Teachers ask school board for help BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON With a standing-room-only crowd behind them, representatives of Ramona Unified School District’s two employee unions asked trustees for “fair and equitable” compensation. Teachers and other school employees do not yet have a contract for this school year. Cori McDonald, Ramona Teachers Association (RTA) president, told trustees at their meeting last

Thursday that the teachers had two options: “We could declare impasse or we could meet one more time, and we chose to do the latter.” Members of the negotiations teams representing the district and teachers are scheduled to meet Nov. 10. “I would ask that you come to the table ready to actually give a fair wage to teachers and give them the same respect that you’ve given administration in this district,” she said as many

Art, wine and chili — all on Saturday

RAMONA SENTINEL An Edition of

Ramona’s Community Newspaper since 1886

Residents and visitors can look forward to a busy Saturday, starting with Operation Flapjacks from 8 to 10:30 a.m. (See page 3), continuing with the 4th Annual Ramona Art and Wine Festival from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and ending with Cornerstone Therapeutic Riding Center’s Chili Cook-Off & Car Show from 5 to 10 p.m. For the fourth consecutive year, the art and wine festival has grown. It will be at Begent Ranch, 18528 Highland Valley Road. Attendees can choose to sip wine from 18 local wineries, and art fans can check out acrylic, oil, and watercolor paintings, photographs, custom jewelry, hand-painted scarves, quilts, pyrography (wood burning), and much more from almost 40 fine artists. Local chefs will provide small bites, and vendors will offer unique gifts and food samples. In a live auction, attendees can bid on six wine barrels painted by area artists. The silent auction has grown, too — featuring art and wine objects. A violin/viola duo, horn quartet, and guitar/flute duo will add to the festivity, playing throughout the day. SEE EVENTS, A22

Board approves plans for medical marijuana grows Praises new design for McDonald’s BY KAREN BRAINARD Ramona Design Review Board approved plans for two medical marijuana cultivation facilities and favored the newest proposed remodel for McDonald's. The board met twice last month, having rescheduled its Sept. 29 meeting to Oct. 13 so it would have a quorum, and then hosting its regularly scheduled meeting on Oct. 27. At the Oct. 13 meeting the board approved a waiver request for a medical marijuana grow at 2338 Montecito Road, near Ramona Airport, with plans to use the existing 2,800-square-foot existing building, add security and remove unpermitted buildings from the property, said design review chair Rob Lewallen. No sales will take place at the business, he said. The board's purview is architectural and landscape design, he noted, and its action "has nothing to do with whether or not we want a cultivation facility in Ramona." A vote on a site plan review for a cultivation facility at ShowGrow, 736 Montecito Way, the only licensed and operating medical marijuana dispensary in

Ramona, was tabled Oct. 13 with members offering several suggestions and adjustments to the plans. Architect Abhay Schweitzer returned to the board Oct. 27 with the suggestions incorporated into the plans for an approximately 13,600-square-foot structure that will replace the current building, a former residence that was converted into a dispensary. Schweitzer added cosmetic changes to break up the horizontal line of the building and reconfigured the heating, ventilation and air conditioning unit so it will not be visible. According to the architect, the sheriff's department, which issues operating licenses for medical marijuana collectives and regularly inspects such facilities, said a no-climb eight-foot fence is required, preferably masonry, and it must be well-lit. The fence would not extend in front of the building where there will be parking spots and the entrance to the dispensary. Lewallen and member Eric Guenther offered suggestions to break up the long line of the fence, such as intermittently adding blocks of color, and member and landscaper Scotty Ensign reviewed proposed vegetation to ensure the longevity of plants and trees to enhance the site. The board approved the plans as modified, 7-0, with Dan Vengler absent.

On Oct. 27 representatives for McDonald's displayed a new design for its building at 1660 Main St. The nationwide chain is going through a re-branding and redesigning its fast-food restaurants, but the design review board told proponents in two previous presentations that the architectural proposals were too industrial-looking and did not fit it with the community character. Lewallen had recommended they study Ramona’s form-based code that covers architectural design standards for projects in the downtown area. Representing the McDonald’s project, Kevin McAuley presented a more rustic design with wood siding in earth tones that retains some of the Mansard roof, and adds a stacked stone and gable roof over the doors and shading over the windows. Signage, he said, will be non-illuminating with goose-neck lighting. "This is what...we believe complies with the form-base code," McAuley said. "That's much improved," said board member Jim Cooper. "What it reminds me of is Cracker Barrel." Other members also praised the look. Although some board members questioned the proposed 24-inch lettering SEE DESIGN BOARD, A5

