The Seattle Seahawks faced off against the New Orleans Saints Saturday, coming out with a 23-15 win. Sumnerites gathered the night before at Midtown Station in Sumner to cheer the team on with the 12th man spirit the region is known for. The 12th man tailgate rally was sponsored by the Sumner Downtown Association (SDA) and Midtown Station.

Polar Bear Plunge welcomes new year, benefits food bank By Theresa De Lay Staff Writer
The annual New Year’s Day polar bear plunge on Lake Tapps started in 2006, when Scott Thorsteinson and his friends decided to go for a midnight swim. Seven years later, the event has grown to a neighborhood favorite. Participants numbered close to 250, with about 175 brave enough to take on the icy lake. Thorsteinson lives in Driftwood Point with his
wife and together they decided to move the party to Driftwood Point Park in 2011. Their dock just wasn’t enough to accommodate everyone that wanted to participate, he said. Since then, it has taken place religiously at noon on Jan. 1. It was at that time, a food drive was integrated into the event. This year, $200 and 730 pounds of food was donated to the Sumner Food Bank. “Winter time is so boring,” Thorsteinson said.
“It started as a way to have a crazy, fun time but now it’s such a good thing for the community.” This year’s theme was wedding dresses and Thorsteinson said he even donned a wig with his white dress. Next year’s plunge will possibly boast a Seahawks or super hero theme, he said. After a quick dip, community members warmed up next to a bonfire, welcoming the new year with a little fire and ice.

School district wrestles with Twitter talk By Dennis Box Editor
Social media became the talk of the town during the Dec. 16 meeting of the Enumclaw School Board. A group of eight parents and students spoke to board members concerning a complaint filed by the Farr Law Group about some students’ Twitter accounts and the school district’s reaction to the complaint. Most of the students were high school athletes. The Courier-Herald was able to confirm that at least one was not.
The Beginning
The story began when the Enumclaw-based Farr Law Group filed a complaint June 26 concerning language used by about seven Enumclaw High School students on their Twitter accounts. The Courier-Herald received the documents in question following a public records request. The letter filed by the firm, signed by Megan Farr, was accompanied by a “Discrimination, Harassment, Intimidation, Bullying Form.” Also included were screen shots of the students’ personal Twitter accounts from February through June 2013. The letter stated a client brought the issue to the firm and the individual wished to remain anonymous, “for fear of retribution. The complaint is sent through our office to (hopefully) communicate its seriousness, with the hope that the district will treat this appropriately. “The complaint regards what appears to us a pattern amongst students in your district to use the words ‘faggot’ (or a variation thereof) – along with other offensive remarks, and general profanity. “Given past district initiatives to counter bullying and encourage kindness – we trust the school district will handle this appropriately.”
School District Action
The school district sent a letter to the law firm stating, “As you likely know, the District has limited authority to impose student discipline for student behavior that occurs off campus. Nevertheless, our high school administrative team will conduct an investigation the week of July 8-12.
Appropriate action will be The letter continued, taken with each individual “As members of this comstudent based on the evi- munity and parents we are dence gathered during the appalled. These kids are course of the investigation.” not only creating a hostile According to the district, learning environment, they about seven students were are harming themselves. called in with their parents These ‘tweets’ will follow for an investigation inter- them and cut off academic view. and career opportunities.” Superintendent Mike The letter was addressed Nelson said a protocol was to Nelson and signed by followed with each inter- both Farr and M. Owen view because a formal com- Gabrielson, who are marplaint had been filed by the law firm. “We wanted to know what was behind these NOOB tweets,” Nelson said. “Our (high school) staff knows ROFL these kids and (the staff) felt G SLAN there was not an aggressor nor a victim. There was not OMG a victim.” Nelson said he believes the district and schools IMO work hard to prohibit bul- GAY lying and harassment of YO LO students. DERP “That is why we launched :) LOL Rachel’s Challenge,” Nelson said. Rachel Scott was the first student killed in 1999 during the Columbine High School massacre. Nelson said he began the Rachel’s Challenge program at the school district to help deal with, “harassment and bullying in a pro- ried and have a preschoolage child. active manner.”
November Complaint
The Farr law firm sent a second letter to the district Nov. 18 stating another complaint was being filed. The firm attached screen shots of about seven more students’ Twitter accounts from July through November 2013. The letter stated the attorneys wished the complaint remain anonymous and added the issue was, “more than a disciplinary problem; it is a cultural problem….” The letter noted the school district’s response in June stated it has, “limited authority to handle ‘off grounds’ behavior, and there would be training for high school students and teachers on social media. Nothing more was said. We now question the effectiveness of these efforts (and submit to you there is legal precedent to discipline off-grounds speech so long as it is not ‘protected’ speech), but aside from that, we believe these incidents indicate a cultural problem in Enumclaw. It must be changed.” No case citation was provided concerning the legal precedent.
November School Action
Following this letter, the school brought in seven more students to interview. The difference was, this time the students were taken from class and parents were notified later. Nelson wrote a letter back to the firm stating the students had all been met with and parents contacted. “I noted in reviewing the student posts that all but one occurred outside the school day. The Enumclaw School District does not have the authority to regulate students’ off campus conduct or to discipline them for such conduct unless the conduct causes a disruption on campus. EHS administrators did not note any disruption of the educational program as a result of these posts. In fact, while plainly inappropriate, the tweets were among friends, and not attempts to harass another student.” Nelson wrote in the letter, “We do not believe that there is a culture at EHS that fosters inappropriate posts. To the contrary, EHS has worked very hard to create a culture of kindness
and acceptance.”
The screen shots that span February to November include the words “gay,” “faggot” and the “F word,” as well as the word “retard.” There is also a screen shot of a two boys, one wearing a yarmulke or skull cap worn by Jewish men, and the other boy was standing with his fingers pointed at

