Hope, 5, speaks to her brother, Wilson, gently, in the way every parent wishes an older sibling would. She sees Wilson squirming and asks if he wants help getting into the pool. Wilson is a Terrible 2-year-old in Ninja Turtles swim trunks, defiant like any other kid his age. “No, no. I want to get in by myself,” he responds. Ever since Wilson Brunner was born, people have assumed he’s needed extra help. But that’s just never meshed with his personality. “If he wants it he does it in his own timing,” said Rebekah Brunner, Wilson and Hope’s mother. “He shows us that he is very capable; very wanting to be successful in life.” Rebekah and Jason Brunner thought they understood the pregnancy drill when they walked into their physician’s office for a 20 week ultrasound.

Covington Town Center plan starts to take shape BY ERIC MANDEL emandel@covingtonreporter.com
The dream of constructing a Town Center in Covington is still years from becoming a reality, but the first building block may be on its way. Representatives from the Inland Group, based in Spokane, presented their concept plans to the Covington City Council a few months ago. They have applied for

Washington state schools, including those in Kent and Tahoma, will be required to have all students passing state assessments in reading and math this year or be labeled as “failing.” Washington was launched into uncharted territory April 24 as the first state to lose its federally granted waiver from requirements in the No Child Left Behind Act. The Department of Education’s revocation of the waiver means that schools must meet the Annual Yearly Progress benchmark of 100 percent of students passing state exams in reading and math in 2014. The short list of consequences includes reallocation of a portion of federal funding that schools receive, and having to notify students’ families that schools are failing to meet federal standards.

Matheson said the council will need to approve the development agreement and property tax exemption by late summer so construction can begin construction this winter. The developer has been working out details of the project and applied for the permit in the last three weeks. Matheson said Covington citizens have clamored for a traditional town center concept since the city incorporated in 1997. He said the city’s first 12 years were focused on building a tax base [ more COVINGTON page 4 ]

Funding provided through Wings of Karen accelerates breast cancer research, including the development of a vaccine headed to a clinical trial next year. The research and creation of the vaccine, which is aimed at preventing a recurrence of tumors, is being led by Dr. Mary (Nora) Disis, director of the Tumor Vaccine Group at UW Medicine. The vaccine, which has been named the Wings of Karen Vaccine after the nonprofit, is planned to be in a trial in January of 2015. “Wings of Karen Vaccine was able to receive funding over at UW Medicine directly because of our support through our 5K Bra Dash and our Pink Carpet event we held last year,” Founder and Director Kristi Blair said. “It’s a really advanced vaccine in the fact that it is for 3 sub types (of breast
cancer),” Blair said. The vaccine targets HER2/neu, insulin like growth factor receptor-1, and insulin like growth factor binding protein 2 — immunogenic proteins that are over-expressed in some sub types of breast cancer. “It’s the furthest a vaccine has come in ever, and it is all happening here,” Blair said. “It’s amazing.” Wings of Karen gave a $100,000 grant for study and development of the vaccine. “Dr. Nora has been working on this her entire career,” Blair explained. “It was finishing it out and getting it to the clinical trials so it can get to the patients,” she said of the grant. Blair cautioned that the vaccine still has a long way to go, but the progress is significant. “The hope is that this vaccine will eventually be preventative,” she said. “Right now they are using it to support women with recurrence, but eventually they hope that this vaccine

Ultimately, she said the goal of funding grants is to “kickstart promising projects.” Blair estimated that an infusion of funding from an organization like Wings of Karen can accelerate a study by five or six years.

Parents raise concerns about disruptive students for issues and the need to resolve them. He was most concerned about the school board’s inability to reach a compromise and provide a solution to the problem. “It doesn’t seem like they’re all on the same team,” Dawson said. Deborah Stevenson, a Fairwood teacher, said that if a student creates a major disruption in a classroom, it can require moving students to another room and having another teacher come in to help deal with the problem. “Three classrooms can be disrupted because of one student,” Stevenson said. While many of the teachers and parents present at the meeting represented Fairwood, Cindy Prescott with the Kent Education
Association (KEA) said special education students that the problem exists in if that district can’t meet the at least half of the district’s student’s needs with its own elementary schools. resources.

Loftis said that the district cut back on the programs partially because it would be the least impactful. “When you get 27,000 students there’s going to be moments of discord,” Loftis said. The situation is still tricky because while the incidents are isolated in occurrence, the district doesn’t want to have children being the messengers. “Can we send out a note that says the special needs status of a student? No,” Loftis said. “Can we let a 7- or 8-year-old be the messenger? We can’t do that
and pursuing stores such as Costco, Home Depot and Walmart. The city had done so well growing the calculation by 2008 that the focus shifted from building a tax base to “building a sense of place.” “People wanted a traditional downtown,” Matheson said. “A heart or gathering place for the community.” The city hired a consultant, BERK, from Seattle, to conduct a study on the revenue businesses in the town center could potentially generate and how much it might cost. That information is key for applying for future grants. Matheson said the study is nearly complete and is tentatively scheduled for presentation to the city council on June 24. The major piece of the town hall puzzle won’t be decided until a decision is made with Covington Elementary. The
city has right of first offer with the Kent School District to buy the land once it vacates the site. Matheson said the area has transitioned from residential to commercial over the years, with most students who attend the school in the Northwest portion of the city. The district hopes to include a new school in a future bond issue. Matheson doesn’t expect such a bond to be approved before 2015, which would mean a new school is at least two or three years away from being in place. Matheson said that part of the project will certainly take time. “We’re not ready to pull the trigger, but we can’t pull the trigger until there’s a new school in the Northwest corner of the city,” Matheson said. The city selected Panattoni Development Company, based in Seattle, as its private sector partner to help figure what kinds of developments might go on that property. Matheson said the city is “just starting to roll up our sleeves and talk about the
details.” Though the specifics aren’t set, Matheson said bringing higher education to the town center is a goal. Although Covington has one of the highest median incomes in this part of the county, Matheson noted that the 2010 census showed that only 23 percent of Covington residents have a bachelor’s degree, compared to the national average of 46 percent. “Having higher education right there in our back yard could help the whole community,” he said. He said the city has been working since 2010 to build a relationship with local community and technological colleges, as well as public state universities, in hopes that they would have a physical presence in the town center. “I think there is a lot of interest on the part of Green River Community College,” Matheson said. “Mixed interest from the universities we’ve talked to.”