Duffy reassures voters about Nov. 8 election

Names prosecutor to oversee complaints

BY NEAL PUTNAM U.S. Attorney Laura Duffy has appointed a veteran prosecutor to oversee the handling of complaints of election fraud and voting rights abuses for the upcoming Nov. 8 election. Duffy named Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher P. Tenorio to serve as District Elections Officer for the Southern District of California, a position Tenorio has held in previous elections. “It is our goal that all eligible voters can exercise their right without interference or discrimination,” said Duffy in a statement. “We will work in conjunction with California authorities to ensure that all votes are counted and fraud is prevented. As always the Department of Justice will be available to address any concerns regarding the integrity of the election process.” Duffy said that FBI will have agents available to receive allegations of election fraud,

intimidation, suppression of votes and other election abuses. The FBI can be reached at 858-320-1800. Duffy noted that federal law protects against crimes such as intimidating or bribing voters, buying and selling votes, impersonating voters, altering

vote tallies, stuffing ballot boxes, and marking ballots against voters’ wishes or without their input. Prohibited actions include photographing or videotaping voters, questioning, challenging, or interrupting voters at precinct places.

“Because the franchise is the cornerstone of American democracy, we must ensure that anyone with specific information about discrimination or election fraud report that information to Mr. Tenorio, the FBI, or the Civil Rights Division,” said Duffy.

The POW/MIA table will be set, and veterans and Gold Star mothers and fathers will be recognized. Sheriff’s and California Highway Patrol officers and other first responders will also be recognized. Opportunity drawings for prizes and gift certificates for various businesses and restaurants in town will be held. A Veterans Affairs representative will be at the breakfast to provide benefit information to veterans. Event proceeds will benefit American Legion Boys State, Ramona High School Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (NJROTC), Ramona Senior Center and American Legion Post 332. Anyone interested in helping American Legion Post 332 honor the community’s veterans with sponsorships and/or donations of services and merchandise may contact Brad Stewart at 760-315-1675 or Mike Thweatt at 760-788-5947.

BY LAEL MONTGOMERY Measure B, the county ballot measure that would allow a major housing and retail development to be built near Valley Center, would be bad news for all of San Diego County — including Ramona. Measure B would set a dangerous precedent that threatens the character of rural areas throughout the county. The development is highly flawed, and would lead to increased traffic on I-15 and higher taxes for all county taxpayers. Ramona residents should understand that Measure B is bad for all San Diego County residents. A developer wants to build 1,700 homes and put in 90,000 square feet of retail space, all on agricultural land zoned for 110 homes. With this development, another piece of rural San Diego County would get paved over. Accretive Investments, the company that wants to build Lilac Hills Ranch, is using the ballot measure process to circumvent the county’s public planning process. Accretive was unable to get approval from the county Board of Supervisors for Lilac Hills Ranch, so the company is now trying to snow voters into handing them everything they want by voting “yes” on Measure B. A “yes” vote means Accretive gets to skip the accountability and oversight required of developers — not to mention the environmental review process — required by the traditional public planning process. If Measure B passes, this ballot measure process would beckon to any big developer looking to write its own ticket for backcountry development. If it can happen in Valley Center, it can happen in Ramona. We need to nip this idea in the bud. Measure B claims that the Lilac Hills development would help ease the county’s affordable housing shortage. In reality, it does not include any affordable housing or dedicated housing for veterans. Meanwhile it directly violates the county’s General Plan, which cost more than $18 million and over a decade to prepare. Lilac Hills Ranch is slated to be built in an area that is at high risk of wildfire. We all know that fires in this region can move incredibly fast. The General Plan calls for a 5-minute response time for fire and other emergency services for developments of this density. But Measure B allows response times for Lilac Hills Ranch to slip to as long as 10 minutes. Add to that the limited evacuation options and the lack of funding for improving the narrow, winding country roads serving the land in question and you have a disaster waiting to happen. Measure B was drafted to require the developer to pay for only a portion of the road and freeway improvements essential to allow 5,000 new residents to travel safely in and out of their community to jobs and other essential services. An independent study by San Diego County estimates that this development would generate more than 19,000 car trips every day. The county would have to step in and pay for improvements to local roads and freeways for a SEE MEASURE B, A5

