HRCA lifeguards dive into training Father of drowning victim: `you are the last, best defense’ By Hannah Garcia

hgarcia @coloradocommunitymedia.com Pools typically evoke thoughts of warm weather and fun with friends, but for lifeguards and a family from Centennial concerns run deep over possible injuries and death in those chlorinated confines. With the swimming season underway, the Highlands Ranch Community Association brought all of its new lifeguards to one location for its annual training at the Southridge Recreation Center, closing down the pools to patrons. “We typically do it at each location (one of four recreation centers), but brought all of them together for first time in the interest of consistency,” aquatics coordinator Janice Weed said. This year, the staff brought in Bill

Christopher Houser practices reviving an infant at the Southridge Recreation Center during a May 18 lifeguard trainings ession.

O’Melia, whose son Drennen drowned in a Centennial pool in 2010, to speak publicly for the first time about drowning prevention to the new hires. If it’s a question of vigilance, Weed wants her lifeguards to be prepared for anything that might happen in the organization’s community pools. The staff holds in-service training each month as well, Weed said. Training covers any situation, from enforcing pool rules to resuscitating victims to fishing out a pool patron with a neck injury. For spinal injuries, lifeguards should have the victim out of the pool on and the backboard in three minutes, Weed said. “It’s always life over limb,” Weed said. “If someone is injured in the pool, we want to get them out as quickly as possible.” The association also performs internal audits regularly to assess its lifeguards and its procedures, Weed said. Around 250 new lifeguards were at the annual training seminar. Weed said HRCA will have a total of about 300 in the new hiring class by the time their fully staffed for each of the organization’s four recreation centers. O’Melia, who founded the Drennen’s Dreams Foundation with his wife Melissa in 2012, spoke to the new lifeguards about his son’s passing on June 6, 2010, and all of the wrong decisions by lifeguard staff that may have contributed to Drennen’s death. “I only thought I’d talk in public about construction and building,” O’Melia said. “But life threw me a curveball, and now I talk a lot about water safety.” O’Melia played the 911 call from that day from a lifeguard who said that Drennen was not breathing or conscious but was constantly “throwing up” during resuscitation efforts at the Centennial Country Club. Drennen had just started his seventh season swimming competitively and just competed the day before he drowned. O’Melia showed the training class a video of his son darting through his lane on June 5, 2010 and asked the training class, “how many of you would think this swimmer would need special attention?” O’Melia said that the AED on site was not used while trying to revive the boy and that Drennen was discovered submerged 5 feet from an unmanned lifeguard standing by fellow children who were attending at birthday party who “noticed his color was not right,” not by lifeguards on duty.

Bill O’Melia, the father of 12-year-old Drennen who drowned in a guarded pool in 2010, speaks publicly for the first time to a group of new HRCA lifeguards during a May 18 training session at Southridge Recreation Center. An expert at a civil trial said that Drenner was submerged for at least five minutes but probably closer to 10, according to O’Melia. The longer a drowning victim is in the water, their chances for survival decline rapidly. “After four years, there are good days and bad days,” he said. “There’s not been one single day since June 6, 2010 that we don’t think about Drennen. All of this tragedy because of the choices made.” “You are the last, best defense against drowning incidents,” O’Melia said, pointing out that some parents or guardians may not be as vigilant when they know lifeguards are around. “Fair or not, this is the world you’ve chosen to participate in. Patrons are counting on you.” As for Drennen’s Dreams Foundation, the O’Melias are in the process of fundraising and forming partnerships to spread pool safety awareness. A second annual “Splash Dash” is scheduled for June 8 at Arapahoe High School. “We hope to grow it as large as we can,” O’Melia said, citing a goal to reach out to smaller organizations who don’t have the same resources as HRCA. “It’s a positive response to a negative situation.” For more information, visit www.drennensdreams.org.

Rock Ridge Elementary School’s principal was put on administrative leave under allegations of misconduct on May 16, the same day parents and students protested in defense of the school’s teachers. Amber Sorg already had submitted her resignation in early 2014, and planned to work until June 30. Her leave comes six weeks ahead of that planned last day. Douglas County Sorg School District officials aren’t saying why Sorg was put on leave, noting it is a personnel issue. In a May 19 letter to Rock Ridge parents, DCSD’s assistant superintendent of elementary education Ted Knight called the situation “regrettable,” and asked parents to respect Sorg’s privacy. “I know that this will be difficult news for many of our students and we feel that it is best shared by parents, so we encourage you to have a conversation with your child tonight about the change,” Knight’s message read. Incoming principal Michelle Colton will be brought on board earlier than planned “to help keep the learning environment as stable as possible,” according to Knight. Parents think they know the reason Sorg, who became principal in 2012, was put on leave. “I believe this happened because parents dared to voice their opinion on our children’s world class education,” said Jen Johnson, who has two kids at Rock Ridge and participated in the May 16 protest. “We collaborated together, and spoke out against our teachers being bullied and demoralized. I believe Amber is being punished because of parent actions.” Johnson said the atmosphere at her children’s Castle Rock school was strained when she came to do her volunteer shift May 19. “There were police officers outside our school, and two more in cars in the church parking lot across the street,” she said. “When I walked in, the air feels different. Teachers who would normally come up (to me) didn’t, because they’re afraid. No one was talking to anyone besides parents asking, `What the hell is going on in our school?’ “This is our neighborhood, where my kids are growing up. To watch and feel this happening in my own school is sad, and it makes me angry. It shouldn’t have happened.” Principal continues on Page 13

E-recycling helps task force, disabled workers More than 2,000 pounds of old electronics collected to benefit local food bank By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com People lined up early on May 17 at Meadows Middle School in Castle Rock to drop off their old TVs, computers and cell phones at an electronics-recycling event hosted by the Douglas/Elbert Task Force and Blue Star Recyclers of Colorado Springs. Proceeds raised from gross materials recycled in excess of 2,000 pounds will benefit the Douglas/Elbert Task Force Food Bank. Computer monitors fetched $10 each. TVs were measured diagonally — and brought in $1 per inch. It was $5 to have a hard drive destroyed and each battery netted $1 per pound. All other electronics recycling was free. The Douglas/Elbert Task Force also accepted non-perishable food items for its food bank as well as monetary donations. “We see some really generous folks coming out. It helps them clean out there

basements and garages, keeps things recycled, but then, we also get people who love the task force and want to donate for us,” Douglas/Elbert Task Force Director of Philanthropy Joe Roos said. Roos said there were 16 volunteers at the event and that cars began queuing up to drop off items at 9 a.m. for the event that lasted from 10 am until 2 p.m. Blue Star has partnered with the Task Force for similar events in the past and said there may be another recycling event in Castle Rock in the fall. “We’re a nonprofit that recycles while creating jobs for people with disabilities.” Blue Star’s Director of Sales Arnie Navarro said. “Since we started about three or four years ago we’ve created 42 jobs for people with disabilities here in Colorado.” In addition from working to collect the recycled materials at the pickup events, Blue Star employs disabled individuals — such as those who fall on the autism spectrum — at their headquarters in Colorado Springs to break down the electronics. “The big difference between Blue Star and other organizations that create jobs for people with disabilities is that we pay our employees above minimum wage. We do not believe in 22 cents per hour. Every

The Douglas/Elbert Task Force collected more than 2,000 pounds of used electronics with the help of Blue Star Recyclers May 17 at Meadows Middle School in Castle Rock. Photos by Mike DiFerdinando single employee of ours makes more than that,” Navarro said. By paying a full wage to their disabled workers, Blue Star representative Chris Finant said they are actually saving the state of Colorado money. “Every dollar that we pay our employees would otherwise be paid by the state in support. People who are disabled get state support to their family and when we are paying them a wage, it basically gets subtracted off of what the state has to pay their family,” Finant said. “They’re earning their

way instead of having the money given to them from the state.” Another benefit of the Blue Star electronics recycling program is that it is able to be implemented all over the state, including in rural communities where jobs for the disabled are hard to come by. “In those smaller communities there’s nothing. A lot of the time they’re 100 percent unemployed. So when we go out to them and we give three people jobs, we just gave half the people in that town with disabilities jobs,” Finant said.