But so far the district has to work out logistics on how much the system could legally disclose.

The immune system is a remarkable thing. It works hard day and night to keep people safe from the myriad foreign substances and viral and bacterial attackers that try to assault it daily. People who are diagnosed with lupus have a problem—something goes very wrong with their immune system, and instead of fighting off foreign invaders, it attacks its own healthy cells and tissues. This can cause widespread damage to many different parts of the body. Anyone can develop lupus, although it most commonly affects women. Symptoms of the condition include pain and swelling in the joints and muscles, fever, rashes, chest pain, hair loss, pale or purple fingers, and the feeling of being very tired. The cause of lupus is still unknown, although it may be the result of genetics. Although no medicine can cure lupus, some medicines can control many of your symptoms and often prevent or slow organ damage. Medical treatment for lupus often involves reaching a balance between preventing organ damage, having an acceptable quality of life, and minimizing side effects. Reducing your daily stress can also control lupus symptoms. You can call Southlake Clinic at (253) 395-1972 to schedule a consultation, or visit our clinic at 27005 168th Place SE in Covington. We are open on Saturdays.

Police search for answers in Covington stabbing case BY ERIC MANDEL emandel@covingtonreporter.com
Police are searching for answers after a man was seriously injured during a stabbing inside a Covington home on May 2. The man, Marcus Edwards, 20, was taken to the MultiCare Covington emergency department and transported to Harbor View Medical Center. He is in stable condition and expected to
survive, according to Covington Police Chief Kevin Klason. Klason said police received a 911 call and abrupt hangup about an alleged stabbing at around 7:50 p.m. Officers received little cooperation once arriving at 26402 187th Ave. SE, where the incident was alleged to have occurred, and locked down the house, calling the major crime’s unit to investigate, Klason said. Klason said the unit received a search warrant on
the house and interviewed the five or six individuals at the residence. The case was still pending as of press time Tuesday. Klason said investigators had not yet been able to interview the victim, whose address was not known. No weapon was found. “The occupants were being less than cooperative and forthright about what had occurred,” Klason said. “We don’t know how it all materialized.”
Fundraising in full swing for Wesley Homes heath center ROBERT WHALE Auburn Reporter News Reporter
The Wesley Homes Lea Hill retirement community wants to grow. But its growth spurt needs a boost. A capital campaign is well under way to raise $2 million for a planned $6.6 million, state-of-the-art, skilled nursing and rehabilitation nursing center on the Auburn campus. When completed, it would be the only not-for-profit, continuing-care retirement community — with independent housing, assisted living, memory care and other services — in Southeast King County, ac-
cording to Wesley Hill officials. “It really is us wanting to say, ‘This Lea Hill health center is a health center for all of South King County,’” said Scott Hulet, administrator of the Wesley Homes Lea Hill campus. The proposed 30,000-square-foot, 1 1/2—floor care center addition is to feature a 36-private-room-and-bathroom design — offering privacy and dignity — that is Medicare/Medicaid certified and affordable, campaign officials said. So far, the campaign has raised $1.1 million of its targeted goal and needs additional philanthropic support from nearby communities such as Kent and Covington,
Klason said occupants of the house, all described as young adults, said they noticed that Edwards had been stabbed and was bleeding badly, but didn’t know how it happened. “There are far more questions than we have answers,” Klason said. Klason said there was a fair amount of blood evidence from where Edwards sat in the home and in a number of different
officials said. Donations have come largely from individuals, but many businesses and organizations have greatly contributed, too. By securing 30 percent of the capital expenses from private and public sources, Wesley Homes can leverage otherwise absent dollars to finance the project, officials said. Tentative plans are to break ground late this summer, beginning a nine-month construction period that culminates with a 2015 opening. That timeline, however, is contingent on raising the remaining funds, campaign officials said. As members of the Lea Hill Campaign Advisory Board concede, it’s a challenging sales pitch. The campus may be in Auburn, but the new health center would serve seniors throughout the area. “Most of the beds will be used by people from the surrounding communities,” said Sue Singer, co-chair of the campaign advisory board. “I’m a community person. It’s
places around the house. He said police don’t believe the man’s injuries are the result of an accident. Klason said these types of cases, with so many unknowns and a lack of cooperation, are stressful. “It’s a public safety issue,” he said. “It’s very disconcerting.”

not about the people who live here but for the rest of us.” Board members project that at least 80 percent of those using the new health and rehab center will be from the surrounding communities, not just Lea Hill campus residents, said J. David Snow, Wesley Homes Foundation director of campaigns. Snow said the project provides a “revolutionizing aspect”, that is, offering easy access to an on-site, multi-service health center. The purpose of the expansion is to become an exemplary, affordable center, fit for the regional senior community. “Wesley Homes is very committed to the Puget Sound area,” Snow said. “We are governed by a board of trustees, who are volunteers who meet monthly. These are people who come from key leadership roles in business, government, church and community life. We’re not building something to sell it to a multi-national firm, we’re building because there is the need.

