from day one,” Sefrioui said. “The same staff, the same students, the same family members, the same education program.”

Since Dec. 14, when charter schools ceased to exist because of the Supreme Court’s ruling, Excel, along with several other charter schools across the state, has

been operating as an Alternative Learn-ing Experience though an agreement with Mary Walker School District in Springdale north of Spokane.

This is a temporary arrangement to allow charter schools to continue to serve student until a permanent solution is reached, Sefrioui said.

He said he is confident Excel will be open next school year.

“We have every indication that we are going to be open next year as a charter school or ALE,” he said. “That is still in the air until we hear back from Olympia this session. This is a powerful school. There is community support, and we are going to continue operation no matter what.”

I was at the Journal of San Juan Island newspaper offi ce

aft er Christmas and noticed one of the top 10 stories from 2015 was the discovery of a dinosaur bone on Sucia Island.

Th e Burke Museum, where the bone is currently lounging, noted in a release it is the left thigh bone from a theropod, a two legged, meat eating ruffi an like Tyrannosaurus rex. Otherwise this was no vegan hoofer.

Th e museum also pointed out the bone was about 80 million years old. I was all zippy to read that, fi nally the science guys found some-thing older than me.

Th e story did fi re a few synapses, which kind of hurt.

I imagined one day in a far off galaxy a scrubbed paleontologists with multiple ears will be examining a bag of twisted bones in his laboratory. Th e ears guy will likely have found the bones while visiting Earth and strolling on Loony Island. Aft er a bunch of months looking through itty-bitty reading glasses, the many ear-lobes guy will come out and authori-tatively tell a room of other guys with lots of ears, “Th ese are the bones of a newspaper editor.”

Beings with spiky-pink hair and horn-rims will look at each other and ask, “A what? Is it human?”

“Probably not,” the scientist with excellent posture will tell them. “Although we are not sure what he really was. It appears from his

thumb and forefi nger he was an incessant whiner with no hair.” (Th is planet has bad science).”

One of the spiky-pinks will ask, “What did he do for fun?”

“As far as we can tell nothing. He apparently drank large amounts of a buttermilk. No one is sure what the stuff is or why anyone would consume it. We theorize he used it to try to grow head hair. (Th ese scientists will also have crazy theorems that can’t be right, like our scientists spinning stories about evolution or global warming… hmmff f).

Mr. Ears continues, “Amazingly this but-termilk stuff apparently preserved this near humanoid for some 80 million years. Maybe

it was used to preserve him for the study of devolved goofb alls. We suspect he squinted at something a lot, maybe one of those things known as computer screens. Computers were very common at that time. Humans actually believed they worked. We are not sure why.

“We cannot really fi nd much use for this editor other than aggravating real humans. He apparently spent time observing political races, which we think may have caused his extinction, or he was run over by a iceberg.”

I think I will take a trip to Burke Museum and check out the dinosaur and spend some time wondering what the heck he was doing on Sucia Island. Probably looking for a snack, or a nice cool class of buttermilk.

Recently one of my courses at Green River College was dropped due to lack of enroll-ment. I wasn’t happy about it but there was nothing I could do. Th at left me with a choice: to mourn the loss, or to appreciate that I had enjoyed the benefi t for fi ve years. I chose to appreciate what I had.

We all make choices in life, over and over again. We have times when things go right and times when everything falls apart. Being human and having to live with a high level of uncer-tainty means we are constantly at risk of our lives turning negative.

Th is is especially true as our bodies age. What we took for granted no longer is possible. We didn’t appreciate our ability to hear others speak-ing or to see clearly until we had to ask people to repeat what they said, again, or had to wear glasses in order to see.

For two months this past year I had diffi culty

walking due to a bulging disk, which brought on sciatica – excruciating pain down my right leg. For two weeks I got around in a wheelchair.

Aft er getting some physical therapy and learn-ing some stretching exercises, I was able to shed my wheelchair. I walk normally again—mainly pain free. I appreciate the freedom it gives me.