Survey finds residents optimistic about future Two-thirds of participants say things are heading in the right direction By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com A recently completed survey has given residents and government officials a snapshot of life in Douglas County. The survey of registered voters by Hill Research Consultants, released last week by the county, revealed that the majority of residents are content with the direction the county is moving in and are optimistic about the future. Of those surveyed, 67 percent said they feel things are moving in the right direction for the county, while only 20 percent said they are moving in the wrong direction. Twelve percent were not sure and 1 percent didn’t answer that question. “As a county commissioner reading this survey, we have a tremendous amount of support from our community and the things that we have been working on,” District 3 Commissioner Jill Repella said. “It’s an affirmation that we’re on the right track.” When asked if they were “very satisfied” with the county’s parks and trails, 70 percent of people said they were. And 54 percent said they were equally as happy with the law enforcement provided by the sheriff’s office. The majority of respondents listed eco-

nomic prosperity as their highest priority in the county. Fifty-one percent of those polled said that economic conditions are staying the same and 40 percent said things are getting better. Only 7 percent said things were getting worse economically. When asked if the county is a “good place to raise a family,” 82 percent said that is a “very accurate” statement, while 16 percent said “somewhat accurate.” Of those surveyed, 80 percent said it is very accurate to say Douglas County is a safe place to live and work, while 19 percent said that is somewhat true. Forty-nine percent said it is very accurate to say the county has “good schools and educational opportunities for all ages,” and 33 percent said that is a somewhat accurate statement. A combined 17 percent said that’s a notvery or not-at-all accurate statement. Respondents listed natural resources as their second highest priority for the county, and 58 percent of people said water was the most important resource for the county. “That was a new direction for the county and to have that strong of support from our citizens. To move in a direction that we haven’t been involved in before, that’s very encouraging because we have set (water) as a high priority,” Repella said. Areas of concern for those polled included transportation. When asked whether the county has a transportation system that is effective and adequate, only 16 percent said it was very accurate and 42 percent said the statement was somewhat accurate.

The Easter Egg hunt is one of many family-friendly activities that takes place in Highlands Ranch and throughout the county each year. File photo Of those surveyed, 34 percent said road maintenance was their highest transportation priority, while 27 percent said it was public or mass transit. “We’ve been investing quite a bit in transportation infrastructure and it was disappointing to see that the numbers there weren’t a little more positive” Repella said. “We’re going to dig into that. It might be a reflection of the congestion on C-470 that we are working on.” Repella points out that there have been

recent plans and projects to improve the transportation infrastructure, the benefits of which may not be seen until the projects are complete. “We’ve had a significant commitment in transportation infrastructure,” she said. The survey of 600 registered voters in the county — 200 from each of the three commissioner districts — was conducted by phone from April 3-7 of this year.

Respondents give economy high marks Nearly half of county residents say they’re better off than a year ago By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com Economic prosperity in Douglas County is on the rise, according to a recent survey by Hill Research Consultants. When asked if they were financially better off than they were a year ago, 49 percent of the people polled said they were. Only 25 percent said they were worse off, while another 25 percent said things were “about

the same.” When asked if they thought they would be better off financially a year from now, 67 percent said they would be. “That has been a very strong emphasis for us, that people have jobs and can provide for their families,” said Douglas County District 3 Commissioner Jill Repella. “Because quality of life starts with a job. If people can provide for themselves, than they can pursue quality of life. We always begin there.” “That was one that was important to us,” she added. “To see if the citizens were feeling the positive results of our economic growth, and it seems to indicate that they are. So that was encouraging.” Of those surveyed, 40 percent said “the

economic conditions in Douglas County as a whole” are getting better, while only 7 percent said things were getting worse. Fifty-one percent said the conditions have remained about the same. Repella said making conditions favorable to business by making sure things like permitting move quickly has led to much of the economic growth in the county. “Getting your businesses’ doors open sooner rather than later is worth more than any tax incentive that you could throw at anybody,” she said. “Children’s Hospital from groundbreaking to ribbon-cutting was done in 18 months. That’s unheard of. But that’s a credit to our building department.” Of the people polled in the study, 76

percent agreed that Douglas County was a good place to start a business. Repella said she gets comments regularly about how Douglas County is one of the best jurisdictions to work with on the Front Range. “We recognize the needs of the business community and we support them in getting up and running. And that has produced a very positive reputation,” Repella said. “Businesses, I would say, are almost flooding here. We couldn’t have even imagined having that kind of success.” Of those voters surveyed, 42 percent reported that their combined household income is $100,000 a year or more, while 14 percent have a combined household income of $50,000 or less.

70 years later, vet receives his medals Littleton VFW post helps 99-year-old man get recognition By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com When his country called, Alfred Padilla served proudly and well, earning five battle stars and seven medals. Nearly 70 years later, the medals are finally on his chest. “Of all my war experiences, this one right here is the best, most unexpected one,” the World War II veteran said on May 15, just after a ceremony in his honor at the Pat Hannon Veterans of Foreign Wars Post No. 4666. Padilla, who turns 99 on May 24, never joined the VFW until just a few weeks ago. He was busy living his life, building two family homes, running his own business and having three kids and six grandkids with his wife of 67 years, Virginia, who died six years ago at 92. “After serving in the war, Alfred felt he could try and do anything,” said U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner, who helped arrange for Padilla to finally get the honors he had coming to him. Part of the reason for the seven-decade delay is that medals often took longer to get to the soldiers than it took eager soldiers to get home. “My favorite memory is when I got my discharge papers,” Padilla said with a grin. But once Padilla hooked up with the Littleton VFW post, his comrades got right to work to make sure the government granted him his due. That “got-your-back” spirit, Padilla said, is what makes him most proud to be a World War II veteran. He served in the Army from March 1941 until June 1945 in the Headquarters Company, 2nd Signal Battalion, 2nd

ALFRED PADILLA’S MEDALS The seven medals Alfred Padilla was presented with are: European-African-Middle Eastern campaign medal with one silver service star Good Conduct Medal American Defense Service Medal World War II Victory Medal Honorable Service Lapel Button WWII Expert Badge with Carbine Bar with Machine Gun Bar Marksman Badge with Rifle Bar

Armored Division. He earned his battle stars in Normandy, Central Europe, Northern France, Campaign Ardennes and Campaign Rhineland. As a welding and maintenance specialist, part of his job was to sneak up to enemy tankers and weld the door shut, trapping those inside. “He’s a testament to the strength and courage of not only Mr. Padilla, but to others around Colorado and the world that stood up to grave threats,” said Gardner. Padilla’s son, Kenneth, said he was equally inspiring as a father. “My father’s a remarkable man who has lived a full life that has been filled with love,” he said. But if you ask Padilla himself, he says he’s awed by the honor but isn’t sure what he did to deserve all the fuss. “As far as I’m concerned, a big fat nothing,” he said. A fifth-generation Coloradoan, Padilla was born in Hoehne, near Trinidad, where his great-grandfather had been sheriff. Despite a limited education, he’s fluent in English and Spanish, and loves to read and do crossword puzzles, said his son. He started his own contracting firm after the war, and his stamp can be seen set in concrete throughout the state, including at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.

VFW Post No. 4666 Cmdr. Jack Woodman and U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner honor Alfred Padilla for his service during World War II. Photo by Jennifer Smith “He’s been an inspiration for us as far as values and ideals,” said his son. “We recognize the sacrifices our parents made. Our mom was incredibly hard-working, too. Together they set goals and ideals that we had to meet. The essence of the American work ethic is embodied in my parents.” Padilla today lives in Castle Pines, visiting the Littleton post occasionally to drink coffee and swap war stories with his fellow vets. Though the ranks of WWII vets are thinning, they’re being filled in with soldiers who served in Vietnam, Grenada, Afghanistan and other foreign lands. Gardner spoke of a William Jennings Bryan quote that’s emblazoned on the wall of the Capitol building: “Our government, conceived in liberty and purchased with blood, can be preserved only by constant vigilance.” “The people at Pat Hannon Post believe that isn’t just something you write on the wall, it’s something you put your lives on the line for,” said Gardner.