his forehead. A tag on the post is “Germany vs Jews.” Farr and Gabrielson pointed to this as antiSemitic. A parent of a student involved in the post said the attorneys misunderstood the intent of that post and many of the students posts. All the posts appear to be between friends and there is no indication anyone was singled out to be harassed or bullied.
Board Meeting
Parents and students who spoke at the December meeting questioned the law firm’s and their client’s motivation and the school’s actions. The CourierHerald will not be using the students names who spoke at the meeting and in phone interviews since all are minors. State Rep. Cathy Dahlquist, a former Enumclaw School Board member, spoke at the meeting, asking the board to reconsider the district’s harassment and bullying policy. “… in the state legislature when we pushed this antibullying and harassment through, the intent was for it to protect students,” Dahlquist said. “And what we found is there are people in this community, right
now who are using it to their benefit to bully and stalk and harass children, as we speak.” Dahlquist added, “We are all born in the United States of America; we have the First Amendment to free speech. Kids might say things, adults might say things we don’t like. They may call each other names we don’t like. Unless there is a victim, there is no bullying or harassment.” Dahlquist does not believe the district should have called students out of class without contacting parents first and added, “I do not believe it is the right of the school district to monitor social media accounts, personal social media accounts, that has nothing to do with school related issues.” Kari Christensen asked board members, “(What) are you going to do to protect my family from this person that for some reason finds it cool to look at a 17-year-old girl’s Twitter account?” A female student said, “I understand that I may have said some offensive things I should not have been saying on the Internet. I didn’t think the school should get involved. Especially when I was out of school…. I felt like I was really targeted by this as well as other kids.” Mauricio Portillio Sr. said, “Someone told me this is the land of free and home of the brave. And I don’t think this person (who followed the Twitter accounts) is brave.” Another female student said, “I’m very responsible… taking care of my own business. I think it is really inappropriate for someone to be going through all my stuff.”
Students
A female student who was interviewed by phone said she did not believe the school should have been involved. She said all the kids are “great kids” and the person accessing the accounts was “targeting certain groups of kids.” The student said the females felt they were being cyberstalked. “Going out and finding us on our Twitter accounts, looking over our feeds. It was creepy,” she said. She said she understood adults would consider the posts inappropriate and, “not what adults want to see
… don’t go out and search for it.” The student said the group of students determined which Twitter account was following them. The account did not use an individual’s name. She said the person communicated with them. There was no evidence that inappropriate language was used by the person following the students. The Twitter account and the communication was confirmed by parents and students. Nelson and school administrators said they were not aware the person following the students was also communicating with them. Farr said she could not state who followed the students because of attorneyclient privilege.
Disciplinary or Education
The female student said she felt the interviews by the administration were disciplinary. Parents contacted by The Courier-Herald said they thought the interviews were disciplinary, despite what the school district said. Nelson noted that no formal disciplinary forms were added to the students’ record, which would be accessible by parents online through the district website. The school administration described the interviews as an investigation that was more formal, with notes of the interviews kept. One parent said the student and parents were told to sign a form stating they were interviewed. The parents of the student following the interview insisted the school administration remove the notes from the student’s file, which they were told was done. According to Nelson, the second set of interviews in November were less formal, which is why the students were called from class and parents were contacted later. The school administration said no notes were kept of the second set of interviews. Nelson said when the school district received the complaints the students and parents needed to be contacted. “I don’t think it should have been put in a drawer or file and not have parents know we have information about their

