Gilbert Classical Academy could force Junior High closure

BYE, BYE BACK PAIN

Overcrowded school needs more room BRIEANNA J FRANK THE REPUBLIC | AZCENTRAL.COM

Gilbert Public Schools opened the Gilbert Classical Academy 10 years ago to offer more college-prep options to parents and students and compete with an ever-growing number of charter schools. The academy, which combines academic rigor and music education, recently was ranked the 30th best public high school in the nation by U.S. News and World Report. The rankings are calculated using factors such as the percentage of students who participate in Advanced Placement classes and who are deemed to be ready for college. The school has a 100 percent AP participation rate and 98.5 percent of its students are determined to be prepared for college, according to the report. Since it opened in 2007, the academy has grown from 200 students in grades 7-9 to more than 500 in grades 7-12. The student body has grown so large that district officials are considering moving the academy to another campus. The academy currently operates at Greenfield and Elliot roads on a campus that had been home to a JROTC academy that wasn’t as successful as the district had hoped. After the JROTC school closed, Gilbert Classical Academy opened its doors as a way for the district to compete with Gilbert’s many charter schools. “I don’t know if they really could foresee how many charter schools were com-

ing,” said administrative assistant Candy Dratnol, who’s been with the academy since it opened. “We knew we were going to have competition, but I don’t know if they knew the competition was going to be as big as what it is right now.” Principal Dan Hood said even though charter competition is stiff, the school has held up well and has even received international interest because of its high rankings and performance. “Success draws people in,” Hood said. “We get people from all over the world who call us and say, ‘We want to come to your school.’ ” Hood and Dratnol said they’re hoping the school can leave its current campus soon.

The journey toward a new home The district governing board is expected to look at moving the academy to Gilbert Junior High School. But that will be a process, according to Irene Mahoney-Paige, district spokeswoman. On May 30, the board will vote on whether to close Gilbert Junior High, which Mahoney-Paige said is currently operating at under 50 percent capacity. If board members vote to close the school, its students would be relocated to Mesquite Junior High School about three miles away. “Anytime you look to close a school, it’s an emotional thing,” Mahoney-Paige

KELSEY MO THE REPUBLIC | AZCENTRAL.COM

A Perry High School student suspected of making a threat against the school has been arrested, according to the Gilbert Police Department. The student “created a hoax” and was taken into custody over the weekend for investigation of disrupting an educational institution, the Police Department said Monday. The student could face felony charges. The male student reportedly made vague threats to the school earlier this month, but police received new information over the weekend that led to his subsequent arrest. An email from the school’s principal to parents indicated the student continued to make threatening comments toward the school after he was removed from campus. Police said the student acted alone and that there was no indication other students were making threats against the school, which is located in Gilbert but is a part of the Chandler Unified School District. The identity of the student was not released because he is a juvenile. Dan Serrano, Perry High principal, sent an email to parents over the weekend clearing up some misinformation: Dear Parents and Guardians, I am writing to alleviate concerns about some rumors and misinformation that is being shared on social media regarding a resolved incident. Following up on a threat that was made by a student two weeks ago, the student was immediately identified and disciplinary action was taken. The student was removed from campus and is subject to law enforcement consequences.

CUSD and PHS have a zero tolerance policy toward any message or threat to staff and students and will work cooperatively with law enforcement to pursue prosecution in these matters. Students and staff are safe, and there is no credible threat to school on Monday. I want to assure the Perry community that there is nothing we take more seriously than student safety. We definitely understand student and parent anxiousness regarding any school threat, but want you to know that there is zero credibility to any of these rumors. My own daughter attends this school and I would never place her or any other student in danger. Safety is always our primary concern. We will never skimp on ensuring the safety of every student, at all times. We will continue to do everything we can to make Perry High School a safe learning environment. We ask that all parents, students and staff continue to help in our school safety efforts by being the “eyes and ears” of all of our schools and our community. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call me at 224-2807. Sincerely, Dan Serrano Principal, Perry High School. Serrano sent another email with an update on the arrest: Dear parents and guardians, This is a brief update to yesterday’s email regarding safety at Perry High School. Tonight the Gilbert Police Department arrested and detained the student for continuing to make comments on social media that were threatening in nature. Please continue to discuss with your children the seriousness of messages that can be considered a threat by others. Student and staff safety will always be our highest priority.

