ARLINGTON — Although the year’s first snowfall forced them to push back their plans, Marysville youths still took “a day on, not a day off ” to help out an Arlington woman in need, as part of a broader campaign to honor the life and works of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. On Saturday, Jan. 28, half a dozen teen volunteers from the Marysville YMCA Minority Achievers Program visited the Arlington home of disabled senior Sandee Wynkoop, joining the more than 200 student and adult volunteers to take part in the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service that was organized by the United Way of Snohomish County and had originally been scheduled for Monday, Jan. 16, on this year’s observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. For Jennifer Cabrera and Leticia Aparicio of the Bio-Med Academy at Marysville Getchell High School, this marked their second Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service on behalf of Wynkoop, a 58-year-old who’s undergone multiple surgeries and stays in both hospitals and nursing homes as a result of her degenerative disc disease and osteoporosis since 2009.

“My spine is basically crumbling,” Wynkoop said, as

Students compete in mock trial

By KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The attorneys presenting their cases in Judge Fred Gillings’ courtroom at the Marysville Municipal Court on Thursday, Feb. 2, hadn’t even graduated from high school, but the professionalism and preparation they demonstrated earned them plaudits from not only Gillings, but also the jurors who heard their cases.

Two teams of eighth-grade students from the 10th Street School in Marysville competed against opposing teams of ninth-graders from Archbishop Murphy High School in a YMCA Youth and Government Mock Trial.

Each team of attorneys included its own complement of student witnesses, and all of the students had spent at least the past couple of months memorizing their scripts from the practice cases that they would be presenting before both Gillings and a panel that included actual adult attorneys.

Ximena West, an attorney for 20 years, complimented student attorneys Natasha Flitz and Alan White of 10th Street for their effective techniques at the close of the morning’s mock trial.

the students performed a number of household chores that she once took for granted that she could complete on her own. “The first time these kids came here, I didn’t have any in-home help. I can’t lift my arms above my neck and I have a limited range of motion. It takes me an hour just to make the bed.

Oh, these kids make me feel so good.”

As Cabrera and Aparicio not only folded Wynkoop’s sheets, but also dusted down all the shelves and keepsakes in her bedroom, they reflected on how helping her has made them feel.

“It’s good to see her doing a bit better,” Cabrera said.

“She was having a hard time last year.”

“It feels good to give back to the community like this,” Aparicio said. “When we see her smile, we know we’ve

been able to improve her life in some small way.”

As fellow Bio-Med Academy student Ruby Salcedo cleaned the bathroom and Edgar Carretero of Marysville-Pilchuck High School alternated between sweeping the floors, taking out the trash, moving heavy items into the outdoor storage shed and drilling hanging posts into the walls to place photographs for Wynkoop, Marysville YMCA Latin Minority Achievers Program Coordinator Ada Garza explained that her teen volunteers make return visits to these seniors and people with disabilities outside of the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service.

“We’ve gone back to several of these homes for their birthdays, with cakes and balloons in hand,” Garza said. “We want them to know we’re thinking about them during the rest of the year. If we can brighten their

spirits, why not?”

“These are the best kids ever,” Wynkoop said. “There’s all this junk in the news about the bad kids, but the good kids don’t get nearly as much credit. These kids are doing more than they have to, and they deserve as much recognition for it as we can give them.”

Dennis Smith, the CEO of the United Way of Snohomish County, explained to the 181 high school students and 36 adult volunteers who turned out to help out seniors and people with disabilities that day that he was 14 years old when King gave his “I have a dream” speech, and 19 years old when King was assassinated, putting him in the same age range as most them when King did much of his most well-known work.

“King said that it made one great to reach out to others with love and service,” Smith said. “Every one of you is great for doing this.”

TRIAL FROM PAGE 1 your statutes,” West said.

“Alan, the way you stuck with that one witness with your questions about the tires, and didn’t let it confuse you, was really good.”

All the mock trial jurors that morning agreed the two sets of student attorneys had done their homework and knew the cases, but suggested that they work on their presentation skills a bit. At the same time that Mitchell Pearson and Laurie Turral took care to commend the students for feats of public speaking that the two adults doubted they would have been able to accomplish when they were the same age as the students, the two jurors joined their peers in encouraging the kids to relax and review their own performances beforehand.

In spite of the praise they received and the time they spent preparing for the mock trial, Flitz and White wished they’d devoted even more than their estimated one to two hours after school every weekday on studying up for it, although they also agreed with the jurors that their public speaking skills could stand improvement as well.

“You have to be able to think on your feet,” Flitz said. “I definitely need to practice talking more.”