Coffman touts military, business background Republican wants voters to help him keep CD-6 House seat By Jennifer Smith

a May 17 interview at Bemis Library in Littleton. “He moved into the district not because he wanted to live there, but because he wanted to live in Washington, D.C.” He’s talking about Democratic challenger Andrew Romanoff, new to the district but not to politics. He served in the state House from 2000-08, as speaker from 2005 on. In 2010, he launched an unsuccessful Coffman bid to unseat fellow Democrat U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet. Coffman says that’s no replacement for real-world experience like his, including 17 years as an Aurora business owner and a military career that started in 1972. In 2005, he resigned his post as Colorado’s secretary of state to serve a tour with the U.S. Marines in Iraq. “I’m the only member of the Colorado delegation who served in the military during the Persian Gulf War and Iraq,” he said. He says that makes him uniquely qualified in his role as the chair of the Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, currently looking into the waitlist scandal as whistleblowers emerge around the country. “I think (VA Secretary Eric Shinseki) should step down or be fired, along with the senior bureaucrats that surrounded him,” said Coffman. “. … At first he denied problems, then, in my view, looked the other way and defended those who were responsible. He’s never said heads are going to roll if this is true.” Coffman points to the VA House Committee as a bastion of bipartisanship. “It’s not a Republican issue or a Democrat issue,” he said. “I really feel they all equally care about meeting our obligations to our veterans. I don’t see any daylight between us.” At one time, Coffman was perhaps most famous for being the owner of Buckley the Treasury Dog, his golden retriever that continued to visit the state Capitol even after Coffman left the office of state treasurer. Buckley died two years ago at the age of 10. But his new goldie, named Atty, livens up the home Coffman shares with his wife, Cynthia. Currently the chief deputy attorney general of Colorado, Cynthia Coffman is a Republican candidate for attorney general. Here are Mke Coffman’s quick takes on a variety of topics:

The economy

In Colorado, relaxing regulations impeding the aerospace industry is one key to a robust economy, said Coffman. He’s working with Bennet on legislation that they hope will help American aerospace companies export their products and technologies to international customers while still protecting national security interests. Encouraging more manufacturing is another of his priorities, and he joined the Rare Earth Caucus in an effort to make that happen. The group worked to convince the World Trade Organization that China is violating WTO rules by restricting export of metals commonly used to make parts for electronics. “I think free trade is important, but it also has to be fair

trade,” said Coffman.

Mental health Coffman would like to see a residential center for the homeless created at the Anschutz Medical Center in Aurora, with an emphasis on mental health. Along with Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., he launched a task force to study ways to better serve veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder. “As a nation, we’ve really fallen short on mental-health care,” said Coffman. “I think it has to be a priority, and it’s not just funding, it’s reforming the current system.” He says he’s also working with the African immigrant community to create a connection with the Aurora Mental Health Center. “I want to make sure they get some services that understand their culture,” he said.

Military funding “I think I’ve been fairly independent on that, especially because I think Republicans have the same problem that they accuse Democrats of on this. The important metric is the outcome, not how much you spend. I think that there is a lot of waste at the Pentagon. I think we can reduce spending without compromising security.”

Obamacare “I think health-insurance reform, health-care reform, is very important,” he said. I think there’s no question the system was flawed. But what I disagree with is upending the entire system to fix the parts that were broken.” He notes that when he was in the state Legislature, he supported laws that prohibited discrimination based on gender or preexisting conditions, and he supported insurance portability and spreading out the risk to a larger pool. “But I think we can do better,” he said. “I would support repeal and replace.”

Fracking “I think there’s been a resurgence in manufacturing jobs due to low-energy costs, which is primarily due to fracking,” said Coffman. He says safety regulations are imperative, but he trusts the states to be better able to create appropriate measures than the federal government. “The citizens have much greater access at the state level than they do to the Environmental Protection Agency,” he said.

Personhood While there’s been some debate over Coffman’s support of the “personhood” amendment that will appear on Colorado’s 2014 ballot, he says it’s overbroad. He notes his support of a ban on federal funding of abortion except for in the case of rape or incest or when the life of the mother is in danger, and says he’s opposed to all abortions after 20 weeks with the same exceptions. “I’m clearly pro-life,” he said. “I would not vote for it the way it is, and I think there are unintended consequences to it.”

Tragedy, camaraderie highlight DCSO awards Deputies, citizens earn commendations during annual event Staff report The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office handed out commendations at its annual awards ceremony on May 12 at Cherry Hills Community Church in Highlands Ranch. Seven Douglas County students were awarded sheriff’s office $500 scholarships based on efforts to make their neighborhoods a safer place through community service projects, school projects or family efforts. The scholarship is funded from DCSO’s “Shoot-out at Sanctuary” tournament.

Hundreds trained in suicide prevention at ACC Stepping up for our Communities event puts focus on mental health By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com “The first time I tried to kill myself, I was 11,” Casey McAndrew told the audience during the Stepping up for our Communities event at Arapahoe Community College on May 14. Today McAndrew is a member of the Children’s Hospital Colorado Youth Board, advocating for teens like her who are battling depression and other forms of mental illness. She ultimately got help by reaching out to her family and voluntarily admitting herself into a residential treatment program. “What’s so wrong about going there if that’s the only thing that will keep you from killing yourself?” she asked. “Fortunately for me, I had a strong enough relationship with my family and my friends that I was able to ask for help. But I know that not everybody does. There are people who, because they were scared, they killed themselves, and that should not be an option. About a year ago a friend told me that because of my depression, I was too broken for anyone to love me. Three hundred and sixty-four days later, I stand on this stage strong and alive. Thank you.” Organizers of the daylong event stressed that it was a day about hope, not despair. “We’re inundated by tragedy,” said Brian Turner of Mental Health First Aid Colorado. “It’s hard to not get angry and feel negative every day, and forget about all the good work going on out there. Today is about hope. Today is about feeling empowered.” Then Turner sent the 300 attendees into breakout sessions to learn Mental Health First Aid, which teaches practical methods

of dealing with a friend or loved who is exhibiting danger signs. “If we can talk about it, we can deal with it,” said Sally Spencer-Thomas, who founded the Spencer J. Carson Foundation after her brother killed himself. “As long as we treat it like a mystery, people are fearful.” Suicide is the most common cause of death for 18- to 34-year-olds in Colorado, said Rep. Tracy Kraft-Tharp, D-Arvada, who supports expanding the definition of people who can be involuntarily committed for mental-health treatment. Five such young people were honored during the event for their submissions to the Federation of Families for Children’s Mental Health. Cheyenne Jamerson wrote that her depression feels like your shoes are dragging you through the day. “If you are stuck in gray, I hope you find your rainbow,” she wrote. Another, Angie Carlie, said her depression spiraled out of control when her peers began making fun of her because her skin was a different color than the parents who adopted her. “I live in my shadow’s presence,” she wrote. “I am not me anymore, I am death walking on two feet.” Since being diagnosed, Sandy Cohn’s perception of her illness has changed. In the beginning, she said, “I imagined it’s a lot like expired food, damaged goods, not all there.” But after treatment replaced her selfmedicating methods, she says she’s adapted to the downs and learned that the ups are what matters. “I see it more as a gift from the lessons I was forced to learn,” she wrote. “One day everyone will know my name for immensely changing the world.” For more information on mental illness or Mental Health First Aid, visit www.admhn.org or www.nami.org.

union seeks state review of teacher rating system By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County’s teachers’ union is asking the Colorado Department of Education to review the district’s teacherevaluation system, saying it is “invalid and unreliable.” The union says the system’s problems have come at a cost to teachers’ morale and finances, and taken a districtwide toll in teachers who have left DCSD because of the evaluations. School leaders, meanwhile, say the union’s complaint is without merit. The Douglas County Federation submitted its request to the CDE May 12, starting a 10-day clock in which the state decides whether to take further action. DCF president Courtney Smith said DCSD failed to properly define the outcomes that teachers needed to reach to secure peak ratings under the system introduced in the fall of 2012, and hasn’t changed the evaluations despite numerous complaints during the roll-out year. “This has created such an incredibly demoralizing atmosphere in the schools because teachers don’t understand and evaluators can’t explain to them the different pieces of the evaluation,” Smith said. “Their careers and their professionalism are based on a flawed system nobody can explain to them. “It has created a flight of teachers out of Douglas County. We saw it last year; we are seeing it again this year.”