I no longer take walking, something I deeply love to do, for granted. I never appreciated such a simple act until I was no longer able to do it. Now I do my stretching exercises twice a day because I don’t ever want to have a return of the pain of sciatica. It’s another of the list of rituals I have to do twice daily to compensate for physical issues that beset me.

We all have the same choices in dealing with negative things that happen to us. We can choose to get angry and frustrated and take things out on others, or we can accept the new normal and appreciate that we enjoyed our freedoms and privileges as long as we were able.

Th e key concept here is choice. Victor Frankl, a Jewish psychiatrist, was forced to live in a se-ries of Nazi concentration camps during World War II. Most of the freedoms he had taken for granted before the war were stripped from him. He was forced to act and live in ways that were downright evil and degrading.

Using his analytic psychiatric training taught Frankl to observe people’s attitudes in the camps, including his own. He found that those who survived the camps were not necessarily the

strongest or healthiest physically. Th e ones who survived were the ones who had a purpose for living. For some it was to kill every Nazi aft er the war. For others it was to be able to see one’s chil-dren or spouse again. Frankl’s reason for living was to rewrite the manuscript for the book he’d written before internment and seen destroyed by the Nazis. It sustained him for three years.

In other words, the ones who survived did so because they made a choice about how they were going to view their state. Th ey found meaning and happiness even in the most abominable circumstances. Th ey chose to live in spite of all the horror around them.

Victor Frankl survived to rewrite his manu-script. He also wrote a book called “Man’s Search For Meaning.” In this book he described his life in the camps. He came to the following conclu-sion: “Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human free-doms to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

Th is is the wisdom of Victor Frankl that all of us should consider. No one gets out of this life without suff ering. We oft en face issues and events over which we have little or no control. How we respond to those crises is wholly up to us. Choose a meaning for living. Choose your attitude. Th ose are the choices all of us are given even if everything else is stripped away.

Reading the bones of a fossilized editor

On Jan. 6 around 7:30 a.m. Madison Casey, 21, from Maple Valley was traveling southbound on state Route 169.

Her vehicle was struck head on by a pickup truck traveling northbound on the Maple Valley High-way.

The truck was driven by Jose Lopez, 52, from Seattle who lost control of his vehicle when it hit a patch of ice.

According to a news re-lease from the Washing-ton State Patrol “troopers and detectives responded and determined there was no impairment involved and the icy conditions were the main contribut-ing factor.”

He crossed over the center turn lane and collided with Casey’s vehicle.

She was transported to Harborview Medical Center in critical condi-tion.

Despite efforts at the hospital, she later died from her injuries on Jan. 7.

Lopez reportedly suf-fered minor injuries.

The WSP release stated the agency wanted, “to take this opportunity to

remind drivers of the potential treacherous driving conditions this time of year. It is impera-tive that drivers are aware of the road conditions and adjust their driv-ing accordingly. Slower speed, greater following distance and allow for more time to reach your destination.”

Have you ever thought of pre-planning your funeral?

...GOING GREEN

Th ere is growing excite-ment from home garden-ers and orchardists around the country about a bug. Yes, a bug. More specifi cal-ly, it is a bee. A mason bee. It is an important natural pollinator particularly in light of the worldwide problem of declining hon-

eybee populations.Why discuss a bee dur-

ing the dead of winter? First, it is time to plan for the spring activities of this hardworking insect. Sec-ond, we enthusiasts wish to help spread the word about this very benefi cial insect.

I fi rst became aware of

it nearly nine years ago when I noticed all these giant-looking fl ies that were swarming around the shake roof that covered some outbuild-ings. I quickly began to learn about them and that started my fascination with the mason bee.