Growing up is hard to do
Do you know the feeling in your stomach when you do not want to go on that roller coaster with the big drop and upside down twist in the county fair? Or somewhere scary when you were young? Or maybe even now, who knows. That is the feeling I got when moving out. Just plain nervous and scared. Jenna VanHoof I asked a Columnist friend, who has moved out and went to Central Washington University, how she felt about it. “Relieved because my parents were controlling. My roommate told me that we did not have much in common on the first day, though, because she had looked at my Facebook and already judged me,” she said. The truth is, moving out is hard and different for everyone. I asked another friend the same question who goes to Green River Community College. “I was really excited to be on my own and have new experiences but it was kind of hard because my mom

First of all, have you picked up your limited edition 2014 city of Bonney Lake Stormwater Pollution Prevention and Water Conservation Calendar at the Municipal Justice Center? This calendar was created by students of all ages in Bonney Lake and provides information everyone can use. I am always impressed by the art and messages. I have some pages of previous calendars framed in my home office. As I flipped through this year’s calendar, I was struck by Mountain View Middle School 8th grader Britney Ornellas’ September message, “Save the fish! Keep chemicals out of Lake Tapps. Report spills at (253)447-4320.” The city has been working on a shoreline management plan (SMP) for the Bonney Lake portion of Lake Tapps since the last year I was on the council. Pierce County has their own SMP for their part of the lake and Pierce County has to plan for all lakes and waterways in the county (not within a city). This column refers to the Bonney Lake SMP only, but all lake property owners may be inter-

ested in the Bonney Lake plan and wish to speak to your Pierce County council members on the topic after comparing the plans and processes. I understand some county lakeside residents have already done that. The city is lucky that it only has to focus on the Church Lake portion of the lake, not the waterways of an entire county. There were a number of stakeholders involved with the advisory group I was part of. We had a public meeting. After our process, the planning commission worked on the SMP over the years and has sent invitations to lakeside property owners on two occasions to get their input at an
open house and public hearing. This plan has been reviewed and rewritten many times over the past three years in an effort to get it right and strike a balance based on property owner input. Health of the lake, habitat, views and property rights have not been taken lightly. The city SMP is only for Lake Tapps; it does not pertain to any other lakes or creeks in the city directly. The ultimate goal is healthy waters that don’t need costly treatments to remove invasive weeds. Aquatic life needs shade. Birds, frogs and other wildlife on shore need shelter. Most importantly, the outflow from the lake flows into Fennel Creek and over Victor Falls into the Puyallup River, the spawning ground for five species of salmon and important to the health of Puget Sound fisheries. The aquifer at Victor Falls on Fennel Creek is the location of a city well that provides water for Bonney Lake. It is important to protect the Fennel Creek watershed, so indirectly,