Doomsday Hill is no cakewalk
After 32 hours, some 500 miles by car and my first run up Doomsday Hill, I made it back home from my first trip to Bloomsday in Spokane on Sunday afternoon. One of my friends and I have made many a trip to the Spokane area over the yeas and we decided that this year we should add Bloomsday to our list of experiences. Initial impression: they don’t call it the Doomsday Hill for nothing. And if actually running up the monster of a hill from the Spokane River didn’t convince anyone of that, then the giant costumed vulture would have done the trick. Think meeting Mickey at Disneyland, except bigger, and actually kind of terrifying. I am not a character meet and greet kind of girl. When I was a toddler I screamed in Mickey’s ear so loud he had to take a break. My general feelings about costumed characters haven’t changed much. So, yeah, I got to the top of the hill and scooted over to the side to avoid the Instagram-fest that was the gigantic, squawking predator, thank you. On a different point, 50,000 people make for kind of a big crowd, especially at the starting line. They had all of us lined up in corrals by color group and the music was pounding, the beach balls were flying, and there was an unofficial contest of sorts to see who could throw their sweatshirt highest in the trees that lined the street. The latter I’d never seen done before, but judging from the amount of apparel adorning the boughs I’d say it’s something of a Bloomsday tradition. After the race it all gets Staff Writer Katherine Smith

collected and donated. It’s hard to really describe being at the starting line of a race if you haven’t been there. It’s like being in the middle of a mob that all starts running, albeit a friendly one, and fortunately everyone starts running in the same direction. There’s the walkers, the sprinters, the weavers, and the ‘hey that’s my friend and here come twelve of our other friends that are all going to try to sprint through the same two foot opening’ groups. Imagine all those people getting funneled onto a two lane road. There weren’t as many crazy costumes at this race, but there were plenty of tu-tus and colorful leggings as well as a variety of handmade Bloomsday themed shirts. For a while I was running near a lady who had on a
shirt proclaiming her participation in her 35th Bloomsday. That’s some serious dedication. And it’s a lot of trips up Doomsday Hill. I was impressed. Then there were the bands. Groups performing everything from rock to bluegrass to “Happy” were stationed along the course. Near the end they were practically placed on top of themselves in a get-pumped-up-you’realmost-there kind of move. It made for some weird musical mashups. After all that — the crowds and costumes, Doomsday and terrifying vultures — there’s nothing quite like making the final turn when you can finally see the finish line ahead. We both survived and even agreed that we would do it again, so there’s that.
described how they tried, and how political and philosophical divisions prevented them from completing their assignment. They also explained that supplemental budgets, like the one adopted in 2014, are not the ideal vehicle for making a billiondollar investment, as the court might have desired. A decision like that will be best made in 2015 when the next two-year budget is adopted. And in the 58-page report, lawmakers expressed appreciation of the justices’ prodding to get them to live up to their constitutional obligations for education. But they also not-so-subtly said ‘Don’t mess with us’ in a section arguing why they didn’t think the justices could force them to do the homework as assigned. How will the court deal with such recalcitrance? It’s a bit of a crapshoot because, well, there’s never been a showdown quite like this between these two branches of Washington government. The Supreme Court could deliver another scolding — there have been two so far — then wait to see if lawmakers next year come up with “the grand agreement” they deem necessary for doing as they’ve been told. Or it could exact punishment, as has happened in other states. In March, the Kansas Supreme Court directed the Legislature to provide more funds for education by July
1, or else part of the state budget will be voided. In Washington, justices in January warned of a potentially bumpy road ahead should lawmakers not turn in a completed assignment. “Our decision in this case remains fully subject to judicial enforcement,” Chief Justice Barbara Madsen wrote. “We have no wish to be forced into entering specific funding directives to the State, or, as some state high courts have done, holding the legislature in contempt of court.” Those families and school districts whose lawsuits led to the McCleary decision hope the court’s patience is running out. Lawmakers candidly admit in the report they did not do what the court asked them to do, said Thomas Ahearne, who is the attorney for the plaintiffs. “Frankly, the Supreme Court is going to have to make a decision,” he said. “They are going to have to decide whether they meant what they said.” If they do, those ‘students’ could face a lot more than detention.