Authorities are seeking the public’s help in finding a man facing several charges who cut off his GPS monitoring device in Tempe on Monday, according to Silent Witness. Phoenix police Sgt. James Rothschild said 37-year-old Alan Donato Feliciano originally faced charges of failing to register as a sex offender, aggravated DUI and identity theft. He now is wanted for a probation violation after cutting off the device near Southern Avenue and Country Club Way in Tempe on Monday, police said. Rothschild said Feliciano is accused of committing crimes in five states. Feliciano might pose a flight risk and

has talked about fleeing to Mexico or Cuba, Rothschild said. Rothschild said Feliciano might be traveling with his girlfriend and that he’s been known to carry a Alan Donato gun. Feliciano Maricopa County’s Adult Probation Office is seeking the public’s help in finding Feliciano. Feliciano is 5 feet 5 inches, 140 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He has a tattoo that says “Chee” on his left arm and “Alan Jr.” on his right arm, Rothschild said. Rothschild urged the public not to approach Feliciano if they spot him, but to contact Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS instead.

JOSIAH DESTIN THE REPUBLIC | AZCENTRAL.COM

A string of pedestrian fatalities has spurred the Mesa Police Department to step up its efforts to discourage pedestrians from crossing streets illegally. The move comes after nine fatalities in pedestrian-related traffic accidents and one involving a bicyclist in Mesa since the beginning of 2017, the department said in a news release issued Monday. The main cause of these fatalities was pedestrians’ failing to obey traffic laws, according to Mesa police. To help prevent more accidents, police will be stopping pedestrians who are violating traffic laws to advise them about the hazards of crossing the street illegally, police said. “The Mesa Police Department is focused on saving lives, so if you are a pedestrian or bicyclist crossing the roadway in violation of the traffic laws, expect to be contacted by a Mesa police officer,” police said in the statement.

2017 GETTY IMAGES

Nine people, including a bicyclist, have been killed in pedestrian accidents so far this year.

The goal is to educate violators, the statement added. Pedestrians are expected to cross where there is a traffic signal, such as a light or sign, or where a crosswalk is present. Pedestrians should not cross busy streets mid-block or walk in the roadway. In 2015, 5,736 pedestrians on U.S. roads were killed, and in 2014, an average of one pedestrian was killed every two hours and injured every seven minutes, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

said. “It’s an emotional process because people have ties to their schools.” That being said, Mahoney-Paige added that most parents understand that the middle school can’t provide resources like arts and athletics programs when it has so few students and realize that moving to Mesquite could give students those opportunities. “It seems like parents are disappointed that it’s come to this, but they kind of realized it’s the best thing,” MahoneyPaige said. Mahoney-Paige said Mesquite Junior High would still be operating under capacity if the move was approved by the board. If the board decides to close the middle school, another vote will be scheduled to decide whether to make the campus Gilbert Classical Academy’s new home and subsequently allow more students to join the academy.

Strict standards Students at Gilbert Classical Academy are required to take a music class (band, orchestra or choir) from seventh through ninth grades, at which point they can continue music or pursue other electives the school offers, such as psychology or Latin. Dratnol described the school as a “college prep school” and said once students enter 10th grade, they begin taking AP classes, accelerated courses that give students the chance to earn college credit if they score high enough on a year-end exam. In 10th grade, students are required to take AP world history. In 11th grade, they’re required to take AP language and composition, AP physics 1 and AP United States history. Students end their time at the school by taking AP literature and composition, AP calculus and either AP chemistry or AP biology their senior year. Principal Hood said because of the very prescribed curriculum at the school, students have to withdraw from the school if they fail a class. That’s why Dratnol said it might not be for everyone. “It’s tough here and they have to work really, really hard,” Dratnol said. “Sometimes along the journey, I think they’re thinking, ‘Is this really worth it? I could be at a comprehensive high school probably doing at least half of the workload I’m doing here,’ and so I think at the time it’s hard for them to see the big picture.” However, Hood said, when students

go to college, they reap the rewards of having a rigorous high school education. “It is hard and there are kids that resent that until they go to college,” Hood said, adding that the school loses about 20 students per year because of the strict standards. “When they go to college, they always come back and say, ‘It was all worth it, I’m thriving, I’m not the one that’s struggling anymore, I’m the one that’s tutoring the other kids.’ ”

