Make-up schedule for February snow storm announced Renton schools posted on March 4 they need to make up five snow days, extending current trimester. By Haley Ausbun Reporter

Valley Medical Center held a ribbon cutting March 7 to celebrate the $15 million treatment area for heart care.

Valley updates heart care with new labs, technology Renton patients will no longer need to travel to Seattle or Tacoma for a stroke, arrhythmia diagnosis or advanced imaging of vascular problems. By Haley Ausbun Reporter

Valley Medical Center introduced advanced cardiac and vascular services to the Renton area March 12. Instead of patients driving to Tacoma or Seattle for this specific care, physicians and staff will be able to offer arrhythmia treatment, minimally-invasive heart surgeries, heart disease intervention and rehabilitation. This is especially important for people in the middle of a stroke. Now they can get care quicker and closer.

The treatment area includes new equipment and procedures, hybrid operating room, electrophysiology and cardiac catheterization labs. The new services are expanding the already existing cardiology program. “To say that we’ve been waiting for this day would be an understatement,” John Wagner, Valley’s vice president for PeriOperative services and imaging, said at the ribbon cutting March 7. He said in the three years he’s been there, they’ve been designing this space. The previous area for these procedures were out of date.

The rooms were small and had substandard imaging equipment for the most modern cardiac and vascular procedures. The design wasn’t easy for engineers. The space is in one of the oldest parts of the building from 1969. Dr. John Nemanich said he started lobbying for new cardiac labs about six years ago. He said he expected a new lab, and instead they have fortunately ended up with three. Nemanich also talked about how far cardiac procedures have gone since he began, being able to save patients lives. They were only able to perform emergency procedures until about 2009, when the state legislature allowed coronary See HEART, Page 8

The Renton School District recently released its plan to make up for the heavy snow storm in early February that resulted in five full days of school missed. The current high school trimester will be extended to end on Friday, March 22. It was originally set for Friday, March 15. The district switched high schools to trimester’s this year to help with graduation rates. The district will also be using scheduled snow make-up day Tuesday, May 28 and add one

Lindbergh senior wins competition, snags job By Haley Ausbun Reporter

Lindbergh High School senior Moyaak Chuol had a good day Feb. 23. He not only won an aerospace manufacturing competition against more than 50 other high school students, he received an email Moyaak Chuol that he’d been accepted for a job at Boeing that he interviewed for days before. Chuol won first place at the Washington state SkillsUSA

Manufacturing Assembler State Competition, hosted by Boeing at the Everett plant. The competition has an interview portion and a hands-on manufacturing portion. The winner is then based off scores from both parts of the event. This was Chuol’s second time competing. He was also an intern with Boeing. At Lindbergh, Chuol is in his second year with the aerospace class. His victory didn’t come without hard work. He had been pushing himself in that class with the help of construction, industrial technology and aerospace teacher Creed See CHUOL, Page 14

day to the end of the year, Friday, June 21. Renton schools posted to the website that it’s working with Renton’s teacher union and union partners to determine the other three days. The school district is also currently determining what Gov. Jay Inslee’s declared state of emergency during the snow storm means for make-up days, and if they could be waived. The snow days cannot be made up during spring break, because breaks are bargained in contract negotiations with staff unions, according to the district. They will also keep March 18 as a non-student day for teacher training. High school graduation ceremonies will remain on schedule, according to the school district.

Hazen soccer team reunites lost puppy with foster mom Merry had been rescued from an overcrowded shelter in South Korea By Haley Ausbun Reporter

It was like something out of a movie. As Heidi Norman approached the soccer field, she saw a group of heads all turn to look at her with excitement. They started to jump for joy. In their midst was a six-month-old puppy named Merry. The Hazen High School boys soccer team had found the missing foster dog March 4 during practice. Coach Ken Matthews said the student athletes were gearing up for practice and putting on their cleats when the puppy arrived. The dog had popped up out of nowhere and was zooming around the field. In an athletic fashion, Merry ran several laps nervously before curling up under the bleachers where students sat. At the time, the players were worn out from the week before â€” the first week is always rough when people get cut from

the team. But this was a welcomed distraction. â€œThe guys latched onto her in a second,â€? Matthews said. As more members of the soccer team arrived on the field, the students took interest and started to hold the dog. It was clear this

pup had been taken care of and was likely missing, Matthews said. Assistant coaches like Breann Vanden Bos found a blanket to wrap her in, and Matthewsâ€™ wife, Madeline Matthews, held the puppy while the boys continued practice.

