King makes another bid for Second District seat ALEX KOMA

emocrat Josh King is launching another bid for the Second District seat in Virginia’s House of Delegates, aiming to represent parts of Prince William and Stafford counties now that Del. Mark Dudenhefer isn’t planning to seek reelection. King announced that he would be making his second run for the seat on Jan. 16. The Iraq veteran lost to Dudenhefer in 2015 by just 125 votes. “I am incredibly excited JOSH KING to start talking with voters across Prince William and Stafford County,” King said in a statement. “I plan to spend the next several months talking about improving our schools, shortening our commutes and most importantly creating jobs. We need to ensure that every child in Virginia has access to a world class education, that we invest in transit and new technology industries, and that we ease our over reliance on the federal government.” Dudenhefer will represent the district through this year’s General Assembly session, but he announced Jan. 6 that he wouldn’t run for reelection this November. He represented the district in Richmond for two nonconsecutive terms, first winning the seat in 2011, then losing it to Democrat Michael Futrell in 2013 and narrowly besting King in 2015. Now, King’s campaign is calling the soonto-be open seat “the best opportunity in Virginia for Democrats to pick up a seat in the House of Delegates,” a chamber that currently favors Republicans by a 65-34 margin. Since announcing his bid, SECOND several prominent DemoPAGE 13 crats have endorsed King’s

STAFFORD BRIEFS TWO JUVENILES CHARGED, ONE SOUGHT IN VEHICLE LARCENIES Two juveniles face multiple charges of breaking into cars and stealing items from inside on Kings Crest Drive on Jan. 17, Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman M.C. Morris Moncure said. Just before 3 a.m., Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office deputies responded to a call about three suspicious people on the street. They were wearing black clothes and white masks, and were seen breaking into vehicles, police said. Three people matching the description were seen together on Brenwick Court, but when they saw law enforcement, they began to run. One of the suspects – a 14-year-old boy–was detained. A search recovered an MK Clutch purse, a five-inch knife with a sheath, marijuana and several credit cards and receipts that did not belong to him. The teen confessed to deputies that he entered the unlocked vehicles, Morris Moncure said. He also identified two other juveniles involved in the larcenies. Another juvenile, who was being chased, dropped a backpack in a wooded area behind Potomac Hills Road. The backpack contents included multiple knives, a pellet gun, smoking devices and a watch. Deputies were later able to detain one of the juveniles on a path near Cliff Circle. Multiple charges were filed with

Juvenile Court Services, including credit card theft, entering or setting in motion a vehicle, obstructing justice, petit larceny, possession of concealed weapons, tampering with vehicles and possession of marijuana. The third juvenile involved in the larcenies is still being sought and the investigation continues, Morris Moncure said.

ALLEGED PUBLIC INTOXICATION BRINGS ADDITIONAL CHARGES An intoxicated Spostylvania man brought additional charges upon himself Jan. 16 near the Knight’s Inn on Warrenton Road in south Stafford, Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman M.C. Morris GEORGE DELAMoncure said. NY GRAVES, III George Delany Graves, III, 29, of Red Hill Road in Spotsylvania, was charged with assault and battery of a police officer/firefighter/medical personnel, disorderly conduct, public swearing and intoxication. Just before 11:30 p.m., a Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office deputy responded to a disturbance in near the Knight’s Inn, located at 386 Warrenton Road. There, Graves was lying on the asphalt in the front parking lot. His lips were covered in blood and there was a cut above his eye brow. He appeared to be intoxicated and was having trouble standing on his own. A woman was attempting to

assist him, Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman M.C. Morris Moncure said. As police approached, Graves shouted a stream of expletives toward them. The woman told police that Graves had a verbal argument in one of the hotel rooms with another man. As Graves was leaving the hotel room, the man pushed him and he fell in the parking lot, she said. Graves was incarcerated at the Rappahannock Regional Jail on no bond.

prior to the check clearing the bank, according to the sheriff ’s office. The buyer might claim an urgent situation and request some of the “overpaid” money be returned. The check would have been worthless and the seller would have lost the money he returned in good faith. While there are a number of different scenarios that might have played out, the person attempting the fraud would have tried to get money returned on a forged check. For more information, see this article on eBay lookalike scams at bit.ly/2ht5Vhj .or visit staffordsheriff.com. Report suspicious activity by using the sheriff ’s office non-emergency number, 540-658-4400.