Lake Tapps is currently open year-round, including the intake canal to within 400 feet of the screen at Dingle Basin. The lake offers very good opportunities for largemouth and smallmouth bass as well as tiger muskies. There is also good fishing for yellow perch and black crappie. Bass and panfish are sustained by natural production in the lake and provide for good sport fishing. Anglers must release all tiger muskies less than 50 inches. There was recently an article in this newspaper of Senator Pam Roach holding a 13.5 lb. common carp during a recent Department of Fish and Wildlife survey of Lake Tapps. Water access is provided at Lake Tapps North Park in the Pierce County part of the lake and in Bonney Lake at Allan Yorke Park on the Church Lake portion of the lake. The lake’s water level is normally down throughout the winter and early spring, which may limit boat access. Limited shoreline access remains at the public access sites. In 1909, four natural

lakes, Crawford, Kirtley, Church and Tapps, were flooded to create the Lake Tapps reservoir behind the hydroelectric power plant in Dieringer by diverting water from the White River in Buckley through f lumes and basins, like Wickersham and Printz. Benefits of shoreline management is if you own a house on the lake with a knockout view next to a vacant lot, or one ripe for redevelopment, you do not need to fear someone developing that lot and totally blocking your view. No fear of houseboats. Or houses built on piers in the water. No fear of monstrous docks that lease moorage creating congestion and pollution and reduced opportunities for party coves. At recent Bonney Lake Planning Commission meetings the following points were discussed: •The average setback now in Bonney Lake on Lake Tapps is 60.8 feet, and there is no change to that in this SMP. •The measurement is not from the high water mark, but a point out in the lake, taking into consideration the low water mark. If that setback was removed, it would impact the existing homes on the lake. The SMP preserves current development patterns. That is why the setbacks are the way they are. They are structured to balance and preserve the people’s rights and allow for future development. •Planting native vegetation allows for closer development (a trad-

eoff) and protects the lake environment. •The SMP is overdue; December 31, 2011 was the deadline, which has obviously been pushed back. •Under the proposed SMP the amount of developable area actually increases because all front and side yard setbacks are reduced because they aren’t related to shoreline protection. Current 20-35 feet front setbacks would be reduced to 10 feet and current 8 foot side setbacks would be reduced to 5 feet. •By increasing the distance from the lake protects habitat and views by relaxing closeness to the road and between homes. Basically, you enjoy the waterfront; share the view and the lake. •If the council does not agree to the streamline setbacks above for all properties on the lake, then only those who plant native vegetation near the shore as mentioned in 3 above gets the benefit of the streamline. •Streamline is optional and was added based on citizen input at the open house and hearing held by the planning commission in an attempt to accommodate. •If the city does not move forward, the State can impose their version of a SMP on the city and disregard all local input. The planning commissioners unanimously moved to forward the SMP forward to the city council. The city council will discuss the SMP at the council workshop, 5:30 p.m., Jan. 21 at the Municipal
Justice Center. The item is AB14-02 – Resolution 2297(Previously AB1355). Read about it on the city website at http:// w w w. c i . b o n n e y- l a k e . w a .u s/s e c t ion _ gover nment/city_council/council_action/minutes_2013. shtml on the Dec. 3 packet starting on page 15 or at ht t p://w w w.c i .b on ne ylake.wa.us/section_gover n ment /de pa r t ment s/ planning/planning_dept/ shoreline_management. shtml The SMP mainly concerns undeveloped or underdeveloped properties. It is the property owners right to develop or not. Those who know the history of the lake realize that it was originally developed as a vacation community; a weekend escape. There are still some of those smaller, cabin/vacation structures around the lake from that era. I have friends who live on the lake. I enjoy seeing their pictures on Facebook, looking across the lake at the sunset, or a storm brewing from their lakeside homes. They love entertaining their friends and families at the lake. Launching their boats from their private dock and taking a run around the lake with their kids and the family dog. The SMP incorporates lakeside living, fisheries, habitat on the shore and in the water, boating activities, and recreation opportunities that is positive for all of Lake Tapps and Church Lake admirers.

