Pullman Center in Profile News & Updates CCS Pullman is hiring! We are inviting applications for two full-time student service positions, and we look to fill adjunct teaching vacancies in Biology, Environmental Science, Physics, and Psychology for the academic year '23-24. Apply asap at bit.ly/ ccspullmanjobs.

D I S C O V E R Y O U R PAT H Start your educational journey at the CCS Pullman Center this Fall

Our health, fitness, and wellness program is growing in exciting fashion with Dr. Aaron Kilfoyle. This fall quarter, students can choose for-credit courses in health, cross and resistance training courses. Most SFCC students enrolled for 12 or more quarter credits can also participate in the outstanding, non-credit physical education program at the WSU Chinook and UREC Centers, having to cover only the workshop fee as WSU students do.

We are thrilled to have secured a $74,000 grant to support the growing STEM program at the CCS Pullman Center. Assistant Dean Patrick Forster and a faculty group including Dr. Linda Cook, Dr. Punam Dalai, Dr. Azeza Falghoush, and Clay McDonie, M.S., developed an ambitious proposal earlier in spring ’23 that rose to the top of SFCC’s annual resource grant selection process. The grant expands the laboratory education we offer STEM students at our Center.

Pullman Community Update 9

The Gladish Community and Cultural Center August Events

To give you a quick recap of July, Gladish began demo work on the auditorium! We removed 900+ seats from our auditorium, rehousing about 100 of them to members of the community!

The work we have started is just demo prep as we get the project work itself out for quote to help keep the costs lower.

Our abatement crews completed their work, so we are almost done with demo prep for the real construction to begin! Keep up with our journey here in the Pullman Community Update, or on our social media channels!

If you feel up to it, we ask kindly for your support. You can donate to the project at gladishcommunity.org/ donate

If you are looking to support Gladish in a different way, consider coming to our production of Shakespeare’s ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ on August 26th and 27th!

Tickets are available at gladishcommunity.org/tickets “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” by William Shakespeare is a light-hearted comedy filled with magic and romance. When the old laws of Athens drive four young lovers into the woods in search of freedom, they end up caught in the crossfire of a domestic dispute between fairy royalty. This leads to love triangles, betrayals, transformations, and mistaken identities, making for a fun and entertaining show for the audience and actors alike!

Get your tickets now before they’re gone!

PULLMAN SCHOOL DISTRICT

Pullman Community Update 17

From Associate Administrator to Assistant Principal

Kelsey Winningham, Franklin & Kamiak Elementary Assistant Principal

Two years ago, Pullman School District had two open positions for Associate Administrators between the four elementary schools. This was a new position and one that was going to add an extra layer of support for our elementary schools. After interviewing, I was offered the job and started my position on July 1, 2021.

This opportunity was one I was excited for as I was now able to utilize my administration degree and come back HOME. I grew up in Colfax, WA and spent 18 years in Whitman County before moving to Nampa, ID to attend college and then teach for five years in fifth grade.

In my new assignment, I was working between Franklin and Jefferson Elementary. The early days on the job were spent connecting with staff members, getting familiar with systems in place, and learning more about what my job would entail once school began again. I was eager and hungry to begin a career in school administration in a new place; one that was near and dear to my heart. Now, here we are two years later, and I have now been selected to be an elementary assistant principal. The extra layers of support that these positions add to our staff, students, and families are invaluable. I am excited to continue to work in the Pullman School District supporting the many various members of our Pullman community and school community that I get to work alongside. I want to take this time to introduce myself further and help you get to know me a bit better!

This is my 8th year in education. I grew up in Colfax, WA and participated in my parents’ restaurants from a young age: Top Notch Café and Bulldog Pizza. From six years old, I learned the importance of hard work and was waiting tables before I could even drive. I graduated

te Administrator to Assistant Principal

from Colfax High School and continued my education at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa, ID where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education. I was offered a fifth-grade teaching job at Iowa Elementary in Nampa, ID and spent 2016-2021 teaching fifth grade, which I absolutely loved! During my time teaching, I decided I wanted to go back to school to get my master's degree in educational administration. In October of 2019, I graduated from Grand Canyon University with my degree in administration. I taught for a few more years before making the move to Pullman. In July 2021, I was called back to Whitman County and have spent the past two years in our wonderful community.

My husband and I have both loved being back in Whitman County.

We have our goldendoodle, Maggie, who keeps us very busy, and will add another addition to our family this fall. Ryan and I are expecting our first child, our daughter, in October 2023. We are so blessed with the opportunity to raise a child in such a close-knit, small community.

We recently built a house as well. So, between our dog, our baby on the way, and new house projects, we are thrilled for all the adventures these coming months will bring.

Pullman School District has six cultural beliefs: students first, take action, mutual respect, build together, shared decisions, and cultivate trust. Between working with our students, staff, and families, I have seen this promise in a plethora of ways. I am proud to work in Pullman and I am proud to be a part of a community where we believe in high expectations and work diligently to make sure ALL students learn.

My belief in education is that it gives young people the ability to do whatever they want and to be whoever they want to be. My goal is to continue to support that work as I come alongside our hard-working staff members, our creative and funny students, and our families who partner alongside us. Thank you for the opportunity to continue to serve Pullman Public Schools. I look forward to what the future holds for us all.

Pullman’s Past Comes Alive

PULLMAN DEPOT HERITAGE CENTER NEWS & NOTES

2019 THEN and

NOW 2023

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE(S) – WHAT’S OLD IS NEW AGAIN

One difference is obvious. A new green tile roof replaces the previous red metal roof shown in the 2019 image. But “new” and “old” should be qualified. The new tile roof (with a 75-year warranty) is a replica of the original. Less conspicuous differences include fully restored masonry with important decorative sandstone elements repaired, and bricks freshly cleaned and repointed. And just as the building is under restoration, so is the site. Behind the Depot, invasive weeds are being removed and the hillside is being cultivated with native plant species. It is a remarkable amount of progress in just a few short years!

UTILIZING CURRENT TECHNOLOGY A digital camera mounted to a multirotor drone allows the CMR construction firm to view the roof from above and to track daily progress on the project. Although tile is a traditional building material that must be installed in the traditional manner, current technology like drone imaging can improve the job by promoting communication and documenting compliance. In addition, only a drone can capture dramatic images like those to the right.

HIGH-BUMP RIDGE TERMINAL

HIP STARTER

WITNESSING PROGRESS As seen from the northeast corner of the site, an image series of the south portico illustrates the process of

roof restoration – beginning with tear-off of the old layers including asphalt and red corrugated metal, reinforcement with a sturdy substrate, application of a weatherproof membrane, installation of flashing, and finally, the new green tiles.
