Selma City Schools to unveil Parent University Bus next week Bus will serve as mobile classroom to get parents more engaged

Selma City Schools want to get parents more involved in their students’ schooling, and what better way to do that than to bring the school to the parent? The district’s new Parent University Bus will serve as a

mobile classroom to give parents information about education and "become empowered to be the best parents they can be," said Cynthia Perkins, parent engagement coordinator for Selma City Schools. The bus, which was donated by Tuscaloosa City Schools, is being transformed by Selma

High School’s Career Technical Education program into the Parent University vehicle and should be ready for its big reveal at 10 a.m. May 15 in the Selma City Schools parking lot. The bus will on display in communities and areas where the parents are available and at events throughout the city.

"Parental Involvement Classes" will teach parents the importance of reading, math, the importance of attendance, as well as how to have conferences with teachers... "basic parenting skills," Perkins said. The community will also be invited to do adult education training, computer training, to learn about fitness and health, college preparation, especially for the parents of the high school students, and how to fill out financial aid forms. Perkins said there will be 20 to 30 tablets available to help children with academic skill training with access to "Edgenuity." She explained that parents and students will also be allowed to work together to build those skills. Perkins said the school system is currently looking for donors for flooring, electrical outlets, an air conditioner and a generator.

While the bus won't be put into service until the start of the next school year, Perkins said Career Technical Education program students are currently doing the carpentry, the electrical work and welding on the bus. Courtney Washington, community engagement specialist, noted the entire CTE program is involved. The Parent University Bus comes under the school system's five-year strategic plan to "Develop processes and procedures to offer wraparound services in connection with community agencies,” Washington said. Perkins has been involved with parent engagement for more than 20 years and said Parent University was something the community and city needed. When Selma City Schools Superintendent Dr. Avis Williams said she had a bus she wanted to get retooled,

Perkins said, "Wow, that is what I've been waiting for. So, I just hopped right on it and started working toward making it happen." Perkins said the bus was donated to the school system and the outside painting was done by David's (David Holmes) Paint and Body in Selma. Perkins said CTE instructor Darryl Davis's drafting team did the floor plans, and welding instructor Timothy Talton's welding students are doing all the welding on the bus. Also, the Parent University Bus committee included Raefel Simmons, director of federal program; Lydia Chatmon, parent; Sheila Savage, parent; Lorainne Capers, truancy; Joe Peterson, operations director; Irene Patterson, homeless coordinator; and Linda Johnson, parent specialist.

One way in, one way out Courthouse security top-of-mind for Dallas County Sheriff Mike Granthum By Fred Guarino Selma Sun Staff

Dallas County Sheriff Mike Granthum has public safety on his mind when it comes to the Dallas County Courthouse and the courthouse annex. Granthum wants one way in and one way out for both buildings through metal detectors and a way to allow handicapped citizens to enter the old courthouse with a buzzer and a camera from the ramp at the back. But Grantham said a goal to have the metal detector entrances manned by July or August is up to the Dallas County Commission. And, he said, the security is in a threestep phase to get the funding. Granthum said for the past year and half to two years, metal detectors have been in use for high-profile court such as murders to make the courtrooms safe. But, he said, there have been some “small incidents such as intimidation of witnesses or "two family members get into it from opposite sides." As a result, he said, "We're taking it a step further. We want to secure both courthouses, the courthouse annex

and the old courthouse... We felt like it's time to secure our courthouse... make it a safe working environment for our people, make it safe for our community when they come in and out to get a tag. They should be able to feel safe coming in and out." However, Granthum said, the security effort began in the middle of a budget when there wasn't any funding for it. Still, he said, the Dallas County Commission and the judges got together, and the judges allocated some money to purchase metal detectors, which he said was the first step. The second step was to purchase the metal detectors along with some mobile devices called "metal detection wands," which have been installed. But Granthum said, "The third step is to figure out how we're going to man them." "The devices are in place, the wands have already been purchased. But, you know, they're kind of useless if you don't have somebody in there manning them," he said. The County Commission is currently looking at the insurance part of it to see if it would be more economically feasible to man the equipment on a contract