prolonged cold temperatures on certain plants, trees and shrubs in our landscapes?
Cold Weather Damage
Most of our native trees and shrubs can withstand freezing conditions. However, the more exotic plants, like those with palm-like leaves, will either be damaged or killed by extended cold temperatures. Plants or small trees that are planted in pots or containers may have been damaged or killed. While they might normally withstand such conditions, they lacked the insulating soil that normally protects the
roots when planted in the ground. As spring approaches, the damaged tissue on the tips of branches and twigs will begin to darken and shrivel up. New growth will not emerge as usual. Then decisions must be made to either bury the victim or attempt to apply gardener first aid. If new growth begins to develop below the damaged portion of a plant, the dead part can

at least 24 inches deep for shrubs and 36 inches deep for trees. Make sure there are drainage holes in every pot and add a layer of crumpled nursery six packs or empty plastic water bottles to the bottom of any large pot to keep the potting soil from clogging the drainage holes. The secret ingredient I add to all large containers is a shovel full of compost. I work this into the top few inches of potting soil to help hold moisture and add some active, living organisms to the otherwise sterile but quick-draining potting soil. My maple trees and small shrubs thrive in outdoor pots for seven to 10 years without the need for repotting or winter protection. Get creative with the frosting for your potting soil. A mulch is any material that sits on top of the soil to keep down weeds, seal in moisture and insulate from weather extremes. Bark chips and compost are common mulches in garden beds but when you pot up a plant you can get creative with the top layer of soil.

Wine corks make a lightweight, inexpensive mulch especially around potted plants that need extra winter protection. (Tip: use a felt tip pen to write the name or date on your wine corks if the bottle of wine was used to celebrate a special event or given by a special guest.) Polished rocks make excellent mulch on top of heat-loving sedums and succulents because they not only absorb heat but also keep the succulent foliage from rotting on the damp surface of the naked soil. Seashells as a mulch add character to any potted plant as well as marbles, pine cones and, for large containers, display a dazzling collection of blown glass balls. Go small in a big way. Miniature gardens have had a big impact on container gardening with nurseries now selling tiny benches, bridges and bird baths to accent the Lilliputian landscapes either with or without fairies. Local nurseries also stock tiny, tidy conifers and other compact shrubs that are natural dwarfs. Group a collection of these mini evergreens with a contrast of color and texture into one attractive container and you’ll have a low maintenance, but high impact, container garden that will look great all year long.

Top 10 issues in the landscape
Experience Joy Church Family
Enthusiasm for potted plants Celebrate spring with Marianne Binetti at the Tacoma Home and Garden show Jan 23-26. She will speak every day at 2 p.m. Topics will be “Container Gardening with a Twist” and “Color, Color, Color.” Spring begins with the start of the home and garden shows! The Tacoma Home and Garden show starts off the season Jan. 23-26 with indoor display gardens and some plant sales, followed by the granddaddy of all garden shows, the Northwest Flower and Garden show, which is early this year, running Feb. 5-9. This week start planning for spring by digging into some more creative ideas about containering your plants – but never containing the enthusiasm for Container Gardens – with a Twist Put your trees and shrubs in large containers – then use them to add shade and privacy to a porch or patio or to accent a lack-luster landscape. Our mild climate means Japanese maples, azaleas, rhododendrons, camellias, pieris, nandina and other shallow-rooted trees and shrubs can be happy in pots for years and years – as long as you remember to water in the summer. Growing Tip: use a wooden or frost-proof pot
be removed for aesthetic appearances. Eventually, the tree or shrub may recover its former shape with some patient TLC. One tip is to make a cut above a bud or emerging growth that is pointed in the direction you wish the new growth to develop. Eventually, additional trimming may be required of new sprouts that have been stimulated as the plant attempts to recover from the damage.

