Iris Meyer said the hotel is fantastic. “It’s finally here,” she said. “They worked really hard for this. My dad would have loved to see it.”

Stephanie Blount said she does a lot of traveling, to Las Vegas up to three times a year, for example, and she said the hotel is top rate.

“The decor is both modern and rustic,” she said, adding she enjoyed the furnishings, artwork and photographs of nature in the nearby area. “It doesn’t feel like a casino hotel to me.”

erations of the tribe who now live in Alaska and came down just for the opening.

O’Neil wanted to emphasize that all of the construction is done not only at the hotel but also in the surrounding area, so traffic is no longer a problem.

“We had construction on top of construction,” he said.

“It’s easier access now.”

One item that has not been built yet is a pool, which will go in to the west of the casino. But that work won’t start until spring or summer, O’Neil said.

The hotel offers a meeting room for up to 16 people.

There is also a workout room, although O’Neil is still waiting on the weights.

The tribe had around 30 employees in the mid-1990s.

Now, tribal administration employs 250 and the casino, gas station and smoke shop employ another 500. The casino added 57 employees to staff the hotel.

Toy stories brighten holidays for children in Arlington

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Sara McCarter has two daughters, ages 7 and 9.

She and her husband are both unemployed, and while he’s been looking for work, health issues have prevented her from doing the same.

Although they receive a small amount from her Supplemental Security Income, they’ve lost their house and have

been looking for other lodging.

“If it wasn’t for this, I wouldn’t be able to give my girls any Christmas at all,” McCarter said of Operation Christmas Hope, a joint project of the Arlington American Legion and Arlington Community Food Bank.

McCarter’s family is one of more than 600 that was referred to the toy store in the Legion Post Hall on

Dec. 18 by not only the food bank, but also Arlington Kids’ Kloset, the Apple Preschool, the Department of Social and Health Services, and the Darrington Family Support and Resource Center.

“We’ve had lots of people this year who were both directly and indirectly affected by the Oso slide in some way,” SEE TOYS, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON – “The World’s Friendliest Casino” at Angels of the Winds north of Arlington now has “The World’s Friendliest Hotel.”

That is according to Jeanine Russell, one of the Stillaguamish tribal members who stayed at the $27 million hotel on its opening night Dec. 15. “The employees are so accommodating,” she said. “And it’s absolutely gorgeous.”

General Manager Travis O’Neil said things went so well that the hotel planned to open for business Friday, Dec. 19. Cost of the 125 rooms over five floors ranges from $114 to $279 a night.

LaVaun Tatro, whose house used to be where the smoke shop now is, said it was an honor to stay there opening night. “We’ve come a long way,” she said of the tribe. “I’m very proud.

Everything is so nice.”

“Those were their houses” that were torn down to make room for the hotelcasino, he said.

The Stillaguamish got into the gaming business later than most tribes, opening the casino 10 years ago. The tribe didn’t have enough land for a casino until the tribal council decided to clear out housing in the early 2000s where the casino, hotel, gas station and smoke shop now sit.

O’Neil said the hotel is ready, except for some minor decor additions. So while online reservations won’t start until Jan. 2, 2015, the staff is prepared to go.

Only one staff member is from the tribe. O’Neil said he would like more, but they all have other careers as the Stillaguamish were late joining the gaming industry.

The 280 tribal members are spread out all over the country. Blount, Russell and Meyer represent three gen-

TOYS FROM Page 1 said Tina Davis, one of the coordinators of Operation Christmas Hope.

The community has responded to this level of need with strong support.

Every shopper, regardless how many kids they have, is not allowed to leave without taking a board game and a bobble-head doll, and they’re all given a chance to enter a raffle for three children’s bicycles that were donated.

“People love to buy things for little kids, but we usually have to shop for the older ones,” Davis said.

“Fortunately, we got plenty of gift cards to do the job.”

