Schools labeled as failing, but are they? Local, state officials sound off against the idea schools aren’t measuring up BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@covingtonreporter.com
Who’s going to flinch first? The state and the U.S. Department of Education are playing a game of chicken that by design puts Washington state students in the middle.
A lack of action on Capitol Hill in D.C. related to updating the Education and Secondary Education Act – its most current iteration is known by the name “No Child Left Behind” – has trickled down to Washington’s school districts, which were required to mail home letters that labeled schools as failing.
The label came from the U.S. Department of Education, which revoked Washington state’s waiver from requirements in No Child Left Behind earlier this year, making Washington the first state in the country to lose its waiver. [ more SCHOOLS page 4 ]

The 13-year-old girl killed Saturday in Kent after being hit by a pickup truck while crossing Pacific Highway South had just moved to the Kent area with her family a few weeks ago from Afghanistan. Kent Police and fire personnel were sent to the 23400 block of Pacific Highway South at 6:07 p.m. Saturday after a family crossing the busy roadway on the rainy night were struck by a passing vehicle. The family attempted to cross Pacific Highway, just south of the Kent Des Moines Road intersection. As the family made their way across the lanes of travel, they crossed into the path of a southbound vehicle. The pickup driver was unable to avoid the collision, striking the 31-year-old father and throwing the young teen pedestrian to the ground. The impact also sent the girl’s 31-year-old mother to the ground. [ more TEEN page 2 ]

[ PROJECTS from page 1 ] have caused the sidewalks to buckle, posing a tripping hazard to pedestrians. “We’re making the sidewalks more usable for walkers,” LaPorte said in a city media release. “While we hate to remove the existing trees, they’ll be replaced by a type of tree that is less likely to cause sidewalk damage.” Motorists should expect weekday curb lane closures on James Street between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. Pedestrians should expect sidewalk and crosswalk closures during their removal and replace-
ment; however, access for local resident will be maintained. The work is anticipated to be complete by late next summer. • Canyon Drive Crews will grind and place asphalt on Canyon Drive between Weiland Street and 101st Avenue Southeast, impacting vehicle travel at night from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m., Sept. 7-10. Drivers should expect lane closures and travel time delays on Canyon Drive and surrounding cross streets. • 64th Avenue South Southbound travel along 64th Avenue South will intermittently close between South 226th Street
and South 228th Street while undersized culverts along a drainage channel are replaced. Detour signage is in place to direct traffic around the construction area. Work is scheduled to finish at the end of September. • SE 240th Street Crews will begin work in latter part of September to stabilize the slope and restore a portion of Southeast 240th Street between 144th Avenue Southeast and 146th Place Southeast. The failing slope has caused progressive damage to the road. With work estimated to be finished by the end of October, the roadway will be closed and
detour signage will be provided around the work area. Construction schedules are subject to change due to inclement weather, equipment problems or emergency situations. Drivers are encouraged to sign up for traffic advisory alerts at DriveKent.com, which includes the ability to have traffic alerts sent directly to your email address. DriveKent.com offers information about lane restrictions, flagger control or road closures due to roadway construction in Kent. You will also receive roadway impacts due to snow and ice.

Man killed in 2012 at same spot The accident marked the second death in three years in the same block of Pacific Highway South. William L. Smith, 68, was killed in February 2012 after being struck by a motorcycle while trying to walk across the highway at night. As Smith crossed the busy highway on a rainy night, he stepped into the path of a southbound motorcycle, according to Kent Police. The motorcyclist was unable to avoid the collision, striking and knocking Smith to the ground. The impact also knocked the motorcycle to the ground.

Constantine proposes more Metro bus service cuts FOR THE REPORTER
King County Executive Dow Constantine sent the County Council a proposal on Tuesday for February service changes that would reduce 169,000 hours of Metro Transit service. “With the council we worked hard to deliver bus service within the revenues available, and without spending money Metro does not have,” Constantine said. “More service reductions are ahead, as we
await long-overdue action by the Legislature on a statewide transportation package that can restore sustainable funding for transit.” As recommended Aug. 28 by the Ad-Hoc Committee of County Councilmembers Joe McDermott, Jane Hague, Rod Dembowski as well as Constantine, the February service reduction would eliminate 16 bus routes and revise or reduce 32 others. The council this summer already
approved a first round of 151,000 hours of service reductions to take effect Sept. 27. Taken together, the two rounds would cut 320,000 of the transit agency’s 3.5 million annual service hours. Additional service reductions will be examined as part of King County’s upcoming biennial budget process. At the direction of the council and Ad-Hoc Committee, the February service proposal was rebalanced to distribute reduc-