SHERIFF’S OFFICE WARNS OF SCAM The Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office is warning local residents to be mindful of potential scams when buying items online. A local resident recently contacted the sheriff ’s office to report that he listed a product on Craigslist for $150. A buyer named “David Martinez” from California sought to purchase the item and planned to send a check, the seller reported. A few days later, the seller received a check for $960. The buyer explained that $800 should be paid to movers who would pick up the item and the seller could keep the balance. The alert seller took the check to the bank prior to depositing it and discovered that it was forged, according to M.C. Moncure, public information officer for the Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office. If the seller had deposited the check he may have been contacted by “the buyer”

InsideNoVa is sickened by the proliferation of “fake news” – or what we prefer to call digital propaganda – spreading across the desktops and mobile devices of millions of Americans. Although we believe Americans need to be discerning about where they get their news, there are other forces at play. The ad-tech community has rewarded fake news by paying its creators for each click to these deceitful sites. Some advertisers have been careless about where their ads run. Consumers have been vulnerable to misinformation from fake news sites. And publishers need to be more careful about accepting ads from dubious sites. That is why the Local Media Consortium (LMC), of which we are a member, and its partners are issuing a call to its members and readers to help prevent the dissemination of fake news. The LMC is a strategic partnership of local media companies representing more than 1,600 news sites across the U.S. that has banded together to use the latest technologies and partnerships with digital companies to help local journalism thrive. Consortium partners are heavily vetted, high-quality companies and service providers such as Google, Yahoo! and Monster.com that share the LMCs values, priorities and commitment to foster growth in the digital age. Together, the LMC and Consortium Partners encourage its members and readers to:

REFUSE TO REWARD FAKE NEWS

The ad-tech and publishing industries have the power to affect the financial incentive outlets receive for spreading falsehoods. The LMC urges its members, partners and the ad-tech industry to more fully vet the companies and organizations with which it does business. Google has committed to developing policies to keep

ads off fake news sites, and others must follow suit. The LMC, whose footprint currently spans 155 million unique monthly visitors, is working with its members and partners to help ensure reputable companies producing genuine news coverage and best-in-industry ad rates are rewarded, while banning those pushing propaganda.

SUPPORT LOCAL MEDIA

The national media do not have the local connections and context to cover what is going on outside top media markets. Consumers and corporate America must recognize the value of reputable, local news organizations. Get to know your local journalists and broadcasters. Follow them on social media. When you read a “news” story, become familiar with its source and confirm that it is associated with a reputable parent news organization by reading its About Us descriptions. Confirm that articles by that news outlet have real comments from real followers dating back many months.

ACKNOWLEDGE THAT FAKE NEWS IS NOT NEWS AT ALL

Although the content on dishonest sites may be referred to as “fake news,” the LMC asks that the industry remember that this kind of news is not news at all. Rather it is purposeful misinformation, misdirection and propaganda. The LMC calls on its members and the industry as a whole to remind those within the business and political arenas that we have high journalistic standards. We thank you for taking time to focus on this important issue impacting our communities, and for joining us in our commitment to protect against the ills of fake news and the sustainability of honest journalism. (Editorial excerpted from the Local Media Consortium’s position paper on “digital propaganda,” which can be found at http://www.localmediaconsortium.com/fakenews/)