basis, to hire a private security company to come in and do it, or if the commission is going to hire their own employees. He said the commission is currently holding work sessions to determine how to man the metal detector security. The sheriff pointed out they’ve had a camera system installed for several years. But he said, "A camera system doesn't prevent crime. It only helps you solve crime once it has been committed." He said, "We want to take it one step forward and prevent it (crime) before it happens." And Granthum said that is what is going to be done. "We are going to have a pretty tight security system. We are going to have one way in each courthouse and one way out." But for the handicap ramp at the back of the old courthouse, Granthum said the plan is to have a security camera on that and a buzzer. And at the station where the metal detectors are, he said, the plan is to have a monitor and an audio device to let them know someone is buzzing in "and we will be able to buzz in our handicapped people."

Late on your property taxes in the city of Selma? Find out inside SELMA SUN STAFF REPORT Inside this week's edition of the Selma Sun is a list of delinquent property taxes from the city of Selma. How did these folks end up on these pages? They failed to pay their city property taxes by Dec. 31, when

they are determined delinquent. Each year, property taxes are due by Oct. 1. Landowners are sent a reminder notice before the due date and then notice that the bill is delinquent. Late charges also kick in. After Dec. 31, the bill gets a late charge of $5 and 12 percent interest per year – or 1 per-

cent a month – is assessed on the bill. If there is still no response from the landowner, they are sent a certified court notice from the probate court to give a reason why their taxes are delinquent, and court is set for 10 days after the notices are sent.

Tax bills not resolved in the court proceedings are then advertised for three consecutive weeks in the local newspaper, in this case the Selma Sun. If no payment is made on delinquent taxes after this, the property is placed up for auction on the courthouse steps at noon 30 days after the first

advertising date, which falls on June 1, 2019, this year. The property is then sold to the highest bidder. The tax office’s goal is to get the back taxes, interest, late fee, advertising cost and court cost. Check for delinquencies on Pages 4-6 inside. Find print copies of the

Selma Sun at Carter Drug, Swift Drug, Holly True Value, the Coffee Shoppe, the Selma and Dallas County Library, Vasser's and the Selma & Dallas County Centre for Commerce. Copies also available at the Selma Sun’s office at 711 Alabama Avenue during regular business hours.

Bloom House serves up tennis matches and mingling in ‘For the Love’ fundraiser for foster children

Bloom House Founder Kristen Jones, center, with board members Emily Adkins and Chad Bennett. BY SAM JONES

Special to the Selma Sun The Bloom House hosted “For the Love” tennis mixer

May 2 at InShape Fitness in honor of National Foster Care Awareness Month and to raise awareness for children in foster care in Central Alabama.

Original art by local foster children was on display for attendees to enjoy and purchase as well as T-shirts with a “Be the Village” message. Guests enjoyed a low country shrimp boil and festive Honey Deuce cocktails while they watched various tennis matches. Trevor Wilson and Bradford Brackin were among the winners. Bloom House Founder Kristen Jones explained the mission of her agency as a foster care and adoption ministry dedicated to advocate for and serve vulnerable children and their caregivers through resources, support, and by commissioning the local church to engage according to their capacity. Bloom House offers monthly support groups for foster and adoptive families, free art classes for children in foster care, birthday celebrations to ensure every child gets special recognition, household items for foster families such as car seats, beds, diapers, and baby supplies, and host an annual Back to School Bash to make sure every foster child starts the school year off with everything they need to succeed. “A lot of the statistics are cycles that we see, so when

Tennis matches were held throughout the event. we never engage the child and break the cycle, we in turn empower the cycle,” she said. “There is a need for each of us to ask ourselves what we can do and then to do it.” With the funds raised from this event, The Bloom House will continue efforts and begin to offer scholarships for foster teens entering college, adoption grants for prospective families, and employment opportunities for foster teens.