Green Tree Park in Kent will undergo a huge transformation on Saturday, Sept. 20, when neighbors, other volunteers and city staff come together to install a new playground, walking trail and other amenities. More than 150 volunteers will be on site from 8 a.m. until the ribbon-cutting at 2:30 p.m. by Mayor Suzette Cooke. Refreshments, including lunch, will be provided courtesy of Starbucks, Fred Meyer and Papa John’s. The park, at the intersection of 120th Avenue Southeast and Southeast 216th Street in Panther Lake, is in a neighborhood annexed to the city in July 2010. The 2,000 squarefoot play space was built in 1997, making it one of the oldest in Kent Parks’ inventory. The footprint of the new playground doubles its size and include many exciting features suggested by children who drew their ideas at a June “Design Day” exercise. Register to volunteer by Sept. 17 at KentWA.gov/ComeVolunteer. After the deadline, call 253-856-5113 to see if there’s still room for more volunteers.

KENT MAN DIES IN SEATTLE MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT A 32-year-old Kent man died in a motorcycle accident on Aug. 27 in Seattle. The man was driving a 2006 Honda vt750 eastbound on the West Seattle Freeway at about 1:03 a.m. when he took the exit ramp to southbound Interstate 5 and failed to negotiate the curve, according to a Washington State Patrol report. The crash ejected the driver and a passenger and came to the rest in the roadway. Speed was listed by the State Patrol as the cause of the accident. The accident blocked the roadway for 2 hours and 45 minutes. The passenger, a 22-year-old Puyallup woman, remained in satisfactory condition Tuesday at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. The identity of the driver has not yet been released by the King County Medical Examiner’s Office. Both the driver and passenger were wearing helmets.

