POULSBO — The annual North Kitsap School District Festival of the Arts is a way for students to really “get their creative juices flowing,” seventhgrader Izzy Poole said. Poole is one of many students who will have their work shown during the festival, which includes students from every school in the district. Poole is one of the fashion students at Kingston Middle School who are working on a fashion show for the festival, making artistic clothes out of garbage bags. “In the art show, we’re going to put them on, we’re going to walk across the stage and then we’re going to have my friend Heidi (Lenz) over here talking about the dresses while we’re walking across the stage,” Poole said. The festival will also include other performances like choirs, drummers, acrobatics, guitarists, dance and more. It will feature fiber arts, paintings and drawings, pottery, a “make and take” section, a community papier-mache project and more. This year, it will be from 5-8 See FESTIVAL, Page A12

He was director of the Public Safety Department and spent almost four years there. Most recently, he spent about four years with the Suquamish Police
Department as a sergeant. Recently, White talked to the North Kitsap Herald about his new job and his goals for the department. Herald: Can you tell me about your department — number of officers, type of equipment, etc.? White: It’s a total of 10. That includes the chief and
the support specialist, one sergeant and one lieutenant. The rest are patrol. Right now, it’s a small, small agency, so our living space … is very limited. We’ve got very good patrol cars. We operate on the standard equipment that every other law enforcement See Q&A, Page A12