No. 7: If tree problems arise with a neighbor, try for a peaceful settlement without involving attorneys and lawsuits. Cool heads can lead to win-win solutions. No. 6: If worried about your own or a neighbor’s trees, have a hazard evaluation done by a professional. If a dangerous situation is discovered, the investment

No. 5: If a doorbell “arborist” encourages tree removals or windsailing a tree, consider a second opinion from a certified professional.

The community garden will create simple, light weight, efficient composting bins for each plot for composting, Program Director Randy Hynek said.
The Sumner community garden received a grant to establish compost demonstration sites at their two locations, Shepherds Field and The Farm. The money comes from a grant that Pierce County received from the Department of Ecology called the Coordinated Prevention Grant. The Sumner community garden received $2,000 to use toward creating composting systems. “Money not used on the compost system may be used in the garden for materials such as garden beds, educational materials, garden soil and mulch,” Stephanie Leisle, environmental educator in the Sustainable Resources Department of the Pierce
“These bins will save time and money and they will provide free fertilizer,” Hynek said. The composting bins will start being used in the spring when gardening starts up again, he said. Aside from the money received from the grant, Linda Holmes from McLendon Hardware donated $100 to be used toward merchandise and/or delivery to the Sumner community garden. Hynek added that aside from growing crops, the community garden also grows gardeners. “We’re excited and thankful for our volunteers and the grant,” Hynek said.

• Spartan Boys The Sumner boys led 24-19 at the half. The Spartans went on a 13-0 run to start the second half, the Patriots scored for the first time of the half with 3:47 to go in the third. Sumner led by as much 23 in the last two quarters of play. The Patriots started to make a come back toward the end of the third into the fourth quarter. Washington got within 14 with 5:27 left in the game but they couldn’t catch up to the Spartans. Coach Brett McDaniel said the key to Friday’s game
was junior post Jake Taylor. Taylor in his first start was “unstoppable,” McDaniel said. “He is one of our leaders and it was great to see him lead the team.” Another key Spartan, McDaniel said, was junior guard Scott Allsop who “played extremely well and led (the team) defensively.” Ten players scored for Sumner in the 61-41 win Friday. • Sumner Girls The Sumner girls won its 10th game in a row. The Spartans have outscored its opponents 586-228 in the last ten games. The girls started Friday’s game off to a fast start and never looked back. They started the game with an 11-0 run. The Patriots scored for the first time in the game with 4:15 to play in the first quarter. For the remainder of the

If you live in a family, you’ve gotten into one of those conversations. What conversat ions, you’re asking. You know those conversat ions, the ones you have with one member of your family, but for various reasons, other members of your family are within earshot and they respond to. I don’t mean secret conversations. I’m talking about the variety of conversation when no one is sure who you’re talking to, so they all answer. It most often happens if you live in a small house, the house has really good heat ducts so you can be heard from anywhere, or the house has a central, megaphone type room that transmits voices easily around the house. My house has all three of these aspects, although no one seems to find the need to answer voices heard through the heat duct, knowing for certain I would never get on my knees and talk to them this way. These conversations go something like this; I’ll set the scene: One child is in the kitchen (we’ll refer to her as KK for kid in kitchen), I am sitting in the attached living room, my husband is sitting in the adjacent family room and another child is down the hall from the living room in her bedroom (we’ll refer to her as KR for kid in room). Me: Have you finished your homework? Dad: Do I have to work tomorrow? KR: What? KK: Yes. I’m working on it. Dad: Did you need my help? KR: What? Me: No, I’m talking to KK. Dad: What? You’re talking to my friend Ray? Me: No, I’m talking to KK about her homework. KR: What? Did you need me? Dad: Did my mom call? Me: No, I am talking to KK about her homework. KR: Oh. Dad: What? Me: So do you have enough time to finish it today or will you need another day? Dad: Who’s at the door? Me: No one is at the door, KK has homework.
KR: Me? Me: No, KR, I’m talking to KR2, but do you have homework too? Dad: What? You need me to paint something blue? So by now you are either laughing your head off or wondering just what is wrong with us and thinking we desperately need family counseling or at the least hearing aids. However, there are statistics that claim parents and teens don’t spend enough time talking to each other, but

