Sprague asks home-schoolers to participate in day programs
COURTS Continued from page 5
SPRAGUE – Sprague Elementary School has issued an invitation for home-schooled students of kindergarten through fifth grade age to participate in daily reading and math programs. Children in Sprague and Lamont are eligible to participate in the morning sessions. “We offer a K-5 direct-instruction reading program that has children placed according to their reading abilities,” explained teacher Bill Ressel. “We have had excellent results where many of our students have advanced to a reading level two grades above their current grade.” Parents of eligible students are invited to visit the program and may set up a time to come and observe with principal Pat Whipple or one of the office staff at (509) 257-2511. “We seek to form a partnership with our home-school community by working with parents to help them develop an educational program that is right for their children, Ressel said, adding that more information is posted at www.spraguelamont.com (follow the link to Sprague Elementary under the “School News” tab).

David Lee Lambert, Spokane, probation violation (driving while license suspended), 2 days jail converted to 30 hours community service, $100 court costs. Small Claims Court Respondent Radan Richard Allen, of Sprague, prevailed in a matter filed by Ramon Torres, of Lamont, who sought $1,750 claimed owed for the purchase of a 1998 Arctic Cat. The court dismissed a claim by Alexsey Bodunov, of Tum Tum, that Luka and Irina Matveev, of Ford, owed $5,000 from a dissolved business partnership, as the claim seemed to be related to a previously judged matter in 2009 and also exceeded the court’s jurisdiction.

Opera House hosts scablands program HARRINGTON – Cheney author John Soennichsen, will explain how the unique features of the region’s coulees and scablands were created as he tells the story of J. Harlen Bretz at the Harrington Opera House on Friday night at 7. The scientific community once believed that the deep canyons and channels in the Inland Northwest were carved over long periods of time by glacial ice. In 1922 and 1923, University of Chicago geology professor Bretz and his graduate students began the work to scientifically explain his vision of a cataclysmic flood hundreds of feet deep, miles wide and moving at incredible speed. Soennichen’s presentation will include an explanation of how some of the topography of Lincoln County was created. Copies of his book, Bretz’s Flood: The Remarkable Story of a Rebel Geologist and the World’s Greatest Flood, will be available for sale. The slide show will take place in the upstairs auditorium. Tickets are $10 and light refreshments will be served at this fundraiser for the continuing rehabilitation of the facility. Before and after the Harrington Fall Festival Parade on Saturday morning, another local author, Har-
rington native Kathy (Thiemens) Walker, will share her children’s book, The Loving Family Tree. A portion of the book sales during her “Meet the Author” session will also be donated to the Society. In just three weeks, Bronn and
Katherine Journey will return to give a benefit concert on Thursday, Oct. 14. Advance tickets for events are available from the Harrington City Hall or call 253-4345 (weekdays) or 253-4719 or visit www.harringtonoperahouse.org .