Stafford schools make finance progress It’s been a slow process, but the Stafford County school system has gradually implemente d much needed reforms in its budgeting and fiDAVID KERR nancial planning. Now, before you go to sleep – because nothing puts people to sleep quite like discussing accounting – remember that over 60 percent of your county tax money goes to schools. That should wake you up. Also remember that just last year there was serious concern, covering a period of several years, about the haphazard way the school administration had been managing its money. Now there is some improvement and that’s news. So, do your best to stay awake. For a time it seemed as if financial management was something of an ongoing calamity. With this problem or that, but the one issue that brought it all to light was a “lost” account —nearly $9 million of salary savings. What’s more, it really was lost. The board, acting in good faith cut personnel funding not realizing that that they still had a substantial amount of money in the bank. When it came to light, the school board and the board of supervisors were, in the words of Queen Victoria, not amused. During that period the school board decided to have a look back to see what

happened. What they found was a highly dysfunctional accounting system. There was a mix of manual and automated spread sheets. It was bad accounting, but it also indicated a badly managed school administration. This was the world that Superintendent Bruce Benson, who was hired in 2014, walked into. It couldn’t have been fun. Every day seemed to offer a new controversy. But the good news is that through some steady and deliberate efforts, the school system has automated and structured its financial management systems. For instance the days of transferring funds between accounts without administration or school board permission are over. If someone tries it, an automated flag comes up that says the person trying to move the money can’t do it without approval. That’s a big step in the right direction. Another process, seemingly small but important, is that the financial management office is required to track and report all “savings” that accrue during the year. This means there is far less chance of excess funds building up in a relatively unknown account. There is also some heartening news when it comes to looking at trends, both in terms of costs and revenues. For so many years, the schools did their budget analysis from year-to-year. A few brave school board members might talk about long range this or that, but mostly these intrepid souls heard the sighs of their fellow members and staff. EDUCATION

BUSINESS

OPINION

Now, the school system does a regular analysis, looking at least three years down the road. That’s a good start. Though longer term looks are a good idea too. These are encouraging steps and Dr. Benson and the school board deserve credit for moving away from the bad old days. But there are things yet to be done. For one, the school system desperately needs a proper finance and accounting manual. They’re working on it and it deserves a high priority—maybe higher than it’s getting at the moment. But topping the list is hiring a chief financial officer (CFO). This position is critical, particularly if current reforms are to stay in place, and it’s taken far too long to find one. The board is working on it, but so far hasn’t found that person. My response is to work harder. Putting the responsibility for finance, a complicated and difficult responsibility, under central authority it essential. Until then, we are always at risk of returning to an undisciplined system. Also Dr. Benson is an education guy, not a budget person, and it’s an unwise use of resources to put him in that position. A strong CFO could bring all of the county school system’s financial loose ends together. When it comes to finance, Stafford’s schools aren’t out of the woods yet. There is still the risk of backsliding, but the picture looks far more encouraging than it did just a year ago. David Kerr can be reached at Staff ordNews@insidenova.com. SPORTS

STAFFORD BRIEFS HIP-HOP ARTIST-ACTOR DAVID BANNER TO SPEAK AT GERMANNA COLLEGE Hip-hop artist and actor David Banner will appear at Germanna Community College on Feb. 11 to discuss his experiences with hip hop, Hollywood and political and social activism. The free event is open to the public and will take place at 1 p.m. in room 212 in the Dickinson Building at GCC’s Fredericksburg-area campus in Spotsylvania. Banner appeared in the 2013 film, “The Butler” and the 2014 movie, “Ride Along.” The campus is located at 10000 Germanna Point Drive, off U.S. 17 near Cosner’s Corner. NSHS STUDENT CHOSEN FOR U.S. SENATE YOUTH PROGRAM North Stafford High School student Mazzen Shalaby will serve as a delegate to the 55th annual United States Senate Youth Program in March. Mazzen is one of 104 student delegates chosen from Virginia to attend the annual Washington Week, which will take place March 4-11 in Washington, D.C. The program was created in 1962 and has been sponsored by the Senate and fully funded by The Hearst Foundations since its inception. Each year the program brings its participants to Washington, D.C. for a week-long study of the federal government and the people who lead it.