Bee characteristicsIt is a solitary bee that

nests in holes in the ground, in trees, under shake roofs and in nesting holes created by humans. It rarely stings,

but can if its life is threatened; it is not aggressive and is a better pollinator than the honeybee. Six mason bees can eff ectively pollinate one apple tree that would require 360

honey bees.Adults begin to hatch

from their cocoons in mid-March in the Northwest when temperatures reach the mid-50s. Th e bees com-plete their life cycle in about six weeks. Th eir activities coincide with the bloom of most of our ornamental and

fruit-bearing trees.Th e bees require sources

of pollen and mud. Th ey deposit their eggs on a glob of pollen and seal off each one in a chamber with a mud plug. Lack of clayey-mud is one of the top reasons for poor success.

Bee attributesI believe the greatest

attribute is the good feeling we get from helping Mother Nature pollinate our fruit trees with very little time and eff ort. Th ey are also ter-rifi c for involving children in a gardening project and to learn about benefi cial insects.

Th e bees are simple for gardeners to “raise” by providing nesting materials. Th ese include specially-de-

signed nesting blocks with multiple holes, cardboard and paper tubes or home-made paper tubes.

I began by drilling holes in 4-inch by 4-inch inch fi r blocks. While these worked to attract the bees, they are not recommended be-cause over time they house various predators, diseases and fungi that feast on the larvae and slowly become death traps for the bees.

I have converted to the materials noted above. Th ey allow home gardeners to harvest the cocoons in the fall and clean out the pests. Th ey can then be safely stored in the refrigerator for the winter for release the following spring.

Meet Marianne Binetti at the Tacoma Home and Garden show the weekend of Jan-uary 28 – 31. Marianne will speak every day of the show at 1 p.m. Th ursday and Saturday on “Great Plant Partners” and Friday and Sunday on “Italian Inspiration for Low Water Gardens.” Some members of the audience will win tickets to the NWFG show.

Th e third week of January is time to adopt some new members of the family. Visiting home centers, nurseries and home shows this week means you’ll be meet-ing some living plants that can be taken home and nurtured either inside or outdoors. Adding more plants to your life has many of the same benefi ts as adding an animal – indoor plants have been proven to lower your heart rate, blood pres-sure and clean the air. Trying something new and educating yourself about a new plant variety is good for the brain. Some plants even have soft hair on their foliage so they can be

stroked or petted – no word yet on new plants that will come when they are called – but plants are easily house trained by slipping a saucer under the pot.PLANTS TO SUB FOR A PET:

If you’ve always wanted a poodle….adopt an orchid plant.

Poodles look classy and are intelligent dogs. Or-chids in bloom will add class to any interior and an orchid

plant is smart enough to lie low, go dormant and rest up until a new blooming cycle begins. You can fi nd orchid plants for sale at grocery stores and the easiest to grow for beginners are the Phalaenopsis or butterfl y orchids. Just like poodles, orchid come in standard, mini and now tiny teacup sizes.

Tip: Choose an orchid plant full of buds with just one or two open fl owers. Th is way you will enjoy months of fl owers. Bonus: A young orchid in the puppy stage will never chew your slippers.

If you’ve always wanted Labrador….adopt a hellebore.Sturdy, friendly and willing to please, the hellebore is a

winter fl owering perennial that you can fi nd for sale now at local nurseries and home center stores. Labs and hellebores both enjoy our wet weather and respond enthusiastically to any amount of attention they are given. New hellebore varieties make this slug, deer and drought resistant plant the antidote to spring fever and you can even enjoy your blooming hellebore indoors for a few weeks before setting it outside where it enjoys the cooler weather. Labs may like to dig, but hellebores like you to dig. Loosen the soil thoroughly making a planting hole at least three times as wide as the root ball of the potted hellebore. Th is encourages the thick roots to spread out.

Buying tip: Invest in a litter of hellebores so you can enjoy drift s of winter blooms under trees and rhododendrons. You can also use potted hellebores to fi ll empty containers now to

It’s time to add new additions to your garden, home

Canine infl uenza – or dog fl u – has been diag-nosed in dogs for several years. But a new strain of canine infl uenza called H3N2 has been found in more than 25 states since April.