The World Trade Center Tacoma’s President and CEO, Anthony Hemstad, is leaving full-time employment with the organization to start as the first president of the new World Trade Center San Francisco. Hemstad, who previously served for more than four years as city manager for Maple Valley, will start with the WTC San Francisco on January 1, 2014. The WTC Tacoma Board of Directors appointed Valerie Coty to be the organization’s interim executive director through March 31. Hemstad started at the WTC Tacoma almost five years ago — in March 2009. Hugh Carr, chairman of WTC Tacoma’s Board of Directors, said of Hemstad’s tenure, “Anthony really helped return the WTC Tacoma to vibrancy. It is now likely the largest membership-based international trade organization in the Pacific Northwest.” There are more than 330 World Trade Centers globally in over 100 countries. Eric Dahl, CEO of the World Trade Center Association, said on a recent visit to Tacoma that the “WTC Tacoma is the fastest growing established WTC in North America,” having more than quintupled its membership during Hemstad’s tenure. “On every metric the WTC Tacoma is much healthier today than it was when Anthony first joined the organization,” Carr said in a statement. “I think the outlook for the organization is bright.” Valerie Coty works for Pierce County’s Economic Development Department. Formerly she served on the WTC Tacoma Board of Directors, including almost three years as vice chair. She will help oversee the WTC Tacoma while the organization’s board does a strategic review and decides how to best fill the organization’s role in the future. There will likely be a continued relationship with Hemstad as well during this transition period to ensure smooth transition and continuity. Hemstad called leaving full-time employment with the WTC Tacoma “bittersweet.” “This is a great organization and I’m a true believer in what expanding trade and attracting foreign direct

Farr Law Group
Farr said during an interview at her office that she and Gabrielson were trying to point out a “cultural problem” in Enumclaw and their intent was not to get “anyone in trouble or target any child.” Farr said they were representing a client who brought the issue to them. “We looked into this and we were horrified by what we saw.

We hope the result of this will be a candid community discussion.” Farr also said she wanted the students to understand what they are doing on social media, which is public, and the consequences of the posts. She said the firm’s intent was for the school, parents and students to take the issue seriously. Farr said inappropriate social media posts can cause problems for students trying to get jobs, scholarships and accepted to colleges. She said it is not a personal issue for the firm but the motivation is to begin a conversation.

“Students publishing anti-Semitic sentiments, racist and anti-gay slurs to other students in the public forum of Twitter creates a hostile environment in our schools,” Farr wrote in an email. “In this matter, as an advocate, my job is to speak for those individuals fearful to speak alone. I think we can all agree that an educational environment where everyone – students, teachers and staff – feels safe in the halls and classrooms is worth advocating for.”
ACLU
Attorney Linda Mangel, education equity expert with the American Civil Liberty Union, said during
a phone interview, “schools cannot discipline students for speech and other activities that takes place outside of school on outside computers unless it disrupts schools.” Mangel said the schools do have a “wide berth to call kids down (out of class) and discuss behavior.” She said schools should be cautious about “meddling in students’ off-campus activities unless they call them down to express concern.” Mangel said the students need to be aware that social media is public and to be cautious and careful. “There is no such thing as a private conversation online,” Mangel said.