The coaches posted pictures all over social media to try and find the owner. At the same time, foster parents and staff at Aberdeen Scottish Terrier Rescue in Renton had been scouring the streets for Merry since Saturday morning. The possible Aussie Cattle Dog mix had run off during a meet and greet at Hazen for a possible adoption of another dog at the foster momâ€™s home. Staff said Merry was spooked by how many people were at the meet and greet. It was ironic considering a couple

days later she enjoyed the company of an entire soccer team of teenage boys. Staff at the rescue said they hardly slept or ate while trying to get the word out and worrying over Merry. They placed posters everywhere. The puppy had been through so much as a rescue dog from an overcrowded shelter in Changwon, South Korea, and now was somewhere alone. Merry was rescued as an attempt by Aberdeen Scottish Terrier Rescue to save 20 dogs that were going to be killed. She was among the first set of pups to arrive

in the U.S. The dogs are claimed as baggage, then inspected and vetted before arriving in Washington into foster homes. The rescue staff quickly saw the coachesâ€™ posts and called Matthews. When owner Heidi Norman answered, she was in tears, so grateful theyâ€™d found Merry. Even days later, remembering the moment was an emotional one for Norman â€” it didnâ€™t seem real. â€œThe sense of peace, gratitude we had to all the people, to this soccer team, for this lovely little dog and everything sheâ€™d been through was just unbelievable,â€? Norman said. The staff members said they can breathe easy now that Merry is home with her foster parent. It takes many people to run the rescue and take care of these pups, and now a soccer team can be listed in those ranks. Matthews said he hopes this moment brought some good karma to the field for the upcoming season. Merry is up currently up for adoption. Her full history, needs and application information is available at adoptapet.com/ savethescotties.

How big should Renton get? Staff discussed at council retreat By Haley Ausbun Reporter

Should Renton continue to annex? How can the city fund walkways for all it’s roads? These questions and the future growth of Renton were all discussed by councilmembers last Saturday at the annual retreat. Officials do not take action during the retreat, but it can shape the legislation council looks

at throughout the year. Renton’s potential annexation areas, including Skyway, Fairwood and the East Renton plateau, were determined in 1994, with no review since. Changes in state supports and difficulty aligning county development regulations led council to question whether annexations should continue. Currently, the city is accepting small areas that make the city

boundary more logical. Councilmember Ed Prince referred the issue of island annexations to the Planning and Development Committee during the regular council meeting March 11. Another major topic was sidewalks, especially in recently annexed areas. The steep costs of sidewalks has kept major sidewalk projects on hold in the city. Sidewalks have been a

major concern for the city. The last walkway study was in 2008 and did not include the Benson area, that was annexed later. Many streets in Renton were built before current standards, according to retreat documents, and lack sidewalks on one or both sides. The city staff presented funding options to council and included examples of how other cities fund their sidewalk maintenance

projects. Councilmember Randy Corman referred the issue of walkways to the Transportation Committee during the March 11 meeting. The council also discussed Renton’s finances, including the financial reserves which are almost all equal or more than recommended; conservative financial projections; density code

changes in the downtown to accommodate taller buildings; how to encourage public transportation in Renton; and the perception of public safety downtown, including the city center parking garage. Renton City Council held its annual retreat March 10 at the Renton Senior Activity Center. The recording of the meeting is available on the city’s website.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Addressing concerns, inaccurate statements To facilitate fact-based discussion about Lakeside Industries’ application to relocate its Covington asphalt facility to the Industrial-zoned site on state Route 169, I would like to address some seriously inaccurate statements in a recent letter to the editor in the Renton Reporter. We suggest that interested parties review the detailed Lakeside Application and the numerous related

studies that are being considered by King County. This detailed information will answer many of your questions and it is helpful in understanding Lakeside’s proposal. We understand why there may be concern regarding potential adverse effects from the facility on the water quality in the Cedar River. The Lakeside proposal will clean up a site that has been significantly degraded by a century of prior industrial uses. To that end, we will restore all the wetland and stream buffers and actually create new future salmon habitat. We will treat and infiltrate 100 percent of the stormwater on the site that

currently runs untreated into the river. Lakeside is a locally based, fourth-generation company, and our grandparents, parents, my brothers and sisters, and our children all highly value our salmon and orcas. Our plans for the protection of the Cedar River are being praised by the experts. We intend to improve the traffic conditions on SR 169 adjacent to the site. Trucks have been exiting and entering the site for several decades. We will add a new deceleration and acceleration lane adjacent to the property so the highway See LETTERS, Page 5

recovery. It provides a degree of regulation by establishing a process for recovery residences to be certified by a nationally recognized group or an affiliate based in Washington. One such organization is the Washington Alliance for Quality