OUR READERS WRITE Each candidate deserves and requires scrutiny In a recent letter submitted to the Ramona Sentinel, one local gentleman suggested the voters support those candidates who are willing to maintain existing compromises, or submit to a philosophy of “Going along in order to get along.” All well and good if those incumbents have been producing the results that the individual voters agree with, or the changes that the community needed. This rarely the case with incumbents. If you were not happy with the previous elected body or their efforts, why should you vote them back in, or vote for any candidate who happily announces that he is just a clone or crony of an out-going officeholder? Every good citizen has a responsibility to vote wisely. Your vote influences your community and how we all will live in it. You need to know how well the funding we provide these elected officials will be accounted for. After all, the money they will spend is not theirs, it is yours. And any problems they either cause or ignore will also be ours to deal with, possibly long after they have gone! Ask yourself, has each candidate made it clear where he or she stand on the known issues, have they made specific statements or are they just promising to “not rock the boat, or make waves?” How will they react to new problems, and all those issues that were not resolved by the previous officials? What is the character of each potential person, do they understand the issues, or where the community may stand on these topics? Are they open and communicative, or do they prefer a smoky back room, with little or no opportunity for the public to be heard after the votes are tallied? Does he or she hear your voice, or just the representatives of one or two special interest groups. Will the candidate listen to and carefully weigh all of a community’s issues, or do they continuously beat one single drum? There are many valuable resources for understanding each potential candidate. The Ramona Sentinel has published a wealth of materials, opinions, as well as relevant questions and various answers from the runners themselves. Ask yourself, do they have a website

or other community connection, can they convince you that their self-stated ideals will actually be matched by their actions and the way that they will vote for you? Can they actually represent you, or are they held back by a multitude of conflicting interests that renders them conveniently immune from having to vote on anything? That is why so many people are now supporting a policy of voting for new candidates or for representatives who will be driven by an obvious need for change or reform. You cannot move forward on a “Vote for me, I am the same as the last guy” platform. Each new contender both deserves and requires your scrutiny. Barry Davis Ramona

Amazing support from businesses We have such a great community. I have been riding with my trainer, Roo Alcantar Petter at Golden Pointe Farm, for one year and I competed at the Greater San Diego Hunter Jumper Association's Championship Show recently for the first time ever! I had such amazing support from local businesses. I want to thank my sponsors for supporting me: Matt Parker Hay Company, Dr. Larry Martin of Large Animal Veterinarian Associates (LAVA), Kahoots Pet and Feed Store, and Hawthorne Country Store. The show was an awesome experience and I learned a lot. Thank you very much. Madison Marriott, age 11 Ramona

FROM MEASURE B, A4 cost of $1 billion or more, and taxpayers would get stuck with the bill.

Congregation tackles remodel with grace and talent BY KAREN BRAINARD Pooling the wide-ranging talents and skills of its congregation, Grace Community Church has completed a remodeling project to refresh its 70s-era building. "What we've done in the last year is develop a whole team," said Shelley Goodson, director of facilities. The facilities team members met on a consistent basis, deciding on priorities and coordinating design and decorating ideas with such technical aspects as electrical and plumbing. "So it's been a great group effort with everybody contributing,” Goodson said. Serving on the facilities team as the leads in various trades are: Roger Blanchard, contractor; Ted Visser, repair; Jim Robinson, plumbing; Bill Reed, electrician; Lyn Jaggi, decorating and design; Cesar Cervantes, maintenance; Steve Lovei, information technology; Chuck O'Neal, heating, ventilation and air conditioning; Rick Reiling, grounds; and Jeff McEntee, safety and security with assistant lead Tom Carmody.

Facilities are toddler-size and a larger changing area was created with cabinetry. "The kids are actually excited to use the bathroom," said Goodson.

Outside, passers-by will notice Grace Community Church’s new sign at the corner of San Vicente Road and Barger Place. The artistic poured concrete monument sign was designed by Goodson and Jaggi and constructed by John Christensen of Ramona. The design, Goodson said, was the result of online research and a desire for a natural look. Landscaper Rick Reiling, a member of the facilities team, will be adding lighting to the sign and the cross that stands next to it, as well as landscaping. Not to let anything go to waste, Grace Community's former

sign is now installed in front of the church building. Goodson said more lighting will be added in the parking lot. “They just did a fabulous job,” said Senior Pastor Paul Nelson, who pitched in with some demolition work. “We’re really blessed with incredible people.” Nelson said they had not upgraded the campus for 10 to 15 years, believed it was time and had the finances to do so. It’s a good feeling, Goodson said, for all to participate in making the church more beautiful.