Success creates overcrowding The school’s success currently presents it with a big problem. According to a document released at an April 19 governing board meeting, the academy is operating at 179 percent capacity. That’s meant that the school has had to get creative to continue to serve as many students as possible. The school’s campus is small, without a field or gym. Students use the field at a school across the street and athletes are bused to a gym at the school’s district offices. The cafeteria doubles as an auditorium, but students have to sit on the cafeteria’s floor during assemblies because the school doesn’t have enough chairs to accommodate all its students at once. The school has several portable classrooms, one of which serves as the choir room. However, because of the low ceiling height in the portable structures, there isn’t room for a choir stand. Dratnol said the school has made the most of its logistical challenges. “We have accomplished amazing things in a very small package and with not a lot of facilities to use,” she said. “We need more space. We’ve been very productive, but it is very difficult.” Hood said having a campus with more space to host athletics would help students feel more pride and attachment to the school. “When you have athletics on campus, you get to create that culture, that pride in your school to where ‘hey, I’m going to the game after school,’ so we hang around and do homework and then we go to the game,” Hood said. “We don’t do that here, they always go home.” Dratnol and Hood said they’re hoping the governing board will vote to give the academy a new home, with Dratnol adding that a more comfortable campus could help the school have even more success. “I just think about all the things we’ve done over the last 10 years and our accomplishments and the facilities that we have,” Dratnol said. “If we had an opportunity to have other things, it can’t do anything but enhance what we’ve done so far.”

Police missteps cost Chandler over $300K Man lost eye in 1 incident; arrest challenged JEROD MACDONALD-EVOY THE REPUBLIC | AZCENTRAL.COM

Chandler is paying more than $300,000 in settlements related to two police incidents. One involved a man who set out to help police but found himself thrown against a police vehicle, handcuffed and later arrested at the prompting of a police supervisor. The officer said he felt pressured by his supervisor, who also discouraged him from using a police body camera. The other case involved a bicyclist who lost an eye during an encounter with police. All of the involved officers still work for Chandler. The supervisor was suspended one day without pay. The Chandler City Council voted in late April to settle the cases. In the first case, Luke Hein alleged police misconduct and received $35,000 after the 2014 incident. In the second case, Seferino Varelas alleged police negligence leading to the loss of his eye and received $288,000 after the 2016 incident.

Luke Hein vs. City of Chandler On May 8, 2014, the Chandler Police Department attempted to get Zoe Shunick out of her vehicle after she struck a tree at her apartment complex, according to a notice of claim filed against the city. The car belonged to her boyfriend, Hein, who came out of the apartment to assist. Shunick, who was later convicted of DUI, refused to leave the vehicle and the two officers sought Hein’s help. However, once she was out of the car, the situation went south. One of the officers struck Shunick in the chest, prompting Hein to exclaim, “Hey!” according to the notice of claim his attorney filed with the city. The officers say Shunick was struck when she came after one of them, according to a Chandler police internal-affairs investigation. When Hein objected, Officer Brian Hawkins grabbed him and threw him against the hood of a patrol vehicle as he asked the officer what he did, body-camera footage shows. Hawkins later explained to the internal-affairs investiga-

tor that Hein took an aggressive posture, which worried him that Hein would attack the other officer for hitting his girlfriend. The officer is heard speaking profanely to Hein in the body-camera footage. Hawkins later said he used the expletive as it would be language Hein would “understand,” according to an internalaffairs document. Hawkins initially told Hein he would not arrest him and that he “understood” why Hein got upset, but that changed when his supervisor, Sgt. William Nocella, arrived. “Once the handcuffs go on, he goes to jail,” Nocella is heard saying on the body-camera footage to the officer. “Do you wanna unhandcuff him and get sued again?” Nocella can be heard calling Shunick an “animal.” In the internal-affairs document, Nocella says the reason he called the woman an “animal” was just “theatrics.” Nocella told an investigator he was “embarrassed” about his conduct and said he had been dealing with personal issues. In Hein’s claim against the city, his lawyer said Hein sustained “severe emotional trauma” and injuries that resulted in excessive back pain. Hein also was evicted from his apartment after he was charged with obstructing police, according to the notice of claim. He lived in a hotel for three months while he and Shunick found alternative housing. The charge against Hein was dropped after the court saw the body-camera footage, according to the notice of claim. Nocella is heard on the body-camera footage telling the officer to “make a stretch” in arresting Hein. Nocella later told the investigator it was “simply just a bad use of a metaphor,” according to the internal-affairs document. Hawkins told the investigator he felt Nocella was telling him to “make something up” and that he felt uncomfortable about Nocella’s comments. Nocella later approached Hawkins to try to persuade him to stop wearing the body camera, according to the internalSee MISSTEPS, Page 13