This war was not a standoff between capitalism and communism as it was portrayed in the media and by the government. Instead, it was a war of independence and self-determination. It was not a war against the Soviet Union. Had they been able to see the world through different eyes, the lives of millions of Vietnamese and Americans could have been saved. At the same time, we might have avoided the decay of trust of the U.S. government that has brought us to our

current polarized nation that we live in today. Shapiro notes in his book review: “in part because the experts who might have explained it to them had been tarnished and purged from the system by McCarthyism and replaced with less knowledgeable men who saw the world as they wanted to see it, not as it was.” Both Kennedy and Johnson believed they could fight a war of moderation; One that was not all out. Some wanted no U.S. troops

on the ground in Vietnam. Others wanted American soldiers. The compromise was to have some, but not enough to win. Defeat based upon this desire for moderation was inevitable. This was not even counting Vietnamese nationalism that would make victory impossible. Shapiro thinks this war was winnable. I do not. The Vietnamese fought the Chinese for 1000 years and drove them out. They drove out the French between 1946 and 1954. The U.S. was just one more

colonial power to defeat. Whatever the case, American government leaders were unwilling or unable to face reality. Body counts of dead Viet Cong turned this war into a war of statistics. There was no clear purpose or goal. Rising American opposition to a war 10,000 miles away, and the resignation of Richard Nixon in 1974, forced American leaders to face the facts. We could win on the battlefield, but, as the Afghan and Iraqi wars have

later shown us, mere firepower is not enough to win the hearts and the minds of the populace against a determined and patient enemy. With good reason, President Obama, and now President Trump have endeavored to get us out of similar conflicts, with only partial success. They both realized that we have our limitations as the world’s only superpower. That is the reality I came to after reading Halberstam’s “The Best and the Brightest” in 1974.

will operate better than it has functioned in the past. Our facility is located on a state highway to reduce traffic in residential neighborhoods, and to bring us closer to projects, which ultimately reduces our carbon footprint. Under rare circumstances when the highway has the most traffic and when the facility is operating at maximum production, the wait time at the closest signalized intersections will increase by one to two seconds. Most of the time,

the facility will not generate the number of trucks analyzed for the worstcase conditions. It was claimed that the facility would be subject to landslides. That, too, is incorrect. Studies of the hillside behind the facility, in fact, show that, both historically and as projected, the hillside is stable, and the claimed landslide activity has occurred south of the site. Nevertheless, the site will be protected from landslides. Contrary to another inaccurate statement, the site will not affect the wells of King County Water District No. 90. Those

wells are a half mile away, on the opposite side of the river. Expert analysis, including analysis by the district’s own engineer, show that the district wells are in a different aquifer than the proposed site and thus will not be affected by our operation. Lakeside facilities are good neighbors in other communities in the state. We contribute to local charitable organizations as a matter of principle, and our employees live in the communities where they work. Several of our operations are located in communities where residents and businesses are much closer to our

facilities than will be the case in Maple Valley. We will be good community and environmental stewards at the new facility. All we ask is that folks base their opinions on the facts so we can have a productive discussion and, in the end, be an even better neighbor in Maple Valley. Thank you,

An update from your King County Councilmember

DAVE UPTHEGROVE New Bus Service in South King County

Mobility & Environment Committee Chair Dave Upthegrove

We continue to emphasize the growing need in South King County for more public transit service and am excited to share that several routes that serve our communities will be gaining service this month. The Route 102 will add two additional trips in the PM peak to relieve overcrowding. The Route 106 will receive an upgrade to its Sunday service from 30 minute to 15 minute frequency. The Route 111 will receive one additional trip during the morning commute to help commuting parents utilize the bus after school drop off times, in addition to an afternoon trip. You can find more information on the service additions and new bus schedules here: kingcounty.gov/depts/transportation/metro/schedules-maps/servicechange.aspx In addition to the added service, all Metro and Sound Transit buses will no longer operate in the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel on March 23rd and will begin running on downtown streets instead. Several routes in South King County including the 101, 102, and 150 will be affected by this shift to street level service. The 101, 102, and 150 will now operate on 2nd Ave in the southbound direction. King County Metro staff will be stationed in the tunnel throughout March to help answer questions during the transition and direct riders to the correct surface streets to catch their buses.