In addition to Arlington Hardware & Lumber donating $600 in gift cards to its own store, people have bought gift cards for Starbucks, Target and Bed, Bath & Beyond, for an estimated total of $1,000.

“When I was fourteen, my dad was diagnosed with cancer, and back then, it took months for Social Security to start,” Davis said. “That year, our family received boxes full of food and gifts. When the opportunity opened up for me to coordinate this event last year, I took it, because I wanted to give back. If we can show these kids that

the community cares about them, maybe they’ll do the same.”

While Operation Christmas Hope has received donations of $1,500 from Walmart and $1,000 from Union Bank, Kathy Marquez has been one of its largest individual donors for 15 years. This year, as she did last year, Marquez will be donating around $7,000.

“It just breaks my heart,” Marquez said. “I always want every kid to have a toy for Christmas. I moved up north a few years ago, but I lived in Arlington for years.

It’s a small community, so it’s harder to get donations here.”

Santa shows just how cool he is at the Holiday Tour of Lights, which runs the next two weekends.

Light show draws hundreds

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Hundreds of families turned out for the first weekend of this year’s Holiday Tour of Lights at the Cedarcrest Golf Course Dec. 12-13.

High winds saw the first day cancelled Dec. 11.

The Holiday Tour of Lights returns to the Cedarcrest Golf Course from 6-9 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 18, and the Fridays and Saturdays of Dec. 19-20 and 26-27.

For Chris Strovas, the light show has become a family tradition.

His six kids enjoyed their first outing so much last year that they were joined by nieces, nephews and grandparents this year.

“Beyond the fact that

“This way, they weren’t bored with waiting.”

Bradi Conner the kids all love the lights, it’s something fun we can do together, as a family,” Strovas said.

“We can all look forward to coming out, enjoying hot cocoa and roasting marshmallows before we go.”

The golf course served free cups of hot chocolate, as its fire pit bustled with attendees making their own s’mores, which Marysville mom Bradi Conner appreciated as she and her four kids waited in line.

“This way, they weren’t bored with waiting,” said Conner, who first heard

about the event when she attended the Sept. 13 Touch-A-Truck, another Marysville tradition.

“Everyone’s been really nice. If it wasn’t for this, we’d just be sitting on the couch at home right now.”

Fellow first-time attendee Candy O’Donnell of Arlington was taking her four grandkids out for the night.

“We usually go to Stanwood’s holiday lights, but we saw this on Facebook, and it seemed closer by,” O’Donnell said.

“We wanted to try something a little different. I like the reflections of the light on the water, and the kids are looking forward to seeing Santa, but the highlight of this day has been no rain,” she added.

Salaries concern Oertle

Food Bank popular

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@arlingtontimes.com

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The first day of this year’s Christmas meal distributions at the Marysville Community Food Bank held steady with previous holiday seasons, and so have the needs of the families that it serves.

Food Bank President Dell Deierling reported that 225 clients were served more than 12,000 pounds of food on Dec. 16, by 77 volunteers from the Marysville Sunrise and Noon Rotary and Kiwanis clubs, missionaries from the local stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, sailors from the USS Nimitz, Boy Scouts, and students from the Marysville-Pilchuck and Getchell high schools.

Last year, the food bank served 155 clients on its first day, but that was a Monday.

On the Tuesday of last year, it served 250.

As Deierling looked ahead to the remaining two days of Christmas meal distributions on Dec. 19 and 22, he took stock of which items the food bank needs most heading into the New Year. Canned fruit, beans

At the same time, Deierling praised the community for coming together to assist each other, even more than he’s seen in previous years, as well as with assisting in new ways, such as the Kiwanis providing coffee and hot chocolate to waiting families.

“That’s such a nice touch to lift the spirits of folks,” Deierling said. “One gentleman called me, in desperate need of food for his young son and himself, and made a special trip to the food bank before hours, to just get enough food for breakfast and lunch. When I saw him again, later that day, he’d landed him a muchneeded job. Taking care of the basic need of food can move people into a position where they can focus on the

next level of priorities to better their lives.”