Annual Selma & Dallas County Chamber Golf Tournament a ‘huge success’ BY FRED GUARINO Selma Sun Staff

The annual Selma and Dallas County Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament on May 1 at Valley Grande Golf Course was a huge success, according to Sheryl Z. Smedley, executive director. Smedley said the annual chamber fundraising event helps cover costs to operate and keep the chamber viable. And this year, 21 teams and 59 players participated. "It was great. We had a wonderful turnout and look for-

ward to another successful year," Smedley said. Winning teams included: First Flight: Pine Belt Wireless - 54, Ronnie Andrews Team - 58, and Pepsi Team No. 1 – 59. Second Flight: Pepsi Team No. 2 – 61, Johnny Moss Team - 62, and Carter Drug Company – 65. Third Flight: Store Room Fasteners - 67, Vaughan Regional Medical Center Team No. 3 – 68, and Bush Hog - 72. Pine Belt included Troy Harville, Will Pearce and Andy Stewart. Ronnie Andrews team included Andrews, Scott

Harrison and Shane Harrison. Pepsi No. 1 included Wendell Nickles, Willard Nickles and Mark McEthaney. Pepsi No. 2 included Robert Massey, Bucky Wall and Bodie Shoulin.

work and planning put in by our local churches, the Craig Airport staff and the Pine Glen community made this event one to remember.” Corrigan thanked Selma “for supporting the Pine Glen and Craig families in making this great event happen.”

The courthouse is already monitored by security cameras.

Granthum said the courthouse will be secure, even if it is a bit inconvenient to start with. But he said,” You know, it's a day and time now we can't worry about inconvenience; we've got to worry about safety." Granthum said the system will cause people to enter and exit from one place. And as long as the courthouse is open from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. each day, "There will be somebody manning those metal detectors," he said. The sheriff added, "We are also in the process of giving our employees badges to let us know they are employees here and they won't be required to go in and out (through the detectors) every single time." There is also a plan to secure the doors. He said he has a new pistol permit machine that can encrypt a strip that can activate special door locks that will show who went in and what time they went in and out. "We have everything done now except we’re waiting on the hardware for the doors." He said the pistol permit

machine is up, and the County Commission is in the process of getting estimates for the hardware on the doors and determining how to man the things. Granthum said the judges stepped up to purchase the metal detectors. "They felt the need... They know it's important. Things happen quick in a courtroom and they know we are just trying to make it safe." Granthum also said that now no cell phones are being allowed in the courtroom to prevent intimidation. He said if someone comes in with a cell phone, they are not allowed in the courtroom and will send them back to their car to put their cell phone up. Granthum also noted that while the metal detectors downstairs are not currently manned, those on the second floor with the courtrooms are being manned by the Dallas County Sheriff's Department. A goal has tentatively been set for July or August to man the other detectors, but that is up to the County Commission.

City councilwoman, Morgan Selma police work with teens Academy plan cleanup day to show they’re human too at Live Oak Cemetery BY TODD PRATER

Special to the Selma Sun

SELMA SUN STAFF REPORT Selma Councilwoman Miah Jackson will be partnering with John T. Morgan Academy's Student Government Association and the football team to hold a cleanup day for Live Oak Cemetery on May 18. Live Oak Cemetery is a historical landmark in Selma that was established in 1829 and is known for interring a number of Civil War veterans. It is commonly noted for its population of live oak trees draped in Spanish moss. A portion of the cemetery with more recent burials is known as New Live Oak while another portion with historic graves is known as Old Live Oak. On May 18, Jackson and the academy's SGA will visit Old Live Oak Cemetery for the cleanup. The public is invited to join in the effort. Volunteers are in need of rakes, trash bags, weed eaters, leaf blowers, and push lawnmowers. The cleanup will be held from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Live Oak Cemetery is located on 22 Dallas Avenue in Selma.

City cemeteries are overgrown since the city laid off workers who maintain them.

Coordinator for Selma is Capt. Johnny King, and SRO Kenny Keith will also be involved. SROs are one of the driving forces behind the program and serve as instructors. Also joining the Chief on his show was Selma City School Superintendent Dr. Avis Williams. Dr. Williams said school safety is a top priority because learning cannot go on if there are interruptions and chaos. Dr. Williams said SROs maintain order in the schools as well as build relationships. When she came to Selma there were no full time SROs. Now there is one full time at Selma High, with plans to fund up to five in the system. Under her proposal, the school system and the city of Selma would each fund two and a half SRO positions. Three SROs would be at Selma High and two at R.B. Hudson. Dr. Williams said this will help build positive relationships between students and law enforcement while reassuring parents that their kids are safe at school. Collier said the school system has done its part, and the program is now being debated by the Selma City Council. He added Council President Cory Bowie is working hard to make it happen.