MVA junior receives Inspirational Student award BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON A Mountain Valley Academy junior described as responsible and independent received Ramona Unified School District’s Inspirational Student of the Month award at the school board’s October meeting. Sierra Marty embodies the characteristics Ramona Community Campus wants to develop in its students, Principal Dr. Kathryn Gunderson, Ph.D., said: “caring, warm, kind, sensitive, perseverance, genuine, compassionate, ethical, resilient.” “Her quiet leadership is appreciated as shown by the offices she holds in a variety of student organizations,” Gunderson said as she presented Sierra to trustees at their meeting last Thursday. “Teachers and students alike appreciate that Sierra is kind, polite and demonstrates good judgment.” This the second month the district has honored a student as Inspirational Student of the Month. The new tradition at school board meetings started last month and will continue through the school year, with a student from a different school honored each month.

She is Associated Student Body treasurer, communications officer of the National Honor Society, peer tutor for a sixth-grader, and managing editor of the school’s yearbook. She also plays softball for the Ramona High School Bulldogs. Well-liked and respected by her peers, she is a study buddy and mentor and, “we notice that she reaches out to the underdog,” Gunderson noted. “We know that Sierra is who she is

because of the support and guidance of her family,” added Gunderson, pointing to Sierra’s parents and brother in the audience. Saying she is honored to be recognized as the Ramona Community Campus Inspirational Student, Sierra credited her teachers for their caring support. “I am so grateful to have been given so many fantastic opportunities at MVA from acting as a treasurer in ASB to writing a book with an author in creative writing,” she said. In addition to schoolwork, she said she has learned leadership, responsibility and creativity from her teachers and principal. Her career plans are to be a high school English teacher “at an amazing campus like Ramona Community Campus.”

Mountain Valley Academy and Ramona High School drama students under the direction of Juliana Bowman Stewart will perform Brian D. Taylor’s light-hearted comedy, “Villain School,” on Nov. 4, 5, 11 and 12 at 7 p.m. The production will be in the Ramona Community Campus Multipurpose Room at 1010 Ramona St. Tickets may be purchased in advance in the RCC Office or at the door. Tickets are $5 per person. Early purchases are recommended because the venue seating is limited and tickets are expected to sell out quickly. The Villains’ Institute for Learning Evil (V.I.L.E.) is where all the famous storybook villains go to learn their wicked ways. Like any school, V.I.L.E. has its own social groups: The Monsters, who are always hungry and love to scare people; the Witches, who make a mean brew; the Convicts, who are expert thieves and con-artists; and the Misfits, who just don’t fit in. There are also the Evil Geniuses, who rule the school and are at the top of the food chain. But everything is turned upside down when the smart and talented new student, Frank Stein, shows up and challenges the status quo. Things get even worse when he falls head over heels in love — because love is strictly forbidden at Villain School. That’s why Heidi Jekyll, the object of Frank’s desire, wants nothing to do with him. That is, until the potion she concocts for the science fair goes awry, transforming her into a sugary sweet princess. Faced with potential expulsion and certain embarrassment, will the forces of evil ultimately tear them apart, or will true love prevail?

Loss to Poway follows Bulldogs win Valley League title close first half BY JOE NAIMAN Although the Ramona High home football game ended as a 51-22 Poway victory, the Titans' halftime lead over the Bulldogs was only 16-14. "We played a great first half," said Ramona head coach Damon Baldwin. Ramona would have led at halftime had a third Bulldogs touchdown not been called back due to an illegal alignment during the Oct. 28 game. The score after three periods was 30-14. "We came out in the second half and we had some breakdowns on defense," Baldwin said. "They had two big scores the third quarter that sort of made it tough to get back in." The game was Senior Night for the Bulldogs, who will close out the regular season Friday at Del Norte. Not all of Ramona's 13 seniors are starters, and Baldwin wanted the reserves to see action during what might be their final home game. "We wanted to make sure that every senior got to play," he said. Saturday's CIF playoff seeding and selection meeting will determine if Ramona's Nov. 11 game will be at home or on the road. The Bulldogs will take the 15th overall Division I seed, which would translate into a seventh seed in the Division I playoffs — the top eight Division I teams compete in the Open Division playoffs — and a home game if Ramona SEE FOOTBALL, A12