Besides food and money, Deierling’s biggest request for 2015 is for more volunteers, ideally for the 8:45-11:30 a.m. shifts on Mondays and Fridays.

“I think you’ll really enjoy the experience,” Deierling said. “The need for helping others is year-round, so as spring approaches, think about planting extra veggies to bring to the food bank, in support of our ‘Giving Gardens’ program.”

Deierling likewise encouraged donations to the “Food For Thought” program, which serves more than 300 grade school children in Marysville, who would otherwise be at risk of not getting enough food to get them through the weekends.

“It’s truly amazing the amount of good people do in this town,” Deierling said.

ARLINGTON – This time of year, because of Christmas gift buying, many people have buyer’s remorse.

But Arlington City Council Member Marilyn Oertle is having voter’s remorse.

Despite reservations about giving city employees such large pay increases, Oertle voted to approve the budget Dec. 15.

Oertle, who has been on the council for 15 years, said she felt pressured to OK the budget because of Christmas coming up, and it needed to be passed by the end of the year.

“I’m concerned the large salaries are too high for our city,” she said, adding most people in town make closer to $50,000 a year than $150,000.

“I was torn. We waited so long” to vote, she said. “I didn’t want to hash it out in the last hours.”

She said she decided to vote with the majority because she was assured by

Mayor Barbara Tolbert and other city officials that Arlington would address the entire pay structure after the first of the year.

Oertle said she wants the council to start looking at the budget in the spring instead of the fall.

“It’s all done in a short period of time,” she said, addOertle ing city staff was unable to get her all of the information she needed.

For example, Oertle asked for comparable wages of city officials in towns similar in size to Arlington. She also never received itemized information on exactly what the pay raises would be.

Both are common requests in budget and salary negotiations.

Arlington communications director Kristin Banfield said in an email to the Arlington Times that the salary increases are within the pay ranges set up by the city. So the raises

are actually standard merit increases.

“The council and mayor work for taxpayers, not to stuff the staff ’s pocketbooks,” Oertle said Dec. 16, adding city government is “broken.”

Oertle said it’s not that staff doesn’t deserve any increase, but this is “out of control.”

Oertle said it bothered her that the city increased property taxes to pay for services, not for raises. And she could not even find out what the city administrator was going to make. Oertle said previously she had to find that out on the street.

Oertle wasn’t the only council member against the budget. Debora Nelson previously also had some objections. But like Oertle, she voted with the majority. She was unavailable for additional comment.

Tolbert had said previously that the city actually will be spending less on salaries than in 2014. That is because the police chief and fire chief are now combined SEE SALARY, PAGE 5

THE PUBLIC FORUM

THE ARLINGTON TIMES.THE MARYSVILLE GLOBE

IN OUR VIEW

Taxpayers should decide city raises When a city wants to give its workers raises, it is wise to give the public as much information as possible to get buy-in from the people who pay the taxes to support the government.

Most cities know the backlash is not worth it, and being open and honest pays off.

The city of Arlington apparently did not get that memo.

That city’s politicians did not do a good job of playing politics during recent budget discussions.

Council members Marilyn Oertle and Debora Nelson were on target last week, asking for exact numbers for the raises and wanting to know what cities of similar size pay their workers.City staff did not respond to their concerns, but it should have.

The city would only say that the raises are within the pay scale set for each job. While that is true, the council – representing taxpayers – has a right to know how much a position was paid last year, and how much that position will be paid in 2015. The council was told that $161,000 less would be spent on salaries because of staff reductions. But maybe the council wanted to spend at least some of those savings elsewhere.

It is not like we don’t think city employees in Arlington deserve a raise, especially if they haven’t received one in years or they are taking on new or additional duties. It is just that we believe taxpayers deserve to know what is going on. By not being open about it, that makes us skeptical. Oertle could not even find out how much the city administrator would make, having to hear about it on the street.

