Career and Technical Education is available to students in grades 7-12 in Eatonville School District. CTE consists of classes where students learn skills they can apply in the work world. A student taking a CTE class can take courses ranging from farm management to computer science courses to culinary arts and many courses in between. CTE courses teach to industry standards, so students will be able to apply the knowledge they learn in the classroom to the real-world. CTE classes help students prepare for the future by learning valuable skills to make them more employable.
CTE courses at the middle school level help students explore many areas of interest and help them to discover what classes they would like to take at the high school. Career and Technical Education classes at the high school allow students to dive deeper into areas they are interested in. At the high school level students are able to obtain free college credits and industry certifications by taking CTE classes. By taking CTE courses students gain valuable lifelong skills that will help them for many years to come.
A large crowd of parents, visitors and the School Board was treated to a showcase of Career and Technical Education displays and demonstrations from the high school, middle school and GRITS programs at the school board work study. Teachers and students were on hand to share and answer questions. This interactive event was organized by Kelly Powell, CTE director, following her power point presentation. She also highlighted the expansion of the program next year with additional opportunities for students at all levels. Powell gave a shout out to Allison Burslem who secured $9,200 for Project Lead the Way at CCA which means it is at all schools now.

Every county in Washington will soon get their yearly injection of funds from the feds in exchange for federally-owned land within their borders. For some, this dollar amount will be as low as zero; for others, it will be in the millions. In Washington, that number totals $27.1 million for this year.
Payments in Lieu of Taxes, or PILT funds, are “federal payments to local governments to help offset losses in property taxes due to the existence of nontaxable Federal lands within their boundaries” and are administered by the Department of the Interior.
For the 2023 fiscal year, the number totals $578.8 million nationwide and is disbursed by county.
“PILT payments help local governments carry out vital services, such as firefighting and police protection, construction of public schools and roads, and search-and-rescue operations,” said Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy, Management and Budget Joan Mooney in a news release accompanying the announcement. “We are grateful for our ongoing partnerships with local jurisdictions across the country who help the Interior Department fulfill our mission on behalf of the American public.”
Enshrined in Title 31, Subtitle 5, Chapter 69 of the United States Code, the DOI has disbursed over $11.3 billion in PILT payments
Dear Savvy Senior, My 63-year-old wife, who’s doesn’t work, is on my health insurance plan through my employer. When I retire next month and go on Medicare, what are our options for getting her health coverage until she turns 65? Is there some kind of Medicare coverage for dependent spouses?
Dear Need,
Unfortunately, Medicare does not provide family coverage to younger spouses or dependent children when you qualify for Medicare. Nobody can obtain Medicare bene ts before age 65, unless eligible at a younger age because of disability. With that said, here are your best options for covering your wife.
A ordable Care Act: In most cases, your best choice is to get your wife an individual health insurance policy through the A ordable Care Act (ACA) health insurance Marketplace (a.k.a. Obamacare). e Marketplace o ers comprehensive health coverage, and she won’t be denied coverage or charged extra for
preexisting health conditions.
And thanks to the American Rescue Plan and In ation Reduction Act, the Marketplace now provides enhanced subsidies through 2025. If your income falls below the 400 percent poverty level a er you retire – anything below $73,240 for a couple or $54,360 for a single in 2023 – your wife will be eligible for a tax credit that will reduce the amount you’ll have to pay for her policy. e Marketplace also ensures that households with incomes above that 400 percent poverty level will not have to pay more than 8.5 percent of their income for a benchmark policy.
To see how much subsidy you may be eligible for, use Kaiser Family Foundation calculator at KFF.org/ interactive/subsidy-calculator.
To shop for Marketplace plans in your state, visit HealthCare.gov or call 800-318-2596. Or, if you want some extra help, contact a Marketplace-certi ed agent or broker at HealthCare.gov/ nd-assistance.
COBRA: Another option is the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA), which is a federal law that would allow your wife to remain with your company insurance plan for at
least 18 months a er you make the switch to Medicare. But not every employer plan is COBRA eligible. Contact your employer bene ts administrator to nd out if yours is one of them.
You also need to be aware that COBRA is not cheap, requiring you to pay the full monthly premium yourself. But, if you’ve already met or nearly met your employer plan’s deductible or out-of-pocket maximum for the year, and don’t want your wife to start over with a new plan; or if you nd your employer’s health plan to be more a ordable than the Marketplace plans, it makes sense for your wife to keep her current coverage under COBRA.
Short-Term Health Insurance: If you can’t nd an a ordable Marketplace plan and COBRA is too expensive, the next option is short-term health insurance. ese plans, which are not available in every state, are cheaper, bare-bones health plans that provide coverage for one to 12 months and may be renewed for up to three years in some states. But be aware that short-term plans don’t comply with the ACA so they can deny sick people coverage, they don’t cover preexisting conditions, and they can exclude
coverage essentials like prescription drugs.
To nd and compare shortterm health plans, try sites like eHealthInsurance.com or PivotHealth. com.
Healthcare sharing ministries: One other coverage option you should know about is healthcare sharing ministries (HCSM). ese are cost-sharing health plans in which members – who typically share a religious belief – make monthly payments to cover expenses of other members, including themselves. HCSM’s are cheaper than paying full out-of-pocket costs for traditional health insurance but be aware that HCSM’s are not health insurance. ey don’t have to comply with the consumer protections of the ACA. ey can also reject or limit coverage for having pre-existing health issues and can limit how much you’ll be reimbursed for your medical costs.
To look for HCSM plans, comparison shop at the three largest providers: SamaritanMinistries. org, MyChristianCare.org and Chministries.org.