Host Bishop's in Open Division playoffs Friday

BY JOE NAIMAN A home victory over Fallbrook gave Ramona High School's girls volleyball team the Bulldogs’ third consecutive Valley League championship along with an 8-0 league record for 2016 and a 28-6 regular-season record. The Oct. 29 playoff selection and seeding meeting gave Ramona the second seed in the Open Division playoffs, allowing the Bulldogs to host Bishop's in Friday's match, which will begin at 5 p.m. and provide Ramona with a Nov. 8 semifinal home match beginning at 7 p.m. if the Bulldogs defeat the Knights. "We're looking forward to playing Bishop's," said coach Connie Halfaker. Bishop's defeated Ramona in the semifinals of the Sept. 23-24 Beach Cities Invitational tournament to account for one of Ramona's three losses to CIF San Diego Section

teams. Torrey Pines, which accounted for Ramona's only home loss of the season Sept. 20, received the first seed in the Open Division playoffs. La Costa Canyon received the third seed. Ramona's win over Fallbrook last Thursday was preceded by a 25-15, 25-12, 25-13 home victory against Escondido. Halfaker sought to give her younger players experience for future seasons during the second round of league play. With the exception of the Fallbrook match, which not only had the league championship at stake but also provided Ramona's players a higher level of competition in preparation for the playoffs, Halfaker used Ramona's five senior and three non-senior starters — including the platoon players — in the first game, played only non-seniors in the second set, and brought the seniors back to the court

for the third set. One of Ramona's non-senior starters is sophomore Gracie Seits, whose 9 points serving in the second game explain why the substitutes won by a larger margin than the starters. "We went on a serving run and they were not able to handle the serve," Halfaker said. "They just couldn't mount any kind of an offense." Seits had three aces during her 10 serves including the one which ended with an Escondido sideout. The Bulldogs only went through one serving rotation in the second set. "That was pretty darn good," Halfaker said. Paige Torsak added four aces during the second game. "She served well also," Halfaker said. Katie Flinn, who is one of Ramona's seniors, had five aces in the first and third sets. Flinn also led the SEE VOLLEYBALL, A12

The loss to Poway gives Ramona a 2-3 Valley League record and a 4-5 overall record entering Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game. A win over Del Norte would give Ramona third place in the Valley League standings. The contributions by Ramona's seniors against Poway included two rushing touchdowns scored by Dawson Castro and 2 extra points kicked by Hunter Gurrola. Caleb Berman, who is a junior, also had a rushing touchdown for the Bulldogs, and junior Dominic McManus caught a pass from junior Casey Buggeln for a 2-point conversion. Not all of Ramona's 13 seniors played. During practice on Oct. 26, linebacker Dylan Imig injured his knee. "We just had some individual breakdowns on defense that cost us," Baldwin said of the loss to Poway. "This was one of the better offensive games we had."

team with nine digs while junior McKenna Marshall had seven digs. In their two sets Karina Martinez had eight kills and Natalie Seol contributed seven kills. Seits and Marshall had six kills apiece. Sammy Shupe had 22 assists in her two sets. Jilian Martin only had three assists in game two, a tribute to Ramona's serving prowess rather than to any setter deficiency. "So many of our points came from serves, aces, and them making errors rather than us getting kills," Halfaker said. "You don't need to have kills if the other team's making all the mistakes." The lack of an Escondido offense also led to low block totals: Seits, Marshall and Caitlin Harris had one block apiece to share the team lead. "When a team doesn't hit very much you can't block," Halfaker said. Fallbrook was the only team to win a set against Ramona in league play. The Oct. 11 match in Fallbrook began with the Warriors winning a 25-15 set before the Bulldogs won the other three games. That match accounted for Fallbrook's only league loss prior to the Oct. 27 competition, so a Warriors win at Ramona would have created a co-championship with both teams having 7-1 league records. "It wasn't a super easy match," Halfaker said of the second-round contest against Fallbrook. "Fallbrook is a good opponent, but we did some really good things in that match." The preparation was not for 2017 but for the 2016 post-season. "We could play a little bit higher level," Halfaker said. "We had an opportunity to work on some blocking strategies and work on some offensive strategies."

The Warriors had a 17-8 lead in the first set. "We were overplaying and making a lot of errors," Halfaker said. Flinn, who scored 14 points on her 19 serves and placed all 19 of her serves in bounds, then served for 11 consecutive points to give Ramona a 19-17 lead. "That is remarkable for her to do that," Halfaker said. "She just delivered ball after ball and made it difficult for them to get in an offense." The sideout that ended Flinn's serving in that rotation was the Warriors' final point of the 25-18 Ramona victory. The Bulldogs prevailed by a 25-20 score in the second set and a 25-17 margin in the third game. "We had a lot of hitting errors early, but then it got cleaned up pretty well," Halfaker said. "We came away with a strong victory and it had to do with passing and serving. We just put the opponent on their heels." Six Ramona players served. Three of them, including Flinn, had 100 percent of their serves in bounds. "That's pretty amazing," Halfaker said. "We were very, very solid on serving technique." The team had 11 aces including three apiece by Flinn and Shupe. "We did serve very, very aggressively," Halfaker said. "We really, really dominated from our serve." Seol led Ramona with 10 kills, senior Morgann Wilson had eight kills, and Seits had six kills along with a .455 hitting percentage. Seol recorded five blocks and Seits added four blocks. Shupe set for 26 assists to give her a total of 734 for the regular season. The stats for Martinez included one ace with 100 percent of her serves in bounds, four digs, three kills, and a 2.57 passing percentage with 3.0 constituting perfection. Flinn had 13 digs. "We had a solid defensive effort," Halfaker said.