The goal of the program is to help instill in the participants a more profound knowledge of the American political process and a lifelong commitment to public service. The students will also each receive a $10,000 undergraduate college scholarship with encouragement to continue coursework in government, history and public affairs. Transportation and all expenses for Washington Week are provided by The Hearst Foundations. The student delegates rank academically in the top one percent of their states among high school juniors and seniors. Delegates are selected after nomination from their teachers and principals. In 2016, Mazzen won the Conference 15 Golf Championship, the National AP Scholar award and the American Legion Post 290 Oratorical Competition. Mazzen hopes to major in public policy at Princeton University and aspires to serve as an elected official.

STAFFORD DEMOCRATS SEEK CANDIDATES FOR LOCAL OFFICE The Stafford Democratic Committee is seeking candidates to run for local and legislative offices in 2017, the committee announced. Four supervisor seats are up for election, as well as four non-partisan school board seats. Additionally, all Virginia

House of Delegate offices are up for election this year, including House Districts 2, 28 and 88 that serve Stafford County. “Please let us know if you are even remotely interested in running for office or if you would like to recommend someone as a potential candidate,” John Johnson Jr., chair of the Stafford Democratic Committee, said. Currently there are no representatives of the Democratic Party serving as local supervisor or legislative positions up for election this year. “Our community deserves to have all of its views represented,” Johnson said. “The Republican Party has a monopoly here. We are willing to work hard to change that, but we need solid, articulate, informed candidates to help carry our banner.” The Democratic Party of Virginia will also be nominating Democrats to run for governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general in 2017. Recently former Congressman Tom Perriello announced his intention to face present Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam for the Democratic nomination for governor. So far three candidates have declared for lieutenant governor, Justin Fairfax, Susan Platt and Gene Rossi, and incumbent Mark Herring is seeking reelection as attorney general. For information about what is involved in running for office and the Democratic Party’s nominating process, mail chair@ stafforddemocrats.org.

LIVING WITH DOGS | LAURIE C. WILLIAMS

Purebred puppy shaming I used to breed and show Irish Terriers 30-plus years ago, but boy am I glad I don't breed dogs anymore. Currently there is such an anti-breeding sentiment regardless of what a person's breeding practices are, to the point of where even suggesting that you want a purebred puppy can result in immediate shaming. On social media I've seen people who have expressed an interest in getting a purebred puppy from a breeder strong armed, bullied or guilt tripped into getting a rescue instead, with hurtful phrases like "Adopt, never shop" or “When you buy a dog, you kill a shelter dog." All this does is cause alienation and bad feelings. I've shared my home with both purebreds and rehomed dogs, and I make no distinction between the two. Like most, I've chosen dogs based on which will best fit in with my family and lifestyle at the time. People should not have to defend their reasons or choices to anyone else. Yes, it's indisputable that the pet overpopulation, the number of dogs in rescue and euthanized each year is disgraceful. However there are some very legitimate reasons a person might choose to get a purebred puppy from a reputable breeder. And yes, I do believe there are still reputable breeders out there who love and do all they can to preserve the integrity of their chosen breeds. This depiction of all breeders as money-grubbing puppy millers is unfair.

I personally know many people who lose money showing and breeding dogs, but they continue because they love that breed. They have impeccable breeding practices, scrupulously clean and hygienic kennels and puppy nurseries, and implement proper pre-breeding genetic testing and screening to decrease the risk for their breeds' predisposed health problems. Further, they properly socialize the puppies in their litters, closely screen prospective puppy buyers and impose tight spay/neuter contracts. These types of breeders may not be typical, but they do exist. If someone, particularly a new or firsttime dog parent, wants to research and select the best breed for his/her particular lifestyle, find a reputable breeder like those mentioned above, and wants to experience raising a dog from a puppy to adult, why should he be made to feel guilty about that personal choice? Since we know that a large portion of dogs end up in rescue and shelters because of training and behavior issues, wouldn't the cause be better served by educating prospective puppy parents about responsible dog parenting. Rather than berate them, help them find the proper training resources to ensure their puppy will have a forever home with them?