It is a shame Oertle and Nelson didn’t hold strong to their objections. They voted with the majority and approved the budget this week. Oertle said there wasn’t time to fight it because of the holiday and the looming Dec. 31 deadline for budget passage.

One good thing that should come about from this is the city will start discussing the budget in the spring instead of fall so the council, and taxpayers, will have more time to get the answers they deserve. Also, Oertle said she was promised that the city’s entire pay structure will be looked at in 2015.

That would be a good idea. If the state’s governor makes $170,000 a year, how can the city administrator in Arlington make $154,000 annually. Oertle said it best, “The council and mayor work for taxpayers, not to stuff the staff ’s pocketbooks.”

We all would love to decide our own raises. But government has checks and balances for a reason.

Budget on the mark Last month the City Council approved the city’s biennial budget for 2015-2016. It was the culmination of a lot of planning and work done by the administration and council during the past several months. Special thanks to the Finance Department for its countless hours preparing the plan. The city’s financial condition continues to strengthen—the result of a recovering economy, growing community and careful financial planning. The budget maintains financial prudence and discipline, while allowing progress on strategic initiatives important to our community. The two-year budget encourages us to anticipate opportunities and challenges in the years ahead. The longerterm planning will further enhance our financial stability and allow us to better serve our comNehring munity.

Looking forward We must make progress on several initiatives. These include: solutions to train traffic, downtown revitalization, street maintenance, replacement and expansion of aging facilities, and promoting public safety and security. We are seeking state and federal funding but recognize many of these challenges will need city resources.

The increased traffic from coal and oil trains have hampered mobility in Marysville. This budget provides funding for the design and permitting of an interchange at SR529 and I-5 to improve traffic flow as well as provide a critical access point unimpaired by trains.

The construction has a pricetag of up to $50 million.

Downtown revitalization and waterfront access has been a priority for years. The city has continued to assemble properties and pursue cleanup to enable shoreline access and redevelopment on these sites.

We have worked on attracting people into downtown through civic improvements and development of recreational opportunities. This budget continues this initiative with progress on trails, downtown spaces and property assembly and cleanup.

Street maintenance is a clear priority for citizens. Last April, voters approved a Transportation Benefit District, funded by a .2 percent increase in the sales tax within the city that will be dedicated to street maintenance and improvements.

This budget provides additional resources for maintaining our rights of way in order to promote safety, mobility and street image within our community.

Our city facilities are in need of attention. Most dire is the Public Safety building, built 27 years ago with a community 1/10th our size.

The building provides space for Police, Fire, Investigations, jail, records and evidence. The budget

includes funds to determine future needs of this facility.

Highlights Here are some of the key initiatives in the budget that will enable us to advance our goals for economic development, transportation infrastructure and other key service priorities: •Pavement preservation – $500,000.

-100th Street NE from State Avenue to 48th Drive NE -67th Avenue NE from 88th Street NE to 100th Street NE -60th Avenue NE from Grove Street to 93rd Place NE -Sunnyside Blvd. from 51st Avenue NE to 52nd Street NE; and from 46th Street NE to 71st Avenue NE -116th Street NE from State Avenue to 47th Drive NE -128th Street NE from State Avenue to 43rd Avenue NE -122nd Street NE from State Avenue to 38th Avenue NE -Beach Avenue from Grove Street to Short Street •Capital Facility Maintenance Plan - $300,000.

•Downtown revitalization $150,000 to create a downtown and waterfront area that is a more vibrant, attractive and pedestrianfriendly for visitors and shoppers.

The city will continue to improve infrastructure, fixtures, landscaping and signage, as well as support police and code enforcement measures designed to make downtown more beautiful and crime-free.

•Code enforcement/Community cleanup - $30,000 for multiple cleanup activities deployed as part of Clean Sweep Week, a costeffective, community cleanup event last year that rallied volunteers, merchants and city employees for a once-over spring cleaning.