Imagine the domed state Capitol as a classroom, with 147 state lawmakers as students, and you may get a better picture of the challenge facing Washington’s Supreme Court this summer. Justices in January gave the ‘students’ a two-part assignment, which was due April 30. They told them they needed to put more money into education, reminding them the state must be paying the full cost of basic education in public schools by 2018. Another part of their homework required legislators to draw up a timeline showing what will be spent year-to-year, to ensure the state meets the court-imposed deadline in the McCleary case. Well, those ‘students’ didn’t get either done. On Wednesday, a bipartisan committee of lawmakers representing the Legislature turned in a required progress report which Jerry Cornfield

town officials and the state patrol, in 16 days Ginger and her volunteers recently served more than 6,600 hot meals to the rescue crews in Oso. (Ginger, by the way, is a chaplin with the State Patrol.) More than any other disaster site they’ve dealt with, contamination was a major problem in Oso and keeping the raw food and cooking utensils clean was absolutely critical. Many of you may have seen her being interviewed at the landslide site by a reporter from NBC Nightly News. This was no superficial query. It was an in-depth four or five minute report, fed directly across the desk to Brian Williams. I am quite certain no other local person in the history Enumclaw, Black Diamond or for that matter the entire Plateau, has ever held the spotlight for that length of time on any national news program. Anyway, the next time you’re in the restaurant you might shake her hand. Better yet, give her a hug. No one deserves it more.

to the tornadoes in Shawnee, Okla., and the landslide in Oso. Ginger and a team of FEMA-trained volunteers have worked so many natural disasters in our country, emergency personnel know them on a firstname basis. Frequently operating from the back of trucks and under a canopy or two, her team mainly serves hot, homemade meals to first responders through, on occasion, they’ve been known to feed victims as well. In one tornadostricken region, they served 13,000 meals in five days. Surprisingly, Ginger receives no funding from any government agency. Her team members even buy their own airplane tickets to the disaster areas. Though she applauds the help she receives from Real Life Church in Covington (nondenominational), Ginger remains the inspiration and driving force behind the operation.

Ginger “Mama� Passarelli is a warm, effervescent and happy, middle-aged ex-hippie who decided, if she was ever going to have children and a home, she’d have to forsake her life in a teepee on a communal, organic farm and get a job or start a business. So, 10 years ago she opened Mama Passarelli’s Italian restaurant in Black Diamond. The rest, as they say, is history. From the start, it’s been one of the finest dinner houses in our region. In fact, readers of the Covington/Maple Valley Reporter voted it the finest Italian restaurant on the Plateau. If you haven’t yet eaten there, by all means do so. However, her splendid dining room isn’t the main reason for this feeble column. Instead, I want to alert you to the incredibly unselfish and heroic service Ginger has offered at natural disaster sites all over America – from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in Mississippi

The Black Diamond City Council is not being honest. They say, or give the impression, that Mayor Gordon’s “legal battles� have cost the citizens over $100,000. This is not the
truth. Through February, the council has approved and spent $100,868 for all legal costs, almost the entire budget for the 2014 fiscal year. About half of the budget amount, $58,638, was paid to Foster Pepper, the new interim city law firm, with the majority of this cost used for the new attorney to get up to speed with the

SCHOOL ACCOUNTABILITY LEGISLATION The No Child Left Behind Act was an update done in the early 2000s to the Elementary and Secondary Education Act that was originally passed in the 1960s. The ESEA has been periodically updated over the years; the No Child Left Behind Act being the most recent such update. According to the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, NCLB was due for an update in 2007, but lawmakers haven’t been able to agree on what the update should entail. Essentially, ESEA and the NCLB update are an accountability system for educators. One of the requirements for schools in NCLB was that by 2014 all students would pass state tests in math and reading. In 2012, states were to apply to the Department of Education for a waiver from the NCLB requirements in light of the delay in the update and the impending 2014 requirement. The Washington state ESEA flexibility request summary, which was last updated in July of 2012, states, “ED (Department of Education) and Education Secretary Arne Duncan offered the flexibility partly because of frustration with Congress over the delay, and partly because of the almost universal frustration among educators and many
educational advocates regarding NCLB and its unwieldy into account information on student learning growth based and often unenforceable adequate yearly progress (AYP) on high-quality college- and career-ready State assessments regulations and sanctions.� as a significant factor in determining teacher and principal The waiver and it’s subsequent renewal came with condi- performance levels, along with other measures of profestions. sional practice such as classroom observations.� One of those conditions was that stuFinally, Duncan stated that since the dent performance on state tests had to be legislature had adjourned without impleDecoding The included in teacher evaluations. menting the requirement for student test The state is in the process of overhauling Acronyms scores to be a part of teacher evaluations how teachers and principals are evaluated the waiver would be revoked for the 2014ESEA - Elementary and Secondary Educaby implementing the Teacher/Principal 15 school year. tion Act Evaluation Project. “That’s what it all turned on in the NCLB: No Child Left Behind Act Washington student performance is Legislature this year: it’s either going to OSPI: Office of Superintendent of Public currently not a required part of teacher be ‘may’ be a part of an evaluation or Instruction evaluations, and a change in that would ‘shall’ be a part of an evaluation,� Tahoma require the state Legislature to take action.

Just say no to excessive storage, your sanity will thank you
KENT SCHOOL BOARD AGREES WITH PUBLIC The recently passed four-year levy allows the Kent School District School Board an opportunity to restore some programs lost during past budget reductions. The additional funds available for program restoration are limited to between three and four million dollars per year. Since the list of possible restorations exceeds that amount, the board invited the public to respond with their preferences through a survey and at public hearings during the last few weeks. At the April 30 school board meeting, the board discussed their review of the survey results and gave the administration recommendations as to their restorative priorities for the upcoming school year. Administrative staff will now develop a budget based on the Board’s recommendations that will be adopted in August.
as a patio, we had to reponder every item. I was amazed at how much junk or unused stuff was on that porch. It was probably the first inkling I had at how easy it is to stash things out of sight we don’t need. I don’t think one item made it back into use in the house. Before my husband and I got married, he had a storage unit he used as a shop to work on his cars. One year, the whole facility flooded. Management for the storage unit put new dumpsters around the facility every day for people to junk their water-damaged things. Most renters just threw everything away without assessing the damage. One can only assume they were things they never used and the flood was a good excuse to rid themselves of their literal baggage, thus reclaiming their $300