Ben U graduates 1st class that started as freshmen SPECIAL FOR THE REPUBLIC

Daniel F. Rigby, founder of Human Resource Management Systems LLC, told graduating students to maintain a focus on their faith and family and to never stop learning May 20 during his keynote speech at Benedictine University at Mesa’s Third Baccalaureate Mass and Commencement Convocation. Rigby also shared his family’s immigration story and spoke about how his father pushed for his education, which led to the establishment of a multimilliondollar business. The ceremony was held at Shepherd Auditorium at Westwood High School in Mesa and was attended by more than 1,000 people, including Mayor John Giles, Vice Mayor David Luna, Councilman Chris Clover, Chamber of Commerce Director Sally Harrison, Assistant City Manager John Pombier and Assistant to the City Manager Natalie Lewis. The university chaplain, Father

affairs document. “Cameras will never help us; they will only hurt us,” Hawkins said Nocella told him. Heim’s original claim sought more than $1 million. The city agreed to pay him $35,000.

Seferino Varelas vs. City of Chandler On Feb. 17, 2016, Varelas rode his bicycle on California Street, heading south in a northbound lane, according to his notice of claim against Chandler. The police report says Officer Joshua Logan was on his police bicycle when he spotted Varelas riding against traffic, which is against state law. Logan stopped his bike in front of Varelas and told him to stop, but Varelas rode around him and used an expletive toward the officer before saying, “I don’t have any warrants,” according to the police report. The officer followed and commanded

James Aboyi, V.C., represented the Diocese of Phoenix and celebrated Mass prior to commencement. Fifty-six bachelor’s degree candidates, 85 Master of Business Administration candidates and one Master of Science in Management and Organizational Behavior candidate were honored at the ceremony. Benedictine University has been part of the Mesa community since 2012, when it opened an enrollment center at 51 E. Main St. In 2013, the university officially dedicated its first academic building, Gillett Hall, at 225 E. Main St. Classes began in fall 2013, and this year’s commencement marked the first time that the graduating class included students who started at Benedictine University at Mesa as freshmen. Rigby was the president of the prescription drug management company ScriptSave Inc. and developed Illinois Health Search in 1989, a computer-based search engine for small business owners.

Varelas to stop, but Varelas kept saying “no.” Police and Varelas give a slightly different sequence of events for what happened next. According to Varelas’ claim against the city, Logan jumped from his bike onto Varelas and tackled him to the ground. The police report says Logan grabbed Varelas’ arm in an attempt to stop him and ended up shoving him to the ground. Both accounts match from there. Logan was on top of Varelas, who did not resist, and called for backup when he noticed a large amount of blood around Varelas on the ground. Varelas looked up at the officer and screamed as his right eye hung from its socket, according to the police report. When the officer brought Varelas to the ground, his right eye had been impaled on the brake lever. Firefighters treated Varelas before taking him to a nearby hospital. Varelas lost his eye, according to the claim. Varelas’ notice of claim filed with the city originally sought $490,000, but the settlement paid out $288,000. A letter of reprimand was issued to Logan for the incident and an internal-affairs investigation found officers had inadequate training for such situations.

AZ Real Estate COOL HOME

House energy-efficient, zero mortgage Couple proved banks and their friends wrong in building their dream home MICHELLE BEAVER SPECIAL FOR THE REPUBLIC | AZCENTRAL.COM

Rafaela and Ben Gilmore had a dream of building a huge, energy-efficient home and building it without a mortgage. Their friends said they wouldn’t be able to do it. Acquaintances said they wouldn’t be able to do it. Banks were not supportive, either. But they did it. The Gilmores built their dream home, and indeed, there is no mortgage. Energy-efficient? Absolutely. Their 5,000-square-foot home is at Estrella Parkway and the MC85 in Goodyear. The house has four large bedrooms and five bathrooms. Building it took two years, and the Gilmores moved in a year ago. They still have many projects to do, but the house is largely done and they’re happy with it. “We spent more than we wanted to, but we saved a lot by doing so much of the work ourselves,” Ben said. “We never could have afforded this if we hadn’t done the work ourselves.”