In Chicago, this novel (or newly appeared) infl uenza virus sickened more than a thousand dogs during the fi rst outbreak in the United States. Now, Public Health – Seattle & King County veterinarian Beth Lipton thinks that we may have found cases here in King County. Public Health Insider talked to her to fi nd out more.

• What makes you sus-pect that this new strain of canine infl uenza virus is in King County?

During the month of December 2015, dogs at an area boarding and dog day care facility began getting sick with respira-tory symptoms, primarily cough. Th e facility owner estimates about 80-90 dogs got sick. Th e facility self-closed and imple-mented isolation proce-dures to help contain the outbreak. Recently labora-tory tests from two dogs that had contact with an ill dog who’d been at the facility were found to be positive for H3N2 canine infl uenza.

• Th e H3N8 strain of canine infl uenza has been in the U.S. since 2004. Why is this new H3N2 strain of particular concern?

While it’s been found in parts of Asia, canine infl uenza H3N2 is new to the United States. Since ca-nine infl uenza virus H3N2 is a novel virus, all dogs, regardless of breed or age, are at risk of infection when fi rst exposed. Th e virus is highly contagious and dogs get sick easily. In Chicago

last year, thousands of dog owners brought their dogs to the vet, overwhelming their offi ces. Because it’s so contagious, if board-ing facilities, shelters, and doggie day cares experi-ence an outbreak they may need to temporarily close, which would be highly disruptive.

• What are the signs and symptoms?

Symptoms include cough, runny nose, and/or fever. Sick dogs may be lethargic. Dogs can come down with the flu within 24 hours of ex-posure. Some dogs don’t show symptoms, but are able to infect other dogs for weeks. This strain of canine influenza isn’t particularly deadly, but can cause a secondary in-fection like pneumonia, which can kill dogs.

• How does it spread?Just like with human

flu, the virus can be spread by direct contact, contaminated objects such as hands, surfaces, clothing, etc., and through droplets in the air, which may travel up to 20 feet or more. Th e virus can live in the environment for about 2 days and on hands and on clothing for up to 24 hours. If the virus enters a kennel or other closed group, a high percent-age of the dogs become infected, and most will be symptomatic.

Once this virus gets a foothold in the com-munity, there is a risk of continued transmission, especially at places where dogs congregate such as dog parks/beaches, dog day care and boarding facilities, grooming facili-ties, and veterinary clinics. Dog owners whose dogs are coughing or showing other signs of respiratory

disease should not expose their dog to other dogs, and should contact their veterinarian. Early veteri-nary evaluation is crucial to identifying and stop-ping potential outbreaks.

• Does this strain of canine infl uenza infect humans or other animals?

No human infections with canine infl uenza

have ever been reported. In Asia, canine infl u-enza virus H3N2 has been reported to infect cats, although transmission to cats in the US has been extremely rare. Th ere is some evidence that guinea pigs and ferrets can be-come infected.

• What is Public Health’s Zoonotic Disease pro-

gram’s role in monitoring this disease?

Even though this is a disease that does not make people sick, our job is to make sure that the pet businesses we regu-late know the best ways to prevent an outbreak in their business and the community.

A citizen coalition has filed an initiative proposal to boost the state minimum

wage to $13.50 over four years, and expand paid sick leave.

A throng of supporters filed their “Raise Up Wash-ington” initiative at the Office of Secretary of State on Monday, just two hours before the Legislature con-vened. Backers will need 246,372 valid signatures of registered Washington voters by July 8 in order to qualify for the fall statewide ballot. The state Elections Division suggests bringing in at least 325,000 signa-tures, to cover duplicate and

invalid signatures.Backers will need 246,372

valid signatures of regis-tered Washington voters by July 8 in order to qualify for the fall statewide ballot. The state Elections Divi-sion suggests bringing in at least 325,000 signatures, to cover duplicate and invalid signatures.