•Park trails construction $100,000 for a future extension of Bayview Trail •Consulting services - $150,000 for analysis of specific city services, including courts and jail, to review current practices for efficiency and cost effectiveness.

•Economic development $50,000 to expand services and contact to the business community.

•Transportation - $1.4 million to continue the design of an interchange at SR529 and I-5; $7.726 million for improvements along State Avenue, 67th, 88th and various locations throughout the city.

These funds, along with the TBD funding of more than $3 million for the biennium, provides for a substantial boost to address the city’s transportation needs.

Our emphasis on creating a regional manufacturing, light industry job center in the Smokey Point area is a strong long-term endeavor. We signed a joint resolution between Marysville, Arlington and the Tulalip Tribes supporting regional coordination of a manufacturing and industrial center to

The Smokey Point area is master planned with the potential to create thousands of jobs in aerospace, technology and other light industry and manufacturing. In 2015-16 the city will be working to identify industry needs in order to establish a stronger relationship with our business partners.

The completion of key transportation projects in 2014 assisted with improving driver and pedestrian safety while easing some congestion.

Key transportation projects completed in 2014: •Signalization at 53rd and SR528 •Pavement Preservation/overlays -108th Street NE from 51st Avenue NE to 67th Avenue NE -Grove Street from 73rd St. NE to 79th Dr. NE -State Avenue from 88th Street NE to 92nd Street NE -44th Avenue NE from Grove Street to 76th Street NE Transportation remains one of our top priorities, and we continue to maximize local resources to leverage outside funding from state and federal grant sources. Our engineers and project managers have established a track record of acquiring grants and using taxpayer resources to maintain streets and to construct improvements that will improve travel for residents and businesses.

Summary This spending plan seeks to maintain our city’s status as a desirable community in which to live, work and play while maintaining the sound economic foundation our citizens have come to expect.

We are committed to prudent fiscal management, effective service delivery, and providing our citizens with the highest quality of life possible.

Salary FrOM Page 3 under Public Safety Director Bruce Stedman and Chris Young has been appointed director of economic and community development, as well as the head of the airport.

Arlington will have 126.11 employees in 2015, compared with 128.9, a reduction of 2.69.

That will drop payment for salaries 169,048, from $11.12 million to almost $10,952 million.

Oertle argues those savings could go to other needs, rather

December 20, 2014

than salary increases.

Banfield’s email to The Times says the city administrator who replaces Allen Johnson, who is retiring at the end of the year, will make $154,000. The city administrator in Marysville, a town three times its size, makes $161,000 a year. And the governor of the state makes just $170,000.

Other changes: Building Official to Community Development/Airport Director 6 percent raise; Assistant City Administrator moving to HR Director/ Communication has a 6 percent increase; and

Community Development Liaison to Permit Center Manager is up 4.3 percent.

Banfield’s email says when an employee is re-classified/ promoted the pay increase normally is about two steps, or 6 percent. In some cases the pay increase may exceed that due to the complexity of the job.

Following are various Arlington city officials and their monthly salaries. The pay ranges are $8,262-$11,780, except where noted, according to the email.

City Administrator Allen

Johnson, $14,167.

Arlington’s food bank desperate for volunteers

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

A city crew clears a sidewalk of debris after a huge limb toppled a utility pole.

City removes debris after storm

MARYSVILLE – The city of Marysville helped out residents who were hit by the wind storm Dec. 11.

Two city crews responded to calls or emails from residents who needed excess debris picked up from their property.

The crews started the project early Dec. 12, cutting up fallen trees on roads and sidewalks to try to keep them clear.

Dec. 15 they were on Cedar north of Grove where a huge limb had broken off

of a tree and knocked down a power pole.

After the pole was replaced, crews came back to cut up the rest of the debris and haul it off to city property.

Once all of the debris is collected, it will be sent through a chipper.