[4] September 5, 2014 [ SCHOOLS from page 1 ] One of the requirements in No Child Left Behind is that schools meet Annual Yearly Progress, or AYP, benchmarks. Among those benchmarks is by 2014 every student pass their state’s standardized tests in reading and math. The ESEA has historically been updated regularly, but has been overdue for a revision for a number of years. That update would replace No Child Left Behind. As the date for refreshed legislation came and went with no action in Congress and the 2014 deadline for meeting AYP approached, the Department of Education granted states waivers on a yearly basis. For the past
www.kentreporter.com
two years Washington had received such waivers. This year, however, the state’s waiver was denied because of a Department of Education requirement that students performance on standardized tests be a component in teacher evaluations. In Washington, including that component in evaluations would require a change in state law by the legislature. No change equaled no waiver. Besides mailing home the letters, there are also federally imposed financial ramifications for districts. Schools that receive Title 1 funds – e.g. schools that meet a threshold in the number of students who receive free and reduced
lunch and receive federal funds for programs that help economically disadvantaged students in the classroom through additional programming – and are labeled as failing must set aside 20 percent of the Title 1 funds for either private tutors or to transport students to other schools. Additionally, after two years of not meeting AYP, schools enter a series of remedial steps as outlined in NCLB, which can conclude in the reorganization of a school.
Making a point Last month the superintendents of 28 school districts in the Puget Sound Educational Service District, which provides additional resources and support for school districts and includes Kent and Tahoma, signed a letter that went home to parents explaining the situation. The letter also took a stance against the “failing” label, calling it “repressive” and “punitive.” In addition, PSESD held a press conference last month with four of the superintendents and one of Kent’s elementary principals to discuss the impact of schools being labeled as failing. “It’s clear, the evidence is overwhelming that schools are not failing,” Kent School District Superintendent Edward Lee Vargas said at the press conference. “We want to be held accountable and now it’s time to hold accountability accountable.” Vargas went on to call the law antiquated and said that it was in direct conflict with other laws like the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.
“We do reject the narrative that our schools are failing,” Vargas said. “That’s contrary to the facts.”
Kent “In Olympia you had folks who just could not make a decision, and in DC you had people who decided to make a point,” Kent School District Spokesman Christ Loftis said, summing up the situation. In the Kent School District, 21 of the 41 schools receive Title 1 funds. None met the 100 percent AYP threshold. “Because the standard for 2014 is perfection for all, the reality is that no school in our district, no school in the state, could meet that,” Loftis said. Loftis said that in Kent alone, $1.7 million in Title 1 dollars will have to be reallocated. “It’s affecting our ability to bring in curriculum resources and replace curriculum resources at our Title 1 schools,” Loftis said. “It’s real.” Loftis said that the list of programs and services that will be affected includes early learning and preschool programs in the Kent valley, staffing and staff training at schools in Covington, replacing dated curriculum at low income schools across the district, and individual approaches to identifying students’ needs and addressing them. “Title (1) funds allow us to do that more tailored approach in our poorer incomes and low income areas,” Loftis said. “It’s going to impact our ability to offer that tailored and tiered system.”
Individualized Learning
Kent will use some reserves to reduce cuts, but because the dollar figure is so large Loftis said that the district couldn’t do a complete match of funds. Loftis also pointed out that not only is there a cost of reallocating funds, but there is the cost of putting the word out the to tens of thousands of households in the district. Loftis said rather than helping kids, the cost of implementing the federal government’s policies are taking away from students in classrooms. “And then go to the $1.7 million we were going to spend on kids that now we aren’t going to … it’s nonsensical,” Loftis said
Helping or huting students? One of the ironies of the battle between the state and the Department of Education, and the failing schools label, is that many of the schools now deemed failing have won many awards for excellence in a variety of categories. As an example, Vargas said at last month’s press conference that in the last four years alone Kent schools have won more than 50 awards from the state and federal government recognizing excellence. “Bottom line, it’s going to hurt poor kids,” Loftis said. “And what a silly thing.” The idea behind the law, that if students aren’t getting the help they need at school to give them other options, doesn’t take into consideration variables such as English as a second language, or students with special needs. That, school
officials say, means the law misses the point, and isn’t effective. “That’s the irony of this: you’re taking money away from kids who need it the most and reallocate it,” Patterson said. “You’re not solving problems, you’re creating new problems.”
Teachers union supports state’s decision As for student’s performance on state tests being a part of teacher evaluations, Rich Wood, spokesman for the Washington Education Association said that the organization supported the state’s move to not change the law. “There’s no research that indicates linking student test scores to teacher evaluations does anything to help students or their teachers,” Wood said. He then pointed to the state’s new teacher evaluation system, the Teacher and Principal Education Project, that was piloted last year and continues to be rolled out this year. “Teachers and school administrators across Washington state are working very hard to implement the new evaluation system in a way that helps students but also teachers as well,” Wood said. “There’s a lot of great work that is being done.”
Officials weigh in State Rep. Pat Sullivan, a Democrat from the 47th district and majority leader, called NCLB “flawed.” [ more SCHOOLS page 8 ]

Our schools, teachers should be accountable Regarding: “Failed schools can be fixed, but are we up to the task”, Reporter). Well, Craig Groshart almost got it right in his Aug. 29 commentary. Like most who write about our schools, however, he showed outright cowardice in confronting the main cancer limiting the ability of kids to learn. The basic problem is not that insufficient money is being passed along by the state for education. The problem is that schools, alone in our society, do not want us or anyone else to evaluate how well they are doing their job. Anyone who works for a living, in any vocation or profession, is evaluated – usually annually – on how well they are meeting the objectives of their job. Are they meeting production goals for the number of widgets that need to be

Question of the week:
It’s about time to replace Air Force One, the president’s plane; however, the new version may not be a Boeing 747. It may be a 777. President Obama’s 2014 budget allocated $1.14 billion through 2018 for the research and development of a new presidential jet. The total includes one replacement aircraft which could be purchased in 2017. While the Pentagon prefers the four-engine 747, there are a couple of other important factors to consider. There is no question that the safety and security of the president are paramount, but increasingly cost is also a factor. Flying Air Force One is expensive. In 2012, the Congressional Research Service estimated it cost $179,750 per hour to operate. In 2013, it jumped to $228,000 per hour. Judicial Watch reported that taxpayers paid $7.3 million for the first family’s 2012-2013 Christmas vacation flights to Hawaii, their 2013 beach vacation on Martha’s Vineyard and for Obama to dine with fundraiser and DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg and appear on the “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”. When Air Force One is used for political purposes, campaign organizations must reimburse the U.S. Treasury an amount “equivalent of the airfare that they would have paid had they used a commercial airline,” according to the Congressional Research Service. Like his predecessors, President Obama often piggybacks official events onto his fundraising trips, which further reduces the amount campaign organizations must pay. Oddly, the formula to determine what campaigns pay is a secret. Meredith McGehee, policy director at the Campaign Legal Center, says the reimbursement rate on mixed events has remained a mystery over the course of several presidencies and only the White House counsel knows the formula.