I’m against extraneous storage. For the past couple weeks I’ve been helping my in-laws clean out their very large, water-front home. It’s an awesome house, except it has a ton, and I mean a ton, of built-in cabinets. Some people would think, “Cool! Lots of storage.” The problem with storage, even right in your home, is once you put it away you never have to look at it again. My father-in-law had a penchant for checking in with their local thrift shop every time he walked up town, which I believe was every day. He would bring stuff home to his wife and she’d either banish it from the house or stick it in a cupboard. My husband and I have been cleaning their

But then, something happened. “All of a sudden (the physician) got very quiet and real intrigued with his machinery he was working with,” Rebekah said. “His demeanor definitely changed. I could see that something wasn’t quite right… He said, ‘this baby looks good internally, but this baby doesn’t have any arms or legs.’” The 30 minute gender reveal turned into a life changing moment. “We had tears,” Rebekah said. “Not a mourning, but it wasn’t what we were expecting to hear.” It took weeks for the Brunner parents to fully process the information. They received support from family and their church. There were some who questioned whether the pair would abort the baby. “That was not an option for us,” Rebekah said. “We chose to rely in our faith and what the Lord had given us — that he was perfectly made the way he would be.” Wilson was born without a femur or fibula in his right leg or a hip socket on his right side. His lower left side has all of the typical bones, but they are bowed and shifted. Wilson is also missing his radial and ulnar bones in his arms, but has a humerus.

In his lifetime I think he and his family will teach a lot of people.” Rebekah and Jason originally assumed that Wilson at 2 years old would be much different than their first child. However, the hard lesson has been that Wilson’s limbless body has been a more difficult concept to them than to Wilson himself. The parents figured they’d need to move to a new home without stairs. Wilson climbs the two flights with ease, hopping on his butt the whole way. They also thought Wilson would need a service dog for things like standing and mobility. Instead, Wilson treats Tank the German Shepard like a loving companion in the same way his fully limbed sister does. No help required. Before Wilson was born, the pair road-tripped to Oregon to meet Nick Vujicic, an Australian man born without any arms or legs who is a motivational speaker and Christian evangelist. Vujicic not only speaks about bullying and his battle with depression and suicide at a young age, but is a role model like few others in Wilson’s position. Despite being, for all intents and purposes, a square torso with a head and feet, Vujicic can swim, surf, type, walk and golf. He is also married with a child. The interaction helped the couple realize their son still had

He uses his mouth, chin and the corner of his jaw more than most. He also uses his foot as an extra hand at times. “He can show you there is an alternative rout to whatever he is trying to do,” Rebekah said. Wilson plays on his mom’s iPad, picking his favorite songs from the “Frozen” soundtrack, shouting all the words to “Let it go” that he knows. He also sings along to “Ninja Rap” from the “Ninja Turtles 2” movie. “I think he’s got some kind of musical future potentially,” Rebekah said. “It just seems like an interest at the moment.” Before a speaking engagement in Enumclaw last year, Vujicic stopped by the Brunner’s home and met Wilson, hanging out for three or four hours. Vujicic and Wilson rolled on the floor together and he answered more of the family’s questions. Even with the support, one of the biggest difficulties for Jason and Rebekah has been coping with how the outside world looks at their son. Rebekah said her current stage is that of a “Mama Bear” mentality — on the lookout for people who stare or judge through facial [ more WILSON page 13 ]

Warm weather safety tips for parents and children KENT REGIONAL FIRE AUTHORITY
Hyperthermia The weather is beginning to move toward the 70s or even as high as 80 degrees in the Puget Sound area. This warm weather brings its own dangers, especially for the young. Hyperthermia, or a much higher than normal core body temperature, is often the result of children being left in vehicles, unattended. According to San Francisco State University, 44 children died of hyperthermia in 2013 after being left alone in a vehicle on a warm day. Not surprisingly, the months of June, July, August, and September are when the majority Over half of children who die after being left in a vehicle are under the age of two and 95 percent are under the age of five.
These young children are dependent for their safety on adults making good choices. • Myth: There only is a danger to kids on very hot days. • Truth: On a 72 degree day the internal temperature in a vehicle can rise 35-40 degrees in approximately one hour when the windows are rolled up due to solar radiation. • Myth: “Cracking” the window slightly will keep children cool. • Truth: Studies have shown that leaving windows slightly open has little effect on the temperature inside a vehicle since solar radiation is primarily heating the objects in the vehicle, not the air. • Myth: Children can handle extremes in temperature. • Truth: Young children do not have the internal

temperature regulating mechanism that adults have. Also, children dehydrate more quickly than adults. • Myth: It is legal to leave a child unattended in a parked vehicle for a short period of time in Washington State. • Truth: RCW 46.61.685 and RCW 9.91.060 strictly prohibit leaving children unattended in vehicles. What can people do to help avoid this tragedy? Here are some tips: 1. Any time you leave your vehicle, take all children with you. It will slow you down, it will create more work, but it may save a child’s life and it is the law. 2. If you need a reminder about children in the back seat, place your briefcase or purse next to the child. Another “trick” is to leave the diaper bag on the front seat as a reminder. These types