Snowmageddon King County dealt with more snow than we are used to seeing during our winters. We hope everyone was able to stay safe, warm and enjoy a bit of sledding and snowball fighting. The snow brings some extra challenges for transportation in King County. In our most recent storm, Metro had to activate their Emergency Snow Network which reduces bus service to only core routes around the region. King County has a webpage, https://bit.ly/2SnPtlj, dedicated to resources for emergency preparedness that can be helpful in our next snow storm or emergency. There is also a “disaster skills training” scheduled in Des Moines on Tuesday, April 2nd at 630pm at the Des Moines King County Library. You can find more information and register here: https://bit.ly/2XsYtFw.

Upcoming Events in District 5 King County events and public meetings are happening across the county every day. For information on March events, visit my website, kingcounty.gov/upthegrove for a list of opportunities to connect with resources and enjoy all that South King County has to offer. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any comments or concerns, I always appreciate hearing from you. Sincerely,

New dual credit math class builds bridge to college Partnership with Renton schools helps prepare students for career training at RTC For the Reporter Hazen High School senior Zack Hinesley was already making plans to attend Renton Technical College, so when he found out he could receive college credits for a high school math Zack class, he was Hinesley eager to sign up. “It gets me on the ground running,” said Hinesley, who plans to start the Ford Asset Program at RTC in fall 2019. Through a partnership between RTC and the Renton School District’s Career and Technical Education Division (CTE),

transition rates from high school to college for CTE students. “We are breaking down

barriers to college for CTE students,” said Marty Cooksey, a math instructor at RTC who, along with math colleague Elizabeth Demong, spearheaded the partnership. About 40 students from Hazen and Lindbergh high schools visited RTC March 6 to apply for RTC credits and explore career training pathways offered at RTC. (The burgers and chili fries from the Culinaire Express were also a hit with students.) “Our students need to graduate with options, so that they are prepared for their first next step after high school,” said Kevin Smith, CTE Director for the Renton School District. “Our goal is that every student earns a Renton School District high school diploma, with a combination of additional career learning experiences, such

as meaningful employment via CTE Worksite Learning, and/or by earning a combination of portable credits and credentials tied to future career and education plans.” For some students, it was their first visit and they learned about the many opportunities available to them. Others have had their eyes on RTC for a while. Jennifer Cardenas and Sandra Preciad both hope to enroll in RTC’s Anesthesia Technologist Program. Elliott Goulet has plans to enroll in welding and says “it’s pretty cool” to already have credits toward the program. “I want to go to RTC so this, so this program really helps,” he said. Cooksey and Demong are working with other school districts to expand the CTE-focused dual credit program.

interventions. With the drive of Valley staff and the help of engineers, they were able to advance the project, which costs $15 million. “This is a state of the art facility. No expense has been spared, they gave us everything we wanted to provide the best physical space and mapping equipment,” Dr. Lee Dolack said of the electrophysiology lab. Electrophysiology studies will be able to identify arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeats. Physicians and staff can then get heartbeats back in sync. Some irregular heartbeats, like atrial fibrillation, can greatly increase the chance of a stroke, according to the center. The center is opening a multidisciplinary surgical operating room in April. This space allows for advanced procedures for strokes, as well as electrophysiology. The hybrid room is also the “coolest

Renton Reporter room,” Wagner said, filled with advanced technology. Theresa Braungardt, chief nursing officer and senior vice president of patient care services, spoke at the Eyes on Renton Chamber of Commerce event March 7. At the event, she said this expansion will meet the demands for the growing population in the area needing these procedures. Valley has almost 1,000 cardiac catheterization procedures each year, Braungardt said. Cardiac catheterization opens blocked vessels in the heart, restoring blood flow and used for some cardiac emergencies and types of heart disease. Valley already had some testing and diagnosis services for cardiology, including treadmill stress testing and vascular ultrasounds. Several of these tests are non-invasive — they don’t require skin to be pierced. There was a ribbon cutting for the event March 7 at the main hospital in the special procedure care unit. The Healthy Heart Fair was another chance for people to see the electrophysiology

What is Medicaid?

Medicaid is a program funded by the federal and state governments that provides long-term care in your home, or an assisted living facility, adult family home or skilled nursing facility for individuals who cannot afford to pay for their own care. There are strict eligibility standards for income and assets. A home is an exempt asset for purposes of initial eligibility, but it is usually subject to Medicaid recovery following death unless steps are taken to avoid recovery. Consultation with an Elder Law attorney can facilitate Medicaid eligibility, as well as protection of assets, to the extent allowed by law. I have more than 40 years of experience providing thoughtful and comprehensive counsel for clients. Please call 425-227-8700 to make an appointment.