When you choose to bring a dog into your life, bought or adopted, it should be a commitment for life, and the bond and relationship you cultivate together can be equally beautiful. After all, no matter how I obtained my dogs, they've rescued me in their own special way and added so

much joy to my life that otherwise would be missing. Stafford business owner Laurie C. Williams, CPDT-KA, is a television and radio personality, and nationally recognized dog trainer. She can be reached at info@ pupniron.com

AT THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY

STAFFORD COUNTY NAACP AT THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY

The 2017 Virginia State Conference of the NAACP’s Lobby Day was held Tuesday at the General Assembly building in Richmond. Members of the NAACP, including from the Stafford branch, were able to meet with legislators and attend General Assembly sessions to share their concerns about proposed legislation and current laws in Virginia.

House OKs bill to ease rule on concealed gun permits » BY NICK VERSAW

VCU Capital News Service

» RICHMOND – A legislative subcommittee killed an attempt Tuesday to repeal Virginia’s requirement that voters show a photo ID at the polls. A subcommittee of the House Privileges and Elections Committee voted to shelve HB 1904, which would have eliminated the mandate that registered Virginia voters present a driver’s license, passport or other government-issued photo ID in order to vote. Republicans say the photo ID requirement prevents voter fraud. But the bill’s sponsor, Democratic Del. Steve Heretick of Portsmouth, said it prevents people from voting. “We can’t point to any incidence of voter fraud that any registrar, that anyone on the Board of Elections, that anyone can point to,” Heretick said. However, Clara Belle Wheeler, vice chairwoman of the State Board of Elections, disputed that. “I can tell you there are people who will try to vote twice. The law is very clear: It is one vote, one person. Period,” Wheeler said. “When someone votes twice, they disenfranchise someone who votes once.” Wheeler said states with voter photo ID laws have a higher electoral participation from “all people living in that state, no matter their race, their creed or their ethnic origin.” Heretick disagreed. He cited studies showing that racial minorities, young adults and individuals who make less than $25,000 a year are less likely than other people to have a photo ID. “I think we all understand why

these bills exist. Unfortunately, I think there are better ways to administer elections than imposing these additional requirements on both voters and registrars,” Heretick said. His bill would have allowed Virginians to vote by showing their voter registration card or “a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or other government document that shows the name and address of the voter.” Voter photo ID laws have been a point of contention between Democrats and Republicans in many states. Federal courts recently held that laws passed by Texas and North Carolina violated the Voting Rights Act. The Virginia General Assembly passed the state’s photo ID law in 2013. In December, a federal judge upheld it as constitutional. The subcommittee also voted to “pass by indefinitely” two other bills that would have made voting easier: • HB 1462, introduced by Del. Richard Sullivan, D-Arlington, would have allowed students to present out-of-state university student IDs to vote in Virginia. • HB 1953, sponsored by Del. Betsy Carr, D-Richmond, would have allowed voters to present a photo ID from a state-run nursing home. Opponents of the bills noted that registered voters can receive free photo ID cards from the state. Virginians who vote absentee by mail do not have to show a photo ID. However, that could change. The Elections Subcommittee approved a bill to require voters to submit a copy of their photo ID with their absentee ballot.