to 49 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands since payments began in 1977.
Rhode Island is the lone
exception, having a small enough ratio of federal land within its borders to not qualify under the formula used to calculate payouts. at formula is based on “population, revenue-sharing
payments, and the amount of Federal land within an a ected county,” according to the DOI website. e weight of those various factors can be seen in the funds disbursed.
Chelan and Okanogan counties only have 81,060 and 42,398 residents, respectively, yet receive a more sizable share of the federal monies due to the outsized federal acreage within their borders.
Meanwhile, King and Pierce counties, despite having relatively low acreages of federal land at 358,464 and 338,079, respectively, get more due to their outsized populations.

Once a novelty in select stores, rotisserie chicken is now ubiquitous in supermarkets and other food centers. People are drawn to rotisserie chickens by avor and convenience. Hot and ready to serve, rotisserie chicken makes for a quick and easy meal when time is of the essence and people don’t want to spend on dining out at a nearby restaurant. Rotisserie chicken can be served right out of the container just like a traditional roasted chicken. It also can be a component in many di erent meals. Consider these 10 ideas for putting rotisserie chicken to use:
1. A er most of the meat from the chicken is eaten, boil the carcass with sliced onion, parsnips, carrots, turnips, and your preferred herbs to make a soup stock. Add bits of le over chicken and noodles to have a delicious chicken soup.
2. Purchase premade pie crust and use it to line small ramekins. Mix chopped rotisserie chicken with a can of cream of chicken soup and thawed frozen mixed vegetables. Spoon the mixture on top of the bottom crust, then top with another crust round, poking venting holes in the pastry. Heat up until the crust browns and the lling is piping hot. e result is a delicious chicken pot pie.
3. Rotisserie chicken can be used as the

lling for enchiladas, fajitas, and tacos. Simply season with a packet of taco seasoning or make your own blend from a combination of paprika, chili powder and cumin.
4. Pulse rotisserie chicken meat in a food processor with celery, dill and a few dollops of mayonnaise or even Greek yogurt or ranch salad dressing. Add some crumbled bacon and serve the chicken salad between slices of toasted whole wheat bread.
5. Shred the rotisserie chicken and blend together with melted butter and hot sauce to make it Bu alo-style. Use it as a topping for pizza served with a bluecheese sauce on the crust.
6. Add pieces of rotisserie chicken to omelettes and top with melted cheese for a savory breakfast or brunch option.
7. Rotisserie chicken chunks can be added to any of your favorite casserole recipes in lieu of fresh chicken.
8. Make mac-and-cheese a more substantial meal by mixing in shredded rotisserie chicken.
9. Recreate “chicken bog,” a traditional South Carolina dish made from chicken cooked in broth and rice to make a thick and creamy meal.
10. Create a chicken stir-fry with the rotisserie chicken, Asian vegetables and seasonings. Serve over glass rice noodles. ese are just a few of the many di erent ways to utilize rotisserie chicken in everyday cooking.