Arts Festival will include a live performance area (poetry, music, dance, etc.), indoor gallery space for display of visual arts for sale to the public, artists’ demonstrations and hands
of reminders are especially important if you do not regularly carry children in your vehicle. 3. Get into the habit of “looking before you leave”. As you exit your vehicle scan the interior to look for children or other things that need your attention. 4. Place electronic “reminders” to yourself on your PDA, smart phone, or email calendar to check on your child. 5. If your spouse or other adult is carrying a child and does not normally do so, call them to ensure that the child has been removed from the vehicle. 6. Ensure that day cares and schools notify you promptly if your child does not show up as scheduled. 7. If you are concerned about a child you see alone in a vehicle, call 911.
The danger of open windows Each spring we hear tragic reports of children who have fallen out of windows, often in their own homes. One of the saddest parts of this is that they could have all been prevented. As the weather begins to change, many people will be leaving windows open to take advantage of the warmer spring air. The Kent Fire Department Regional Fire Authority asks adults to do what they can to protect children by following 1. Always supervise young children – Yes, it is difficult and time consuming, but it is the responsible thing to do. 2. Child-proof windows – Place a stick or other device in the window track to keep it from opening more than a few inches. Commercial locking devices are available from your local

hardware store. 3. Keep beds/cribs and chairs away from windows – Do not make it easy or convenient for kids to reach windows. 4. Do not draw attention to windows – Avoid hanging anything on or near windows that will attract children. This includes wind chimes, window stickers, and wind socks. 5. Remember what window screens are for – Screens keep bugs out, not kids in. Screens are easy to push outward and offer no barrier to prevent kids from falling out a window. 6. Check on them regularly – Even when they are sleeping – especially during naps, monitor your children. For more information, contact your local fire department or public health agency.
Submissions are due prior to May 30. Up to $1,500 is available in purchase awards in the juried exhibit as well as many awards in the form of People’s Choice and various local business donations (cash and gift certificates). To learn more about Arts Festival 2014, go to: www.maplevalleyarts.com.

A traumatic injury often marks the end of a prep soccer player’s career. For Cam Weaver, though, it was the impetus for his success. The Kentwood star stood on the sidelines with crutches following an ankle injury in the second game of the Conks’ 2002 state tournament run. Weaver was a first team all-league selection, but had lost some interest in the game, quitting the club teams that are so crucial to elevating within the sport. He had no definitive plans to play in college. But as he watched his high school teammates limp to a third place finish in state, he couldn’t help but feel he was missing out on something. “I had this strong feeling that if I would have been there playing we would have at least got to the championship game and been able to compete for a state championship,” Weaver said. “I was so bummed that I didn’t get to do that. I was like, ‘I can’t be done playing now.’ So I just decided to keep playing. I called the coach at Skagit Valley and told him I was going to tryout.” Weaver wowed at the nearby community college and eventually moved on to lead Seattle University in goals and the 2004 Division II national championship. His pro career started in 2006 with the United Soccer League Seattle Sounders, where he was the league’s co-leading scorer and Rookie of the Year. After scoring 21 goals in 51 matches for a club in Norway’s top division and playing a role in two MLS Cup finals trips for the Houston Dynamos, the Kent native has returned home as a veteran reserve for the MLS’s Seattle Sounders, who currently sit atop the league standings. The 30-year-old joined the Sounders on a tryout basis and has only seen action in one regular season game, but says he couldn’t be happier to be home. “It’s awesome to be back,” he said. “I love the Northwest. I grew up here. I love everything about the area.” A lot has changed since Weaver left his home more than seven years ago, including the unconditional love for the Seattle soccer club, which averages more than 38,000 fans for home
Former Kentwood athlete Cam Weaver practices with the Seattle Sounders on May 5. ERIC MANDEL, The Reporter games, and the fact that Covington is considered a town. “Nobody referred to it as a city when growing up,” he said. “Used to just be an area.” After signing with the Sounders, Weaver and his wife, Estrella, moved in with his parents, Bill and Julie Weaver, who still live in Kent. The pair eventually found an apartment in Capitol Hill and he is in the process of remodeling a home with his dad in Renton — roughly half way between home and the city. The return home has predictably led to friends and family asking for Sounders gear, but Weaver loves how the city has embraced the team and is surprised to find friends from school who are now diehard fans. “It’s not something I would have predicted when I was growing up around here,” Weaver said. “It’s not something I’d have even thought about.” After years of playing heavy minutes, Weaver has taken on the role of mentor and veteran