“You have to learn all the proper procedures, so that your arguments won’t get overruled,” White said.

“My sister did mock trial too, so I feel like I’m carrying on her tradition when we go up against the high school.”

White found the rules of evidence fascinating, while Flitz admitted that she learned a great deal about “how a trial is set up in the formalities.”

Jake Jones, an Archbishop Murphy student attorney who took part in last year’s mock trial as a student witness for 10th Street, credited this year’s mock trial case with educating him on bicycling laws, as well as legal techniques such as asking questions that won’t invite sustained objections and controlling witnesses during cross-examinations.

Marysville’s James DeLazzari, a 10th Street teacher who supervised the students at their mock trial, echoed the students’ own assessment that taking part in such proceedings drives home the differences between trials on TV and in real life.

“There’s no silver bullet,” DeLazzari chuckled. “Both

“The legal system is, in fact, a system, which means that juries can only make decisions based on what you tell them.”

James DeLazzari 10th Street School sides have access to all the evidence. The legal system is, in fact, a system, which means that juries can only make decisions based on what you tell them. These kids have learned that, as an attorney, you have to assume a jury is a blank slate, and to teach them how to decide in your favor.”

“I came into this mock trial case cold, and both sides did well at making me understand this issue,” Gillings said at the close of the morning’s mock trial.

DeLazzari added that he believes putting such a learning experience in a performance-based context inspires students to invest every effort into it.

“Being able to perform makes kids reach the next level,” DeLazzari said.

“They step up to do their best.”

Peterson explained that this coordinated collection drive will gift formal evening gowns to several deserving young ladies in the area who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford to go to their proms.

The exchange aims to gather gently used evening gowns from a number of women and organizations throughout the community.

“If you know of a young prom-goer who may need a dress, she and others are invited to attend the Prom Dress Exchange,” Peterson said. “Girls do not have to prove any need or be from any particular school or city, and there’s no charge to attend or get a dress at the exchange.”

Peterson noted that private donations to the Arlington Kids’ Kloset would be greatly appreciated to help offset the costs of cleaning, altering and storing the gowns.

ARLINGTON — Arlington and Marysville businesses are teaming up to help young women in need dress their best for a special night.

“A Beautiful Addiction” Tanning Salon in Arlington and Trusty Threads in Marysville are serving as donation drop-off locations for the Prom Dress Exchange and Fashion Show taking place on Saturday, March 3, in Arlington.

“Prom may be a high school milestone, but the pomp and circumstance surrounding the dance doesn’t come cheap, as many parents can testify,” said Emily Peterson of “A Beautiful Addiction.”

“We’ve partnered with local volunteers looking to cut prom costs for struggling families by hosting a prom dress exchange program, and by providing discounts on prom-related services offered by our local businesses.”

Don’t forget about the municipal court

I

n talking with residents about various programs and services provided by city government in Marysville, you’re more likely to hear about the work of the Legislative branch (City Council) that passes laws and appropriates spending, and the Executive branch (Mayor and Administration) that is responsible for city services and enforcing the laws.

What you hear about less often is our Judicial branch of government that interprets laws, representing the third corner of our system of government at the federal, state and local level more commonly known as separation of powers, as framed in the U.S. Constitution.

In this column, I want to give you a glimpse into the bustling Marysville Municipal Court system. Our court system has come a long ways since the days when part-time Justice of the Peace Don Beaman held court in a small meeting room, caseloads were less than a quarter of what they are today, and it was against the law to hitch your horse to a post in the downtown business district.

Today’s Municipal Court at 1015 State Ave. opened in 2007. The court is fortunate to be presided over by two highcaliber judges who hear cases from the bench not only for our jurisdiction, but for the cities of Arlington and Lake Stevens as well. Judges Fred Gillings and Lorrie Towers are dedicated to administering justice in a fair, efficient and timely manner. They are supported by an administrative and clerical staff led by Court Administrator Suzanne Elsner, as well as a

Probation Officer and two Custody Officers onsite who administer the Alternatives to Sentencing program for low-risk offenders.

As a court of limited jurisdiction in Washington State, Marysville’s court only has jurisdiction over gross misdemeanors, misdemeanors and infractions. The court can also issue domestic violence protection orders and no-contact orders, and anti-harassment orders if established by local court rule.

Contrary to what some think, the court does not hear civil or small claims cases — you have to go to a county-level court to file them.

Marysville’s court has more than enough activity, with caseloads on the rise. The court saw a 9 percent increase in total filings in 2011 to 11,087, compared with 10,263 filings in 2010. Marysville cases accounted for about 70 percent of all filings, with Lake Stevens 18 percent and Arlington 12 percent respectively.