The proposal would increase the current minimum wage of $9.47 an hour to $11 in 2017,

$11.50 in 2018, $12 in 2019 and $13.50 in 2020. It also would allow workers to accrue up to seven days of paid “sick and safe” leave per year for those who cur-rently do not get sick leave.

Jan. 8 was the first day for filing of citizen initiatives. Initiative activist Tim Ey-man and others submitted 24 proposals.

Monday the Elections Di-vision also began signature-verification check for Initia-

tive to the Legislature 732, dealing with carbon taxes. The measure’s sponsors brought in 363,126 signa-tures, enough to qualify for random sampling of about 11,000 signatures this week.

After that, petitions for I-735 will be checked. That measure would support a U.S. Constitutional Amend-ment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling.

In support of his declaration of a state of emergency for homelessness in King County, Executive Dow Constantine announced the opening of a new 50-bed homeless shelter inside the 420 Fourth Ave. building in Seattle and expansion of the shelter inside the King County Administration Building from 50 to 100 beds.

The additions triple the number of homeless shelter beds in county-owned buildings.

“Adding 100 shelter beds addresses immediate human needs and gets more people without homes off the street and out of the cold,” said Constantine in a

Dec. 24 county media release. “The new shelter will welcome pets – a critical ac-commodation for many who need to stay warm but understandably won’t abandon an animal companion.”

Proposals will be sought from non-profit service providers to expand exist-ing nighttime shelter beds outside Seattle, or to increase the number of nights a shelter is open. The requests for proposals will also seek provision of homeless day-center services in South King County.

The county opened the new shelter inside its vacant building along Fourth Avenue on Dec. 26. The space has been temporarily converted to shelter use with $92,000 appropriated by the King County Council to improve exits, install emer-gency lighting and smoke detectors, and do other needed work. The facility will shelter 50 men, including those with pets – a subset of the homeless population

that is frequently excluded from shelters that have a no-pet policy.

The city of Seattle is providing $15,000 to enable the shelter to open at 7 nightly rather than 8:30 p.m. - avoiding the need to wait outside in the cold that extra length of time.

The existing 50-bed shelter inside the King County Administration Building was expanded to 100 beds on Dec. 28. The city of Seattle is providing $225,000 to provide for additional oversight, staff-ing, security, and utilities.

Both shelters will remain open nightly through April 15. In both, the county is funding case management services to connect those in the shelters with hous-ing resources. The Salvation Army will operate both shelters, with funds provid-ed by King County and the city of Seattle.

“Winter is here and we must do as much as we can to help those living on

our streets have a safe place to sleep. Thanks to our ongoing partnership with King County, the city is able to help fund and stand up 100 additional emergency shelter beds in two county buildings for those with no other place to turn,” said Seattle Mayor Ed Murray. “These ad-ditional beds are temporary and more must be done to provide services and shelters throughout our region. This is a crisis that affects our entire county from Seattle to our suburban cities and it is important that all of our local part-ners take actions to address it.”

To fund shelter beds outside the city of Seattle and avoid focusing services in any one area, Constantine in Janu-ary will make available about $325,000, depending on available resources, in one-time funding to meet basic shelter needs in north, east and south King County outside the city of Seattle.

Several south King County schools are head-ing north.

At least in a fi gurative sense.Auburn School District athletic director Rob

Swaim said Friday that the three high schools he oversees will “opt up” to Class 4A and resurrect the North Puget Sound League during the 2016-17 school year.

Th e 14-team league, which included Auburn High in its previous incarnation before disband-ing in 1990, will include all of the Kent and Federal Way public high schools along with Kennedy Catholic, Mount Rainier and Tahoma. Th ose schools, with the exception of Kennedy Catholic, which competes in Seamount 3A, are members of the South Puget Sound League.

All three Auburn high schools have competed together in SPSL 3A since 2014, and Swaim said a top priority was to keep those programs in the same league. Th e next consideration, he said, was to minimize instructional time lost through travel and transportation expenses.