The ACLU has a guide on its website titled, “Student Rights and Responsibilities in the Digital Age.” The guide details how the state and U.S. Constitution “guarantee freedom of expression for everyone, including students. Students do not give up their constitutional rights when they walk onto school grounds.” A PDF file of the guide will be posted to The CourierHerald website linked to this story.
Conclusion
The school board will be considering changes to the district bullying policy. Nelson said the district wants to be certain students
are safe and, “We don’t want kids bullied.” The question for the board is whether to allow adults in the community to anonymously file a bullying report, as was done in this case. The district would continue to allow students to report anonymously concerning harassment and bullying. “We are all trying to get our arms around social media,” Nelson said. The guide also noted, “Putting your real name, address, or phone number on a public website is like putting the information up on a billboard – anybody can read and use the information for any purpose, without you ever knowing.”

Fitness chat: phone apps help bring success Have you ever heard the expression “New year, new you?” It can stir motivation to establish New Year goals for selfimprovement. One of the most popular Bruce deJong New Year resolutions Stephanie Norton-Bredl or goals is to become physically active or physically fit. However, did you know that less than 10% of Americans successfully achieve at least one of their annual goals? Some factors include setting unrealistic goals, trying to accomplish too much too soon and underestimating the amount of energy that is required to develop new routines and habits. The good news is that technology can help increase the probability of success through fitness focused application software or “apps” for smart phones and computers. Here are some free apps that may help you achieve your fitness goals for 2014:
For setting goals
• 43 Things – described by the creators as the most popular goal-setting tool.
flu FROM 1
“Small steps, recognized and rewarded along the way, result in big changes.” Jon Q. Public, Enumclaw
For tracking progress
• MyFitnessPal- features include food and exercise tracking tools. • RunKeeper- features an activity tracker for runs, walks, bike rides and hikes. • Don’t Break The Chain- based on a motivational technique inspired by Jerry Seinfield of picking a goal and marking off the calendar days as you work toward the goal.
For motivation
• Peer Pressure- tracks your progress and shares that progress with your friends. • Carrot- features alarms and other electronic reminders and incentives to motivate you into action. • StickK- enables users to form commitment contracts to help them achieve their personal goals. These tools rely on the fundamentals of behavior modification; creating an environment that stimulates change through rewarding and reinforcing positive
accessible ways to obtain vaccines. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends everyone receive a f lu vaccine, whether by shot or spray, except children under six months of age, and anyone with a history of adverse reactions or Guillain-Barre syndrome. Those with severe egg allergies should notify their healthcare provider so they receive a vaccine that will not trigger an allergic reaction. While it’s true that flu vaccines can sometimes produce mild adverse
reactions, it cannot cause a person to contract the illness, according to the CDC. The most common reactions include redness and soreness at the site. In addition to receiving a vaccine, there are many ways to safeguard against the flu and other illnesses. The following tips were provided by the CDC: • Cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing. Kindly remind others to do the same. • Stay home when you are sick. Give your-
behaviors. Much like the star on your childhood chore chart encouraged you to do your chores. Many of these Apps also link to social media such as Twitter and Facebook enabling friends to hold each other accountable. Small steps, recognized and rewarded along the way, result in big changes. Which leads us to the question, what small steps can you start today to help you make progress toward becoming more physically active or physically fit in 2014?

in a press release. “This virus tends to strike younger age groups and can be severe, especially for pregnant women, infants and young children, and people with health conditions such as asthma and diabetes.” According to the Tacoma Pierce County Health Department, January and February is peak flu season in the Pacific Northwest, but the flu virus is unpredictable and receiving a shot at any
time during the year will help provide protection from the illness. Viruses that cause the f lu constantly mutate, which is why yearly vaccinations are recommended. Occasionally, a virus surfaces that isn’t included in that year’s batch of vaccines. The good news is that the H1N1 strain notorious for causing such mayhem is included in this season’s flu shot.