Girls capture cluster meet Gibson wins by 50-second margin BY JOE NAIMAN First place in the Oct. 28 league cluster meet at Kit Carson Park gave Ramona's girls the top position in both league cluster meets this year to set the Bulldogs up for a league championship if they match that success during the league championship meet Nov. 12 at Guajome Park. That league championship meet will be the next competition for the varsity Bulldogs, although the North County Conference has a junior varsity championship meet Nov. 4. "We'll get some solid workouts in those next two weeks," said head coach Sherri Edwards. Guajome Park was the site of the first league cluster meet Sept. 30, when Ramona's girls had 38 points and Valley Center placed second with 65 points. Marissa Talle, who finished fifth in the first league cluster, was ill Oct. 28 and did not compete. "I kind of challenged the rest of the girls to step up," Edwards said. Seven Ramona girls placed in the top 20. "I was really pleased with the way the girls competed," Edwards said. The Kit Carson Park course is 3.0 miles.

‘HotSauce’ clinches Pro Buggy championship Rain, Wind and Fire… -Sponsored Content-

Tears of joy flowed after Darren “HotSauce” Hardesty Jr. of Ramona clinched the 2016 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series Pro Buggy championship. Competing at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in Chandler, Ariz., the 16-year-old led at the halfway point Oct. 22 and went on to win the final points race of the season. His results put him in a tie for the championship with Garrett George, but when the tie-breaker was decided by most wins in the season, Hardesty earned the title. “After I took the checkered flag, my spotter, Matt Major, came on the radio and told me we had won the championship,” said Hardesty. “I can’t put into words what it means to us. The whole team was so happy, tears of joy were flowing. “We worked so hard this year after getting no points at the first race of the season. It was important to us that we had the chance to battle with Garrett George and my other competitors all year. Garrett is a great competitor. He made us work hard for it and I learned a lot from him. I was so anxious before this race, I could not sleep for a week. I wasn’t tired, I was pumped full of adrenaline.” Hardesty, a third-generation racer, said he knew he could count on his team to have his Pro Buggy in good shape for the

I can’t thank the crew, my fans and my sponsors enough; I could not have done it without them,” he said. After becoming the youngest driver to win a professional series race, Hardesty also became the youngest driver to win a pro series championship. His accomplishments were noticed by the Off Road Motorsports Hall Of Fame committee who nominated him for a Rising Star Award. “The nominees and winners of the new Rising Star category have already gone above and beyond in their respective category,” stated Bud Feldkamp of the committee. “They may already have numerous

Hardesty has followed in the footsteps of his father, Darren, and grandfather, Earl, who both won off road racing championships. HotSauce’s goals in the off season are to hit the gym and make preparations for another championship run in 2017. For more information about Hardesty, see darrenhardestyjr.com.

Team improves league record The San Diego Open boys water polo tournament that began Oct. 24 and concluded Oct. 29 accounted for two Ramona High School victories and three Ramona losses. The Bulldogs played six games during the week, and an Oct. 25 home win against Escondido, which was part of Valley League play, improved Ramona's league record to 2-2. Tournament results gave Ramona an 11-11 overall mark entering the final week of the regular season. Ramona's final regular-season contest will take place Friday at Santana High School. Saturday's CIF playoff seeding and selection meeting will determine the Bulldogs' future matches.

The El Capitan High School pool was the site of Ramona's Oct. 24 San Diego Open game against Eastlake. "We got delayed a little bit by the lightning storm," said Ramona coach Donnie Williams. Ramona had a 9-5 lead entering the fourth quarter. "We were strong. We got out to a good lead," Williams said. Eastlake scored all five fourth-quarter goals for a 10-9 victory. "We took some poor shots. We turned the ball over four times on four consecutive possessions," Williams said. "It was really disappointing." Ramona's victory over Escondido was by SEE POLO, A22

SHERIFF’S REPORTS An armed robbery was attempted at Valero gas station, 1210 Main St., around 1:20 p.m. Oct. 23, when a suspect displayed a folding knife and demanded cash, according to the sheriff’s Ramona station. Several people were in the store, said Sgt. Robert Samuels, and the suspect ran away when someone threw a small liquor bottle him.