They argue that it’s not fair to them to apply the same standard to their work that you and I have applied to us. They say that there too many other factors … dysfunctional homes, economic disparity, the allure of electronic entertainment that affect a child’s ability to learn. We all can say the same thing about our job performances, I suppose, because we all have full lives that put demands on us that might impair or work performance. Many of us have marital discord, health issues, or the demands of an aging parent that impact our job productivity. But our bosses continue to evaluate our effectiveness nevertheless … and so they should. [ more LETTERS page 7 ]
mercials as part of an “education” campaign dubbed “Background Checks Make A Difference.” The effort is set to end Friday. The ads stress the value of background checks for enhancing public safety but never mention the ballot measure that its political self is promoting. What’s nice about this campaign finance nuance is it also allows the Center for Gun Responsibility to keep secret the source of its money.

www.kentreporter.com [ BRUNELL from page 6 ] So, for taxpayers, it may be better for the Pentagon to switch to the more fuel efficient Boeing 777. Other governments are doing just that. The Japanese government is trading in its 747s for the 777X, which is as spacious as the 747 and costs less to fly. It will pay an estimated $832 million for the jets, which will go into service in 2019. However, the Pentagon would prefer a modified 747-800, the jumbo airplane the company introduced a few years ago to capture a bigger share of the air freight market. But slumping sales of 747s may force Boeing to discontinue the 747 production line long before the Pentagon is ready to decide. Orders for the 747 may stretch only through 2016. The current 30-year life cycle for the current Air Force One twins is up in 2017. The good news is that, whichever plane the Pentagon chooses to replace Air Force One – the 777X or the 787-800 – it will be a Boeing aircraft assembled in Everett. The Puget Sound Business Journal’s Steve Wilhelm watches Boeing closely. He doesn’t envision a battle between

He’s pledged to spend boatloads of money in every corner of the country to help enact tougher gun control laws and elect pro-gun control lawmakers. I-594 fits his investment profile perfectly. While billionaires soak up attention for their prodigious checks, where is the National Rifle Association in all of this? Is it possible the NRA, the established pulpit of the gun rights movement, will keep its money to itself in this fight? The NRA does have a
Airbus and Boeing like that which occurred a couple years ago when the Air Force asked for bids to replace the aging KC-135 refuelers. Wilhelm quoted Loren Thompson, a defense analyst with the Lexington Institute: “The government might accept bids from companies other than Boeing, but it isn’t going to buy an Airbus plane and the integration challenge of turning a 747 into the next generation Air Force One is just too demanding for anyone other than Boeing.” With America drowning in a $17.7 trillion debt, controlling government spending is essential. Among other things, Congress and the president must take a fresh look at how Air Force One is utilized and the true reimbursement cost for presidential fundraising trips. As for presidential vacations and personal use of Air Force One, put the First Family on a budget just like other working families. Don C. Brunell is a business analyst, writer and columnist.

political action committee to oppose I-594. But its coffers are pretty much empty. A significant infusion would be needed if the venerable organization intends to deliver a serious counterpunch. The NRA did contribute $25,000 to its PAC in July, then spent most of it on staff, probably to have them survey the landscape. They couldn’t have liked what they discovered. An Elway Poll in July found 70 percent of voters – many of them in the voterich Pugetopolis – “inclined” to back Initiative 594. Three months earlier, in April, an Elway Poll found the level of support at 72 percent. Things could turn quickly. They did in 1995 when voters initially embraced a gun control-type measure then rejected it. Of late the state’s electorate has been in the mood for reshaping society in ways the government won’t.