With the potential demise of both the 3A and 4A divisions of the Narrows League – all fi ve Tacoma public high schools have applied for admission to the SPSL – South King County programs could have faced regular trips to Pierce County – and beyond.

Swaim said when the Washington Interscho-lastic Activities Association released preliminary

enrollment numbers and those school offi cials began to announce their intentions, local athletic directors began having discussions, as well.

“Th e NPSL was probably going to happen with or without the Auburn schools,” Swaim said.

Swaim acknowledged that not everyone is pleased with the outcome, which will pit Au-burn’s programs against some schools with much larger enrollments in the playoff s. As of the Jan. 6 WIAA enrollment count, Auburn (1,202.75) was the largest high school in the district, fol-lowed by Auburn Riverside (1,179.16) and Au-burn Mountainview (1,095.09). Th ey are among 10 of 14 NPSL 4A that opted up from 3A.

Tahoma (1,712.25) is the NPSL’s largest member followed by Kentridge (1,548.83), Kent-Meridian (1,506.28) and Kentwood (1,438.2).

Schools with the top 16 to 17 percent enroll-ment are recognized as 4A.

Kentlake (1,019.32) was the only Kent school that opted up.

Th ere was not enough members to create a viable NPSL 4A without members opting up.

Kent School District athletic director Dave Lutes said that was not an issue.

“Th e diff erence between 3A and 4A, in our opinion, is negligible,” he said.

Lutes said the impetus for the move was the potential size of SPSL 4A. With the potential additions of the Auburn public schools, Ken-nedy Catholic and Sumner, that league could have grown from 17 to 22 members. Th at does not include the potential demise of the Narrows,

which would leave 4A programs Bellarmine Prep, Olympia, South Kitsap and possibly Tim-berline, which is the smallest school (1,326.21) in its classifi cation, looking for a new league.

“Th e south schools are wonderful people and wonderful friends,” Lutes said. “Th is is more about community and bringing back some of the old rivalries and keeping the new ones we have now.”

Now comes the busy work. Swaim said the NPSL athletic directors have discussed dividing the 14 teams into two separate divisions. Th e Kent and Federal Way school districts, he said, could be evenly split into separate divisions. As for Auburn, Swaim said he expects two high school to play in one division.

“We want to make it a balanced, fair league,” he said.

Other elements that must be sorted out, Lutes said, are developing a fi nancial start-up, sports commissioner responsibilities, a league hand-book with rules and regulations, scheduling for-mats, and league administrative responsibilities.

Lutes, who became Kent’s athletic director in 1990 aft er compiling an 81-20 record during a nine-season run as Kentwood’s fi rst football coach, looks forward to the challenge. He said the NPSL dissolved at that time because High-line and Renton schools changed classifi cations.

“It’s kind of nostalgic for me because I think I’m the only athletic director left that went through that in 1990,” Lutes said. “I just kind of feel like we’ve come full cycle. I’m really excited for the league.”

Questions loom as Inslee seeks second termGov. Jay Inslee is beginning the

last year of his fi rst term with every expectation of winning re-election in November.

But challenges stacking up for his administration will test his executive mettle and political skills as he pursues a second term.

• His Department of Corrections is trying to pinpoint why a soft ware error allowing convicted criminals to be released too soon went unfi xed since its discovery in late 2012. A fi x, delayed 17 times, is supposed to be completed Jan. 13. Meanwhile, offi cials have tied the deaths of two people with criminals mistakenly released early.

• His Department of Social and Health Services is strug-gling to comply with a federal court order requiring the state’s psychiatric hospital reduce wait times for mentally ill inmates held in county jails. Th e agency leader — who an-nounced his resignation Tuesday — is due in a Snohomish County Superior Court on Th ursday where a judge wants to hear when the hospital intends to be in compliance.