presence for the Sounders. Sounders head coach Sigi Schmid said Weaver has done well and provides leadership and depth at the center-forward position. Schmid said and he expects Weaver’s 6 foot 4 inch frame could be useful as the season progresses. “He’s different than our other forwards because he’s a big target in the air who is very dangerous in the air, which is different than what (Obafemi Martins) is or (Clint) Dempsy, or some of the other guys we have up there,” Schmid said. “There are still going to be times going forward in the season and in the Open Cup where that aerial presence is going to be important to us.” Weaver knows injuries happen and that it’s hard for the starters to play every minute of every game. He says he will be ready when called upon. “Everyone needs to contribute at some point during the season,” he said. “You always have to be ready. It’s something I know and it’s something I’m trying to tell all these other younger guys.” The Sounders dish nearly $6.7 million, plus bonuses, to Dempsey, their star player. Meanwhile, Weaver will earn just more than the veteran league minimum of $49,004 for his role this year. Weaver said he didn’t return to Seattle for the money and that pay differential is of not a concern. “The way (Dempsey’s) been playing lately he’s sure been earning it,” Weaver said. “He is a world class player. He’s been a good guy. I’ve been impressed watching and hanging out with him.” Weaver suffered a knee injury earlier this year but has fought through, just like he decided to do with the Conks 12 years ago. Kentwood soccer head coach Aaron Radford, who was the JV coach in 2002, remembers Weaver’s squad as likely the most talented in school history. He said he recently ran into Weaver and they reminisced about what could have been. “We both agreed it was one of those tailormade, picture perfect teams,” Radford said. “There’s something to be said about not being able to finish your senior year the way you want. It still leaves a little empty spot inside you.”

www.covingtonreporter.com • www.maplevalleyreporter.com [SCHOOLS from page 8] based on need. One of the main indicators is the percentage of a school’s students that receive free and reduced lunch. While not all schools receive the funds, Patterson said that essentially all schools, with maybe only a few exceptions, are likely to be classified as failing the 100 percent standard. The NCLB standards call for a 20 percent reallocation of Title I funds for schools that don’t meet the Annual Yearly Progress standard that all students pass the math and reading state tests by 2014. Otherwise, schools have to send out a letter informing parents that the school is failing the standard. The reallocated funds are to be used for supplemental instruction or to transport students to schools that are not failing if the student wishes to attend a different school. This school year Tahoma received $169,000 in Title I funds for students at Lake Wilderness Elementary and Shadow Lake Elementary. The district’s total general fund budget for expendi-
tures — the district’s main operating budget — for the 2013-2014 school year was $75,727,751. “There’s the money and then there’s the stigma,” Patterson said. “OSPI has said that the standard will apply to all schools even if they don’t receive any federal Title I funding.” Patterson said that while the financial impacts for Tahoma schools the cost in reputation and public opinion of schools would be greater. “In a time when we are making great strides in education we are going to have to send letters saying we’re failing,” Patterson said. Kent receives approximately $1.2 million a year in Title I funds, according to Loftis. Kent’s total general fund budgeted expenditures for the 2013-14 school year was $287,525,409. According to the Kent School District website, Kent elementary schools that have a free and reduced lunch rate of 40 percent of the student body or higher receive Title I funds. That list includes 20 elementary schools in the district, including Cedar Valley,
Covington, Horizon and Jenkins Creek. “This is a terrible blow for all of our schools that have been showing steady, strong and in many cases, remarkable improvement over the past few years, as evidenced by the Washington Accountability Index and several other state measures,” Loftis wrote in an email. Loftis added that losing the waiver could also impact the district’s Race to the Top funding, the specifics of which, he said, are still unknown. “Without our ability to meet the signed assurances in the (RTTT) grant, one of which included the requirement of using test data in teacher evaluation, we are placed in a non-compliance
mode with this requirement,” he said. The state announced that testing data from 2010-11 — the last year before the waiver went into effect — and from 2013-14 will be used to determine which consequences apply to a school. If a school took part in piloting the new Common Core State Standards aligned Smarter Balanced tests this year and wasn’t required to report scores, then data from the 2012-13 school year will be used.
PUSHBACK While schools await direction from the state, dissension is growing among educational stakeholders. On May 1 the board of directors of the Washington State School Directors As-
sociation passed a resolution urging Congress to reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act — essentially updating it and thereby replacing the No Child Left Behind requirements — and was asking individual school boards to do the same. According to their website, the association consists of 1,477 school board members from school districts in Washington. Their stated objectives include advocating for public education and student achievement, as well as promoting effective public school governance and creating a network for school board members. The resolution passed by the board calls out the No Child Left Behind Act update as “ineffective” and
May 9, 2014 [13] “costly” and states, “the current law has resulted in the misrepresentation of students, schools and districts and contributed to a significant and unwarranted decline in the publics’ opinion of our public schools.” Patterson said the Tahoma School Board would consider the resolution at its next board meeting on May 13. “They are pushing back,” Patterson said of the WSSDA. “We want (Congress) to tear it up and do it again because the system is inherently unfair.”

expressions. She understands that the social norms on this issue can be tricky and that most people don’t know how to act. Nobody actually approached the pair to ask about Wilson’s condition until he was around 1 year old. At this age, Wilson doesn’t realize his differences, or at least can’t verbally express it. Jason admits he gets annoyed and frustrated at times since he knows his son can’t yet stand up for himself. “If you’re curious, just ask,” Jason says. Patrice Briggs, community relations with the Children’s Therapy Center, said SKIP served about 2,800 children last year, with conditions that range from Down syndrome to Spina Bifida, with around 300 coming from the Maple Valley, Black Diamond and Ravensdale area. Briggs said it is common for parents to feel isolated. “It is a difficult thing that parents with special needs face,” Briggs said. “We do see that all the time, but we try to empower those parents to help their kids.” Therapists at SKIP offered suggestions for the family and helped set goals. Many of the tips involved not coddling Wilson and are aimed at letting him gain semblances of independence. The therapists also attempted to modify utensils for Wilson. To eat yogurt, they would fasten a spoon to one of his little digits with a hair band. “He has nothing to do with that,” Rebekah said. “If it’s not his terms it’s not gonna work. I just give him a toddler spoon and he has figured out how to use it and turn it around.” Seattle Children’s Hospital offers clinics for children with upper or lower limb differences. At this point, Rebekah feels the socials may be more beneficial to she and her husband than Wilson, who plays just fine with the neighbor kids. Rebekah said the hardest, but best thing she has learned so far is the ability to let go. “If he falls, he falls,” Rebekah said. “You have to let them fall and get back up and learn. Just like with anything. We don’t see him any differently than our other child.” Back at the pool, Wilson tries to open the cap of Jason’s water bottle. He finally gives up and asks for help. Jason agrees, so long as he doesn’t pour it out. Wilson nods and, of course, immediately pours the water into the pool. Jason grabs the bottle and gives Wilson a pinch. He cries and scoots into mom’s legs. Typical kid.