How do you know if a bunch of seeds are still good or “viable”? Seeds can last for many years in storage especially if stored in the right conditions. To figure out the viability rate just place 10 seeds in a damp paper towel, slip this into a plastic bag and check the seeds in 10 days. If just one seed sprouts then you have a low germination rate of 10 percent but that doesn’t mean you can’t plant the seeds. Just plant ten times more to get the number of seedlings you want. Seeds are inexpensive, surprising and can break all the rules when it comes to sprouting success so experiment and keep growing.

Notes

Seeds that need a cold period or stratification before planting – this means you can plant seeds in a pot and leave buried in the soil outdoors all winter, or place seeds between layers of a damp dish cloth or in a bag of damp peat moss mixed with half sand and place the seeds in a refrigerator for at least 10 days. You are just fooling them into thinking they survived winter to get them to sprout. Bleeding Heart, Hellebores, Daylilies, Lavender, Phlox, Primroses, Viola, Columbine Seedling that do not like to be transplanted – sow these where you want them to grow Dill, Swiss Chard, Beet, Turnip, Carrot, Fennel, Lupine, Nigella, Poppy, Parsley, Peas, Corn, Nasturtium Hardy seeds that can be planted now outdoors in early spring Leek, Onion, Peas, Kale, Kohlrabi, Mustard, Turnip, Larkspur, California Poppy, Lettuce, Spinach, Radish, Parsley, Cress

COURTESY OF CREED NELSON / BOEING PHOTO

Moyaak Chuol, senior at Lindbergh High School, holds up his first place trophy with teacher Creed Nelson on Feb. 23. Chuol starts a job at Boeing after graduation.

Chuol From Page 1

Nelson. The senior said he asked Nelson to give him a big project in preparation for this year’s competition. Nelson gave him 30 sheets of metal to drill and rivet in only two weeks. Having that short window and working alone helped Chuol practice the focus he would need in the assembly competition. He was able to finish his project at the Boeing competition with a half-hour to spare. “He’s been an incredible student from the beginning,” Nelson said. “As soon as he got into the class he wanted to learn as much as he could and turn it into a career.” Chuol was already interested in hands-on projects from a younger age, learning from YouTube how to build. He’s also been interested in space since middle school. It made signing up for the aerospace class at Lindbergh an easy choice. Last year a senior mentored Chuol on welding. That is what really pushed him towards the manufacturing. Now Chuol is more of a shop supervisor than a student in the class, Nelson said. He gets along with everyone and wants to pass on his skills to other students. Chuol will be starting as a general mechanic for Boeing in July. Now he just needs to finish the school year. “I can’t screw it up, I have everything on a silver

platter,” Chuol said. The aerospace class, sort of a do-it-all shop class, opened up new ideas for Chuol’s post-graduation possibilities. Chuol wants to make sure other students know there’s a lot more opportunities than college. The aerospace class, and Lindbergh in general, really showed him other paths. “A lot of classes talk about college but I don’t think we get enough choices on that,” he said. “In this class, we get someone coming from a different company every month.” It’s true, Nelson often brings in company speakers to give the students options for jobs, apprenticeships and internships. The students get to hear these representatives say they want to hire them out of high school. Nelson has been running the Core Plus Aerospace program for seven years out of Lindbergh. He was in the first group of schools across the state to adopt it. Now it’s in Renton and Hazen as well. Nelson doesn’t think of what he offers students as alternatives to college. He said most students aren’t going to universities. For Lindbergh about 40 percent of students won’t go to post-secondary school, but for a long time they weren’t being told about their possibilities. He also pointed out many manufacturing companies like Boeing in Puget Sound will provide their employees with paid education as needed. The graduating class of 2015, the state office of

Superintendent of Public Instruction reported almost 60 percent of students were enrolled in college, but only around 20 percent of those students were going to a four-year institution. Nelson also thinks high schools need to do a better job of showing kids their opportunities after graduation. He credits the Lindbergh counselors being on board with this idea for making “college isn’t for everybody” an actual practice at their school. Boeing has also seen an increase in high school partners. Joe Turner, Boeing manager for workforce development said in the last three years they’ve gone from eight high schools to 40 that partner with them using the Core Plus Aerospace program, the same Lindbergh has. Last year six high school competitors became Boeing employees after the SkillsUSA competition, and this year they will almost double that number, Turner said. Terri Lufkin is the state director for SkillsUSA in high schools. She said during the competition Boeing tells the students about jobs available and the long term growth opportunities. The contest costs $50 a student who must be SkillsUSA members, which is $16. Last year, the state had almost 3,500 student and teacher members. More information on SkillsUSA is at skillsusa.org.