It’s been said that perception is reality. Selma Police Department’s Bridging the Gap program is designed to change a dangerous perception of police among youth. The program is a partnership between the U.S. Attorney’s office, the FBI and Selma Police Department. On his radio show, which airs on 94.7 WJAM Thursdays at 9 a.m., Selma Police Chief Spencer Collier welcomed special guests from the U.S. District Attorney’s office in Mobile – Assistant U.S. Attorney Chris Baugh and his legal assistant Leigh Ann Waldrop. Commander Curtis Graves of the Mobile Police Department was there as well. Baugh said the idea behind Bridging the Gap is to teach teens, mostly high school students, how to interact with police officers in various situations. Baugh explained that too many interactions between young people and police end with serious consequences, sometimes even death. He said too many young people learn what they can and cannot do and what police officers can and cannot do from watching television. And Baugh and Collier agreed that TV usually gets it wrong. Through role playing and actual interaction with officers, students in the Bridging the Gap program learn the proper way to react in a traffic stop, when police are called to their home to investigate domestic violence and how to react if they encounter police randomly. Baugh said the bottom line of Bridging the Gap is for everyone involved in law enforcement situations to survive and for citizens to feel comfortable reporting criminal

activity to police and not “holding court our on the streets.” The hope is through these interactions, students will gain trust and understanding of police and be more likely to let police know when they see crime. But it is a two-way street. Officers will gain insight and build trust for citizens as well. Collier said that Baugh made this program happen in Selma in a very short time. “I didn’t think we would get it in place before the end of the school year,” Collier said. Baugh credited Waldrop for her work in creating program. He said Graves is the brains behind Bridging the Gap in Mobile. Officers teach the program in Mobile schools, and school resource officers are from the precinct that serves that school, which builds and relationships and trust. Baugh said when kids first come to the program, they are “acting cool and being very cliquish.” Graves said they break up the cliques, and by the end of the program the kids are all smiles and asking questions and interacting with police, FBI and staff from his office. The Bridging the Gap program started with Selma High students on May 3. Program

Thirteen teams signed up and had the air filled with the heavenly aroma of boiled mudbugs, corn, potatoes and all sorts of secret spices and special ingredients. For those who do not like crawfish, there was hamburgers and hot dogs. Because of rain, the crowd was not as large as the past two

years. The kids that came out played all afternoon, with pickup football games and bounce houses. The adults ate mudbugs and visited while listening to the musical entertainment provided by Joe Wright. As the afternoon wrapped, Henry Hamm won first place and Roger Campbell second place.

Disrupting the summer slide By Avis Williams

Selma City Schools Superintendent We are only a couple of weeks from the time of year that children look forward to for months. Yes, it is almost summer break! I love that our scholars get a break from the day-to-day routine of school but worry about the impact that said break may have on their academic progress. I worry about the summer slide. Research supports that when students do not read during the summer months, they experi-

ence a decline in their reading ability as well as other academic skills. This is called the summer slide and is most common in elementary aged students. It can be prevented and disrupted by finding ways for our scholars to continue learning throughout the summer. Let’s explore how families can help support this. The best way to prevent the summer slide is simply to read daily. Reading for just 20 minutes a day is enough to counter the summer learner loss. Team Selma’s scholars will have access to MyOn digital books all summer long. Titles

can be matched to each individual student’s interest, grade and leading level. Also, we have an amazing public library with hundreds of wonderful books! Make reading a family affair. This is an excellent opportunity for family members to serve as role models for younger children. Involve everyone and take turns participating in read alouds followed by discussion. Although reading daily is the most effective remedy, there are some other activities that are both fun and beneficial. Spending time cooking together is a great activity to keep the brain active.

This will involve both reading and math and will result in a tasty treat at its conclusion. Engaging conversation is another useful strategy. Make a list of fun topics that challenge your child’s curiosity. This will help increase the vocabulary which in turn supports improved reading ability. Finally, find time to learn and enjoy a new hobby. Have your child research information about the hobby or find an interesting book about it. Even an audio book will do! The point is to make learning fun and to do so consistently.

