Enumclaw residents approved incorporation Jan. 27, 1913. It was the second time it went before voters.

The Enumclaw City Council came up one seat short after the November general election due to a residency requirement problem. Morgan Irwin took 63 percent of the vote for council Position No. 1. Due to an oversight of the code, Irwin said he had to “recuse myself (from the council position).” He missed the residency requirement of one year by about 75 days.

Some students also participated in an NFL PLAY 60 Ultimate Fitness class with the Seahawks and Sea Gals.

During the season, the Seahawks make about 15 to 20 “Play 60 Tuesday” school visits, but this visit was special because it came with a $10,000 check.

“We know what motivation and inspiration can do for kids,” Davis said.

“Have fun today, but take away from this, what the Seahawks here said, find a why to stay fit mentally and physically.”

Garton said the grant would be used to build a community walking and jogging path around the school’s field so the elementary school mileage program has a place to continue its program and the school can host fundraising walk-a-thons.

Black Dia mond Elementary was one of 34 schools from across the country selected as a winner in the NFL PLAY 60 Super School Contest. The honor includes a $10,000 NFL PLAY 60 grant to be used for health and wellness programming or equipment.

The school received the grant because fifth-grade teacher Jill Forza said she responded to an NFL Play 60 prompt on her social media page this summer.

She said she shared how her class uses Seahawk quarterback Russell Wilson and his video as a role model.

“It’s got a great message,” she said. “We pick out quotes, like he talks about his father told him to always persevere and keep a great perspective and have great purpose in life. We put those things up on a bulletin board and all year long we refer to it.”

Happy New Year, Letters is a great an annual apology Enumclaw place to help others, Well, pop the champagne and give a rebel yell. Once again, it’s time to take stock of the past year and declare goals and resolutions for the future. (But bear in mind that Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists – more than half the world’s population - have different calendars.)

Where did last year go? Beats me. It simply vanished in a wisp of air, leaving me confused and dazed - a state that isn’t particularly rare - but ready for another round of drinks, streamers and noise-makers.

In my weaker moments, I’ve already started thinking about next year’s columns, yet I’m always receptive to suggestions. So, if Wally DuChateau any of you have topics Columnist that may be of community interest, leave me a note in the Courier-Herald office.

I’ll take this opportunity to extend my annual apologies to people I may have offended in the last 12 months.

Of course, that has never been my intention. Allowing for a little artistic license for the sake of humor, I’ve tried to keep my historical facts and anecdotes relatively accurate.

New Year’s Eve in downtown Enumclaw isn’t especially uninhibited or crazy, unless things have changed a lot in the last few years. There’ll be free glasses of sparkling wine

LAST WEEK: Did you make an effort to “shop local” rather than heading to the malls this season?

build a fullfilling life I have recently been attending the meetings at the Enumclaw fire station and last night at Enumclaw City Hall with my neighbor, Elbert Reed. I have been utilizing Enumclaw as my bedroom community for 30-odd years, now. I was one of those that left town every day to do battle in medical commerce in a business suit. Now that I have retired I am looking to be useful. I have been hanging around the Senior Center and enjoying subsidized meals in those venues in Kent, Auburn and at Thanksgiving.

From my perspective, a lot of us do not understand how unique this little burg really is.

Name another town in western Washington that brings a smile to one’s face as you drive down Griffin into downtown. Let’s not take this for granted anymore.

One can take ones’ family out for a nice meal and not worry about a shootout taking place in the parking lot. Like in Auburn or Kent.

At one of the meetings, a big, young firefighter used the term “collective” to me, as “we’re all in this together.” I got a chill up my spine as that term is certainly politically loaded around these parts. Some of the concerned firemen’s spouses were there as well.

I realized there is the perception in town that our firefighters have a cushy existence and take advantage of the system of government

entitlement. At one of the meetings, it was suggested that our guys go out on calls by themselves as a cost-cutting measure. I, of course, thought this ludicrous.

I’ve been a substitute driver for the Enumclaw Meals on Wheels program for the last eight weeks and it is a very spooky experience in the dark out here looking for a rural address. Even with GPS. These guys are on a duty schedule where they spend nights away from home and hearth. If one does not have experience with 24 hour responsibility, as in the military, for instance, one can’t appreciate the term “sacrifice” on this “small scale,” I suppose.

I understand that most of their calls are emergency medical calls.

We have an increasingly aging

What’s next for South Africa?

Mandela is Gone, Now What?

Note: This is the second in a series of articles written from and about South Africa.

A German national, his Afrikaner wife and her grandmother, all living in Johannesburg, virtually exploded when I asked them at a bed and breakfast meal what they thought would happen to South Africa now that Mandela was gone. The woman saw reverse apartheid increasing since the blacks took over the government in 1994. They obviously were concerned about this question because they see South African President Zuma as corrupt and arrogant and his African National

In Focus Rich Elfers Columnist

Congress (ANC) as self serving and no better than the Afrikaner Apartheid government the ANC replaced.