MICHELLE BEAVER

The entry area, kitchen, informal dining and living areas in the Gilmore home all blend into each other for ease of movement and to make the space feel larger.

Learning to build There was no general contractor. Ben is not a builder by trade but said he learned a great deal about construction from others and from the Internet. He’s

retired from the Army and now works in information technology. Rafaela is a homemaker. Part of why they wanted such a large home is that they plan to move Ben’s parents and Rafaela’s parents into the home.

The guest bathrooms are handicappedaccessible for that purpose. Rafaela is from Germany, and her parents will be moving from Slovenia. Ben and Rafaela met in 1999 when Ben was stationed in Germany. The house is designed to be open in the communal spaces of the kitchen, dining areas, office and family room, but to be private in the bedroom areas. With that in mind, there are two separate bedroom wings. “We wanted to be able to choose between privacy and being together,” Rafaela said. “We didn’t want small, separate rooms in the community areas. We wanted it more friendly than that. While one is watching TV, one can be reading, someone else can be cooking, and we’re all connected.” The house has 16-foot ceilings, which do wonders for making the space seem even larger. The house also has many windows, and large ones at that, because the Gilmores wanted lots of light. Even more important than the windows being large, the Gilmores wanted them to be energy-efficient. The windows are top of the line, triple pane with a slight tint, and were purchased from a European company.

LINDA COHEN ASK LINDA

How do I handle being snubbed by an old friend? Dear Linda: I have a friend who lives across the country, and our friendship goes back more than 45 years. We have remained close despite the distance. Recently, I found out from a mutual friend that my friend was have big party for a milestone birthday. I hadn’t received an invitation and assumed it may have gotten lost in the mail, so I called my friend. Her response was hurtful. Basically, she said, “We thought it would be a financial hardship to ask you to attend, and besides, your former husband and his wife are attending.” I was floored by the presumptuousness of her response and was speechless, and never said how this made me feel. I think she could have asked me openly about this (over the years there has never been anything but total honesty, and we could talk about anything to each other). As regards my former husband, we get along just fine and his wife has paid me a supreme compliment, saying that she could be a best friend to me if it weren’t for the circumstances. Where do people get off on making assumptions and why didn’t she just ask me directly about finances and the issue of my ex’s attendance? A good local friend said I should write her and tell her how I feel. I don’t want to rock the boat because we have such a long friendship and I don’t believe that burning bridges is a

good idea as we all get older. What do you think is the best course of action? — Baffled and Hurt

83 N Amber Ct, Chandler, AZ 85225

72 N Amber Ct, Chandler, AZ 85225

Dear B&H: I can understand how hurt you are feeling. It’s hard to understand why someone you know so well and has been a confidant for so many years couldn’t just ask you straight out about the situation. It may be partly that she was actually feeling that she was being considerate of your financial situation and didn’t want you to feel pressured. But again, that’s making assumptions. From what you say about your ex and his wife, there wasn’t a valid reason to exclude you. I find that as I get older, I tend to pick battles more carefully, and from what you say, you feel similarly. Do what works for you and not what your local friend suggests, because it apparently feels out of your comfort zone. Instead, you might want to vent your feelings by journaling. State whatever resentment you feel in safety. A valued long-standing friendship is a rarity, as is the history that you both share.

PROPERTY TAX

General Fund

The property taxes repay principal and interest on bonds in order to construct streets, municipal buildings, parks and recreation facilities, etc. The Town does not collect property taxes to pay for ongoing maintenance and operation activities. The resultant levy is budgeted at maximum of $22,300,000, with an effective rate not to exceed $1.06 per $100 in assessed valuation.