When court dockets are busy, that means a heavy caseload for our City Prosecutors, too. Last year, two prosecutors processed 3,289 misdemeanor and gross misdemeanor cases. The court held 3,159 arraignments, 3,237 infractions and 11 jury trials.

Preparing Marysville’s students

M

arysville’s eight high schools prepare students for graduation, college and life.

All students today need to graduate from high school and be college and career ready. High school drop outs can no longer count on a family wage job. Sixty-seven percent of family wage jobs require some college.

Even the military and the trades now require high school graduation and essentially the same skills as colleges.

What is Marysville doing to prepare students for future success? Each of our eight, yes eight, high schools is organized around one of the high interest themes that match growth industries in Snohomish County. Each of our eight high schools is small — none is larger than 1,200 students — so we can engage students in a com-

GUEST OPINION DR. LARRY NYLAND munity of administrators, teachers, and support staff that know and care about them.

Each spring, 8th grade students with their parents select their top three high school choices — options that excite them, keep them interested in school and connect academic learning to the real world. Each high school prepares students for graduation — and beyond. They also provide students

with courses to prepare for a four-year college, community college, technical or trade school, or to join the workforce.

We are building community partnerships and internships that make work relevant to students. Pathways of Choice has Agriculture and Auto Mechanic partnerships and students can earn their certificates of mastery through local job shadows/internships.

Arlington Public Schools is fortunate to employee a very talented, experienced, caring and well-educated workforce, which is a critical component to student success. Arlington Public Schools employs 557 staff members, 302 who are certificated and 255 who are classified staff members. What do the terms “certificated” and “classified” mean? A “certificated” position requires a license from the state of Washington. Certificated employees are teachers, counselors, speech pathologists, principals, etc. All other positions are considered classi-

GUEST OPINION MIKE JOHNSON fied positions such as para-educators, clerical staff, instructional aides, custodians, transportation and food service staff. Districts often report staff as Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) staff.

Since not all employees are full-time, using an FTE allows for a better way to compare and contrast staffing levels.

Arlington employs 438.2 FTE staff members.

Arlington Public Schools’ certificated teachers are highly educated

with 72.5 percent holding a Master’s Degree. We are privileged to have 25 teachers who have attained National Board Certification, which is a very high number for a district of our size.

“National Board Certification signifies that a teacher or school counselor is accomplished, having met challenging professional standards as evidenced by performance-based assessments” at the national level. We are proud of those who have attained this recognition. We are proud to report, all of our teachers who teach core content are identified as being Highly Qualified as defined by the federal No Child Left Behind Act.

Why go to all of this extra effort? Our district mission is 100 percent â&#x20AC;&#x201D; every student â&#x20AC;&#x201D; proficient in reading and math, graduating on time and prepared for college and life. To accomplish this, the school board has set on-going goals â&#x20AC;&#x201D; focused on student achievement leading to ontime graduation, and college/ career readiness. Real-world application through high school choice helps accomplish those goals.

Did you know ... we have

The Municipal Court also houses a Probation Officer that administers programs that provide pre-sentence investigations, supervision and probationary treatment for misdemeanant offenders.

The officer can also make sentencing recommendations to the court, including appropriate treatment (i.e., drug and alcohol counseling) that an offender should receive, or alternatives to sentencing options such as Electronic Home Monitoring. Impressively, our Probation

Arlington Public Schools makes effective use of staff inservice days. Principals and Administrators organize professional development activities which are aligned with the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Strategic Plan to improve learning. Recently, we have focused on building effective Professional Learning Communities and developing a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum within the District.

Maintaining a safe learning environment is essential for students and staff as we focus on improving in the classroom. The HR Department recently implemented an online program that delivers instruction, notifications and tracks all of our required staff trainings, such as HIV/ bloodborne pathogens, harassment, personal safety, and more. We are able to do this more consistently and efficiently than in the past and staff are more prepared and informed.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unfortunate. Jury duty is an important feature of civic participation in our democracy, a citizenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chance to speak for the community, deliberate and make fair decisions in a judicial system that couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t function without it.

Dodging jury duty or ignoring a summons can have real consequences for court operations, and the individual summoned.

As Judge Gillings says, surveys have consistently found that people believe strongly that jury duty should be fulfilled,

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Vote Yes on the school levy As a former Finance Director of the Arlington School District and prior Mayor of Arlington I would like to take this opportunity to remind our Arlington School District citizens that on Tuesday, February 14th a Replacement 4-Year Maintenance and Operations Levy will be on the election ballot. The current four-Year M & O levy will expire at the end of this year.