They were worried about Zuma using taxpayers’ money to improve his private home in Kwa-Zulu Natal, and the ANC’s recent passage of the

Secrecy Act, which will give the government power to quash revelations of corruption. They were leery of the future of the ANC because none of its leadership comes close to the level of integrity of Mandela, although they mouth his virtues.

Like the diversity in the country (blacks making up 79 percent of the population, whites 9 percent, coloureds 9 percent, and Asians [from India] who make up the rest), attitudes varied. In my travels, everyone I questioned had a different perspective on the power of Mandela’s example and the future direction of

is what I pray to see in this new year; God’s grace being extended to others, to all others around us even while we remain true to our consciences so that we are not hypocritical in our conversation, but with such respect for the image of God found in all human beings that even those with whom we disagree may recognize the deep respect and value we hold for them.

There is already enough thoughtless conformity to keep the world a mess; wouldn’t it be better to have real dialogue and real respect for each other that encourages us to treat each other better?

any person should be treated with contempt or denied justice.

One of the things making the discussion so difficult is the way in which our values are derived; Christians derive their values from a source that we believe is divine, God-given words preserved in the Bible, and though we often disagree with each other on how to live those values out, we usually agree on what God has said through scripture.

This means there are values which are not the result of our own experiences or philosophy and these things include some of the difficult social issues of today. Such values are not amenable to the idea that truth is relative or that each person is the highest authority for themselves on all questions of good or bad. Yet at the same time, we believe as Christians that no one is perfect, that all fall short of the perfect goodness of God, and that consequently we have no claim to being in ourselves the authority on all moral values.

Rather, we are seeking to learn and to live out the values we learn from God through his word and through our experience of God’s grace to us. And that

elfers FROM 6 South Africa.

A 70-something white man became very emotional when he told me he and has family had lost their family fortunes twice: Once when the black government of Zambia confiscated their property, and again when Mugabe’s Zimbabwe government repeated Zambia’s practice of taking the white farmers’ land.

He bemoaned the fact that though these two countries’ white farmers had made them the breadbasket of Africa, the current Zuma government of South Africa is sending food ship-

ments to feed Zimbabwe’s people, using South African taxpayer money. This troubled and angered the man, because with the passing of Mandela, many whites fear that South Africa has lost its moral compass and will follow Zambia’s and Zimbabwe’s lead. They are concerned South Africa might go from bread basket to welfare recipient.

The Asians and the coloureds were not as concerned as the whites about the coming elections. One Indian woman doubted that South Africa would follow the example of Mugabe. A coloured woman, who wanted Zuma to resign, thought that since Parliament made the decisions, one man,

Zuma, could not destroy what Mandela helped build.

She thought Mandela’s message of integrity was strong enough to continue. There would be no unrest, even though she thought Zuma would be re-elected.

Of the blacks I talked to, none was concerned that Zuma would turn South Africa into a Zimbabwe.

They didn’t like Zuma’s actions—his use of taxpayer money to improve his home and the Secrecy Act, mentioned above.

Several said that Mandela had been out of power for a long time and nothing was really going to change with his passing. One Zulu black reminded me that in South Africa, vot-

www.courierherald.com ers vote for a party, not an individual candidate. The country needed another Mandela, but none was in the wings. One black woman thought Zuma would be defeated in 2014; her friend disagreed and thought he would be reelected as leader of the ANC and the country.

Time will tell which direction Zuma and South Africa will take. Will South Africa weather this crisis of confidence because of the strength of Mandela’s example of integrity, or will it follow the precedents set by Zambia and Zimbabwe?

The South African election in 2014 could answer this question.

Casey Dean Krull

Enumclaw resident Casey Dean Krull passed away on November 22, 2013. He was born on July 15th, 1984 in Long Beach, California to Jeff Krull and Penny Davis.

He was 29 years old. Casey moved from Long Beach to the Enumclaw Plateau with Jeff and his older brother Kelly in 1998. He was a 2003 graduate of Collins Alternative High School in Buckley, WA and a current employee of the postal service in Enumclaw. Casey enjoyed collecting comics, attending Comic Con conventions and spending time with family and friends. Casey’s passion for movies and comics went beyond mere collecting, as he actually wrote an entire 500-page script for a Superman movie. In addition to his father Jeff and mother Penny, Casey is survived by his grandfather Filbert Krull, aunt Bonnie Blechschmidt and cousins Lee & Brian Blechschmidt, all of Enumclaw, maternal grandparents Gene and Charlotte Davis along with numerous relatives from the Southern California area. He was preceded in death by his brother Kelly Krull in 2008 and grandmother Alvina Krull in 2012. Casey’s infectious laugh, warm smile and huge heart impacted the lives of so many people wherever he went. We will forever miss him. He was and will always be our Superman.