CDE statistics show a 13.2 percent teacher turnover rate in DCSD during the 2012-13 academic year — lower than the state average of 14.8 percent during that same time. In 201112, the district’s turnover rate was 11.2 percent, and in 2010, 11.6 percent. School board president Kevin Larsen defended the evaluations in an emailed quote. “The union complaint is another attempt to stir controversy and chaos where there is none,” Larsen said. “This is a frivolous waste of time and resources. We simply don’t understand why the teachers union would fight against a better and more fair evaluation for our teachers — especially when the union has not provided any specific input or feedback on this system, which has been in place for two years.” Smith said DCSD ignored repeated DCF requests to discuss the new evaluation system. “Our ideal would be going back to the (former) system or a collaborative system,” she said. “Since they refused to work with us on that, our only remedy is to appeal with CDE.” The longstanding contract between DCSD and the Douglas County Federation expired in 2012 after weeks of negotiations. Teacher and principal evaluations now are required in all Colorado school districts under 2010’s Senate Bill 191, also called the Educator Effectiveness Bill. Districts were allowed to adopt either the state’s teacher-evaluation program, or create their own. DCSD is among six that designed their own.

Most districts are using the state’s system, with some using a hybrid version. The union wants DCSD to use the state’s evaluation system, and to hold harmless any teachers who have been rated “partially effective” under the district’s system. The school district said it developed its system to meet CDE requirements, and has worked with teachers and onstaff evaluators to address concerns surrounding it — even creating an appeals process that allows immediate reviews and responses. CDE’s director of educator effectiveness said it will proceed carefully with the request for review. “With the current educational landscape, there are a lot of different philosophies,” said Toby King. “In Colorado, with districts having local authority, it’s important for us to be supportive as a state agency, and not to try to overstep our authority.” Even if the CDE moves forward with the request, “that doesn’t necessarily mean anything is bad,” King said. The evaluations are part of DCSD’s pay-for-performance program. Based on self-evaluations, meetings with administrator-level evaluators and other factors, each teacher was assigned a rating ranging from “highly effective” to “ineffective.” Pay increases are tied to those ratings, and also to a new market-based pay scale.

cation to our students.” The increases are based on performance, with the highest-performing employees receiving increases of 6 percent, according to the release. They also are tied to the district’s market-based pay system, in which employee pay is based on the difficulty of filling their particular position. According to the plan adopted by the board, licensed employees rated “ineffective” won’t get raises, and those rated “partially effective” are in line for a 1.5 percent raise. At the top end — for employees rated “highly effective” — raises

will range from 4 to 6 percent, depending on that individual’s placement on the market-based pay scale. Raises for those rated “effective” will range from 2.5 to 3.5 percent, varying according to the pay scale. All employees will get a boost in compensation to cover increased benefit costs, the release states. The total 2014-15 compensation-package increase for licensed teachers is $8.6 million, according to the release. Larsen said DCSD’s pay increases are among the largest along the Front Range.

Staff report

collaborated to write scripts, shoot scenes and edit footage to create 60-second videos illustrating the importance of living life free from distractions. After selecting the top three finalists, CDOT opened a public vote via Facebook. In the end, the public chose Mountain Vista High School’s creatively crafted video that uses humor to resonate with its audience but still delivers a serious message. The winning video can be viewed at www.vimeo. com/91449959. Mountain Vista High School nabs the $2,000 grand prize and the participating students will join the stage with Rachel and the Kings at a benefit concert later this month in Denver. The winning video will also be showcased on stage at the show. Representatives of CDOT will present a check to Mountain Vista High School’s participating students and their parents at the upcoming concert on May 31 at the Marquis Theater in Denver.

District announces plan to boost school staffers’ pay Staff report The Douglas County School District plans to give staff members an average 3 percent pay increase for the 2014-15 school year. The compensation plan was approved during a special May 16 meeting. “We value our outstanding teachers and employees,” school board president Kevin Larsen said in a news release. “Our staff deserves this increase for their hard work and dedi-

Mountain Vista earns first in CDOT contest In April, Mountain Vista High School students in Highlands Ranch earned first place in the Colorado Department of Transportation’s “Life in Slo Mo” video contest in the spirit of Distracted Driving Awareness Month. Fountain-Fort Carson High School, South Park High School and Mountain Vista High School landed in the top three, with Mountain Vista High School taking the win. The interactive contest aimed to raise awareness about distracted driving among one of the most vulnerable populations on the road today: teenagers. To combat the rising numbers of teens’ at-fault crashes, CDOT teamed up with local pop band Rachel and the Kings to launch the video contest earlier this year. The contest incorporated the band’s hit song “Slo Mo,” which sends a message about slowing down and living life in the moment. Teens

Volunteerism may pay off big for teens contest dates

Staff report CenturyLink, in partnership with the Colorado Rockies, is looking for nominations from teens who make a difference in their communities through volunteer efforts. During the four-month “CenturyLink Teens in Action” program spanning the summer, CenturyLink and the Colorado Rockies will select six deserving teenagers to receive a special award package as part of the recognition. Winners receive tickets to a Colorado Rockies game and on-field recognition as part of the honor. In addition, $2,000 will be donated the nonprofit where the teen volunteers. “CenturyLink believes in the power of community service and wants to shine a light on the next generation of volunteers in Colorado communities,” Scott Russell, CenturyLink vice president and general manager, said. “By recognizing their selflessness and generosity, we hope to empower our youth and inspire them to make a difference in the community.”

Deadlines: May 24 June 7 July 12 August 9 August 23

Presentation Dates: June 8 June 21 July 26 August 23 September 6

The program will be evaluated on an original 250-word or less essay describing the experience of volunteering for the nonprofit organization. Anyone can nominate an outstanding Colorado teen volunteer between the ages of 13 and 18 by submitting an essay at colorado.rockies.mlb.com. “Identifying and recognizing outstanding teen leadership in our community is why we are very excited to partner with CenturyLink,” said Greg Feasel, Rockies executive vice president and COO. “To acknowledge teens that volunteer their time and efforts to make a large impact on so many lives is a program that our organization is proud to be a part of.”

Farm & Ranch Day to offer educational opportunities 4-H and Future Farmers of America members will be taught how to show their animals By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com The Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation’s historic Lowell Ranch on Plum Creek is inviting the community to come learn about rural life at Farm & Ranch Day May 31 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The county fair is two months away and local 4-H and Future Farmers of America members need to hone their show ring skills to impress the judges. Accompanied by their steer, lamb, or goat project, they will gather at Lowell Ranch to learn about handling and showing their livestock to help win a treasured blue ribbon during the summer show season. Competitors will be under the guide of experienced livestock showmen. “It’s an opportunity for the kids to learn how to show their animals before the big show over the summer,” said Brooke Fox President of the Colorado Agricultural

Leadership Foundation. In the afternoon, 4-Hers and FFA members will compete with their peers in the Jackpot Showmanship competition for prize money. Competitors may register for the Showmanship Clinic and Jackpot at www.thecalf.org “The focus this year is to try and provide more educational opportunities,” Fox said. “This year we’re doing a series of classes. This is a whole new thing.” CALF is hosting a variety of educational classes throughout the day. Visitors will have the chance to go on a mushroom hunting tour, watch Jackie “Cheese” demonstrate making mozzarella and ricotta cheese, plant d garden containers with Tagawa Garden’s Luan Akin and learn how to manage those weeds with Jennifer Cook of CSU Extension. Visitors can learn to shoot archery or air rifles at the Douglas County 4-H shooting trailer. Small children can see animals at CALF’s Lowell Ranch including baby chicks, pigs, sheep, cattle, a miniature horse, goats, chickens, turkeys and ducks. “It’s great for the kids and the 4-H and FFA members, but it’s a fun thing for the public to see as well,” She said. Admission is free courtesy Murdoch’s Ranch and Home Supply. Hayrides are available for a nominal fee which helps support CALF’s mission of Connecting People to Agriculture.

The event will be held at 11 a.m. June 7 at the city’s World War II memorial, 6000 S. Gallup St. in Littleton. The master of ceremonies for the event is Rick Crandall, an on-air personality at radio station KEZW.

The event is being sponsored by Littleton’s Pat Hannon Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4666 and George Evans American Legion Post 103. “We try to mark significant World War II anniversaries and take the opportunity to honor all those who were members of the Greatest Generation,” said Joe Leber, past commander of Pat Hannon VFW Post commander. “We want anyone who served in any capacity during World War II to join us. That includes those who were on the American home front as well as those were overseas.”