Alice Dowie RoyAt the June 12 Eatonville town council meeting, town administrator Seth Boettcher provided an update on the SR161 Washington Avenue North Corridor Streetscape Project. While the construction workers are momentarily running out of work due to utility con icts, council members scurried to nd ways to clear construction of the area in anticipation of Independence Day.
“ ere’s some nal things that they need to nish up this week, and then they’re going to have a hiatus and put that o until they come back, and put in the lights,” Boettcher said. e streetscape project is stuck at a standstill in phase 2. On April 11, 2022, the council approved Resolution 2022-T, which relates to funding for the second phase of the construction. Currently, the contractors are waiting on materials, including streetlights.
One council member became vocal when she questioned the timing of the contractors, for the purpose of getting rid of the bulldozers and materials on the road for July 4th events.
e council member’s concerns were related to the construction taking up available parking for events, and safety concerns due to inaccessible sidewalks.
“ ere was a big pickup in productivity in April and May,” Boettcher said. “ at was KBG holding them [to account], that when they had walked o the job earlier and continued to charge working days…they did not want to get into going over the contract time.”
Res. 2022-T provided a maximum of approximately $404,417 in funding, and while Boettcher did not have an exact number of days it will take for the contractors to wrap up, he expects it to be no more
than ten. e construction workers are taking time o while waiting for materials to arrive, according to Boettcher, who added that it’s the most e cient way for them to nish the project while staying within the contract.
An examination of KPG Psomas Inc.’s scope of work, dated April 20, includes the contractors having to remove existing pavement and resurface it, install street trees, and a new illumination system. A general assumptions portion of the document states that the consultant’s project duration was 120 working days of construction due to the consultant’s original level of service, and the document estimates an additional 15 working days.
“ ere have been multiple con icts that have increased the burden to manage the project,” stated the document. “ ese include unknown utility con icts, and a Contractor who challenges every aspect of the documentation and disagrees with our interpretation of the Contract regarding the temporary lighting system. e Contractor has also led two intents to claim which will take an additional time to address. ese have caused extended discussions beyond what could have been reasonably expected.”
e Eatonville town council passed Res. 2023-Y, which allows for approximately $102,025 in maximum funding from the electric and REET funds for KPG Psomas Inc. to fully execute the streetscape project. e term of the contract is set to expire on Dec. 31.
While additional funding for additional working construction days is secured, council members have yet to decide how exactly to clear up construction to free up parking for July 4.

Continuing the work laid out in his Executive Order focused on making Seattle a safer, healthier city by addressing the crisis of fentanyl and synthetic drugs, Mayor Bruce Harrell has appointed a 24-member work group uniting the four corners of Seattle government — the Mayor’s O ce, Seattle City Council, Seattle Municipal Court, and Seattle City Attorney — along with leaders in law enforcement, diversion programs, and service provision to advance e ective and sustainable solutions addressing illegal drug use in public spaces.
“We are committed to addressing the deadly public health crisis playing out on our streets, holding dealers accountable for tra cking illegal drugs harming our communities, and advancing innovative health strategies to help those struggling with substance use disorder,” Harrell said. “ ere is a time for appropriate constitutional arrests when people are posing a threat to others; however, when people are a threat only to themselves, they need compassionate treatment. Updating the Seattle Municipal Code to align with recently passed state law makes sense, as does demonstrating how this additional tool will be applied and how it ts in the broader spectrum of treatment and diversion options.”
Harrell announced that in the coming weeks, the Mayor’s O ce will submit a new ordinance to reconcile Seattle Municipal Code with state law on public consumption of illegal drugs and describe and codify how that law will be applied. A subset of the larger Fentanyl Systems Work Group called for in the mayor’s Executive Order, this group will de ne solutions, improve system coordination, and develop implementation strategies. As the larger work group begins to assess diversion and treatment systems, it will expand to include additional stakeholders, including public health partners and public and private treatment providers.