[ LETTERS from page 6 ] Only teachers and the system they help to create do not take seriously the evaluation of job performance. Certainly, the teacher unions carry too much clout in the question of evaluations, but the school districts share the blame. Administrators – many of them former teachers themselves – do little to support the public’s demand for accountability in school and teacher job performance. Who among us would not embrace the chance to set and evaluate our own job performance standards? It’s a little like telling a child she can set her own bed time, without the fear of a price to be paid for the exhaustion they would feel the next day after getting insufficient rest. School leaders are putting a lot of energy and paid time – paid for by us, of course – into spin control over the “failed school” letters that will soon be arriving at our homes. They want us to understand that their schools, despite failing to meet measurable federal standards, are really not failing. Yes, they are. Teaching, like child rearing, is a really hard job. liquor and legalized marijuana, charter schools and gay marriage. Last year, voters seemed primed to pass a food-labeling initiative until opponents shelled out $22 million to successfully defeat it. The NRA can’t fork out that kind of money, nor must it. Neither can it hope to succeed on its reputation alone. NRA leaders must decide whether it is worth trying to convince voters in one state in the far corner of the country to defeat an initiative, or focus on keeping members of Congress from changing the background check law for the nation. The next few days will be very telling. Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet.com.

I know: we’ve had three kids, all educated in public schools. We know that teachers are fairly well paid, have always enjoyed superior benefits, and have job security. Yet they insist the key to solving the school failure problem is to simply give them more money. Let’s try a new approach. Clearly spell out for every teacher the goal of their job for the year. Just like the salesman who has to meet his quota or the factory worker who needs to produce a minimum number of widgets, teachers need to have a goal. They need to educate the 30 or so kids before them every day, and help them become productive and responsible adults. If there are outside influences that make the job harder, that can be noted. They can be excused, perhaps, if the schools have taken aggressive steps – like expelling bullies and ordering underperforming kids into mandatory after-school study halls – to solve the problems. Until schools, districts and teachers embrace the idea that, like it or not, they will be held accountable for how well they do their work, I will never vote for another school levy or bond as long as I live. Educators are no better than the rest of us. They
need to be ready to be evaluated on how well they do their jobs, and then required to meet reasonable standards that are set for them by their employer – you and me.

Correction Craig Groshart wrote the commentary on failed schools in the Aug. 29 edition. The Reporter credited the wrong columnist in the caption.
Why make official language mandatory? Regarding “Official language policy needed to unite Washingtonians”, Reporter, Aug. 29: I admire Mauro Mujica’s ability to learn the language when he came to this country. My good friends of 50 years were Sephardic Jews who immigrated from the Isle of Rhodes and mostly spoke Spanish. The woman I first met and shared much time with said her family depended on her, as she went to school and was proficient in English. Since her parents didn’t have the opportunity to attend school, my friend was their primary resource.
I really don’t like the idea of a mandatory official language. But unless families are allowed to attend classrooms with their children, it seems a difficult concept to address. I often wonder if I had to go to a non-English-speaking country, for whatever reason, got off the plane and was expected to know how to communicate to others and it was mandatory. If their official language was totally new to me, how I would survive? I work as a temporary worker during elections, and most of the silliness done to ballots is from people who were lucky enough to be born and raised here. I would much rather that people who may have a primary language different than ours but are grateful for the opportunity to vote, be able to understand fully what they are voting on with whatever is helpful to them. Why build walls, when gates are more helpful?

on foot from police at about 3:01 p.m. Aug. 24 at the Safeway parking lot, 13101 S.E. Kent-Kangley Road. A store employee called 911 about the man who had previously taken items from the store, according to the police report. When officers arrived they spotted the man outside the store. The man saw police and started to run. Officers warned him to stop but he kept running. One officer shot the man with a Taser, but only one dart hit the man, who kept on running. A second officer used a patrol vehicle to try to stop the man. Police lost track of the suspect as he ran into the nearby Birch Creek Apartments complex. A store employee told police the man had stolen items from the store earlier and left his wallet behind. Officers cited the man at large based on the driver’s license in the wallet. The man had been banned from many Kent businesses.