Leber, patriotic chairman for the VFW post, said VFW 4666 and American Legion 103 have collaborated to hold ceremonies on anniversaries of several key World War II dates such as Pearl Harbor. Their first ceremony for D-Day marked the 60th anniversary on June 6, 2004. “A member of our post, John Pellegren was drafted at 18 and he was 19 when his unit landed on Omaha Beach at 19,” Leber said. “John’s group was credited with knocking out the last pillbox, a fortified gun emplacement, to help open up the beach. A plaque recognizing his unit’s accomplish-

ment is on the memorial on Omaha Beach.” Pellegren and quite a few other World War II veterans came to the 2004 event, Leber said. The anniversary ceremony marks the 70th anniversary of the allied invasion of France on June 6, 1944. More than 160,000 allied troops landed on 50-mile stretch of beaches in Normandy, France. More than 5,000 ships and 13,000 aircraft took part in the battles to get ashore on beaches heavily fortified by Nazi German forces. There were more than 9,000 men killed in the D-Day invasion.

Schomp Automotive unveils expansion plans By Hannah Garcia

hgarcia @coloradocommunitymedia.com With new showrooms, dealerships and car models on the way, spring is shaping up to be a busy year for Schomp Automotive Group in Highlands Ranch. The group is expanding with two new dealerships next to Schomp BMW, located on Plum Valley Lane near the intersection of Lucent Boulevard and C-470. Schomp BMW is also adding a new car model to its inventory, an all-electric i3. Around 20 acres have been set aside for a new Honda and a new MINI Cooper dealership, which will be located to the east of Schomp BMW. There is no firm date yet, but Schomp BMW general manager Brian Briscoe said the group is in the planning and permitting stages for the new dealerships. The plan is to

start construction this year, possibly in the fall, Briscoe said, with completion around a year and a half later depending on weather. Lisa Schomp, who founded the company, is behind the scenes designing the dealership, spokeswoman Paula Wiens said. The Schomp Automotive Group already has a MINI and a Honda dealership in Littleton, located at 5700 Broadway. “The stores have grown substantially in terms of volume,” Briscoe said, claiming the new Highlands Ranch locations will increase customer service. Schomp BMW, volume-wise, is the largest store in the state with 42 models available and with another one the way. The new i3 features an interior comprising materials made from recycled bottles and the ability to drive 100 miles on a full charge. “It is, by far, the greenest car on the market,” Briscoe said. The dealership made about a $200,000 for

Moore named `Outstanding Youth’ By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com What some may view as a summer job, Bobby Moore has grown into a link to the future. Moore, recently selected as the 2014 Outstanding Youth of Lone Tree, runs a thriving lawn mowing business that’s sealed his desire pursue a business Moore degree. He plans to major in business at Colorado State University in Fort Collins. His selection as the city’s Outstanding Youth, which comes with a $500 award, is based on Moore’s academic, athletic and entrepreneurial accomplishments. The Arapahoe High School senior lives with his brother, Jack, and parents John and Judy Moore in Heritage Hills. But given his busy schedule, he’s not home often. Moore volunteers with the Unified Basketball Team, a team associated with Special Olympics. He also mentors middle school students as a WyldLife leader through YoungLife Ministries. He’s also a member of National Honor Society, National Business Honor Society, Future Business Leaders of America and Link

Crew. As a Link Crew member, Moore mentored 12 AHS freshmen through their first year of high school. He also plays basketball and tennis. And then there’s work. In addition to working at Qdoba, Moore operates the lawnmowing business he started at age 10. “This year, it’s really skyrocketed; I’m mowing 30 lawns a week,” he said. “Working with customers, keeping them happy, doing quality work, getting feedback from customers and organization — I think that’s really going to help me in the long run.” When the requests get overwhelming, Moore sometimes calls on his friends to help. “I’ve always enjoyed business, and this has given me a taste of the business world,” he said. “There’s so much opportunity in it.” A Minnesota native, Moore and his family moved to Lone Tree eight years ago when his father, employed by Chrysler, was transferred. He attended Cherry Hills Christian School from 4th through 8th grade. The Outstand Youth award was created in 2012 by the Lone Tree Youth Commission, a group of seven Lone Tree teens who serve in an advisory capacity to the City Council. “Lone Tree is full of hard-working, dedicated teens and this is an opportunity for us to highlight their accomplishments,” said Lindsay Nikolaeff, Youth Commission Chair.

before they hit the showroom floor if they’re not sold already, Briscoe said. “The brand is expanding and doing extremely well,” Briscoe said. “Our business model is a little different. We’re the original one-price store. We give customers our very best price up front to make it really easy.” Schomp BMW also recently earned its third consecutive title as a BMW 2014 Center of Excellence, ranking fourth out of 32 dealerships honored out of 339 dealerships nationwide. This is the third consecutive year that Schomp BMW has earned the designation.

the new car, including inventory and a new showroom. “It’s almost like a new franchise,” Briscoe said, pointing to the fact that typical BMW enthusiasts may not be the first to purchase the car. “It’s a bit of a different market. We’ll definitely sell some to residents in Highlands Ranch, but I think our biggest opportunity is in the downtown (Denver) area.” Schomp BMW will receive between 60-80 of the new cars, which Briscoe said was the “lion’s share” in the state. The dealership is also ordering five new i8 models, which is an electric hybrid sports car, but those will sell

opinions / yours and ours

Marijuana? Sorry, that’s not my bag I wonder how many of my columns have started with the word “I.” I resolved to do something about it, but here I go again. It would be too odd if I referred to myself in the third person, wouldn’t it? Or if I substituted my first or last name, and wrote something like this: “Smith wondered how many columns he started with the word `I.’” A bit stilted, huh? I have an opinion about almost everything. I am useless in science, business and technology, so I stay out of those areas. I also try to avoid topics that I have limited familiarity with, like health care and marijuana. I went to college in the 1960s, and you might think that I would have some kind of bachelor’s degree in drugs. I don’t. I could have, because they were all around me. I was sitting on my front porch one evening, and a hippie walked up and opened his hand. Pills. I’m not sure what they were. “Here. Free,” he said. “No thank you,” I said. I didn’t start to drink until I was 30. That’s not a typo. By the time I was 30, I

might have had three beers, a couple of glasses of wine, and that’s all. Marijuana was everywhere, but I wasn’t interested. I’m still not. So I haven’t written about it before. I don’t know what I am talking about. Tell me who is willing to admit that? I have read a couple of disturbing stories recently that made me think that I need to do some research and form a tangible opinion. A college kid consumed an entire pot cookie and fell to his death. A father of three ate some pot edibles, and shot his wife in the head while she was on the phone with 911. When Colorado passed the marijuana amendment I knew there would be

letter to the editor Board member’s claim unlikely At the May 6 Douglas County School Board “Unplugged” meeting, director Craig Richardson claimed that he “has no idea what the corporate (school) reform movement is.” I guess we are supposed to believe that it is a complete coincidence that the changes being made in Douglas County mirror the changes being made in school districts all over the country. I guess we are supposed to believe that one of our elected school board directors has paid no attention to education-related current events over the past few years.

He must think that we have forgotten that he acknowledged the district expense and corporate profit involved in Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) at the last board meeting, and that he ran on a platform of treating district parents as “customers” and creating competition among schools. Director Richardson is the poster child for corporate education reform, and he thinks so little of the parents he serves, that he lied about it to our faces and actually thinks we’re so naive that we’d believe him.

Who comes between you and your doctor? How many times have you heard politicians say that no bureaucrat should come between you and your doctor? You and your physician should decide when you need to go to the hospital or when you might want to wait out that cold before taking an antibiotic. At least that’s been the American ideal of the doctor-patient relationship. The reality is something very different. We are reaching a crossroads in this country in terms of physician autonomy, says Dr. Luis Collar, who writes on the blog KevinMD.com. In an essay a couple of weeks ago he wrote: “Despite the foul smog of competing interests that permeate this new delivery paradigm, one thing is clear— physicians are no longer calling the shots.” Collar is talking mainly about insurance companies and hospital administrators that are dictating what physicians can and cannot do. Increasingly, we are waking up to that realization. For me it’s been happening at the pharmacy where a kind of rationing is taking place in how much medicine people can get at one time. A woman comes into my local pharmacy and asks why she can’t get a 90-day supply of a medicine the doctor ordered. The pharmacist tells her the insurance company won’t pay for 90 days, only 30 days. Why? The pharmacist gives a couple of reasons. Insurers, he says, want to push people into mail order pharmacies or pharmacy benefit managers, which might be able to supply the drug cheaper. If patients become annoyed, more of them might agree to get their prescriptions through the mail. He also said they aren’t sure whether a doctor won’t change your medication so they don’t want to waste money on something policyholders might not need or use. In other words, the insurance company is making the call about what you will need and when you can have it.