The passing of this levy is extremely important as it represents 26 percent to 28 percent of the budget each year. These funds will be used to support Technology, Curriculum, Staff Development, Special Programs (never funded totally by the state), Professional Development, Academics Transportation, and Extra Curricular Programs.

This M & O levy is essential to maintain the high level of education that the Arlington School district is currently providing our students.

I applaud the School Board for presenting a levy that basically is driven by the same tax as the prior levy. Good job! It is important that we all be good stewards of our taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money.

This M & O Replacement Levy is integral to the operations of the School District and affects the entire community, young and old. Please vote Yes. Margaret Larson Arlington

Brown named publisher of Globe, Times served as general manager of The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times, guiding the two papers through many innovative and lucrative changes.

“We strive to be as objective and unbiased as possible, while keeping our content clear and concise,” Brown said. “The papers that have stayed strong in this industry have had a hyper-local focus. While other papers cover regional, state and national news, we’re the source of local people’s news about their own community, in both print and online through our website.”

With a career that’s included a six-year stint in

the U.S. Air Force, which he left in 1980 as a sergeant in Strategic Command, before entering the media as in side sales representative with Trader Publications and the Employment Guide in June of 1996, Brown is no stranger to the challenges of a new job, and indeed, he looks forward to exploring his new role.

“I love learning and applying ideas in a tangible fashion,” Brown said.

“Newsprint is in my blood, and I love seeing ideas become reality and receiving feedback.”

To that end, Brown welcomes community members to contribute their own ideas, whether for regular

MARYSVILLE — Paul Brown began his tenure as publisher of The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times on Jan. 3, but he’s no stranger to weekly newsprint publications.

More importantly, Brown doesn’t want to be a stranger to the communities that his publications serve, which is why he touted the continuation and expansion of The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times’ ongoing focus on hyper-local news coverage.

“I want to bring more features into our special sections and more content into

our papers that’s pertinent to our communities,” Brown said. “Right out of the gate, I’ve been looking to get more actively involved in the community myself.

MARYSVILLE — Last year, 2,231 Snohomish County working families had their taxes prepared for free at a United Way Tax Preparation Site, saving an estimated $368,000 in tax preparation fees. Approximately 84 percent of them received an average refund of $2,189, for a total of more than $4.1 million, including $1.1 million in Earned Income Tax Credits.

The tax sites have opened throughout Snohomish County with IRS-certified volunteers. At some of the sites, at particular times, volunteers will be ready to help people in Tagalog, Mandarin, Khmer, Spanish, Japanese, Russian, Chichewa and Vietnamese.

LAKEWOOD — The Arlington Chapter of Dollars For Scholars will stage a fundraising event at Boston’s Gourmet Pizza Restaurant in Lakewood from 5-8 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 21.

During this event, Boston’s will award Dollars For Scholars 10 percent of all food orders placed by both dine-in and take-out patrons.

The Arlington Chapter of Dollars For Scholars has been helping students pay for college for more than a decade, but in the current struggling economy, its members have acknowledged the challenges of meeting the needs of everyone who applies for a scholarship.

“In 2009, we awarded 106 scholarships worth just over $100,000, but by 2011, we had only $50,000 to give,” Arlington Dollars For Scholars Chapter President Sandie Cooper said. “Our donors are unbelievably generous, but our board members want to raise as much money for students as we possibly can.”

Every year, the Arlington Dollars For Scholars Chapter hosts a Bingo challenge in October.

“This has been our big event of the year, but now our goal is to exceed the amount of money we’ve raised in the past,” Cooper said. “We are all too aware of the rising costs of college that every student now faces.”

With this goal in mind, Cooper urged supporters of the Arlington Dollars For Scholars Chapter to pack Boston’s on Feb. 21 to make their fundraiser a success.

“We invite everyone who has benefitted from our organization, and everyone who might do so in the future, to come out and support us,” Cooper said.

Take-out orders and all food ordered at the restaurant will be factored into the profits, but alcohol and food ordered in the bar are not part of the program.

“Let’s hope lots of folks decide on pizza and a soda or two for dinner on Feb. 21,” Cooper chuckled.

Lakewood basketball holds Senior Night Cougars outrun Coupeville for a 95-36 victory

1IPUP DPVSUFTZ PG 3BOEZ 0SEPOF[

Lakewood senior Caleb Graves drives to the basket during the Cougars’ 95-36 victory over Coupeville Jan. 31.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood boys basketball team honored its seniors Jan. 31 with a near record-setting performance by handing Coupeville a 95-36 drubbing.

