Coupeville moving to full-time kindergarten
By Jim Waller Staff Reporter
Coupeville Schools plan to offer full-time kindergarten next school year. Superintendent Jim Shank said the district had been looking at how it could fund full-day kindergarten on its own without waiting on the state. Currently, state legislators are funding some full-day programs, but priority funding goes to schools that have a high percentage of free and reduced lunch students. “At the rate they’re going, who knows when we’d be able to get that done,” Shank said. So starting next year, the district will use
Lady Wolves earn league championship
Thirteen is an unlucky number for some. For the Coupeville High School girls basketball team, it is a turning point. For the first time in 13 years, the Wolves won a league championship. Coupeville clinched the title with a 51-32 win over visiting Klahowya Friday. After years of struggling against larger schools in the Cascade Conference, Coupeville switched to the Olympic League this school year to face schools of similar size. The results for the basketball team were immediate as the Wolves dominated play in their new four-team league. Heading into this week, the Wolves were 6-0 in conference play, winning by an average of 23 points. “What an exciting and great accomplishment for the team,” coach David King said after his team clinched the title. “I’m very proud of the effort all season long, players putting team first over individual stats,” King added. “This is a team that is determined to play hard for 32 minutes and never give in or up.” One of the team’s preseason goals was to win the conference championship, King said, but there is more to accomplish. “That is just the first step on where we want to get to as a team,” King said. “(We want) to play well the remainder of the season and carry that over to district play and all the way to state.” Two games remain on the league schedule, then the Wolves head to the district tournament as the Olympic League’s top seed. At district, the Wolves, who sport a 12-5 season record, will meet the winner of the game between the third-place Olympic League team (currently Port Townsend) and the second-place Nisqually League team (currently Seattle Christian, which is 13-4). The game will be played at Sumner High School at 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 16. Win or lose, Coupeville will play again Wednesday,

Makana Stone scores two of her game-high 23 points in the Wolves’ win over Klahowya Friday. With the win, Coupeville clinched its first league championship since 2002. Feb. 18, in Sumner. The top two teams from district qualify for the state tournament. The final time fans will get a chance to watch the Wolves at home is at 5:15 p.m. Friday, Feb. 6, when Coupeville hosts Chimacum in the next to last Olympic League game.
It was love at first sight for Mark Saia. And stepping onto the historic 90-year-old boat Suva, built in 1925 for the Pratt family of Whidbey Island, felt like coming come to him. “Now it’s a quest,” said Saia, whose family owns the Coupeville Inn. “I would love to bring her home.” Currently docked in Port Townsend, the boat will make an appearance at Coupeville’s Mussel Fest in March in efforts to raise money to purchase and renovate the schooner. The boat’s current owner, Lloyd Baldwin of Coupeville, is completely “on board” with the project and looks forward to seeing the boat restored and shared with generations to come.

Return: Coupeville man aims to bring historic ship to cove From page 1 “It was quite a coincidence how Mark connected with us,” Baldwin said. “We both decided this (Coupeville) is a perfect place for her to be.” “She’d be so beautiful sitting out there on the dock,” Saia said. Baldwin plans to serve on the board of the newly formed Coupeville Maritime Heritage Society, to operate under the umbrella of the Island County Historical Society. Saia said not only is the group seeking donations for the boat, but the members also seek volunteer legal and accounting assistance in order to get their nonprofit organization afloat. Tickets to tour the Suva will be sold through the Historical Society. Bringing the Suva to Coupeville permanently would be an exciting addition to the town, according to Vickie Chambers, executive director of the Coupeville Historic Waterfront Association. “It would be wonderful,” Chambers said. Saia said he already has some donation commitments and that people are “chomping at the bit” to get involved, but he still needs to raise the better part of $100,000 to acquire the boat. When he went searching for a new boat earlier last fall, Saia said he wanted something that would contribute to Coupeville’s history.
“A classic old schooner would draw more attention to our storybook town,” Saia said. “You step on that dock and you kind of go back in time a little. I want to bring back the maritime history of Coupeville. In 1905, this was the place.” Whidbey’s Frank Pratt contracted with naval designer Ted Geary to build the Suva, a 68-foot schooner made almost entirely of oldgrowth teak. She was built in Hong Hong in 1925 and cost $15,000, Saia said. Pratt sailed the Suva for 15 years before giving it to friend Dietrich Schmidt, who had the boat for 40 years. Suva then went to Bill Brandt of Olympia for about 25 years before returning to the North Sound to Port Townsend owner Scott Flickinger. Balwin bought the boat in 2009, which would make Saia’s group only the fifth owner of the boat in 90 years. “So many people have some connection with this boat,” Baldwin said. The Suva is named for the capital of Figi and was likely so named to conjure images of tropical island living, Saia said. Saia envisions a future with community events, charters and parties like “speakeasy nights” complete with costumes. He’d also like to share his love of sailing with the younger set and provide educational tours for local schools and sailing lessons for landlubbers of all ages. “There’s a lot of educa-

Seattle gallery features Purdue By Ron Newberry Staff Reporter
The bittersweet part for Sara Purdue is not being able to see the smile on her husband’s face. Purdue can only imagine her late husband’s reaction to having his art showcased at a prestigious Seattle art gallery. A collection of Roger Purdue’s colorful, Northwest Coast-style pulled prints will be featured in an exhibit beginning tonight, Feb. 5, at the Stonington Gallery on South Jackston Street. “Roger Purdue: An Introduction, A Retrospection,” is a tribute to the Coupeville artist of Tsimshian heritage whose works previously had only been shared on Whidbey and Orcas islands. Family members will attend an opening reception from 6-8 p.m. tonight to represent Purdue, who died from Parkinson’s Disease a year ago. “He would have popped his buttons,” said Sara Purdue, his wife of 37 years. “He would have been so proud. He also would have been happy because it is like tipping your hat to his mother and great-grandmother and the people in the Tsimshian culture. It’s part of his heritage. He wanted to share that. He loved doing art.” Purdue, a longtime art teacher in the Oak Harbor School District, specialized in meticulously detailed serigraphs that reflected Northwest Coast native culture. He also turned to woodcarving in the 1990s and created

It’s the first time Purdue’s artwork has been shown outside Whidbey and Orcas islands. a salmon wheel that is on display in the new “Native People — Native Places” exhibit in the Island County Historical Museum and designed the whale wheel located at the Coupeville Wharf. In a day of technological production of art prints, Purdue worked with the late Carol Peralta of C.P. Prints in South Whidbey to create highly crafted serigraph prints by hand. Purdue donated and sold many of his works locally
but not to the larger market, said Michael Ferri, a member of the Penn Cove Water Festival’s board of directors. That’s what makes the Stonington Gallery’s decision to show a collection of Purdue’s prints that much more special, Ferri said. The family brought 33 of Purdue’s works to the Stonington Gallery for consideration to display. “I think it’s incredible and exciting,” said Ferri, Purdue’s cousin by marriage. “When you look at the list of
artists the Stonington Gallery carries, those are some of the top in their field in Northwest Coast native art. It’s a great honor.” The show at the Seattle gallery is part of the First Thursday Art Walk. Purdue’s prints will be on display through Feb. 28. The gallery is located at 125 South Jackson St. Grace Purdue, Roger’s daughter, came up with the idea to bring some of her father’s art to the gallery for consideration so oth-

Move to all-day kindergarten is not just smart, but long overdue More kindergartners than ever are spending the entire day in school. Those few extra hours a day have exponential impacts on student achievement, but, unfortunately, not every kindergartner in Washington state has that option. While more affluent districts have long offered fulltime classes, some school districts with lower tax bases simply can’t afford it. That’s especially worrisome because research has shown that all-day kindergarten can help close the achievement gap between young children from minority and low-income families and their peers. State lawmakers, under pressure to fully fund education, are taking steps in an effort to make full-day programs available throughout the state. Yet the first priority will understandably be to fund schools with a high percentage of students who receive free or reduced-price lunches. That means Coupeville schools likely won’t see funding from the state in the near future. As a result, Coupeville school officials found another way to move ahead with full-day kindergarten next year. It couldn’t happen too soon. The National Education Association extols the many virtues of all-day programs. Research shows that children in full-day kindergarten classes show greater reading and mathematics gains than those in half-day classes. Five-year-olds are more than ready for the longer school day and do better in a setting that allows them to learn and explore activities in depth. Full-day kindergarten provides an essential bridge between prekindergarten programs and more structure learning in first grade. Teachers prefer full-day classes because they get to know their students better and the kids simply learn more. Parents also prefer full-day kindergarten, according to the association. Of course, all-day kindergarten is more convenient for many parents of young children, particularly those who work full time. It can be difficult to arrange transportation and childcare for little ones at odd hours of the day. But of course, the top concern should be providing our children with a great education. And all-day kindergarten is a necessary step.

Their stocks have fallen and the divestment campaign is gaining momentum. Even the Rockefeller Foundation has committed to divesting. It is estimated that when the carbon bubble bursts, it
will be five times the magnitude of the housing bubble of 2007. The polar ice cap is shrinking. The ocean is souring. The sea is rising. The evening news looks like the Book of Revelations. The Pentagon is worried. According to Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, “Among the future trends that will impact our national security is climate change, rising global temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, climbing sea levels, and more extreme weather events will intensify the challenges of global instability, hunger, poverty and conflict. By taking a proactive, flexible approach to assessment, analysis and adaptation, the Defense Department will keep pace with a changing climate, minimize its impacts on our missions
and continue to protect our national security.”(DOD 2014 Climate Change Adaptation Road Map). Let’s make the leaders of our suicide economy have an even worse 2015. Join us. Bring a sign.

Grave marker’s tale of love and prejudice Harry Anderson Rockin’ a Hard Place
I
Source: WSU Island County Extension
n historic Sunnyside Cemetery, overlooking beautiful Ebey’s Prairie, there are hundreds of old and elaborate markers showing where the prairie’s white pioneer farmers and their families eternally rest. The Ebeys, Coupes, Libbeys, Lovejoys, Hancocks and Engles are there, among others. And in one tranquil spot lie the early LeSourd pioneers, notably family patriarch Francis Asbury LeSourd (1843-1921), a Civil War veteran who brought his young family to Central Whidbey from the Midwest in the mid-1880s and became a successful farmer. The LeSourds’ two-story Victorian farmhouse, built in 1892, still stands at 220 S. Ebey Road. A small, flat, brass marker lies in the southwest corner of the LeSourd family plot at Sunnyside, quite unlike the upright granite markers of the LeSourds themselves. Inscribed on it are these simple words: “AH SOOT Born in China DIED IN 1925.” And therein lies a fascinating tale of how a family’s abiding love for a man from China overcame the pervasive and vicious race prejudice of its day. A tale so enduring that it still is recalled fondly by some of Francis LeSourd’s great-grandchildren — among whom are current Central Whidbey residents Al, Roger and Jim Sherman, grandsons of Francis’s son John; and Mark Bantz, grandson of Francis’s daughter Minerva (known as Minnie).
About 200 Chinese immigrants once lived in Ebey’s Prairie, mostly single men. The majority arrived between 1870 and 1900, seeking to make a living on the land. Many came to Whidbey by boat from Port Townsend, which had an active Chinese immigrant community. On the prairie, they worked as farmhands or sharecroppers for the white farmers, weeding fields and raising potatoes. Their prowess as gardeners was widely appreciated — and often essential — as the prairie’s agricultural economy developed, according to research provided by Ebey’s Landing Historical Reserve. It’s believed that Ah Soot (whom the LeSourds knew simply as “Soot”) arrived on the prairie in 1880, at about the age of 30. How he got here is unknown. He became a sharecropper on seven and a half acres of land he rented from pioneer Ernest J. Hancock, where he grew potatoes and other crops to sell and also earned a small wage weeding fields. When Francis LeSourd bought his farmland from Hancock in the mid-1880s, Ah Soot came with it. He lived in a small cabin within walking distance of the LeSourd family home. He never married and had no family of his own. A tiny man always dressed in a traditional Chinese silk tunic, he became a beloved figure, especially among the LeSourd grandchildren. In a letter she wrote to her own grandson Mark Bantz in the late 1960s, Minnie LeSourd Bantz recalled, “Old Ah Soot was a very loveable fellow and seemed just like one of our family. He was lavish with presents for all of us, especially at Chinese New Year, which was later than ours. His gifts consisted of firecrackers, candy, candied ginger, tea, silk handkerchiefs, silk scarves and a Chinese sword made of coins
which hung on our wall for many years.” As Francis LeSourd grew elderly and frail, Ah Soot took over many of the morning household chores at the “big house”: starting the fire, milking the cow, feeding the chickens, cooking the breakfast, even getting children ready for school. But while Ah Soot became “just like one of the family” for the LeSourds, a deep racial prejudice began to brew among elements of the white population on the prairie. According to research by the Reserve, the Chinese were resented by some of the Coupeville merchants because they kept to themselves and often didn’t spend their money in town but saved it or spent it in Seattle. Others complained that Chinese were taking jobs from white people, especially after the economy entered a severe downturn in the mid1890s and economic growth on Whidbey came to a standstill. By 1900, the prejudice became so virulent that a series of anti-Chinese meetings were held at the county courthouse in Coupeville. Some of the white farmers were pressured to sign an “agreement” stating that they would not rent land to Chinese or hire them as farm laborers. It was signed on Oct. 10, 1900, publicly posted around town and printed in the local newspaper. The effect was devastating. Some Chinese had their cabins burned or their potato storage bins dynamited by vigilantes. By the 1920s, almost all the Chinese had fled the prairie to Seattle or had returned to China. Ah Soot, by then in his 70s, was among the very few still living on the prairie, still in his own cabin, still “one of” the LeSourds. In her letter, Minnie recalled that Ah Soot rode with the family to Francis LeSourd’s funeral in 1921

As Ah Soot became ill over the next few years, Francis’s widow Mary asked him if he would like his body sent back to China when he died. “He said no,” Minnie wrote. “He said he wanted to be buried in our cemetery lot and go ‘up sky’ with Mr. LeSourd.” Minnie’s brother John, grandfather of the Sherman brothers, found Ah Soot dead one morning in 1925, sitting in his chair in his cabin.

But the LeSourds, particularly John, were insistent that their much-loved friend would be buried with the family, and Ah Soot became

Today, his brass marker still remains and LeSourd descendants still cherish a wrinkled old photograph of the odd but generous little man their family knew well and loved.

It was a historical week for the Coupeville High School girls basketball team. The Wolves won 46-22 at Chimacum Tuesday, Jan. 27, and 51-32 over visiting Klahowya Friday, Jan. 30, to clinch their first conference championship in 13 years. The boys, however, lost twice, forcing a must-win game at Port Townsend Tues-
day, Feb. 3. Results were not available at press time. A loss would eliminate the Wolves from postseason play. Each team has two regular-season games remaining. Coupeville hosts Chimacum in a doubleheader Friday, Feb. 6. The boys begin at 3:30 p.m. and the girls follow at 5:15. The final contest is Monday with Klahowya. The Coupeville boys play at home at 4:45 p.m.; the girls travel to Silverdale for a 3:30 p.m. game.

In Coupeville’s win over second-place Klahowya Friday, Coupeville scored the game’s first 13 points on the way to a 20-3 first-quarter lead. The second and third quarters were dominated by Makana Stone. Stone scored all 23 of her points for the game and all but two of Coupeville’s points in the periods as the Wolves went up 33-15 at halftime and 4521 after three quarters. Hailey Hammer finished the night with six points, seven rebounds and three assists. Madeline Strasburg collected 11 points, Kacie Kiel four, Kailey Kellner three (from a shot beyond the arc), Julia Myers two and Mia Littlejohn two. Monica Vidoni grabbed
six rebounds, and Wynter Thorne had two steals. The Wolves were in control from the outset against Chimacum, using a press to manufacture easy baskets. Coupeville held the Cowboys to only two points — both free throws — in the first quarter and led 15-2, then it pitched a shutout in the second quarter to go up 25-2. The Wolves became complacent in the third quarter, coach David King said, as Coupeville scored nine points and allowed six. Hammer, with strong post play, revived the Coupeville offense in the fourth periodwith eight points. Coupeville out-rebounded Chimacum 30-15. Stone grabbed seven, Hammer six and Strasburg and Thorne four each. Stone also had 18 points, two steals and two blocks; Strasburg added five points and three steals; and Kiel had two points and two steals. Myers finished with eight points and Vidoni two. Littlejohn produced a “productive” and “good defensive game,” King said. The freshman tallied three points, three steals and a block.
Bad quarters lead to bad results for boys
One unsteady quarter has stung the Coupeville boys basketball team in many of its losses this sea-
son, and the trend continued at Chimacum and Klahowya. Coupeville scored only six points in the second quarter and couldn’t recover in its 67-59 loss to the leagueleading Cowboys Tuesday, Jan. 27. Then the Wolves, down by only six at halftime to second-place Klahowya, mustered just three points in the third quarter and allowed the Eagles to pull away for a 58-39 win Friday, Jan. 30. In the Chimacum loss, the Wolves trailed by only four, 20-16, after the first quarter. In the second period, the Wolves “started missing shots and stopped attacking the basket,” coach Anthony Smith said, and trailed 35-21 at halftime. The deficit grew to 22 in the third period, and the Cowboys led 53-38 heading into the fourth quarter. Coupeville cut the margin to five late in the game, Smith said, but his club ran out of time and “played the foul game at the end.” Summarizing the game, Smith said, “The effort was there, we just need to play four quarters. We can definitely play with them.” Risen Johnson scored a career high 21 points. Wiley Hesselgrave added 13 points, Aaron Curtin nine, Joel Walstad seven, Ryan Griggs six, Matt Shank two and C.J. Smith one.

In the loss to Klahowya, the Eagles, who led 17-15 after the first quarter and 29-23 after the second, limited the Wolves to only three thirdperiod points while scoring 16 to pull away. “A little bit of everything went wrong” in the third quarter, Smith said. “We were not making shots. We were just playing catch on the
perimeter, and our offense is best when attacking and moving.” Although the Wolves lost, they received “another stellar game” from Hesselgrave, Smith said. The junior guard pumped in 23 points. Only three other Wolves scored. Curtin and Johnson tallied six points each, and Trumbull added four.

Kindergarten: District making move to offer full-time classes

just not consistent,” she said. “With full day they know their routine better, they get more instruction.” McWilliams said teaching kindergarten has changed a lot since she first started. “With all the standards it’s very different than when I started,” she said. “I’m basically teaching a first grade curriculum. “We do a lot of word expression with the kids. It’s more of a phonetic program. They’re starting to read pretty well.” The funding will cover an additional half teacher position needed to offer the two full-time classes. But Shank said the district hopes to attract additional students with the change. And if more students are enrolled, the school has room to expand to three classes. A kindergarten information night will be held 6:30-8 p.m. Thursday, May 21 in the elementary school library. Pre-registration for the 2015-16 school year will begin Monday, April 21. For more information, call Joyce Roethle at 360-6782474.
some of its Learning Assistance Program, or LAP, funds to help bring two fulltime classes to Coupeville. LAP programs serve eligible students who need academic support for reading, writing and math, or who need readiness skills to learn these core subjects, according to the state superintendent’s office. With special emphasis on reading literacy in the early grades, schools use their state LAP funds to deliver supplemental services that give these students the strong start they need for academic success. Shank said using the LAP funds fit into its approved uses because the district is not required to provide fulltime kindergarten. Currently, the district offers three half-day sections which serve about 47 students, Shank said. The district has 1.5 teacher positions dedicated for kindergarten. Kim McWilliams, who’s in her 11th year teaching kindergarten, said she is excited about the change to full-time classes. “It’s hard now because it’s