What about getting enough for a long vacation? The pharmacist gives a date when the prescription can be refilled but it’s after your departure date. There’s always the option of paying out of pocket for the drug. That might be OK if the price is $11 or $50, but when the retail price is $400 or $600, what’s a patient to do? The Great Cost Shift that’s taking place in American medicine -- from insurers and employers who pay the bills -- has come to your local pharmacy. Here’s more evidence of the change in doctor/patient relationship. Recently I received a letter from my insurance carrier that suggested I needed a health coach “to get started on a healthier lifestyle.” The letter said that a nurse I could talk to once a month as part of a disease management program could help me reach my best health by suggesting ways I could lower my cholesterol, or lose weight, or by helping me with serious conditions like diabetes. “Because of your health history, we think you might benefit from joining our program,” the letter advised. What history? I don’t have diabetes. I don’t have a weight problem, and my cholesterol is normal. What did the insurance company have in mind for me? Were my eye medicines getting too costly for the company? Was the insurer trying to switch me to a cheaper medication? Did the insurer want to switch me to a different med? Eye medications are my biggest healthcare expense. Some are Health continues on Page 11

abuse, because there always is. Have you ever had a margarita? And nothing happened? Nothing seemed to be happening, so you had another one, and another one. Then something happened, and you couldn’t undo it. I have had a few hangovers. Bad ones. Nothing self-caused is worse. At my age, a relapse is unbearable. I used to be able to get up the next day and go. Now it would take three days to recover from a three-day relapse. I don’t want to become cross-addicted. To have quit drinking, and then to find my Hunter S. Thompson in marijuana. For some reason, and this is almost shameful, I think about Cheech and Chong whenever I think about dope. And what I think about Cheech and Chong is that they made some of the worst movies ever made, man. The word “man” has never been scripted so often. Along with “dude.” When I was drinking, my vocabulary did change, but it never went to casual addresses, like calling my neighbor’s wife “man.” How many of us, by percentage, are

high at any given moment? It’s halfway understandable, if you read the news. Living every day, as great as it is, is full of physical and philosophical and emotional obstacles and calamities. A friend of mine is no longer current with current events, because her own house is troubled. She has “inherited the wind” of an ex-husband, who is determined to discredit her, and to discredit her boyfriend. It’s very unfortunate and ugly. Consequently, she doesn’t know what is going on, because what is going on is going on with her. I brought up the capsized boat off of South Korea, and she was unfamiliar with it. You can tune the world out with a bottle of vodka. I don’t know what happens if you eat a marijuana cookie. Does it soften existence to a point of tolerance and acceptance? I’ll never know. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@ comcast.net.

Creating a lovable life Country recording artist Clay Walker’s song, “If I Could Make a Living Out of Loving You,” is an awesome reminder to think about what it is that we do each and every day. Whether it’s personally or professionally, we should be striving to do what we love and love what we do. The full verse from his song goes like this: “If I could make a livin’ out of lovin’ you, I’d be a millionaire in a week or two, I’d be doing what I love and lovin’ what I do, if I could make a livin’ out of lovin’ you.” One of my favorite conversations to have with someone is when they share their passion for what they do for a living, for themselves, for their family, or even recreation and fun. You can absolutely tell when someone is doing what they love and loving what they do through their body language, tonality of what they are saying and the colorful or powerful words that they actually use while sharing life’s exciting moments. Purpose is so meaningful and passion is so very powerful. My other favorite conversation or discussion to have with someone is when they are not doing what they love and loving what they do. They share stories of discontent, misery, and just plain old unhappiness. They could be unhappy with their job, their family life, and they have not found any time or anything to do that gets where excitement, purpose, or passion would have an opportunity to take root in their lives.

Now in the first group, it’s both fun and energizing for me to have conversations with people who share their enthusiasm with such joy. Sometimes their enthusiasm and passion become contagious and I find myself re-energized to pursue my own purpose and passions with even more zeal. The second group is really no different because it provides me with an opportunity to help them self-discover behaviors and attitudes that will lead them to a different way of thinking. You see, it’s not about the title we hold or the job we have, and it’s not about our lives compared to the lives of others. It comes down to how we feel about OUR productivity, OUR effort, OUR enjoyment, and OUR attitude that matters. Let me share an example with you. Years ago when I was visiting a customer on a very regular basis, I could not help but notice how immaculately clean their building

was. There was never a piece of paper on the floor, never any dust on the objects or plants in the lobby, and their floors always shined brilliantly as if the fresh coat of wax was just applied. One day as I waited in the lobby for my meeting, I met the man who was responsible for the appearance of the building. He was in his janitorial coveralls, working with precision detail as he worked his broom and dust rag. I decided to have a conversation with him and started by thanking him for the way he made the building look. I shared with him that I believed that the employees and visitors alike must surely feel a sense of pride when they come in because the place was sparkling clean all the time. With a huge smile and warm handshake the man thanked me and told me he had been employed by the company for the past 10 years. And he shared that most people that worked there often thanked him and commented on his ability to make the place shine. When I asked if he liked his job, he smiled again and replied

As patients, do we still want such relationships, or are we willing to sacrifice them as insurers and other big stakeholders in the healthcare game push to change that in the name of cost containment?

Upgrades bank on future savings for Douglas schools By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Construction under way at ThunderRidge High School and the Douglas County School District administration building will not only replace outdated systems, but will pay for itself over time and offset other DCSD project costs, said the contractor. “It’s a great way to get work done, especially with clients that are capital-constrained like Douglas County (Schools),” said Dan Gacnik, senior account executive with McKinstry, a Seattle-based company that specializes in building environments. “It’ll save energy and decrease maintenance costs,” Gacnik added. “Those savings pay for the improvements over time,

and we guarantee those savings. If those savings levels aren’t achieved, we cut our clients a check.” McKinstry and DCSD partnered on an energy-savings performance contract. The alternative financing mechanism includes a company guarantee that the improvements made will generate enough cost savings to pay for the project. “You’re utilizing future energy savings,” Gacnik said, adding that in DCSD, “We cut their energy bill by more than their finance payment to pay off the improvements.” Mechanical and ventilation systems at both ThunderRidge in Highlands Ranch and the Castle Rock administration building are due for replacement, and will be updated with more energy-efficient equip-

ment. Low-flow faucets and shower heads and automatic sensors also will be installed to save water. The $4.7 million project will save about $248,000 a year in energy and operational costs. According to McKinstry, upgrades in the two buildings will reduce their carbon dioxide emissions by 230 tons annually. The projects began in early May and will wrap up in September. The current work is the second phase of a construction project between DCSD and McKinstry. In 2013, the company fine-tuned operations at 11 other DCSD schools, educating students and staff in ways to ensure those utility bill reductions. Changes implemented during that $8.3 million project are expected to save DCSD

an additional $379,000 each year. Estimated savings from the two phases of work will lower DCSD’s annual energy costs by about $627,000. “If every school district in the country implemented similar measures, it could save over $1 billion in energy costs and prevent untold pollution,” DCSD sustainability manager Lee Smit recently said. “These facility improvements will benefit our students, staff and community for years to come.” The buildings in Phase I include Highlands Ranch High; Castle Rock, Ranch View and Mountain Ridge middle schools; and Arrowwood, Trailblazer, Northridge, Eldorado, Pine Grove, Meadow View and Prairie Crossing elementary schools.