In the Senior Night game the Cougars lit up the scoreboard for 95 points, just four short of the school record of 99.

“We wanted to honor our seniors and let them play that whole first quarter,” said Lakewood head coach Matt Hart.

“At the end of the first quarter, it was 22-6 which was a nice way to start off the game.”

Starting the game for the Cougars were seniors Caleb Graves, Tyler Duitsman, Dustin Stanton, Zach Smith and Thomas Raught. Senior Tyler Farrell, the team’s second leading scorer, did not play due to an injury.

“After the end of the first quarter, the underclassmen came in and they also played very well,” said Hart.

Although the team played well on both ends of the court, Hart credited his team’s defense and rebounding for the high score.

“We actually didn’t shoot the ball very well, considering,” said

Hart. “We played pretty good defense, and we were able to get a ton of rebounds and those rebounds were converted into layups which really helped us get our point total up.”

Lakewood outscored Coupeville 24-17 in the second quarter to head into halftime with a 46-23 lead.

“We pressed them in the first half and in the second half we didn’t press them at all, we sat back in a zone defense,” said Hart.

Lakewoood continued to dominate in the third quarter, outscoring Coupeville 28-6 for a 74-29 lead heading into the final quarter.

“We got into the fourth quarter and the guys really started talking about it [the point record]. That was kind of their goal at that point, to try to get the record,” said Hart. “Unfortunately, we shot 10-for-25 from the freethrow line or else we would have had it.”

Despite not getting the record, Hart said he was very pleased with the team’s performance.

“It was funny, it was Senior Night but our freshmen stole the show,” said Hart.

“Freshman Paul Coleman led the team with 23 points which was a season high for him,” said Hart. “Ryan Alford, our freshman point guard, did not have a

great night statistically, but he is the one who started a lot of our fast breaks and kept that tempo going for us. He had nine assists as well.”

The Cougars grabbed 14 steals in the game with Graves and Raught both getting four.

Duitsman was an impressive 6-for-8 from beyond the threepoint line.

“Justin Peterson had 17 rebounds and a lot of those came in the second half,” said Hart.

“He’s the quarterback on our football team so he has a pretty good arm. There were many times when he would grab a rebound and throw the ball the length of the floor for a layup. It was pretty fun to watch.”

Hart said the victory was a nice way to end the seniors’ final home game.

“It was a good way for those seniors to go out on a high note and playing well,” Hart said. “It was definitely one of the better games defensively. Holding Coupeville to 36 points was a great effort. We’ve had many glimpses of this type of play many times during the season, but this was the first time we played that way for four quarters.”

With a 5-7 league record and a 6-12 overall record the Cougars are eliminated from post-season play.

Local soccer players sign letters of intent

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

EVERETT — Marysville-Pilchuck High School’s Rebecca Lentz and Lakewood High School’s Miranda Head were all smiles as they became the latest student athletes to sign their names on the dotted line on Wednesday, Feb. 1.

Lentz and Head are among the 12 members of the Everett-based Washington Rush Soccer Club U18 Girls team to earn soccer scholarships to Division 1, 2 and 3 colleges, including conferences from the Pac 12, Big10, WCC and GNAC. The two girls joined those other players in signing letters of intent that evening, in time for National Letter of Intent Day, at the North County Youth Soccer Association Office in Everett. Goalkeeper Head signed on with California State University at San Bernardino for Division 2 in the California Collegiate Athletic Association Conference, while defender Lentz signed on with Gonzaga University for Division 1 in the West Coast Conference.

Ben Somoza, coach of the Washington Rush G93 Girls Soccer Team, touted its overall record of 22-2-2 for the 2011-12 season,

and noted that many of the team members have been playing together since they were 10 years old. He additionally observed how unusual it is for 12 members out of an 18-member team to receive such a distinction.

“These girls can be a handful, but they’re a lot of fun to coach,” Somoza said. “I think a lot of people might not realize how hard they’ve worked to get to this point.”

Tom and Debbie Lentz, parents of Rebecca, likewise deemed the evening’s signing the culmination of years of effort, although they hastened to add that Rebecca, whose father was her coach for a number of years, hasn’t simply been aiming for the goal of signing a letter of intent since she started playing at the age of 4.

“She has a love of the game,” Debbie Lentz said. “She’s just been fortunate to play for the right team and have everything else happen for this opportunity to play at a higher level.”

Rebecca Lentz kept active in both soccer and basketball in high school, and looks to be majoring in criminology and forensic science in college. Her most recent challenge has been to bounce back from a torn ACL this fall, but she credited the support of family

and teammates like her best friend, Lauren Luke, with keeping her enthused.