Malicious mischief
Disorderly conduct
Police arrested a man for investigation of third-degree malicious mischief after he allegedly tried to break into a vehicle by smashing a rock through the passenger side window. The incident happened at about 6:39 p.m. Aug. 24 in the 7000 block of South 212th Street, according to the police report. A passerby called 911 to report a suspicious man next to a vehicle. Officers responded and found a man standing next to a 1996 Lexus that had two large holes punctured in the passenger side window. Police asked the man if he had broken the window and he reportedly shook his head up and down and said yes. The man then declined to answer any other questions. The officer noted a large rock sat in the passenger seat and that the windshield had been damaged with two large indentations. Officers transported the man to the city jail.
Officers arrested a man for investigation of disorderly conduct after he reportedly walked drunk across 104th Avenue Southeast at about 1:26 a.m. Aug. 25. Officers were in the 24300 block of 104th Avenue Southeast in response to another call when the man started to walk toward them, according to the police report. The man appeared to be very intoxicated and officers asked the man to keep walking past them, which he did. Police then saw the man a short while later step off a sidewalk and onto 104th Avenue Southeast. He walked about 100 feet south. A pickup driver had to slow down rapidly to avoid hitting the man, who walked with both hands raised high in the air. Three officer stopped the man on the other side of the street, handcuffed him and transported him to the city jail.
that we use,” Sullivan said. He added that the state tests for students – which are currently moving to the Smarter Balanced assessments that are aligned with the Common Core State Standards – are cumulative and wouldn’t be an effective measure of teachers. “It measures if students get past a certain level, it doesn’t measure student growth,” Sullivan said of the tests. “There was a lot of concern that we would be tying teacher evaluations to something that didn’t serve that purpose.” It’s a sentiment that Sullivan said he shares. “I don’t believe that that assessment is a good tool for what the federal government wants us to use it for,” Sullivan said. “My hope is that Congress will get serious and actually take this issue on. That the NCLB accountability will be changed to a system that makes sense.” Washington state Congressman Dave Reichert was unavailable to answer questions, but in an emailed statement he said that “the law is broken and clearly needs to be fixed.” “However, I do not support a top-down, one-

size-fits-all approach to education reform and believe that parents, teachers, communities, and the state and local school districts know what works best for their students. The Department of Education and the White House did not return calls for comment for this article.
What’s next? Going forward, there are three main options that could come to fruition. In no particular order: the state Legislature could opt to change state law and make student performance on standardized tests – that is, on the Smarter Balanced tests – a part of teacher evaluations, which would most likely result in restoration of the state’s waiver. Or, the Department of Education could decide to relent and extend a waiver to the state despite not including test data in teacher evaluations. The third option is that Congress enacts an update to ESEA, thereby replacing the requirements for every student to pass state tests – once again, the Smarter Balanced tests – in No Child Left Behind with new standards. Loftis pointed to gradu-
ation rates as one way the district measures success. Kent’s percentage, he said, is up to the high 80s. Kevin Patterson, Tahoma School District spokesman, said that Tahoma looks to graduation rates and test scores but also to the whole student. “It’s not just an arbitrary set of test scores or rules that guide us,” said Patterson said. “It’s also teachers being professionals and administrators doing their job and monitoring them as they go through the system.” The problem with perfection, Loftis said, is that it can very rarely be reached. “Using Utopia as your standard means that failure is always going to be your circumstance,” he said. “And people can’t survive in a failing circumstance forever.” Until circumstances change, and despite the negativity, school officials say they will keep educating kids; after all, they say, their schools, teachers, and their students are anything but failures. “We’ve got to worry about the futures of all not the ego of a few,” Loftis said.

Divide the landscape into season gardens Simply label the corner with the Japanese maple the fall garden, the east side of the house with rhodies and camellias the spring garden and an area you can see from indoors your winter garden. Of course, your patio or deck is the summer garden area. Now concentrate on just one garden section each season by adding plants