FROM TEACHERS, A1 the students, and that is “having quality teachers and classrooms, having classrooms filled with teachers who are credentialed, and being able to hire teachers at a comparable wage.” Comparing Ramona teachers’ salaries with the 36 districts that have reported to the San Diego County Office of Education, McDonald said “we’re ranked in the bottom 20 percent, yet our scores are actually in the top third.” Ramona High School math teacher Kylee Heath, who earlier in the meeting participated in a presentation of math interventions at the school, said more than 50 percent of the teachers in the math department are teaching an additional class each day and are exhausted. The extra class means they do not have a preparation period and they have 40 more students. “That’s 40 more students to prepare for, 40 more students to make contact at home with, 40 more students to grade their tests, to provide interventions for, and we are wiped,” said Heath, a 2002 Ramona High School graduate who is in her ninth year of teaching. “We are exhausted, but we’re doing it because it’s right for students.” When they learned a math position was unfilled at the start of the school year, the teachers could have refused to take an extra class, but they didn’t want almost 200 students to have a substitute, “and probably not a substitute that was qualified to teach math,” said Heath. “I’m asking that you help us,” she said. “Please help us to hire and retain high-quality teachers.” The math department has had a 70 percent turnover in the past four years, and only three math teachers have been at the school longer than four years, said Heath, adding that they’ve had a new curriculum based on new state standards. “Please help us, please support us, please make it so we can at least fill our department so we’re not drained at the end of every day and so that we can actually get good quality teachers,” she said. “We need to compete with these other districts that are hiring all of our teachers out from underneath us.” A CSEA survey of classified employees — the term applied

to support staff such as custodians, food service, teacher aides and secretaries — shows that Ramona’s classified workers are among the lowest paid in Southern California, said Betsy Bargo, president of CSEA’s Ramona Chapter 733. It’s easy to see the work the employees have done in the district, but “what’s not so easy to see is the morale among the employees regarding the lack of respect shown towards us,” she said. Contract articles are frequently misinterpreted and recent hiring practices are stacked against existing employees, said Bargo. “Realizing that we are experiencing declining enrollment, it is prudent for the district to continue smart saving measures, but it is also important to take care of the employees as well as the upkeep of our facilities,” she said. “If the value of the employees of RUSD is directly related to the compensations being offered, then the district surely does not value us.” Employees saved the district money by changing their medical insurance program, and they will continue to partner with the district on cost-cutting measures, but not at the expense of the employees, who depend on their wages to maintain their households, Bargo said, her voice breaking with emotion. “We stand with the teachers regarding a fair and equitable compensation agreement for all RUSD employees,” she said. Because the statements from McDonald, Heath and Bargo came during the Public Comment portion of the meeting, trustees did not respond until later in the meeting during their individual board reports. By then, most of those who had been in the audience had left the meeting. “I definitely heard you and I agree with many of the things that you said, and I did read the article in the paper,” said trustee Rodger Dohm, referring to a guest commentary McDonald submitted for the Oct. 27 issue of the Sentinel. “...Absolutely, teachers need to receive compensation that’s fair and equitable. There’s no doubt, and I don’t think there’s anybody on this board that would disagree with that.” Because negotiations are confidential, it may not always be evident, “but I want to make sure that you all understand

Terese Baker

Ramona — our beloved wife, mother and grandmother, Terese Baker, passed away on october 2, 2016, in Grass Valley, Ca. She was 71. Terese was born on July 15, 1945, in San Diego to Charles and naraka Quantrell. In 1976, she moved to Ramona with her family. She was passionate about being a teacher and spent the majority of her career teaching second grade at James Dukes Elementary School. She retired in 2008 and moved to Grass Valley to be closer to her grandchildren. Grammy was a huge part of their lives and spent many hours working in their classrooms. Terese was a wonderful person who always put others first. She will be

greatly missed. She is survived by her husband, Ken; son, Eric (Jules) Baker; daughter, Liz (Jordan) mcKay; and grandchildren, milo, Taryn and Zachary. a private memorial will be held at a later date. Please sign the guest book online at legacy.com/ obituaries/ramonasentinel.