The amount paid in property taxes depends on any change in value of property as determined by the Maricopa County Assessor, as well as the specific tax rates the Town, school, county, community college and other agencies adopt. The Town Council will adopt the Budget after a final public hearing on June 15, 2017, at approximately 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 50 E. Civic Center Drive.

the house a “smart home,” such as having an intercom system, the air conditioner and floor heaters running off WiFi and the entertainment system being controlled through cell phones. The heating and cooling is separated in zones so the whole house doesn’t have to be heated or cooled all at once. “We don’t have a wood frame,” Ben said. “Our house is made of insulated concrete form, styrofoam on the outside, then concrete, styrofoam on the inside, and six inches of spray foam between trusses. We really built an efficient home.” The house is solar-powered, and the average monthly electric bill is $25. Ben said that when he and his wife shared their dream of this home with people, they were told they were crazy. They couldn’t get a bank loan, so they used savings and had a little help from

Rafaela’s parents.

Making sacrifices Saving diligently and working hard on the house did have consequences, however. “It was a sacrifice,” Rafaela said. “It was not easy. But we had a vision, and we made it. We spent 16 hours a day of intense planning before we even got the permit. There was no spending money — just house, house, house.” Ben added that the work and planning took away from their social life as well. “We didn’t have much time for friends and family, but for us it was worth it, because the house is paid off and is efficient,” he said. “We still have projects to do, but we’re living here and we can do a little bit at a time as we go.” Eventually, they want to tackle the back yard and get an outdoor kitchen and a pool. “It’s not a final picture of what we want to have, but we got this far and still love each other,” Ben said, laughing. “Step by step will get us there.”

or cat? Will a great blue heron fly off with either? “They shouldn’t bother pets, and eat fish and other aquatic vertebrates/invertebrates,” McGraw says. “They’re clever, stealth hunters and use that long sharp beak like a spear.” And they can be territorial, so keep your distance. If you hear a series of clucking-clicking or squawk sounds, it’s the heron’s defense mechanism telling you to stay back. Think rattlesnake. Just for safety, I’m keeping our little Aussie inside.

Not sure if this beast was nesting as much as doing a drive-by looking for a bite. Should we be concerned for the dog

Pets not in danger

A comprehensive array of treatments from the medical and holistic worlds for better health – naturally

Kevin McGraw, a School of Life Sciences professor at Arizona State, says it was likely a great blue heron, which is fairly common for the desert. “They are found all across North America,” McGraw says. “They’re around year-round and associated with water/wetlands or agricultural fields.” The Valley is surrounded by farmland and sources of water such as golf courses, large man-made water features like lakes in master-planned communities, city and office parks, and in riparian areas along the Salt River bed and Tempe Town Lake. But great blue heron also visit neighborhoods with lots of water, vegetation and ponds, looking for a quick snack, such as koi, goldfish and frogs. They also eat insects and rodents, so maybe it’s a good thing to have them around. “They typically nest in large groups, or rookeries, in wetlands,” McGraw says, so it wouldn’t be surprising to have them nesting in neighborhoods.

Our dogs eat gross stuff. Know we’re not alone in this, but I recently had to practically tackle our younger Australian shepherd to keep him from lapping up what appeared to be monster bird droppings. Geez, what left that thing? And then I saw it and froze. Thought pterodactyls were extinct. A giant, longlegged, turkey-size bird with a long neck and pointy beak marched, no, strutted across my neighbor’s lawn, presumably looking for something to eat. It paused and stretched its expansive grey-blue wings — must have been six feet across. My little Aussie growled. Come on, boy, let’s go inside. You don’t want to tangle with that beast. We’ve grown accustomed to the annual geese migration in the Valley, and I know it wasn’t one of those. Ducks periodically camp in our pool, that’s not it. And I’ve seen and heard owls in the neighborhood. Nope. What the heck is it?