“I always wanted to play with my friends, so I’m glad that I can do this as long as I can,” Rebecca Lentz said.

“She’s just as accomplished off the field as on it,” Debbie Lentz said.

Bill and Jody Head, parents of Miranda, agreed that her soccer playing represented a long road from when she started at the age of 3, which required commitment from both Miranda and the rest of her family.

“She didn’t miss a year,” Bill Head said.

“We’ve had to balance soccer with church and family time. She doesn’t work at a job, because we wanted that time with her.”

“We’ve gotten close to a lot of the other players’ families,” Jody Head said. “We’ve developed relationships through shared bonding experiences.”

Miranda Head, who’s currently considering a child psychology major, credited her best friend Sadie Hitsky with getting her into soccer, as well as Rebecca Lentz’s father with starting and coaching the soccer team that kept Miranda involved in the sport when she turned 10. She also cited another coach, Mark Boyes, with serving as her inspiration to press on through adversity.

Marysville-Pilchuck High School’s Rebecca Lentz and Lakewood High School’s Miranda Head, left, were among the Washington Rush soccer players to sign letters of intent.

“I’ve met so many of my friends through soccer,” Miranda Head said. “As a goalkeeper, the fact that I’m not in direct competition with anyone can make it difficult for me to motivate myself, but my teammates are all strong motivators. I’ve never burned out on this sport.”

Just as Miranda Head thanked her family, so too did Jody Head describe her daughter as “an all-around wonderful girl.”

NEWS BRIEFS Police investigating armed robbery

From left, Lakewood High School Hi-Q faculty advisor Jeff Sowards, team members Michaela Boyd, Sara Newman, Lauren Burch and Ryan Whitehead, and faculty advisor Mike Fellows.

Local Hi-Q teams compete kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

EVERETT â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Arlington and Lakewood high school Hi-Q teams will once again be testing their intellectual mettle, against each other and 11 other Snohomish and Island county high school teams, during the 36th year of the region-wide academic competition run locally by Everett Community College.

While the Arlington High School Hi-Q team, which has won Hi-Q six times since the competition started in 1976, is still looking to bounce back from its third-place finish in 2010, the Lakewood High School Hi-Q team has yet to win its first Hi-Q trophy.

In each competition, three local high school teams will face off by answering questions from 13 categories, and points will be accumulated throughout the three-monthlong season to determine which teams will advance to the 2012 Hi-Q championship play-offs.

While a few members of each of the two schoolsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; teams have their own academic specialties â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Arlington High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Robert Kephart in math, Kyle Kilmer in Shakespeare and Spencer Lajoie in sports, and Lakewood High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ryan Whitehead in math and Lauren Burch in history and literature â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both sets of students echoed Burchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assessment that no one student should be indispensable in any subject, given the breadth of material with which all the Hi-Q team members need to be familiar. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to show up every day ready to work hard and remember,â&#x20AC;? said Hannah Mendro, a member of the AHS Hi-Q team and daughter of Ben Mendro, one of that teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two faculty advisors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You try and overlap your studies with your teammates,â&#x20AC;?

Burch said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last year, it was really difficult because I was having to read up on all these

subjects that I hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had classes on yet.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can never be totally prepared for a competition,â&#x20AC;? said Jane Joselow, the other faculty advisor for the AHS Hi-Q team.

Despite the long hours of studying on their own time, both sets of students described the challenge of Hi-Q as fun. Like Hannah Mendro, LHS Hi-Q team members Michaela Boyd and Sara Newman appreciate the familial sense of fellowship that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve developed with their teammates. Newman also agreed with Mendro and Kilmer that preparing for the competitions has made them more well-rounded academically and personally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really love learning random things,â&#x20AC;? Newman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Plus, it gives me something to do during the off-season for sports.â&#x20AC;?

LHS Hi-Q faculty advisors Jeff Sowards and Mike Fellows agreed that Hi-Q students demonstrate how exceptional they are by their willingness to take on the extra work required to prepare for Hi-Q competitions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very lucky to work with some neat, sharp kids,â&#x20AC;?

Fellows said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some students do the minimum to get certain grades, but these kids are pushing themselves.â&#x20AC;?

The AHS Hi-Q team will host the Feb. 14 competition, and compete again on March 9. The LHS Hi-Q team will host the Feb. 28 competition, and compete on March 12.

TULALIP â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Marysville police are investigating the armed robbery of a 25-yearold Tulalip woman that occurred on the evening of Wednesday, Feb. 1.

At around 8:30 p.m., the woman, who requires the use of a wheelchair, was putting the chair into her vehicle when she was approached by a male suspect who pointed a handgun at her and demanded money.

She told the suspect she had no money. The suspect observed her purse sitting on the front seat, grabbed it and ran. The victim was knocked to the ground during the robbery but was not injured as a result. Her two young children were in the vehicle during the robbery.

As the suspect began to run away, he was joined by a second unknown suspect.

With the assistance of a Snohomish County K9 team, officers were able to track the suspects for a short time but eventually lost the scent and were unable to locate them.

The first suspect concealed his face below the nose during the robbery. He was described as a white male, about 5 feet, 7 inches tall and 150 pounds. He was wearing blue jeans and a black hooded sweatshirt. He had facial acne and it appeared he had a shaved head. The second suspect was also male, wearing blue jeans and a black

sweatshirt.

The Marysville Police Department is asking for the publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help in identifying the suspects responsible for this crime. Anyone who may have information is asked to call 360-363-8326.

Marysville Fire District receives grant MARYSVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Marysville Fire District has been awarded a $15,000 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency for operational equipment as part of the Assistance to Firefighter Grant.

The AFG program awards grants to firefighters, emergency response personnel and first responders throughout the nation to enhance response capabilities and to protect the health and safety of first respond-

ers and the citizens in their communities more effectively. AFG provides resources for training, first responder health and safety programs, and response equipment and vehicles.

The grant money will be used to purchase testing equipment for maintaining self-contained breathing apparatus, to ensure that the fire districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s SCBA is working properly.

Eighty percent of the money, or $12,000, will come from FEMA, while the remaining 20 percent, or $3,000, will be the responsibility of the fire district.

The purchase of this new equipment is intended to allow the Marysville Fire District to help keep its firefighters safer through improved technology and increased safety standards.

Marysville hands out diversity award meeting. “We are very fortunate to have Marvetta as a citizen truly invested in making Marysville a better and more diverse community.”

Nehring said that during a conversation in 2010, he and Toler talked about the need

to promote diversity more in Marysville, which led to forming the committee.

“I appreciated her tact and constructive approach to the matter, and she came with solutions,” he added.

Toler has been active on the 22-member committee since its inception.

The city’s new Leader in Diversity Award recognizes a community member, business or organization that displays longstanding, continuing and exceptional leadership in fostering diversity in the community and society.

The award is also intended to highlight the contributions of those who advance the cause of inclusivity in ways that foster positive changes to achieve equality of opportunities for all residents, while creating a harmonious environment.

The Diversity Advisory Committee advises the Mayor on policy matters involving the community’s many cultures, and identifying issues concerning diversity and inclusion to ensure that the diverse character of the growing city is represented in deci-

sion-making processes.

The committee recently completed its two-year Diversity Work Plan after a year of meetings. The work plan serves as a set of priorities, goals and recommendations for increasing diversity in Marysville, and keeping the dialogue on inclusiveness going, with suggested actions to meet priorities and goals.

Developing the Leader in Diversity Award was one of those actions.

“I believe Marysville has much to gain by becoming a more inclusive, welcoming community that values diversity,” Nehring said. “So does Marvetta, and so do her fellow committee members. It is more than just the right thing to do. Diversity will enrich our community.”

In addition to her continued involvement on the committee, Toler is: ■ A member of the Snohomish County Citizens for Human Rights Coalition.

■ Active in the Alaska/ Oregon/Washington State Area Conference NAACP. ■ A member of the Everett Community College Community Diversity Advisory Committee.

■ A past member of the city of Everett’s Diversity Advisory Committee and the Prosperity Partnership Minority Economic Development Council.

Toler also served with the Marysville School District Board Recruitment Steering Committee and Citizens Planning Committee

CATHOLIC

It really is not important that you are happy with your religion, what is important is that God is happy with your religion.

Are you tired of all the hype and materialism found in so many religious groups these days? God has already shown us what true religion is. At the Smokey Point church of Christ we are committed to the open study and honest application of Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s word. It may not be entertaining but it sure brings a rest from the burden of sin. Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that the whole point of religion? Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talk about it. 360-939-2080

Loren Kraetz and Susan Walde will show pictures and speak about schools such as Kent Prairie Elementary, whose original location was closer to the current Cascade Valley Hospital, as well as the first school in Arlington, in Mildred Teagarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s store, which later became the Haller school.

The Garfield, Lincoln and Roosevelt schools, as well as the 1908 high school which burned in 1934, will also be covered at the free presentation, along with the 1936 high school and the latest high school.

How 85% Of Patients Eliminated Numbness, Tingling, or Sharp Pains If you’re suffering from nerve problems in the arms and legs, you must read about a clinical study that showed..

N

umbness, tingling, and pain is an extremely annoying problem.

It may come and go...interrupts your sleep... and even makes your arm or legs feel weak at times. Maybe you’ve even been to other doctors and they claim all the tests indicate you should feel fine.

If You Read Nothing Else, Read This: More than 20 million Americans suffer from peripheral neuropathy, a problem caused by damage to the nerves that supply your arms and legs.

This painful condition interferes with your body’s ability to transmit messages to your muscles, skin, joints, or internal organs. If ignored or mistreated, neuropathy can lead to irreversible health conditions.

Why not get help by those trained to correct the major cause of peripheral neuropathy. Read the full facts on this page.

More Pills Are Not The Solution A common treatment for many nerve problems is the ‘take some pills and wait and see’ method.

While this may be necessary for temporary relief of severe symptoms, using them long term is no way to live. Some of the more common drugs given include pain pills, antiseizure mediations, and anti-depressants -- all of which have serious side effects.

The Likely Cause Of Your Problem My name is Dr. Scott Peseau, owner of Arlington Spine Center. Our practice has been helping people with neuropathy and nerve problems for more than 25 years.

Often neuropathy is caused by a degenerating spine pressing on the nerve roots. This can happen in any of the vertebral joints from the neck all the way down to the tail bone.

The good news is that chiropractic treatments have proven effective in helping to remove the pressure on the nerves.

By using gentle techniques, I’m able to release the pressure that has built up on the nerve. This allows the nerve to heal and the symptoms to go away.

Here’s What Our Patients Say……

“Before seeing Dr. Peseau, I had severe neuropathy in my left leg and foot including numbness and tingling. I had foot drop where I could not lift my foot and had to use a walker to get around. Now after just a few weeks of treatment, my leg is much better, the feeling has returned and the foot drop is almost 100% gone! I can walk a lot better and farther than before. Dr. Peseau genuinely wants you to be better and he help to restore your quality of life. I am getting better each day under Dr. Peseau’s expert care and direction! Trudy Pater, Security Guard “I had a severe neuropathy in my leg after an amusement park accident that trapped my leg and injured the nerve and tissues. After treatment with Dr. Peseau I feel a lot better and have regained much of the feeling in my leg. I am now able to to stand and walk without much pain!!! Keep up the great work and I thank you for all you have helped me with. I will be recommending this clinic to friends and family in the future! Daniel Jordan For example, numerous studies have proven chiropractic’s effectiveness in helping nerve conditions.

Patients showed an 85.5% resolution of the nerve symptoms after only 9 chiropractic treatments. - Journal of Chiropractic Medicine 2008 With chiropractic care, patients had “significant improvement in perceived comfort and function, nerve conduction and finger sensation overall.” – JMPT 1998 “Significant increase in grip strength and normalization of motor and sensory latencies were noted. Orthopedic tests were negative.

Symptoms dissipated.” – JMPT 1994 What these studies mean is that you could soon be enjoying life...without those aggravating nerve problems.

Could This Be Your Solution?

It’s time for you to find out if chiropractic will be your neuropathy solution.

For 10 days only, $19 will get you all the services I normally charge new patients $230 for!

What does this offer include? Everything.

Take a look at what you will receive: r An in-depth consultation about your health and well-being where I will listen… really listen…to the details of your case.

Don’t let numbness, tingling and pain hold you back from enjoying life.

r A complete neuromuscular examination… ($75 value). r A full set of specialized x-rays to determine if a spinal problem is contributing to your pain or symptoms… ($80 value). r A thorough analysis of your exam and x-ray findings ($75 value) so we can start mapping out your plan to being pain free. r I’ll answer your most probing questions about nerve problems and how chiropractic can help.

Until February 20, 2012 you can get everything I’ve listed here for only $19. The normal price for this type of evaluation including x-rays is $230, so you’re saving a considerable amounby taking me up on this offer. Call 360-474-9900.

We can get you scheduled for your consultation, exam and x-rays as soon as there’s an opening.

Our office is located just off the located at 215 E. 3rd St , in Arlington. When you call, tell the receptionist you’d like to come in for the Nerve Evaluation so she can get you on the schedule and make sure you receive proper credit for this special offer.

Sincerely, Dr. Scott Pesuau, D.C. P.S. Remember, you only have until February 20th to reserve an appointment at this significant discount. Why suffer for years in misery?

That’s no way to live, not when there could be an easy solution to your problem.

P.P.S. Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally, but physically feeling held back from life because your arms or legs hurt – and the pain just won’t go away!