that we’re working towards that,” said Dohm. Dohm said he wished all the teachers were at the meeting. “I want to make sure that you all understand that we absolutely appreciate and admire all of the teachers, and I don’t want to leave classified out. We absolutely appreciate what you do,” he said. The board celebrates all the wonderful things the employees do and recognizes their hard work and the ideas and approaches they’re giving, noted Dohm. Referring to the trustees’ discussion in September of test scores based on the state’s new academic standards, Dohm said the results reminded him of “back when we had the API (Academic Performance Index) scores,” and he repeated some of what he had said at the September meeting. “We were all freaking out when they came out,” he said. “We’re like, oh my gosh, all these test scores are so low and we were just really frustrated about it, but we knew it was new, we knew that it was going to get better, and so I can tell you that my prediction is they are going to get better. I already see that, and I commend you for all the work you’ve done.” Commenting on the Sentinel’s coverage of the September meeting, trustee Dawn Perfect said the article was incomplete. “What needs to be restated is that Ramona performs in the top third of similar neighboring school districts,” she said. “That’s very important. Our schools are not terrible.” Test scores all over the county and state “show that our student test proficiency is at an unacceptable rate,” she said, adding that is not “actual proficiency.” “I know our students, and they are leaving our schools ready to do great things,” she said. “...Our test scores don’t show what we really are doing.” As seen by the Math Interventions presentation during the meeting, Ramona teachers are showing they are leaders in creating a path to student success, said Perfect. Joining Heath in that presentation were Ramona High Principal Dr. Rowena Mak and math teacher Ciara Swier, a 2011 Ramona High graduate. They discussed the support system the school provides math students and teachers as it transitions to new state standards and math curriculum. Among other business at the meeting: • Trustees unanimously opposed Proposition 64, the Nov. 8 ballot proposal to legalize and tax recreational marijuana in California. In their letter of opposition, they said they believe Prop. 64 “could provide children access to marijuana and create an unsafe environment for children and our community at large. Additionally, marijuana is associated with problems with learning and memory.” • Assistant Superintendent David Ostermann said student enrollment continues to decline from the district’s peak of 7,271 in 2001-02, but not in the three-digit numbers experienced a few years ago. Enrollment this school year is 5,535 — 51 fewer than last year, but 41 more than projected in February. Enrollment translates into district revenue and staffing, Ostermann said. The fact that this year’s kindergarten class is the largest the district has had in five years and the elementary school experienced a decline of only one student is positive, noted Ostermann. Some years after the Great Recession, the district saw a decline of up to 235 students, he said. • Trustees approved a request for proposals (RFP) to buy the 40 acres of surplus and vacant land behind Ramona High School. The RFP should go to the public on Nov. 4, said Ostermann, projecting that proposals would be due on Dec. 8 and presented to the board on Dec. 15. The board is not obligated to choose any of the proposals, he added. • After a representative of Cenergistic LLC responded to a series of questions from trustee Bob Stoody, trustees approved a five-year contract with the energy reduction firm contingent on approval of a contract with EnergyCAP, the third-party company that will provide the energy accounting software program. The program’s projected net savings is at least $130,000 in the first full year and nearly $950,000 over the five years of the contract, the district reported. “I read the contract,” said trustee John Rajcic. “...I think you did a great job. In any contract there has to be a meeting of the minds and there has to be a great deal of trust, and I see that in this relationship. Even from your past experience, checking on it, you’re a great company and I have confidence in you.”

RAMONA SENTINEL - NOVEMBER 3, 2016 - PAGE A17

Veterans Day Pushup Challenge Ramonans will bring attention to the number of veteran suicides in the 22 Pushup Challenge at San Vicente Resort on Veterans Day, Nov. 11. The social media-driven event will start at 4 p.m. at the 10th tee of the San Vicente Golf Course, 24517 San Vicente Road. Much like the Ice Bucket Challenge of a few years ago, videos of participants doing 22 pushups will be posted on Facebook’s 22 Pushup Challenge site, home of the campaign. The 22 Pushup Challenge, also called the

22KILL Pushup Challenge, began in 2013 after the Veterans Administration reported that an average of 22 veterans commit suicide every day. Ramona resident and Navy veteran Jay Reed, suggested Ramona join the effort to bring attention to the need for veteran suicide prevention, saying he was inspired by his daughter. The community is invited to participate in the challenge.

“The idea behind creating this event is to spread the word throughout our community and to invite those who can join in this great cause,” said Heather McGhee, who is helping to coordinate the event. “The Ramona VFW, which is an advocate for suicide awareness and prevention, will join in support and encouragement to all who attend.” The challenge is a platform to raise awareness, not just of veteran suicides, but also to the factors that can lead them to suicide. These mental health issues may stem from post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury, or the struggles and pressures of transitioning from