If Trump wins in court, he could deport … Melania If the U.S. Supreme Court agrees with an immigration argument made by the Trump administration, it could lead to the first time in U.S. history that an American first lady is … deported. It’s true. In a case before the court, Justice Department lawyer Robert A. Parker argued in favor of a hardline administration stance that could revoke the citizenship of some naturalized Americans. (So much goes on with Trump that it's difficult to keep up with every possible controversy.) The Trump administration lawyer said that any lie told during the naturalization process should justify denaturalizing the offending citizen and deporting him. Or her. Even the conservative justices on the court were taken aback by such an ex-

inal offense, however minor, even if there was no arrest. Chief Justice John Roberts, asked, by way of example, what would happen if he admitted long after the statute of limitations that he’d actually driven over the speed limit and had not been caught. “If I answer that question ‘no,’ 20 years after I was naturalized as a citizen, you can knock on my door and say, ‘Guess what, you’re not an American citizen after all,’? ” Roberts asked. Parker answered, “If we can prove that you deliberately lied in answering that question, then yes.” Roberts wasn’t buying it. Neither were many of the other justices. If, however, the Trump administration

prevails, a number of court observers have pointed out that among the naturalized citizens who could be tossed out of the country is … Melania Trump. During her naturalization process — as well as during her husband’s presidential campaign — Melania (originally from Slovenia) said that she had not violated any U.S. immigration laws. However, the Associated Press unearthed documents and contracts showing that Melania was paid more than $20,000 for modeling jobs in the United States while she was still on a visitor’s visa. In other words, she had no legal right to work. Such an offense is a lot more egregious than that imagined speeding ticket Justice Roberts talked about. Sooooo ... Trump better hope his hardline lawyers lose this case. Otherwise, the president’s missus might find herself at the top of a deportation list. Giving a whole new meaning to the term “first lady.”

Total Freedom Dental Implant Center Trust. Quality. Conﬁdence. Choice.

Experience Matters!

Total Freedom Dental Implant Center believes we have assembled a truly exceptional team, one that is likely unsurpassed. For example our surgeon Dr. Gerald Kaiser began placing implants at the very beginning of the dental implant era. His experience is truly world class. Because of this experience we have firsthand knowledge of what works but more importantly what doesn’t. We also know when a procedure can be simplified saving patients’ time and money or when a more deliberative process is in the patients’ best interest. As part of the Total Freedom Dental team, Dr. Thomas Sims makes the dental experience a personal one. Dr. Sims has developed a technique that places the teeth in an orthopedically correct position which will be harmonious with the rest of the body. Both Dr. Gerald Kaiser and Dr. Thomas Sims have 25+ years of dental experience and continued education in the dental ﬁeld to ensure you will receive top quality care.

Technology! Technology! Technology!

It has long been established there is no appreciable difference between the various dental implants when it comes to success. They are all made of titanium and heal the same way. Quality in implant dentistry is dependent only upon experience of the dentist and the design and manufacturing of the prosthetic components. Technology is the key to quality. No other implant center can compare itself to the technology we have at Total Freedom Dental Implant Center. For example, the other implant centers point to the 3D cone beam as evidence of their advanced technology; nice, but hardly groundbreaking. All dentist placing dental implants use this technology; it’s considered the standard of care. These same centers also boast of having in house labs. Once again nice but hardly ground breaking because the rudimentary procedures these labs are capable of are not much different from the same procedures and materials your grandparents dentist used in making their dentures. These centers must outsource, losing control of the process, the sophisticated design and manufacturing to large central milling centers that offer the same generic product to dentist worldwide. Compare this to Total Freedom’s Lab where we have invested in the design software, 5 axis milling machines and the technicians to operate them so we can actually manufacture a world class product completely in house. Unlike the others, every step in the process is performed by master technicians under doctor supervision.

More Choices!

Because we control the milling and design we are not limited to the standard materials such as titanium, denture acrylic and denture teeth. We can offer newer metal free materials such as the nano composite Ambarino and the resin reinforced material Trinia. We can manufacture using zirconia with layered porcelain for the best combination of esthetic and strength in a prosthetic designed to last a lifetime.

Christine, actual patient Informed Choices!

With some implant centers patients are left wondering if the solution they are presented is the best one for them or the best one to satisfy some corporate business model, not so with Total Freedom Dental. We pride ourselves in offering choices to meet our patients’ individual goals as long as the request does not conﬂict with sound dental principles and advice. For example, when a patient presents without any teeth the choice is clear, dental implants will always be the best solution. However when teeth are present there is not always a clear choice. Often a full set of dental implants will not be in the patients’ best interest. When teeth can be predictably maintained simply replacing those missing with one or more implants will usually result in the most natural, lifelike result possible. So whether or not you need a single implant, a complete set or even if implants are not needed, you will receive expert care at Total Freedom Dental Implant Center.