In neighboring Cherry Creek School District, the scores declined from 2013 to 2014 by about 3 percentage points. Throughout Colorado, scores dropped by about 1 percentage point, with about 72 percent of the state’s third-graders scoring proficient or advanced. Last year, the rankings stayed relatively flat statewide and in Douglas County. The May results are considered preliminary, and won’t be official until the release of other state testing data in August. An emailed statement attributed to DCSD system performance officer Syna Morgan said the district takes any decrease

in performance seriously. It noted that both state and DCSD average scores fell in 2012, 2013 and 2014. State leaders replaced the former state testing model with the TCAP in 2012 to help introduce new academic standards. A new state exam will take its place next year. DCSD schools will compare the TCAP results to other testing data. “For the schools that have had a decrease in performance, we advise them to review all the grade levels when the rest of the TCAP results are released to investigate the root cause of the decrease,” the statement reads. Those investigations could reveal a brighter story. “For example, a school that has implemented project-based learning last year may see a dip in performance on the thirdgrade TCAP due to the fact-based focus of the test,” the email read. “However, the fifth-graders should show an increase due to the level of higher-order thinking expected of the project-based learning instructional model.” Of the district’s approximately 60 elementary schools, scores at 21 of them

stayed steady or improved from 2014 to 2013, district leaders noted. “We again stress the importance of having the right tests in front of our students to measure their academic gains,” Morgan’s statement read. Morgan is among many district leaders who’ve expressed concern about the increasing prevalence of standardized testing. Among those is the READ Act, implemented in 2013 to ensure more kids are reading at grade level by the end of third grade. Laura Mutton, a parent and president of the Strong Schools Coalition that has been critical of DCSD, is concerned that state results are creeping up faster than DCSD’s. She worries that class sizes in DCSD elementary schools may be taking a toll on students’ education. “I think we need to have a hard look at to whether those larger class sizes are impacting our test scores in terms of reading,” she said. “When you see this kind of dip in reading scores, it’s something that needs to be watched, especially in comparison to the surrounding school districts to see if there’s something that’s causing that to happen.”

The percentage of Douglas County third-graders reading at or above their grade level dropped by about 2.5 percentage points in one year, according to preliminary results from a statewide test. In the Douglas County School District, 79 percent of the 5,000-plus third-graders who were tested scored proficient or advanced on Transitional Colorado Assessment Program tests for 2014. DCSD isn’t alone in seeing a decrease.

Parents, students rally for Rock Ridge teachers Protest centers on district-level review of staff ’s annual evaluations By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com In a scene reminiscent of rallies staged last year at two Highlands Ranch elementary schools, parents and students protested in their teachers’ defense May 16 at Castle Rock’s Rock Ridge Elementary School. They protested the Douglas County School District’s plans to review teachers’ evaluations. District officials met with teachers inside the school, with the crowd outside the front doors. Parent and student chants of “We love our teachers” could be heard blocks away from the school during a gathering at the end of the school day. Parents waiting in line to pick up their students honked to indicate support, as protesters waved signs reading, “Every time you demoralize a teacher, you hurt a child” and “Respect our teachers.” In-school evaluators rated all the teachers “effective” or “highly effective,” one Rock Ridge teacher said. Because the high rat-

The ratings are tied to teacher pay increases. DCSD said the second review isn’t designed to target any school, but to ensure fairness for staff districtwide. “We are committed to what is best for our students, and we are committed to supporting our

The protest held at the end of the school day May 16 was triggered by a district-level review of Rock Ridge teachers’ evaluations. In-school evaluations led by Sorg ranked the staff “effec-

teachers and leaders on this path,” assistant superintendent of elementary schools Ted Knight wrote in a message addressed to the Rock Ridge community. “This is a criterion-referenced system. There is no quota. The only requirement is a consistent level of performance that meets the targets in the rubric to earn that rating.” “As part of our standard process, we looked closely at the (Rock Ridge) evaluations, supporting evidence and ratings, and there was

sufficient evidence to support a Level 2 review,” he wrote later in the letter. The Level 2 process includes a review from a panel of districtwide evaluators. “Some ratings may improve, some may stay the same, and some may decline,” Knight wrote. “We are working to complete this Level 2 process as quickly and thoroughly as possible so teachers can be notified of their final ratings soon.” It’s the second year of

Teachers’ ratings are tied to pay increases. Knight said DCSD’s focus is on the safety and education of its children. “We strive to ensure that each student has a quality teacher in every classroom and a responsible administrator leading the building,” he wrote. “We will be doing our best to ensure a stable learning environment through the final weeks of the school

year. “We will continue to communicate with you regarding next steps,” Knight concluded. “Please know that we will do what we can do to support you and your students through this difficult situation.” Knight included his district email address, and urged parents to write with any additional concerns.

DCSD’s new evaluation system. Last May, similar protests were held at Highlands Ranch’s Trailblazer and Saddle Ranch elementary schools when those teachers also received overall high ratings. The Douglas County teachers’ union recently asked the state to review DCSD’s evaluation system, claiming it is unreliable and triggering an exodus of teachers. “I’ve seen more than one teacher leaving the building today in tears,” said parent and protester Mike Carver, who believes district reluctance to give so many raises prompted the re-evaluations. “If they’re all being rated highly effective, that’s what they deserve. We’re here just to support the teachers and tell them to keep their heads up. If the district’s

not going to support them financially, hopefully we can support them in other ways.” Jackie Geary, a 15-year Rock Ridge teacher, said she loves her job but is “very disappointed” in the district. She believes the staff earned its high ratings. “Last year, our entire building was rated partially effective, and it didn’t raise any flags,” she said. “This year raised flags.” Geary said teachers were confused by the system during its launch year. “But we worked very hard this year to meet the standards, and our evaluators rewarded us. Now, they’re going to have independent principals review our work, just by looking at paper. And we aren’t getting our contracts until (we) have been re-evaluated.”

Mom writes book about giving up child Child displayed trauma from abandonment By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com Carrie O’Toole was faced with a decision no parent ever wants to make: giving up an adopted child. Attachment disorder has never been a well-known phenomenon, but the all-too-real consequences are getting a lot more attention these days. Children put up for adoption often feel abandoned, and the lingering trauma can wreak havoc on families bent on providing a forever home, said O’Toole, who grew up in Littleton and now lives in Parker. O’Toole “knew enough to be concerned” about attachment disorder as she researched adoption, and although her first adopted son display some symptoms, therapy seemed to do the trick. It was the family’s second adoption, in 2000, that proved more difficult. “Sam,” as O’Toole calls him in her new book, “Relinquished: When Love Means Letting Go,” immediately showed signs of attachment disorder when he was adopted at age 3. He lashed out not through violent outbursts, but rather systematic mental manipulation that eventually led O’Toole to believe she was losing her sanity. Rejecting any attempts at love

and affection from his adopted mom, Sam would act out in a variety of ways: taking and hiding an item just laid on a counter, and then denying it; staring at O’Toole instead of watching a movie at the theater; getting messy on purpose before a formal affair; sneaking into his sister’s room at night to play with her hair. Sam’s emotional and psychological issues took their toll. “Attachment stems from a place of feeling like you’re not valued, and they’re trying to control everything around them because they don’t trust anybody,” O’Toole said. Sam would put on a different face in public, cheerily greeting shoppers at the grocery store and charming neighbors and family friends. It was at home, often when the two were alone, that attachment disorder would manifest itself. Few outsiders saw what was going on, even O’Toole’s husband, who would sit mom and son down at the end of the day to work out their problems. “He gets it now, but he couldn’t see it. He was really trying to work on this relationship and what he didn’t realize is that he was being played,” she said. “It’s really hard to hold a family together like that.” At that time, there was little information on the Internet about the disorder and no forums where O’Toole could connect with other parents who were experiencing the same issues. O’Toole sought therapy for herself and would cry herself to sleep every night, all the while feeling hopeless and power-

less to the whims of a 5-year-old. “It was me feeling crazy all by myself,” she said. “You start to question your memory, your judgment, your intuition. I didn’t realize how deep it could go and how drastic it could become.” Meanwhile, Sam would “buffalo his way” through therapists and teachers, convincing them that mom was to blame. Her selfesteem and sanity became frayed after seven years of constant struggle. O’Toole soon felt that Sam’s behavior would lead to the demise of her marriage, or even her own demise. She looked at every possibility to fix the situation — camps, inpatient treatment, medications — but nothing dealt with the core problem, just the symptoms. O’Toole tried to find her own solace, too. “I was on anti-anxiety meds, antidepressants and sleep meds because I had pretty much quit sleeping,” she said. “I felt panicked all the time.” Her other two children were withdrawing and no longer invited friends over. Relief finally came when Sam began hanging out with another family from church. His visits became more frequent. At one point, the mother of the family said God was telling her that the family was going to adopt and that it would be a local boy. Then came a conversation O’Toole never thought she would have: the subject of relinquishing was broached. Sam and his new “brother” hatched their own plan to get Sam into the family. During a particularly rough weekend,

Parker resident Carrie O’Toole, author of a book called “Relinquished: When Love Means Letting Go,” is sharing the struggles related to her family’s adoption of a child with attachment disorder. Photo by Chris Michlewicz O’Toole asked if Sam could stay with them another night. The mother’s response was “he can stay for the rest of his life.” Sam was the oldest child, and had more control in the family. O’Toole was hit with a bizarre mix of emotions — relief, terror, guilt — but she was able to get her family back. It was an ending she never envisioned and she was judged, harshly by some people,

for the decision. “The whole thing with adoption is you talk about how you’re going to be their forever family, and we were going to be that forever family,” she said. The book, available on Amazon and at www.carrieotoole. com, explores the subject in great depth and is meant to help others who are having similar problems.