Memorial services will be held at the Calvery Presbytarian Church in Enumclaw, WA, on Saturday, January 4th, at 1:00pm.

Superint. Message Levy Info Talking Techie Calendar Promises The Big Win

MESSAGE FROM JANEL 90.4% On-time graduation rate for the Class of 2013.

In his book Start With the Why author Simon Sinek reminds us that we constantly need to go back to our core purpose - ensuring that everyone in the organization understands why we exist. He illustrates this concept with an apt reference to the work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr. King was absolute in his conviction. He knew change had to happen in America.

His clarity of WHY, his sense of purpose, gave him strength and energy to continue his fight against often seemingly insurmountable odds… and that speech was about what he believed, not how they were going to do it. He gave the “I have a dream speech”, not the I have a plan speech. (p 126-129) In White River our dream – our mission - is to ensure high levels of learning for all students preparing them for successes beyond high school.

Every day we look for evidence that we are achieving our district mission of ensuring high levels of achievement for all students. The single most important expectation for us is graduating our kids with the knowledge and skills that they need to enter the next phase of their life, whether that is post-secondary education or the world of work.

We are pleased to announce that the on-time graduation rate for the Class of 2013 at White River High School is 90.4%! In comparison, state wide the rate is 77.2%. This high level of success is attributed to teachers and staff throughout our district. Our belief is that all grade levels are responsible for teaching the skills necessary to be successful in high school, not just the teachers that a child has once they enter the ninth grade.

Let me share a heartwarming example from this week. Jonathan is a senior at White

River High School. He’s the first member of his family to ever attend college and his mother was so proud when the college acceptance letter arrived that she hopped on the internet and purchased a new Eastern Eagles t-shirt. She then held on to the letter for a few days and when the shirt came met Jonathan at the door in tears holding the acceptance letter and wearing her “Eagle Mom” tshirt. Jonathan is one of 17 AVID seniors who have recently received acceptance letters from colleges.

Jonathan’s mom commented, “In four years Jonathan has shown a commitment to his learning. His brothers and I are so proud of him! Dream big and work hard and anything is possible.”

The team at White River High School, led by Principal, Lainey Mathews, has been focused in implementing structures to support kids who need additional support in their learning, in both in the academic and socio-emotional realms. Once at WRHS, kids have many opportunities to explore a variety of career pathways and academic options. We are proud of each and every one of our graduates and confident that they will accomplish great things!

Each New Year is a time for renewed commitments—promises we make to ourselves and to each other. The commitment we make as a school district to the White River community is the same for next year and it has been every year—to continually get better. These are our children, our future. They deserve to be educated at high levels.

Happy New Year!

LEVY INFO

Educational Programs Replacement Levy – Four Years • Not a new levy. The current maintenance and operations levy is expiring and this would renew the levy at the current rate of $4.17 per $1,000 of home valuation.

• Provides funding for classroom teachers and paraeducators, instructional materials, full-day kindergarten, athletics, security, transportation, nursing, counseling and more.

• Accounts for 22% of the district’s annual budget.

Approximate Levy Rate: Collection Year Levy Rate/$1,000 Levy Amount 2015 $4.17 $ 8,700,000 2016 $4.17 $ 9,100,000 2017 $4.17 $ 9,500,000 2018 $4.17 $ 9,800,000

Technology Capital Improvements Levy – Two Years • A one-time levy, costing taxpayers 50 cents per $1,000 for two years only.

• Will supply classrooms with technology that is competitive with our neighboring districts. Each classroom would be provided a laptop, projector, document camera and possibly an interactive whiteboard. In schools where this has been funded by local PTAs, technology resources like individual student tablets could be added.

• Acquire instructional hardware and software, upgrade our infrastructure, and provide training to staff in how to integrate these new technologies into classroom instruction.

Approximate Levy Rate: Collection Year Levy Rate/$1,000 Levy Amount 2015 $0.50 $ 1,000,000 2016 $0.50 $ 1,100,000

TALKING TECHIE When we talk technology, what does “updating our infrastructure” mean?

• Wireless. Add additional access points in order to accommodate the increase in devices accessing the Internet via our wireless network.

• WRHS wiring project. Due to incompatibilities with our current high school fiber connections we cannot upgrade workstation systems beyond Windows XP, which will no longer be supported by Microsoft as of April 2014. This campus must be rewired in order to upgrade our workstations.

• Switch upgrade. Our current network switches average eight years in age and do not provide managed services, which help to target and resolve issues in a timely manner. In order to provide a managed, consistent, high-speed access to staff and students these switches will need to be replaced.

• Aging wiring. Many of our school buildings’ wiring is more than 20 years old and have never been upgraded. In turn, many of these cables that provide network access are beginning to fail and need replacing.