• His Department of Transportation is endeavoring to iron out wrinkles in the operation of the new express toll lanes on I-405. Th e most recent involved an error in toll

collections that resulted in readjustments and credits on bills sent to thousands of drivers.

• His Department of Ecology is continuing to draft clean water rules predicated in part on fi sh consumption that will meet federal mandates. Th e Environmental Protection Agency tired of waiting, wrote its own rules last year and is advancing to impose them if the state fails to act.

Th en there are a couple matters involving education: Th e state is still in contempt of a state Supreme Court direc-tive in the McCleary school funding case and getting fi ned $100,000 a day. Th e threat of closure looms for several charter schools and parents are appealing for help from the state.

Although Inslee’s authority in these is limited, he can infl uence the outcome as chief executive.

Overall, this is not the kind of list on which a strong resume for re• election is built. At the same time, it’s too soon to calculate their potential impact but not too soon to be concerned.

An Elway Poll released Wednesday shows Inslee leading Republican challenger Bill Bryant 39 percent to 30 percent with the rest undecided. Th e survey of 500 voters was con-ducted at the end of December.

Bryant is widely unknown around the state and the

survey makes clear he’s got an uphill battle to fi nd enough votes to win.

Inslee isn’t sailing along either. His job performance rating dipped since the last Elway Poll in July and has de-clined a little every six months since January 2014.

Th ere are other fi ndings that hint at Inslee’s potential vulnerability and need to shore up his support.

To that end, Inslee has started directing the conversation away from the challenges engulfi ng his administration to the changes he’s looking to bring to Washington.

On Wednesday, for example, he announced the launch of a statewide initiative to reduce gun• related deaths and injuries. On the same day, he put out the draft of new clean air rules that could force the state’s largest polluters to eventually reduce emissions.

And last month he proposed closing some tax breaks and using the money to give public school teachers a pay hike.

Th ose are among the policy pursuits he’ll put in bold on his resume for the coming campaign.

decorate your porch or patio then transplant them into the garden in May when annuals are available.

If you’ve always wanted a kitten…. Invest in an African Violet

Th ese darling plants have those furry leaves I mentioned plus their small size and pastel blooms up the cute factor. An African Violet fl owering in the pale winter light of a window-sill is as comforting and cozy as grandma’s quilt and a dozing calico cat. You won’t have to clean a litter box but you do need

to make sure your African violet does not suff er from lack of water. Th is is one houseplant that benefi ts from bottom water-ing. Place the potted plant in a bowl of water for a few hours when the soil feels dry. Remove when the top of the soil turns dark in color from moisture.

Want more? Here’s a few other plant for pet substitutes:Chihuahua or mini corky? Attend a home show where you’ll

fi nd dwarf conifers that not only stay evergreen and come in many forms and colors but grow only half an inch a year. Th ey do great in containers.

Pit bull or Doberman? Buy a scary looking cactus or insect eating pitcher plant instead. Post “Beware of guard plant” signs nearby.

Dreamed of your own monkey, snake or leopard? Exotic plants are legal to grow without a permit although some can be very active so you’ll need a lot of room. An indoor ivy plant can be trained to swing from above like a monkey, the sanseveria or snake plant has reptilian skin and the spots on a prayer plant will remind you of a leopard. Houseplants can off er jungle life you’ll be able to enjoy in the living room.

Struggling students

Tahoma High School has seen a lot of bears come and go over the years; bear mascot logos, that is. The school used a variety of graphic images to represent its Bear mascot. Its color scheme has also varied a bit be-cause blue and gold come in many different shades. Now, the school will have one Bear logo and one set of blue and gold colors.Students in grades 6-12 voted recently on

several new bear logo designs, which will be phased in over the next two years as the school prepares to move into the new high school that is under construction in Maple Valley. The logo that was chosen comes from California designer Mondo Rosales, who submitted a design through Design-crowd.com, a web-based marketplace for

creative designs and ideas. Locally pro-duced designs were also considered, but students liked Rosales’ work best.The guidelines for creation of the new de-

sign were established by a 20-person com-

mittee that has been working on rebranding the high school. The committee includes 15 staff members, four high school students and one community representative. The committee outlined its design ideas, then publicized the request for designs in district communications and also launched a con-test on Designcrowd.com. It received more than 50 design ideas and narrowed them to

winning design.Some small adjustments will likely be

made to the logo and to clearly identify the right shades of blue and gold for the school’s colors. Those changes should oc-

colors will be adopted.

When a student is struggling with a concept or skill, some-times the best teacher can be an-other student.That’s the idea behind a new peer

tutoring program at both Tahoma Middle School and Cedar River Middle School, partnering high school volunteers with students to help them in math, reading, organization and other subjects. Staff at each school unknowingly started similar programs indepen-dently this fall, then discovered they had parallel goals and joined forces.“Parents really appreciate the ex-

tra support that their students are getting,” said Lara Lindersmith, a district instructional coach who organized the program at CRMS. “At Cedar River, we wanted to provide extra support for sixth- and seventh-graders who are in the Reading Assistance Program. Since these students get extra reading instruction during ‘Go Time’ (the last period of the day), they aren’t able to use that time to work on their homework and get help from their teachers.”Tutors help those students by

supporting them on homework

and staying organized and on top of assignments. Students who stay after school on Wednesdays are also able to get one-on-one help with reading, Lindersmith added.The high school students volun-

teer between one and three days per week, and can earn com-munity service hours for their senior requirements. More high school volunteers are needed, as there aren’t enough currently and several have had to stop tutoring due to other commitments and changing class loads. No experi-ence in tutoring is necessary, and a one-day training will help get new volunteers up to speed on the expectations, rules, and other basics.At TMS, the idea was spurred

by Student Support Coordinator Lindsay Richter thinking about the different ways students learn, and the fact that a peer tu-tor might explain concepts using methods that strike a chord with younger students.“It helps provide another op-

portunity that’s non-threatening and doesn’t take time out of their school day,” Richter noted.

Those teens who have volun-teered so far have had a variety of reasons and reactions. Senior Steven Pettengill said he

originally signed up simply to meet the 10-hour requirement for his senior project, but continued beyond that requirement.“I liked helping kids succeed.

It’s neat to see that,” Pettengill said. “It’s really rewarding to see when their grades go up.”At the younger end of the spec-

trum, THS 10th-grader Kinnera Inman said that she started tu-toring because she likes it, and also because it’ll help establish a longer timeline of community service for her college applica-tions one day. Inman is consid-ering going to college to earn a

teaching degree, possibly at the University of Washington.“I just enjoy helping others and

making sure that they ‘get it.’ When I was younger, I didn’t al-ways have someone to ask,” she said. Last year she helped tutor at the elementary level, but really likes working with the middle school students. “I prefer the old-er ages -- it’s a lot more focused on one-on-one help.”Transportation is available for

high school students who would like to help but don’t drive yet. They may take an activity bus, and can even take the activity bus home afterward. Any interested volunteers may contact Linder-smith at [email protected] or Richter at [email protected]

Even though the school year is less than half over, parent-teach-er organizations are already seeking volunteers to fill vital positions on their boards for the 2016-17 school year.“Without these positions, the

PTO can’t operate,” said Jami Gallegos, co-president of the Rock Creek Elementary group this year. If the PTO doesn’t function, students and staff will

lose access to vital programs and funding, Gallegos added.All of the PTA/PTO organi-

zations need leaders as well as other volunteers to help out with the many services provided in support of students, families and teachers.If you think you might be in-

terested but are worried about your lack of experience, current board members are happy to

train volunteers. And, if you’d like to know just how much time a certain position requires, ask for an estimate, as some posi-tions are less demanding than others.For information about any of

the positions or groups, visit their individual Facebook pag-es. Or, click here for links to all Tahoma parent-teacher group websites: http://goo.gl/vFCtRi