Waste Management kept up its regular yard-waste pickup schedule, but city crews handled leftover debris up until Dec. 19.

When the effort ended, a huge pile of debris had formed near the lagoon.

ARLINGTON — Even after its Christmas meal distributions on Friday, Dec. 19, and Monday, Dec. 22, the Arlington Community Food Bank will still be in dire need of more volunteers to support its basic operations.

Food Bank President Sue Keezer pointed out that the nonprofit relies entirely on an unpaid volunteer staff to function, which can become especially challenging during the holidays.

“A lot of our volunteers are retired snowbirds, so either they head south for the winter, or they’re old enough that they can’t do heavy lifting,” said Keezer, who suffers from a bad back.

While Keezer would welcome volunteers who can lift up to 50 pounds, she added that the food bank could use help in a variety of positions.

“In addition to organizing and sorting through food donations at our warehouse, we could use more people to greet our clients and help them shop for what they

want,” Keezer said. She explained that volunteers escort clients through the aisles, allow them to choose their own items.

Keezer asked that prospective volunteers make a weekly commitment, even if it’s only for an hour or two at a time.

“You can help us set up and break down for one of our three food distribution times each week,” Keezer said. “You can also drive our truck to local grocery stores, or even just ride along to help load and unload the items that get picked up.”

The food bank distributes meal items at 19118 63rd Ave. NE in Arlington from noon to 1 p.m. on Mondays and Fridays, and from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Wednesdays.

You can download a volunteer application form online at www.arlingtonwafoodbank.org or pick one up at its warehouse during distribution hours. Volunteers must pass a Washington state background check.

Amy Butchart, a member of the food bank’s board, reported that the nonprofit is on track to serve more than 5,000 clients in Arlington by the end of 2014.

Arlington officer, K9 hurt in collision at Smokey Point

ARLINGTON – An Arlington K9 police officer was involved in a two-car collision Dec. 17 en route to a domestic violence call.

Shortly before 9 p.m. the police car collided with another vehicle at the intersection of State Route 531 and Smokey Point Boulevard, even though he had his lights

and siren on. Four people were transported to Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington for evaluation, including the officer. All have been released. The officer’s K9 partner was transported to a veterinary clinic and released. Arlington police has requested Washington State Patrol to investigate.

Sierra Sandison tells local kids about diabetes.

When Johnson found out the girl was also diabetic, she felt that even if she only made a difference in that one girl’s life and outlook, she had met her goal.

Sandison now speaks to children around the country, bringing the message that it is good to appreciate the difficult challenges in life because they help you become the person you want to become.

Teacher of the Year from Arlington preschool ARLINGTON – APPLE Preschool teacher Heide Scrimgeour is Washington State Association of Head Start and ECEAP Teacher of the Year. It has been 28 years since a Snohomish County Head Start or ECEAP staff person has won this award. There are thousands of Head Start and ECEAP employees in the state.

“I have never met anyone as generous with her time, willing with her spirit and as

committed to the children and their success as Heide Scrimg e o u r ,” Scrimgeour APPLE/ ECEAP Director Ethna Flanagan wrote a recommendation.

Scrimgeour has been working with APPLE ECEAP since 2008 when she

started as a teacher assistant and is now in her fourth year as a lead teacher. She is working on her Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education.

“Not only is Heide a creative energetic teacher offering her students a vibrant high quality education, she brings out the best in her staff team by supporting and valuing their contributions,” Flanagan’s letter states.

SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE ADOPTION

ARLINGTON – Fifth-grade students at Presidents Elementary heard a message from Sierra Sandison about what it is like to be diagnosed with Type I diabetes and how everyone has something about them that doesn’t measure up to the standards set by others.

Despite all that, on July 13, 2014, Sandison won the crown of Miss Idaho.