that look great in that season. Giving a name to different garden areas also helps with maintenance. Promise to weed, mulch and fine tune just one section or pocket garden at a time instead of being distracted by chores all over the garden. Yard work will not seem so overwhelming when you break a space into small chunks. Adding asters and mums around a beautiful maple in the “autumn garden” is a pleasant task if you pay attention to the changing colors of the season as you weed, plant and mulch the fall corner garden. Marianne Binetti
So how does your garden grow? If you think you work too hard for too little return on your energy investment, it may be time to evaluate your plants and maintenance this month. Consider a landscape makeover that would give you yearlong color without the yearly planting of annuals or maintenance of traditional perennial plants. If you can’t make it to one of the classes I teach on this topic, then here are some of the secrets to a successful designs for low maintenance high color gardens in Western Washington:
Choose plants with great foliage Flowers do not last as long as great looking foliage. In Western Washington we are blessed with the perfect climate for heucheras, and these spectacular foliage plants can be used to highlight fall foliage or add drama to spring bulbs. Heucheras can also be used in containers and they will look great even during
the winter months. Choose rhododendrons with a splash of yellow on their leaves and seek out conifers with blue or bright gold needles to add yearlong interest to any landscape. We have a lot of dark green evergreen color in Western Washington so trees and shrubs with gold, bright green or dark purple leaves will add some contrast. In my garden I use an evergreen lamium groundcover called “Golden Anniversary” as my signature plant that repeats in every
Add heavenly hellebores for winter blooms The new hellebores come in shades of pink, green, speckled and burgundy colors as well as the classic white. These evergreen, deer, slug and drought resistant perennials love our cool moist weather and do not need to be divided, fertilized or watered as much as other perennials plants. In fact, you should never divide a hellebore – get new plants from the seedlings that sprout around the base

Kentridge seeks stronger showing in 2014
BRONSON SIGNS WITH SEAHAWKS’ PRACTICE SQUAD The Seattle Seahawks signed former Kentwood High School football player Demetrius Bronson to its practice squad. The practice squad consists of players that have been cut and cleared waivers. Each team can have up to 10 practice squad players, who can practice with the team but can’t play in games. Practice squad players earn a minimum of $6,300 per week. Bronson was originally released on Aug. 25 but resigned days later. Bronson, an undrafted free agent who played at the University of Washington and Eastern Washington University, ran for 76 yards on 18 carries during the preseason.

Kentridge High returns to the football field after a crushingly poor showing in 2013, when the Chargers scored 104 points in 10 games and went 2-8. According to new quarterback Brian Brown and defensive lineman Braiden Beckman, they’re ready to bounce back with a veteran team of second-year returners. “We knew we were going to have a lot of returning players,” Beckman said. The team, almost completely new last year, now features 12 returning starters and eight newcomers. Beckman will be one of the top returning players from last year’s defensive lineup. This is Brown’s first season starting at quarterback, having been called in to the role after Jordan Lawson
Kentridge’s Brian Brown, left, and Malik McFerrin practice passing drills at French Field. The Chargers hope to grab a few more wins this season after going 2-8 last year.

He resigned in 2009 after six years as the Vikings’ head coach, finishing as one of

It’s clearly me stepping up and taking on that job,” he said. While both boys agree that Lawson was a good player, they believe Brown will provide better offensive depth between his strong throwing arm and his ability to run the ball. “Offensively, we put in a new playbook, and that kind of fits the personnel that we have,” Brown said. He says that in particular he’ll be looking to senior wide receiver Rashaun West and junior running back Malik McFerrin to support him in his newfound offensive duties. [ more KENTRIDGE page 13 ]

In Sacramento, Ingles worked as a substitute in various roles for his wife’s school district — librarian, para-educator, security guard, etc. and also began a rebuilding project for the Bella Vista High School football team, a school that drastically improved in his first season that ended with four wins. “It was more than they had won in a while,” Ingles said. “We beat a [ more INGLES page 13 ]

Ingles remained close with current Conks head coach Rex Norris, who Ingles hired as a Kentwood assistant in 1995, and recalls some of the other assistants as his former athletes. Ingles listed proximity and comfort with the coaching staff as reasons for his return to Kentwood. “At this point I don’t want to be a head coach anymore,� he said. “There

Brown and Beckman have put in work in the offseason. Beckman estimates that he’s been training for more than 20 weeks since January, and has worked with a personal trainer to improve his speed, strength and range of motion during the off season. For Brown, much of his time was spent on building his speed, conditioning and passing skills after finding out he would be quarterback. After last season’s show-
ing, Brown says that the team came into their new season looking to rebuild. With the loss of Lawson, Brown says the team plans to be less reliant on a star QB and more playing to the strengths of each individual player. “We have a whole bunch of returning guys,� Brown said. “They’re more knowledgable with the game and also on a higher level of play, having returned a year after playing varsity football. They know the game speed and they know what it takes to be the best.�
