Wednesday night at the Issaquah School District administration building on Northwest Holly Street, members of the community connected to Maple Hills Elementary in Renton spoke out during public input to the school board to protest the involuntary transfer of two instructors. Adora Callas, a special education instructor, and fifth-grade teacher Mary Shimchick have each been employed with Maple Hills Elementary for more than 13 years. Both were recently notified that they would begin the 2015-2016 school year at different campuses. Callas was assigned to Issaquah High School
and Shimchick was assigned to Discovery Elementary School in Sammamish. “If you had (told) me two weeks ago that I would be in this position, I would not have believed it,” Shimchick said to the board during the public input session. “But here I am.” A spokesperson for the district told the Reporter federal privacy laws preclude the Issaquah School District from discussing personnel matters publicly. When approached by the Reporter, Callas and Shimchick declined to comment further on the matter, though Shimchick noted she was not aware of a reason for the transfer. “I heard from others that it was said (the transfer) was not about my teaching skills, there-
fore I can only assume it is false judgment of my character based on hearsay and lies,” Shimchick said at the board meeting. “I have nothing in my personnel file that I am aware of and yet I am a target.” Following news of the transfer, dozens of letters were submitted to the school board asking them to reconsider. One of those letters came from Martin Friedman, the associate director of YWCA Works’ Passage Point, a housing program for parents coming out of the corrections system. Friedman’s letter, read to the board by Passage Point Community Coordinator Don Burnett, praised Callas’s work with of

“I responded,” he told the dispatcher. “I hit him with a pot in the head, a kitchen pot.” Pullman police found his 58-year-old father, Virgil “Cliff ” Luden, shortly before 5 p.m. Saturday in his son’s apartment near Washington State University. Police arrested Erik Luden, who remained silent and requested an attorney at the scene. He is currently being held at Whitman County Jail on a $500,000 bond, awaiting his arraignment in the Whitman County Superior Court Friday at 10 a.m. Police had found the steel pot and but-

Thomas does not anticipate any negative repercussions, as the city has been in contact with that Washington State Department of Commerce. “They know we’re making progress,” he said. City staff will follow up with the state department after the June 9 city council study session.

He established his business, Sage Home Loans, in Issaquah and Sammamish in 2000. “Cliff was a very good businessman,” Sammamish Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Deb Sogge said. “He will be greatly missed.” She knew him primarily as an ethical business owner. She said he had started planning for retirement. He lived in the Trossachs neighborhood in Sammamish with his wife, Shannon.

King County trail plan meets Sammamish codes

East Lake Sammamish Trail designs still raise red flags for city staff, council members BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Despite King County’s efforts to reduce impacts to trees and landscaping along the southern segment of the East Lake Sammamish Trail project, Sammamish officials say there’s more work to do. The county released its 95 percent design plan in April as a good-faith effort to resolve some ongoing issues Sammamish residents have raised regarding the plan to widen and pave the trail. The updated plans show 40 more trees will be spared, bringing the total number of trees to be removed down to 29, but the yet-to-be resolved issues still include trail width flexibility and a storm water detention vault. “One item that just jumped out at me was the storm water vault location,” said Sammamish Public Works Director Laura Philpot during an update at the May 18 Sammamish City Council Committee of the Whole Meeting. She said the length of its west wall and its height raised some red flags. The vault was originally on the east side of the trail but was moved due to it’s impact to East Lake Sammamish Parkway. In its new location, the westward wall, called wall No. 5 in the plans, would act as a screen, 13 feet tall in some places, separating the trail and the residential neighborhood. “(The county is) still trying desperately to not have to build the vault,” Philpot said. “The only way to not have to SEE TRAIL, 6

he Greater Issaquah Chamber of Commerce held their annual Community awards banquet held May 29, at the HIlton Garden Inn. As a somewhat cynical journalist and former corporate manager, this writer has sat through many such an event without much enthusiam. But this one was different. It was fun. The food was good, the bar was open and the people were warm and friendly. There was something unique here — despite a warm sunny evening beckoning outside, the smallish banquet room was full of laughter. No one was in any hurry to go. There were obvious signs of a group of people who know each other well, despite being from completely different realms. Rather than just recognizing their own members, the Chamber champions the community. School administrators mixed with city folk, business- owners, police and fire officers. People young and old were celebrated. There were teen math scholars and teachers. A father and son who volunteer to help special needs kids race go-karts. There was a pair super-recycler Issaquah The shiny Golden ofbusinesses who were the very Dumpster award proud recipients of the Golden Dumpster award, (the small had a lid that replica even had a lid that opened and closed). There opened and was an award for the volunclosed teer who took on the rather dicey task of coordinating the shuttle buses during Salmon Days. More awards were handed out to Keyclubbers, a minister, a sportsperson and more. And there was royalty. Our own Ed Pingul of the IssaquahSammamish Reporter was crowned King. Pat Rhea (aka The Cake Lady) of Costco, was crowned as queen. Notably, Shelley Frey, a chaplain with Eastside Fire and Rescue was recognized for her essential role in helping those in traumatic situations. Fittingly, she received the ‘Hall of Fame’ award to great applause. The winners, of course, credited the support of others, for their success and good works. As for me, I’ll go again next year.

To the editor More support needed for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease There are more than 100,000 Washingtonians living with Alzheimer’s disease with over 300,000 caregivers. As an Alzheimer’s advocate, it is my privilege to represent them to our elected officials. Although my personal introduction to the disease occurred many years ago following my late grandmother’s diagnosis, its impact on her life, my life, and the lives of her loved ones continues to shape and strengthen my commitment to this important cause. Many social and medical advancements have been made in recent years; however, many of the challenges my family had to navigate pre- and post-diagnosis are the same challenges other families affected by Alzheimer’s must navigate today. In addition to being the sixth leading cause of death, Alzheimer’s is also the most expensive disease in the nation, costing families and taxpayers a total of $226 billion in 2015. That number will grow to $1.1 trillion in 2050, potentially bankrupting Medicare in the process. I want to thank Congressman Dave Reichert for meeting with Alzheimer’s advocates to discuss this crisis. I hope we can count on his support for increasing Alzheimer’s research by $300 million in 2016. We must simultaneously support the families currently facing this disease. I urge the Congressman to cosponsor the HOPE for Alzheimer’s Act, which will provide critical care planning to people who are newly-diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Senators Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell should also cosponsor this needed bill. Concerned citizens should contact Congressman Reichert and ask him to support these key priorities. Visit alz.org/advocacy to get involved with the fight against Alzheimer’s.

Flood best for Council I’ve had the opportunity over the last few weeks to talk to Tim Flood about issues in the city and his candidacy for Issaquah City Council. I am interested in the way Tim desires to represent the citizens of Issaquah. He wants to bring balance to development and transportation improvements to protect citizens from further traffic congestion. I like his conscientious approach of getting information on all sides of an issue before making a decision.
He strikes me as the kind of council member that I would want representing me. I am writing today to express my support for Tim’s campaign and my intention both to vote for him in the upcoming elections and to spread word to others of the value of his policies and abilities. I hope for his success.

Sidewalks needed along streets that connect to the 228th corridor With more development and traffic, the time has come to install sidewalks for residents near S.E. 4th, 8th and 218th. Each time we walk to the library, Farmer’s Market or other amenities along 228th, we have to walk along heavily-traveled roads with no sidewalks — and along many stretches—virtually no shoulder. When I moved here in 2007 and inquired why there were only sporadic sidewalks around my neighborhood, I was told that sidewalks were “a developer’s responsibility as new neighborhoods were built.” This hodge podge approach to (what should be) an essential piece of infrastructure is not acceptable. Now that Klahanie will be annexed and new neighborhoods are being built, I’d like to see a portion of this new tax base be used to making it possible for me to feel safe walking in my own City ... and allowing my now tween/teenage children to do the same. Until sidewalks are built (and I use “until” deliberately instead of “if ” because I need to believe that the City cares about my family’s safety), I encourage drivers to yield to pedestrians along these streets, any streets without sidewalks. It’s very disconcerting to see vehicles approach you with only a few feet clearance.

Speed limits for runners Looks like runners will get speeding tickets on the new East Lake Sammamish trail if a 10 mph limit is imposed. While the rest of the regions’ trails have a 15 mph limit that work just fine, some people think that 10 mph is reasonable in Sammamish. To put that in running terms 10 mph is a 6 minute mile pace which many runners can achieve. The argument is that the slower speed is safer, but let’s look at this for a moment. Regardless of the speed limit, if people have dogs on long leashes across the trail, if children turn to left when riders call out “on your left”, when people walk three abreast and don’t share the trail, and if people wear ear phones so they don’t hear any warning, then you have safety issues. The trail is shared use trail. Let’s keep that in mind and respect each other’s use of the trail and be responsible for your own safety. Let’s also remember that a speeding ticket on a bicycle counts as a vehicle moving violation. Going 12 mph in a 10 will cost the rider $113, not a fair fine if walkers are not equally fined for what I mentioned above. And a fast runner would get fined $124. Really? Let’s keep it all reasonable at 15 mph. Pete Hartmaier, Woodinville

STEM students take on Sammamish transportation issues BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Skip ahead to Sammamish 2035. Imagine East Lake Sammamish Parkway with a two-to-one lane configura-
tion, with two northbound lanes getting commuters onto State Route 520 and then a shift to two southbound lanes getting drivers down to Interstate Highway 90 quickly. Imagine a shuttle service running along 228th Avenue from Issaquah-Pine Lake Road to Sahalee Way, with beefier side streets to divert and spread traffic throughout the city instead
of clogging up on one main corridor. This, along with improvements like a network of environmentally friendly paths and bikeways safely connecting and intersecting throughout the city, is what a group of Tesla STEM High School juniors envisioned for Sammamish 20 years down the road. STEM teacher Mike Town teaches the environmental engineering and sustainable design course where students broke into groups of five, picked a city on the Eastside and developed a transportation plan looking 20 to 30 years out. “The interesting thing is that each of those cities have uniques transportation problems,” Town said. “Sammamish is one of the tougher ones.” Students were assigned to cities based on where they lived; the Sammamish group, Nivi Thomas, Anton Bezruchkin, Nolan Orloff, Sabreen Mohammed and Suraj Buddhavarapu, are all Sammamish residents. “To the core, we’re a residential city,” Buddhavarapu said. “Sammamish was

modification.” Tree removal was probably the most concerning portion of the county’s plan and will be something the city continues to monitor, even after the county committed to retaining about a mile’s worth of trees. Other concerns that were addressed in the updated plan include the county’s stringent sight distance criteria and adverse impacts to critical areas. “They were using very onerous and risk adverse standards that far exceed what the city has used,” Philpot said of the county’s sight distance criteria. The criteria the county had been using required more landscaping be removed. While all plants will not be saved, more will be retained using the city’s standards.

detention is if they could have a public drainage way all the way to the lake.” These large walls were something residents had complained about during the construction to the northern segment of the trail, Philpot said. The northern segment is slated to open in June. The city had also requested some flexibility with the trail width. The city asked the county shave off some of the 3-foot buffer planned for either side of the eventual 12-foot-wide trail. “They’ve stated pretty affirmatively that they don’t intend to narrow the trail through this section,” Philpot said. “They didn’t feel that the impacts were great enough to warrant that

To determine how much vegetation to remove, the county had been measuring 14.5 feet right and left from the stop bar, whereas city uses a 10-foot measurement. The county had also assumed a traveling speed of 20 mph, while the actual speed limit on the trail is 15 mph. Bikers also sit lower, by about 7 feet, than drivers, Philpot said, which factors into the appropriate distance. “They all seem (like) very small changes but they do make a difference on the ground,” Philpot said. The county is also making efforts to move the trail farther eastward in order to minimize impacts on trees and other mature landscaping. Previously, the county had avoided the eastward side of the trail, as it had mostly been designated as wetlands. City staff are encouraging the county to take advantage of the wetland buffers. While the city is pushing the county to use the wetland buffer, Sammamish staff are also stressing the

importance of maintaining the wetlands to help keep phosphorus levels low. Councilmember Nancy Whitten has repeatedly taken issue with how the county will mitigate for phosphorus discharge into the lake. According to Sammamish codes, the trail, classified as a non-motorized facility, is exempt from water quality treatment — meaning the county does not have to mitigate for phosphorus. Even still, Philpot said the county has committed to reduce levels by also using native plants and non-phosphoric fertilizers. Despite the issues city officials and residents might have with the plans, Philpot said the designs meet city code. City and county staff will continue reviewing the plans. Once complete, the city will review the county’s permit request and will either approve or deny it. Philpot does not know when the permit will be ready to submit.

technology which will synchronize 11 intersections from the Issaquah-Pine Lake Road Southeast intersection at 228th Avenue to the Northeast 12th Place and 228th Avenue intersection. The group's goal was to not only get people off the Plateau quickly, but to reduce the environmental impact of idling cars. “In this course, we try to come up with solutions to climate issues,” Town said. He said the transportation element of the course is “critical” because about 40 percent of greenhouse gases released in this area are attributed to vehicle emissions. Streamlining stoplights and lowering the time vehicles spend idling on the street will help reduce these emissions. For Buddhavarapu, who’s lived in Sammamish for the vast majority of his life, the project really opened his eyes to the identity of the city. He hopes to pursue a career in mechanical engineering and would like to continue working in the transportation field.

Fundraisers rake in $710k for schools foundation BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The Issaquah Schools Foundation raised more than $710,000 through two recent fundraisers, according to an announcement made Thursday by the school support nonprofit. The proceeds came from the Nourish Every Mind luncheon, held May 14, and breakfast, held May 20. They will be used to fund programs for students throughout the Issaquah School District. Those include academic programs such as financial literacy classes for eighth grade students;
clubs for users of Scratch, a free visual programming language developed by MIT for young learners; and professional development. They also include health-oriented programs such as the Healthy Youth Initiative, which includes the Building Emotional Strength Together support group and Influence The Choice video contest under its umbrella. About half of the Issaquah Schools Foundation’s revenue comes from the Nourish Every Mind fundraisers, Foundation Development Director Lynn Juniel said. The Nourish Every Mind breakfast
was added alongside the luncheon last year. “Since the introduction of the Breakfast, we’ve experienced about a 10 percent increased in revenue but, more importantly, we have been able to expose the foundation to a wider audience,” Juniel said. “We are now able to reach parents and community members who leave the Issaquah area during the day. They, too, care deeply about our students and want to invest in their education.” Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363 ext. 5052; dnash@issaquahreporter.com
students of reforming parents and noted she had “stepped up” alongside other staff in 2012 to improve school relations with the program. The letter also pondered whether — as wondered by others, it read — Callas had been labeled as a “troublemaker” or “difficult.” “She is an incredible educator and she is a professional who understands how to build strong community with populations labeled as ‘difficult’ while at the same time remaining professional,” Friedman wrote. Deborah Jacobson, an educational assistant at Maple Hills, said news of the transfers had contributed to a four-year decline of staff morale, describing attitudes as “confused, wary and genuinely disappointed.” “We’re confused because we’re not really sure what is being asked of us,” Jacobson said. “We’re told that the district wants to mix things up at our school to make it a better place. But they’re doing that by involuntarily exiting two very talented and successful teachers from our family.” Under its collective bargaining agreement with the Issaquah Education Association — the local chapter of the Washington Education Association teachers union — the district can initiate staff transfers for reasons including changing enrollment, budgetary shifts and the termination or addition of educational
programs. The written procedure calls for the district to first call for volunteers among certificated staff. If not enough certificated staff volunteer, the district may initiate transfers involuntarily based on a written procedure that considers factors such as seniority or unique skills. But PTA President Beth Hardy said Callas and Shimchick were important teachers in Maple Hills’ community. She tearfully read a letter from a parent detailing how her son, Matthew, said his attendance in Shimchick’s class was the first time he felt like he belonged. “Maple Hills has already had a problem with teacher turnover,” Hardy said. “We cannot lose more experienced and admired educators.” Prior to public input, a school board official told the audience that, though dialogue about the transfers had been largely civil, Superintendent Ron Thiele had received one threat. An officer with the Issaquah Police Department met with district staff earlier in the evening and a patrol car remained in the parking lot for the duration of the school board meeting. An investigation into the threat remained open as of Monday afternoon. The department could not share details of that investigation while the case remained open.

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Last week, the Issaquah School District purchased two student paintings for its Kateri Brow Memorial collection. At the May 27 meeting of the district’s school board, Superintendent Ron Thiele presented checks to Beaver Lake Middle School sixth grader Sanjana Natarajan and Cascade Ridge Elementary School fourth grader Himaja Kotti in exchange for their environmentally themed art. Natarajan’s painting,
“Marine Life in the Gulf of Mexico,” depicts fish and a turtle swimming in the bottom of the ocean. In her artist statement, Natarajan said the painting was meant to bring attention to the preciousness of marine life in the face of human intervention. “The world would be a better place if oil spills did not happen,” the statement read. Kotti’s painting, “A Need of Water,” depicts a young girl walking to a shore with eight jugs strapped to her back. “Water is a fundamental
human need,” Kotti’s statement read. Every year, the school district purchases one or two paintings from the PTSA’s Reflections art show to become a permanent fixture in the Kateri Brow Memorial art collection in its administration building. The Reflections art show is open to submissions from students at all grade levels and includes works from all performing, aural and visual arts.

Eagles girls track team earns Class 4A state title in Tacoma BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The weather conditions at the Class 4A/3A/2A state track meet at Mount Tahoma High School in Tacoma were ideal this past weekend. The Issaquah Eagles girls track team shined under the bright sunshine tallying 59 team points, capturing the Class 4A girls team title May 30 in Tacoma. Eagles’ sophomore Nikki Stephens competed in four events consisting of the 100-meter dash, 400-meter dash, 800-meter relay and 1600-meter relay at the meet. She captured second place in the 400 with a time of 55.56 and fifth place in the 100 with a 12.33. Her talents were on display during the relay por-
tions of the meet. Stephens anchored a first-place 1600 relay team with teammates Bella Foos, Sami Corman, and Elise Burdette which set a Class 4A state track meet record, clocking a 3:48.95 Saturday afternoon. She also ran the anchor leg of the 800 relay squad that captured second place, compiling a time of 1:40.99. The 800 relay team consisted of Alia Sugarman, Foos, Burdette and Stephens. The four-event stalwart enjoys competing in a plethora of events. “I’m always pretty hyped for it,” Stephens said. “It is hard running four events, but I think I can completely run one event and then go onto the next mentally. That probably has been the key to success for me.” Stephens said her fa-
vorite race is the one lap, 400-meter dash. “They key to winning in the 400 is having a very strong first 100. After that you can’t slow down your stride on the back stretch. You have to continue to be aggressive. When you get to the last 100 then basically its about just giving it your all,” she said. The Eagles girls track team’s state championship is a testament to their team togetherness and work ethic. “We work really well together and the fact that our girls team has been so strong this season has been the main thing that has really helped us,” Stephens said. “That has what has really pushed us to get those trophies every single meet.” Corman captured first

She edged out Gig Harbor’s Brenna Peloquin at the finish line by just 0.12 hundredths of a second.
Corman said she was behind for most of the race, which was uncharted territory for Issaquah’s top distance runner. “It was scary. I had some girls pass me and I never
really had that happen to me before,” Corman said. “I just really tried my hardest to stay with them. I knew all of the runners were reSEE TRACK, 10

I am an Eastside resident and UW graduate, and have been selling real estate in Issaquah and Sammamish since 2001. My focus is steeled toward assuring my clients obtain the very best positioning possible in the acquisition or disposition of their real estate. My strong negotiation strategies, research skills and competitive tactics have often assured my clients save (or make) the most money available, obtain the best protections needed, or at times, simply win the competitive bid in a strong seller’s market. Purchasing or selling real estate well requires a broad spectrum of skills and I work hard to keep these skills sharp for your benefit.

I found my calling in insurance because I have the opportunity to protect lives. It’s an honor to be a part of their life journey and when life events happen, I am there to help pick up the pieces and make them whole again. The characteristics of the Issaquah community are much like myself. Friendly, family oriented, and committed. I pride myself in educating families about insurance and why it’s important to know your coverage. I look for opportunities to continue doing what I love and help protect your dreams.
Tisha’s greatest joy is raising her two beautiful children. Native to the Pacific Northwest, they cherish time together- exploring nature ISSAQUAH | SAMMAMISH and traveling throughout the region.... along with their sweet, grey minischnauzer.

There is something about human touch that our generation has been missing out of. Living in a world full of mass produced poor quality products, we have forgotten the beauty and the quality of craftsmanship. There is a new movement in America and in the rest of the world to bring creativity and innovation back into our lives. Many quality products are built by hands all around us. This is where Artist Renee Pak shares her vision through Studio Den, a modern gift shop in Gilman Village; by bridging the artisans and consumers, she hopes to help customers find products that suit their taste, fit their needs, and last many years to come.