She talked about the anger she felt when she received the diagnosis. As a teenager, she went through a challenging time of not taking care of herself, which ended when she heard about Nicole Johnson, winner of the 1997 Miss America title, who also has diabetes. Ms. Johnson wore her insulin pump during the Miss America contest and is now an advocate for diabetes and has written three cookbooks.

Sandison said she was inspired by Johnson’s courageous approach to diabetes.

Sandison was then willing to wear her insulin pump openly. She expressed her desire to make a difference in the lives of children by being open about her diabetes.

She told the story of a girl who approached her before a beauty pageant and asked about her insulin pump.

‘Hope & Healing’ part of Tulalip holiday crafts

13

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP — Members of the Marysville and Tulalip communities came together in the wake of this year’s tragedies during the “Hope & Healing” candle centerpiece workshop at the Tulalip Tribes administration building Dec. 13.

Nikki Cleary, director of communications for the tribes, explained that this first-time event was inspired by the Oct. 24 Marysville-Pilchuck High School shooting. Anita Rutherford, administrative assistant of the Tulalip Resort Casino, elaborated that they hoped the event could help people deal with other tragedies, including the March 22 Oso slide.

“Lots of people have their own personal landslides that they’re dealing with, especially at this time of year, whether it’s putting food on the table or making enough money to pay the bills,” Rutherford said.

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo Cleary added: “A lot of times, Louie Mitchell makes a table centerpiece. we heal by taking action. The holidays can be a stressful time anyway.”

The tribes’ forestry department worked raffled off that day as well.

Cleary credited the “healthy gardens” of with community partners, including the the Hibulb Cultural Center with providing Snohomish County Master Gardeners, support not only for this event, but also for to harvest cedar, pine, spruce and holly the Marysville and Tulalip food banks as branches for people to make into wreaths they prepare Christmas meals for clients. and table centerpieces.

“We’re not focused on the tragedies, but “I like the branches that still have moss on healing as a community, ” Rutherford on them,” said Rutherford, who noted that half a dozen donated Christmas trees were said.

Marysville looks to vendors for digital education

By STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – The future is now for education in the Marysville School District. The district wants to move to the forefront in using technology in the classroom.

The district will pick among two finalists – eduro and Discovery Education – to help them do that. Both gave presentations to the school board this week.

Jeff Utecht of eduro said to get the most out of technology the goal is to provide new learning experiences, not just rehash things the old way using technology.

Instead of teachers teaching all students the same thing, they will need to help students create projects that are personal learning experiences that they are passionate about.

He gave an example about a student who loved

We’ve Got You Covered

to skateboard, but didn’t like anything about school. By the time he was done with his project, he had improved his skills in research, math, presentation and more.

Getting teachers to do things differently is one of the biggest challenges. “It’s a shift in the mind of teaching,� he said. “It’s tough to get there. It’s a slow process.�

School Board member Pete Lundberg said, “They (students) will get it before the teacher does.�

Utecht agreed, adding students have grown up with technology. Teachers become facilitators, helping students learn what infor-

offerings, but its goal is the same – to inspire student achievement. Spokesman Todd Pellegrino said it works to collaborate and have quality interactions with clients.

Professional development for teachers is first and foremost. “We teach the teachers before giving them the tools,� he said.

Toni Robinson, director of professional development for the company, said training would take place over five years, compared with three for eduro. The district’s 450 teachers would be broken up into 150 taking the course each year.

Professional Learning Communities would be set up with teachers sharing information to learn from each other.

Kim Cofino of Connecticut said most of the members work or have worked at international schools and that perspective is important and would benefit students in Marysville. “The world is a global place,� she said, with different backgrounds.

He enjoys his walks and sitting in your lap. He has lived with other small dogs. Cats would be ok with a proper introduction. He is not yet housebroken so crate training is recommended. No small children please. Come meet him today!

FIREWOOD

Dry & CustomSplit Alder, Maple & Douglas Fir Speedy Delivery & Best Prices!

425-312-5489 NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.

The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet.

Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