RICHMOND – The Virginia House of Delegates approved a bill Wednesday to allow members of the military to obtain concealed handgun permits at age 18. HB 1582, introduced by Del. Jeff Campbell, R-Marion, passed by a vote of 78-19. It will now go to the Senate for consideration. The bill would allow active-duty military personnel and those with an honorable discharge between the ages of 18 and 20 to receive concealed handgun permits, provided they have completed basic training. The current minimum age for a concealed handgun permit is 21. Under federal law, it is illegal for anyone under 21 to purchase a handgun from a licensed firearm dealer. However, Virginians between 18 and 20 can legally buy a handgun in a private sale or receive one as a gift. Del. Marcus Simon, D-Fairfax, cited that reason in opposing the bill. “We don’t think it’s smart to let 18- and 19- and 20-year-olds who can’t legally purchase a firearm from carrying concealed,” he said when the bill was debated Tuesday. Del. Scott Lingamfelter, R-Woodbridge, disagreed. “I see no harm at all in trusting young men and women who were ready to give their lives for our freedom” to have a concealed handgun permit, he said. Del. Nick Freitas, R-Culpepper, echoed Lingamfelter. “We don’t seem to have any problem putting a gun in their hands when they’re going to go overseas to get shot at,” he said. “So this whole idea that we can’t trust them when they come back to exercise the very constitutional amendment they went overseas to defend seems a little bit ridiculous to me.” Campbell said the bill also would increase concealed handgun permit reciprocity with other states. Currently, Virginia permits are recogNEWS

nized throughout the Southeast except in Georgia. Campbell said his bill would change that by “removing the sole impediment to recognition of Virginia concealed carry permit holders by the state of Georgia,” thereby granting permit holders full passage throughout the southern I-95 corridor. “As a practical matter, this is a good bill for those of us who like to travel out of state on the East Coast,” Lingamfelter said. Campbell said the bill is another step toward his party’s goal of concealed handgun permit reciprocity across all 50 states. Currently, Virginia permits are recognized in 32 states. Simon said he fears that in expanding reciprocity, Virginia may be headed down a slippery slope. “We’re going to have to lower our standards in state after state after state to make sure that our laws are just as generous to concealed carry permit holders and that we have the lowest standards of any state in the country,” Simon said. “It is the first step in having us liberalize our concealed carry permits to go to the lowest common denominator.” Permit reciprocity has been a hotbutton issue among Virginia officials. In December 2015, Attorney General Mark Herring revoked Virginia’s permit reciprocity agreements with 25 states. However, during its 2016 session, the General Assembly passed legislation reversing Herring’s decision and restoring all previous reciprocity agreements. With Donald Trump’s election as president, the issue of permit reciprocity has risen to prominence at the federal level. This month, U.S. Rep. Richard Hudson, R-N.C., introduced the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 in Congress. Hudson’s proposal would force all 50 states to recognize permits from all other states. The bill is awaiting hearing in the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security and Investigations.

Greenings posts big numbers at Pittsburgh-Bradford » BY DAVID DRIVER

For InsideNoVa

Evan Greening began his college basketball career by averaging 19 points and 11 rebounds per game as a freshman in 2013-14 at Division III Penn State-Altoona. The Stafford High graduate was the AMCC Newcomer of the Year, ranked second in NCAA Division III for offensive rebounds per game and set school marks for points and rebounds in a game. He then shot 61 percent from the field as a sophomore to break his own school record. But Greening transferred after two seasons to Division III University of Pittsburgh-Bradford and the move had nothing to do with basketball. “The move was all about academics,” Greening said last week. “I started in biology [at Penn State-Altoona] and realized that is not where I wanted to be. I started to take some education courses and I found out that is where I wanted to be. Coaching is where I wanted to be. Bradford just turned out to be the best academically and athletically.” He looked at several other schools, including Frostburg State in Maryland, Mary Washington and some schools in North Carolina. But he decided to stay in western Pennsylvania, where his mother grew up. Greening is now a dual major in social studies education and history, and is on track to graduate in April from Pittsburgh-Bradford, which is in the same league as Penn State-Altoona. “I knew a few of the guys having played against them,” Greening said. “The staff (at Bradford) really liked my inside presence. It took about a week and I fit in.” The past two seasons he has faced his former team, Penn State-Altoona. But his former coach there is now an athletic trainer in Florida. “It was definitely weird. Playing against them wasn’t something I fully grasped,” said Greening, who had 16 points and 20 rebounds in a win Jan. 4 against Penn State-Altoona. On the court he is in his second season at Bradford and as a 6-foot-4 senior center he continues to put up big numbers.

In his first 13 games this year he averaged 20.5 points and 13.9 rebounds per contest. He was shooting 55.2 percent from the field and 71 percent from the foul line. “He has that knack (for the ball). He just keeps going until he gets it,” said Britt Moore, the head coach at Pitt-Bradford. His team began the year 6-7 overall and 4-4 in conference play. Pitt-Bradford hosts La Roche on Saturday, Jan. 21. “Our team is pretty different from last year. We had two returning starters,” Greening said. “We are starting to hit our stride lately.” Last season as a junior Greening started all 27 games and led the AMCC in scoring (20.5) and rebounds (11.6) as a first-team all-conference player. He was one of just four players in the league to average a double-double and he was third in the nation with 17 doubledoubles. Greening was also an AMCC All-Academic team pick and he had a season-high 33 points on Jan. 6, 2016 against Hilbert. He had 18 rebounds in back-to-back games last season and had five games of at least 17 boards. Earlier this season he had 32 points and 14 rebounds while making 14 of 20 shots from the field in a win against Geneva by a score of 87-74. Greening hopes to be an assistant coach or graduate assistant in basketball at the college level next season. He has looked into possible positions at Waynesburg and York in Pennsylvania, Pfeiffer in North Carolina and a school in Florida. “I think he would be great because of his work ethic. He comprehends the hours that it takes,” Moore said. Other Stafford products with college basketball teams this winter include senior forward Ignacio Alleyne, a Colonial Forge High graduate with Penn StateBeaver; and sophomore Marco Haskins, a Colonial Forge grad with Division II Chowan in North Carolina. Alleyne averaged 14.5 points in his first 13 games this season while Haskins averaged 12.7 in his first 12 contests.

Mountainview hoopsters taking it one game at a time » BY DAVID STEGON

Unlike figure skating or gymnastics, the winner of a basketball game is determined simply by the final score and not a panel of judges. The Mountain View boys basketball team, admittedly, lacks some style points. “We can be boring sometimes,” jokes coach Kevin Brown.

Mountain View is happy to slug out a win with a point total some high octane offense might get by halftime. “We want to limit turnovers and try to control the tempo,” Brown said. “We lack depth at certain positions that limits the tempo we can play.” At 5-12 entering the Jan. 13 game against Stafford, the Wildcats were still working on their winning formula.

home against Massaponax. The Wildcats entered halftime tied at 21, only to fall behind 10 points in the third quarter. It was the same story last month against Colonial Forge: tied at 30 at halftime, fall behind double digits in the third quarter and then try to fight back in the game’s final minutes. The Wildcats are led by the backcourt of Jacob Clark and Marcus Bevels. A junior, Bevels has shown a scoring touch at times, scoring 22 against Spotsylvania earlier this year, along with having 15 against Caroline. Clark NEWS

brings a football mentality to the basketball court after playing wide receiver and defensive back for the Wildcats football team. Brown also praised the play of center Maiko Carter. At 6-foot-1, Carter is smaller than a lot of players he goes up against, but Brown said he continually plays hard and excels at grabbing offensive rebounds that turn into easy baskets. “For us it is always one game at a time,” Brown said. “We just want to keep looking for ways to get better.”