May Day may scream flowers but it is still too early in western Washington to set out heat-loving plants like coleus, marigolds, tomatoes, eggplant, cucumber starts and young squash seedlings. Gambling gardeners will dig in and plant anyway because our climate is fickle and we might just enjoy warm nights and mild days the first two weeks of May. So what’s a gardener suffering a serious case of spring fever to do? Go ahead and purchase bedding plants, geraniums, zucchini starts, young tomatoes and all those other tender young things tempting you at the nursery. Then consider these ideas that will hedge your bets in case of a chilly May night: Store new plants on a covered porch or patio for a few nights. This is called “hardening them off� and forces tender, greenhouse-grown plants to develop a tougher skin (on a plant this would be their epidermis) so a drop in temp to say 40 degrees won’t turn those green leaves yellow or gray. When you store plants close to the house you also keep them out of the strong wind and direct sun. Even sun-loving plants will suffer sunburn if they haven’t been allowed to gradually build up a bit of a tan. Coleus and tomatoes are especially susceptible to sunburn, wind burn, spotting from rain drops and stunted growth if they are not allowed to get used to the cold cruel world in a gradual way.
Cover new plants with a sheet each night
Sometimes you just gotta plant when you have time to plant – but what if a drop in temp or heavy rain storm is predicted right after you plant a flat of petunias or transplant your cucumber starts? Recycle a lightweight bed sheet as a night time covering over tender seedlings at least for one or two nights. Just remember to remove it in the morning if the sun comes out.
Set tender potted plants into a wheelbarrow or wagon
Finding the perfect heirloom tomato at a plant sale or an unusual yellow and white black-eyed Susan vine at the nursery means you will come home with tender plants you just had to buy. A wheelbarrow or wagon makes a great home for these contained plants because you can wheel your tender treasures into the protection of a garage or garden shed at night. Just

don’t forget to take them out for sunshine and fresh air in the morning.
Pamper tender plants with mini greenhouses
My favorite protection for tomato plants is to wrap bubble wrap around a metal tomato cage and secure with duct tape. This works much better than the plastic forms that you are supposed to fill with water. In our climate the sun does not shine hot enough in the spring to warm the water and release any heat at night. Bubble wrap is insulating, cheap and effective. If you have small tomato or cucumber seedlings you can make a greenhouse from a gallon size milk jug. Just cut out the bottom of the jug and leave off the cap when you cover the transplants so air can flow. Soft drink liter bottles can also be used as well as clear plastic cups turned upside down over tender young seedlings.
Put a teepee over your pots
If you want to jump the heat gun and fill your patio pots with geraniums, petunias, begonias and other summer flowers, create a simple insurance policy by using three sticks tied at the top to form a tee pee over your newly planted treasures. You can even use supple branches from spring pruning shrubs to make this pyramid form. Then it will be easy to wrap the tee pee with bubble wrap, or drape a sheet over the supports if a storm is predicted. This will also offer protection from sudden hail storms. It will be easy to remove the supports once the plants are hardened off. Plant tough plants that love our cool nights. You can add lettuce, peas, kale, cabbage and most herbs (except basil) to the vegetable garden now and don’t worry about protecting these cool season crops at all. To fill your flower pots without worry pick cold-tolerant alyssum, lobelia, euphorbia, dianthus, nemesia, dragon wing begonias and wax begonias. Some of the new petunias and mini petunias are also very adaptable to cold night weather. • • • Marianne Binetti has a degree in horticulture from Washington State University and is the author of “Easy Answers for Great Gardensâ€? and several other books.

Kent School District Parent Academy graduates largest class The Kent School District’s Parent Academy for Student Achievement will graduated its largest class since its inception one year ago on April 29. PASA has earned special recognition from the Road Map Project, an organization aimed at improving
education in South King County and South Seattle. PASA has more than tripled the number of hosting schools, and the number of graduates has increased by almost 50 percent, from 165 graduates in its first session to 300 that were expected to graduate. The PASA program, a nine-week academy, is available to all interested parents who want to be more familiar with the school system. The goal of PASA
Community news and notes
is to provide better learning environments at home while also serving as a forum for parents to address their needs and concerns. Because many participants are originally from non-English speaking countries, academy lessons are available in many world languages. In this year’s session, classes were taught in eight languages: Amharic, Arabic, English, Russian, Somali, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese. Specific
languages are available based on the needs of the parents who attend, so they vary from session to session. Each week the participants learn something new about the school experience. They learn about the necessary collaboration between home, school, and outside community partners. Representatives from community partners, such as ReWA (Refugee Women’s Alliance) and St. Vincent de Paul Centro Rendu, are special guests