It is important for learning to continue even though school is not in session. Selma City Schools want to help. Check out our social media sites later this week for information about several summer programs that will take place at select schools during the month of June. We invite churches and other groups to partner with us this summer. If you are providing a summer program, let us know how we can support. Let’s work together to disrupt the summer slide!

Morgan Academy softball team loses state bid but gains strength for next year BY FRED GUARINO Selma Sun Staff

The Morgan Academy Lady Senators fell short in their efforts to win an AISA Class AAA state championship in softball in Montgomery on May 2, but they are building for the future. The Lady Senators, who entered the state tournament played at Lagoon Park in Montgomery as a number two seed, fell to Pike Liberal Arts 6-0 in game one and fell to Tuscaloosa Academy 10-3 in game two. But Morgan Academy Softball coach Cherie Grimes said her

Lady Senators accomplished their goal in reaching the state tournament, and said they are going to build upon it. "We have continuously grown together as a team this season and continued to improve each day,” she said. “It was an amazing feeling for all of us making it to state." She said, "We knew we could get there. We put in all the work, and we did it as a second seed in our region. We made our goal, and now we are going to build on that." Grimes said all her girls worked really hard this year.

And she said three new additions to the team, Tindall Albritton, Maggie Colley and Averee Adams "were a great asset." She also said, "Leanna Johnson made huge improvements throughout the year and is growing into an outstanding athlete." Grimes said during the state tournament, senior Abigail Lane really stood out defensively. She said, "She made several diving catches and outstanding plays." Additionally, she said, "Ansley Smitherman and Madi Britt were our pitcher-catcher duo, and they did a great job, as well."

Grimes said, "We did a great job against Pike on Thursday, defensively. They got a couple of good hits and blooper hits in the hole, and we couldn't catch those breaks. We fell apart in the second game." However, Grimes said, "We will continue to build our softball program at Morgan Academy and continue to grow into a talented, competitive team. We made our goal to reach state. We did. Now we move forward." Grimes added that coach Edward Miller was a huge asset to the team with his 39 years of expe-

rience. "He was with us this year teaching us all the core details to become a successful team." In prior action, the Lady Senators defeated Tuscaloosa

Academy 6-1 before falling to Bessemer Academy 14-2 at home on Friday, April 26. That earned the Lady Senators the number two seed in the state tournament.

Morgan Academy baseball team won playoffs, plays for state title this week BY FRED GUARINO Selma Sun Staff

Morgan Academy Senator Joseph Estes (7) comes sliding home on a passed ball in game one of the best of three series on May 1.

The Morgan Academy Senators are Montgomery bound with their 29-0 undefeated season intact to play for an AISA Class AAA state championship in baseball at Riverwalk Stadium on May 8. The Senators followed up a victory over Lee-Scott 14-4 in six innings in the first game of a best-of-three round three playoff series at home on May 1 with a 16-5 win over Lee-Scott in game two at home on May 2. The second game was pushed to Thursday due to a rain shower that moved into Selma Wednesday evening. At Riverwalk Stadium, home of the Montgomery Biscuits, the Senators will face Pike Liberal Arts at 10 a.m. this coming Wednesday in the first game of the state title series.

Senators first-year head baseball Coach Stephen Clements said following the victory Thursday, "Hats off to our guys for the way they battled, and they competed.” He said when one guy struggles, the whole team picks him up "and that's what we did today." Clements also had praise for Lee-Scott for being a "really good, well-coached" ball team. "We were fortunate and had some good swings and had some guys that did a good job of getting on base and then some guys moving them around," he said. He also said the bottom of the Senators' lineup "was really, really good to us throughout the whole series." Getting some big hits for the Senators were Brayton Brown, who had two home runs, Gunnar Henderson, who had a home run and a bas-

es-loaded triple, and Xavier Green, who was outstanding for the whole series with two doubles. Matthew Davis got the start on the mound in Thursday's game, but it was freshman pitcher Andrew Thomas who got the win. Of course the Senators will be carrying three big weapons with them when they head to Montgomery in search of a state title to ice their perfect season so far. Brown, David DuCote and Henderson have already signed to play their college ball in the Southeastern Conference with Auburn University. Clements said all three have been "lights out" this season in "attacking the ball at the plate, playing really good defensively and having some really good swings."