the schools system playing a bit of a waiting game with further funding looming. His recommended budget would leave a funding gap of $5.9 million. Benson called the figure “not insurmountable but certainly a stretch goal for the organization.” School board member Patricia Healy, Rock Hill District, said that it would be helpful to know the intended priorities for the new proposed positions. “Realistically I’d be surprised if we’d be able to fund all of them,” she said, asking Benson for further input at a later meeting on where he feels the greatest need is. School board member Irene Egan, Aquia District, said that if everything is a priority, then nothing is a priority. She wants to see paraprofessionals come in line with teachers as far as pay scales go. School board member Dewayne McOsker, George Washington District, said he wants the board to take a good look at its senior teachers to make sure they get a fair wage and are supported in all they do. Benson touched on topics Tuesday including mandated increases, teacher pay scales and a market-based approach to bus drivers, bus monitors, nurses and paraprofessionals. Some of his recommendations were to maintain an additional 1 percent for teachers, utilizing an amount totaling just over $51,000 based on a published pay-scale error from the previous year; to extend a 1 percent increase to all employees; to enhance scale at $1.1 million; to fund VBS rate increases at more than $2.5 million; to offset a projected healthinsurance increase; establish a merit pool; and provide bonuses. He also spoke about bus driver turnover and monitors, noting that many quit in their first or second year at SCPS. In terms of compensation for bus drivers, “we’re second to worst,” Benson said. Bus drivers in Stafford County start at $13.69 per hour. Only Albemarle County is lower than Stafford in the immediate region. “Clearly, something needs to happen here in terms of improvement,” Benson said. He discussed using pay bands and reaching target amounts that the school board would be comfortable with to increase the bus drivers’ salaries. He also discussed maintaining support for attendance bonuses for bus drivers. CLASSIFIED

Democrat currently lives with his family near Dumfries and works as a deputy in the Fairfax County Sheriff ’s Office. He served two tours in Iraq as a member of the U.S. Army before his honorable discharge in 2006. King has also volunteered his time to lobby lawmakers in Richmond on issues affecting autistic children, after his daughter was diagnosed with the ailment. The Democrat is currently the only candidate to have announced a campaign for the Second District seat. “Josh King represents the next generation of leadership in Virginia,” Torian said in a statement. “I look forward to campaigning alongside Josh in 2017.” When Benson discussed replacement cycles, he noted that recommended that 15 buses be replaced in the budget, as well as some technology. Based on enrollment, he would also ask for additional elementary clerical funds. Benson said that an additional 700 students are projected for the next fiscal year. He shared what’s different about the fiscal 2018 budget, including a non-compensation budget built in the MUNIS system and new budget codes. MUNIS can keep track of accounting, budgeting, payroll, attendance, purchasing and multiple other functions. Benson also noted that capital improvement, specifically infrastructure needs exceed $6 million. They include fire alarm, track and roof repairs and an upgrade to a 911duress system for all schools. Healy made note that the board should not be “considering” funding anything safety-related; instead those items should definitely receive funding. Benson also discussed continued support for a new teacher institute, funding for year two of a teaching and learning summit, funding for realignment of the Office of Learning and Organizational Development and continued support for course/conference reimbursement. Benson also shared the 2016 Climate Survey Results, in which employees were surveyed about their work environment. In 2015 and 2016, employees were asked questions about their workplace. Last year, 2,576 Stafford County Public Schools employees answered the survey. In 2016, 86 percent said that leadership treated them with respect, compared to 81 percent the year prior. In 2016, 75 percent said that leadership is effective, compared with 65 percent the year before. In 2016, 68 percent said leadership facilitates communication effectively, while 60 percent said so the year before. And in 2016, 72 percent said that leadership at SCPS is effective in helping them reach their mission and vision, while 66 percent said so the year prior. The school board will hold work sessions on the budget Jan. 24, Feb. 11 and Feb. 14. A public budget hearing will be held Jan. 24 at 7 p.m. at the Alvin York Bandy Administrative Complex in Stafford. The school board will consider and approve a fiscal 2018 budget Feb. 28. OPINION