• Generator. Many of our technology services run through our central office, including our phone system. If the power goes out, we must ensure that our phone systems remain up and running in order to maintain communication with our other school buildings, as well as emergency services.

GET READY!

Get Ready to Start School in the 2014-15 School Year Registration for our youngest students will occur on Wednesday, February 5th at each of our elementary schools.

This will be the day for parents to complete and return the paperwork needed to enroll your child. You do not need to bring your child with you on this date, but we will ask you to bring your child back to the school in May for a brief screening. Information from the May screening will help the school prepare for each student’s learning needs.

Your child is eligible for free full-day kindergarten if they turn 5 years old by midnight of August 31, 2014. The full 6.5 hour kindergarten day includes lunch and recess time.

Early Kindergarten is a half-day program geared toward students whose birthdays fall between Sept 1st and December 31st and are eager to learn, or for those whose birthday is before the August 31 cut-off, but would like to wait before starting regular kindergarten.

For more information, call your child’s school.

Running errands, it’s almost like a date With teens in the house, mom and dad get creative for alone time

It’s taken my husband and me a couple years to adjust to having teens around the house. They have opinions of their own, once they are driving they want to go places by themselves, and they may or may not do what we want when we want them to do it.

So why is it, to quote a friend of mine, “they are everywhere?”

You would think once our children become more independent they would be a lot less work. They are not. They seem to take even more effort than when they were little. It’s emotional energy they sap from their parents and I believe it’s at this time

Sounds easy right? Not so easy. Apparently there is a season for mattresses Gretchen Leigh and this wasn’t Columnist it. So not really knowing what in their childhoods when to do, we decidparents start to lose touch ed to go to Taco Time with each other. and have some lunch and So my husband and discuss mattress options.

date.” When one or the other of us needs to run to the grocery store for something, we invite the other along. It usually leads to lunch, not always at Taco Time, but usually fast food. It’s whatever place that will kick-start an inexpensive “date”; sitting down and being waited on, if only for a minute. Somewhere to sit and reconnect without catering to the needs of our teens.

There have also been spontaneous breakfasts at McDonald’s when we were on our way to work in my mother’s yard, to pick up steer manure/ compost mix for our front garden, or to collect car parts at O’Reilly’s.

Sure, we have actual date nights, but we’re not very good at consistently scheduling those. Our

be back soon,” and we’ll be gone for a couple hours. They are none the wiser, not being particularly attached to watching the clock.

So we grasp onto these moments when we can steal away from our teens, who seem to be everywhere. It’s a huge success when they don’t text or call us while we are away.

Then we can honestly say, “It’s like a date.”

daughters often derail plans with an event or need they forgot to tell us about until the last minute. Although some preplanned events get disrupted by moods (theirs or ours), lack of energy or we just plain ran out of time.

However, because we have teens and they have the ability to be physically independent, meaning they can be left in the house alone and feed themselves, we know they can manage for the few hours we are gone. Better yet, because they are teens and focused mostly on their own wants and needs, if we stretch a quick trip to the store into a spontaneous date, they will probably not notice.

We often leave the house with a farewell of, “Going to Home Depot,

Teachers Turn the Key award

away from the experience with a long-lasting peer cohort and tools that will help them have successful careers as agricultural educators.

Amy Cable, former agricultural educator at Enumclaw High School, was one of 41 individuals nationwide who received the Teachers Turn the Key Award, given Dec. 7 at the National Association of Agricultural Educators annual convention in Las Vegas.

“What impresses me the most about Ms. Cable is her ability to work with her colleagues, engage in collegial conversations about instruction and continually improve her ability to teach for student understand,” said Kevin Smith, assistant principal and Career and Technical Education director at Enumclaw High. “She worked hard to build and promote positive, respectful relationships with all students and is always willing to go the extra mile to support a student in need.”

Cable was nominated for the award during her time at Enumclaw High.

She taught through the end of the 2012-13 school year at EHS as Amy Morrison. Prior to the start of the current school year, she married, moved and accepted the post as an agriculture teacher at Mount Vernon High School in Mount Vernon, Wash.

Each of the TTTK winners received a scholarship to cover convention registration and travel, participated in a specially designed professional development track, and was recognized at a general session.

The Teachers Turn the Key award program brings together agricultural educators with four or fewer years of experience and immerses them in three days of professional development that addresses issues specific to the early years of a teaching career.

Johnson, 10, was the grand prize winner of QFC’s Holiday Kolbi Holiday Bag Contest. Her drawing appeared is on all pabags at all QFC stores in Washington and Oregon.

NAAE is the professional organization in the United States for agricultural educators. It provides nearly 8,000 members with professional networking and development opportunities, professional liability coverage, and extensive awards and recognition programs.

Participants also have the opportunity to become involved in NAAE leadership and network with other NAAE convention attendees. TTTK award winners come