Woody Paige writes book on 2013 Broncos ‘The Super Broncos: From Elway to Tebow to Manning’ details the team’s Super Bowl run By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdiando@colorado communitymedia.com The Denver Post’s Woody Paige and Mike Klis spent 2013 chronicling the Denver Broncos season, the players involved and the Broncos’ history and future. “The Super Broncos: From Elway to Tebow to Manning,” is the “definitive account of the 2013 season when the Broncos were the wildest west offensive show in NFL history,” writes

Jim Nantz, the NFL sportscaster, in the book’s foreword. Paige, an ESPN regular, and Klis, a long-time Denver sportswriter, celebrate the personal records and team victories, but don’t pull punches about the defeats — particularly the disastrous Super Bowl against the Seattle Seahawks. “The Super Broncos” is filled with anecdotes about three of the most celebrated quarterbacks in the history of the franchise — John Elway, Tim Tebow and Peyton Manning. “Watching Peyton and the Broncos light up the NFL with an historic season, yet seeing it end in disappointment and heartache in New York, reminded me of how far the Broncos have come. And I’ve been with them through most of it,” Paige said in a news release.

The book’s chapters take fans through the Broncos’ colorful history: the team’s birth in the AFL; the “Orange Crush” and the infamous revolt against coach John Ralston; the team’s first Super Bowl appearance; the rise to one of the NFL’s elite franchises with John Elway and Coach Dan Reeves; Tebowmania; Peyton Manning and his rivalry with Tom Brady; and a game-by-game account of the historic 2013 Broncos season which saw Manning throwing a record 55 touchdowns, and even saw the Broncos set the record for the longest field goal in NFL history. The book also documents the final moments of the team’s Super Bowl defeat: “Mike, sorry man.” That’s what Mike Klis writes that Peyton Manning said to him after the loss.

Some participants in the NAMI Walk on May 17 at Centennial Center Park brought the little ones along for a stroll.

As May 17 was also Armed Forces Day, members of the military were recognized for their service prior to the start of the walk.

Walking with a purpose About 1,000 people walked for a cause at Centennial Center Park on May 17. The 2014 Colorado NAMI Walk raised more than $150,000 to help raise awareness and fight stigma about mental illness. The National Alliance on Mental Illness holds similar events throughout the country. The purpose of the walk is to show “you are not alone in dealing with mental illness,” said NAMI Colorado executive director Scott Glaser. The walking course of roughly a mile was traversed by men, women, children and dogs, and some opted to go around more than once on the sunny, 70-degree morning.

Many participants in the NAMI Walk brought their dogs along for a little exercise.

Volunteer group wants to buy land as birthday gift By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com Finding the perfect gift for a dear friend who’s turning 50 can prove difficult, but that’s not the case for one group. The kind-hearted caretakers known as the Friends of Castlewood Canyon State Park knew just how to mark the milestone: expansion. The volunteer group has its eye on a 15-acre parcel of land adjacent to the park upon which sits the Kleinert homestead, a ranch built in 1887 along the banks of the lake that burst through the canyon’s dam nearly five decades later. The Friends of Castlewood Canyon have committed to raising $25,000 toward the purchase and are busy organizing a number of events to raise money for the “birthday gift,” said Ron Claussen, president of the group. The events include a 10K trail run in September and a “yoga in the park” series that starts in June. The Friends raised $6,000 in the first month of the fundraising campaign. It needs another $19,000 for the Kleinert property. While Castlewood Canyon officially became a state park in 1964, its history began three years earlier when a man purported to be the grandson of “The

Unsinkable” Molly Brown donated 87 acres to the state. From there, the park has grown piece by piece to just over 2,200 acres through donations and discounted acquisitions. The park is located south of Franktown on State Highway 83 in Douglas County. Claussen enthusiastically talks about the unique topography, varied flora and story-telling geological formations that define Castlewood Canyon, sprinkling in the occasional legend (it is said that bigfoot has been spotted in those parts). He readily admits that historical gaps are often filled with educated conjecture by the 50-plus volunteers who help out at the park. For Claussen and the other helpers, there is a magnetic attraction to Castlewood Canyon. He began his stint at the park in 2001 as an interpreter for Great Outdoors Colorado, and even moved to Douglas County to be closer to the canyon. After retiring in 2011, he couldn’t stay away.

was being paid,” he said. “Retirement’s not working out for me at all.” As incredible as it might seem, there are people who live in nearby communities who have never heard of Castlewood Canyon, let alone visited. The volunteers are trying to change that, and the fundraising activities are expected to help boost its public profile. Those who contribute are invited to sign a massive birthday card at the visitor center and track the fundraising progress on a gauge in the form of a candle on top of a cupcake, said Liz Bade, volunteer naturalist and vice president of the Friends. Aside from the $25,000 for the Kleinert property, which will provide storage and better access for maintenance crews on the west end, the Friends are hoping to raise another $25,000 this year for park programs and improvements to the visitor center. That’s $1,000 for every year the park has been in existence. A long-term goal is focused on building an environmental education center, but that is several years out, Claussen said. To donate, send a check to P.O. Box 403, Franktown, CO, 80116. Find more information on the Friends of Castlewood Canyon State Park at www.castlewoodfriends.org.

Show rounds up Western bronze statuettes By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com “The Western bronze statuette was eagerly collected by the urban populace at the turn of the 20th century,” said Thomas Smith, director of the Petrie Institute of American Art at the Denver Art Museum, as he introduced “The American West in Bronze, 1850-1925,” which opened May 11 and runs until Aug. 31. Smith is co-curator of the first in-depth survey of this popular genre of American art. Thayer Tolles of the Metropolitan Museum of Art was the other curator, and the two have written a companion catalog for the show, which contains 72 bronze sculptures by 28 artists, borrowed from across the U.S. Some of these works were models for larger pieces made for public art: “Indians

on the mantel and in the park,” as another catalog essay noted. The sculptures are carefully displayed and lighted in the Gallagher Family Gallery on the first floor of the museum, so it’s easy to see the touch of the sculptor’s hand in textures and details. Murals on the walls show how some works were translated into monumental public art. The bronzes are grouped by subject: Indians, cowboys, cavalry, pioneers and prospectors, as well as animals of the plains and mountains. Each piece tells a story of the early West, although some of these artists started portraying Western characters from studios in New York before they visited the scene. Some found models for wildlife at the Bronx Zoo and other zoos. By 1850, there were foundries opened in the U.S. where bronzes could be cast. Prior to that time, molds were sent to Europe for

casting, which added time and expense to the process. A large work at the entrance is by Alexander Phimister Proctor, who studied in Paris, but created images of the American West. Pieces were made by sand casting until 1900, Smith said, when the lost wax method became popular. A video of the lost wax process is shown. It was shot at the Metropolitan Museum and shows the process for making a mold of an equestrian figure of Theodore Roosevelt and readying it to go to the foundry in sections. Two editions of Frederic Remington’s “Bronco Buster” show how he added motion to figures, Smith said, also pointing out his “Cheyenne.” “Bronco Buster” was repeated in 150 editions.

Play is painful, mesmerizing ‘A Lie of the Mind’ presents dark view of family life By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com In “A Lie of the Mind,” playwright Sam Shepard’s two families interact with each other and members of the other family in a style that makes one wince every few minutes. It’s a hard one to watch, but director Verl Hite has recruited a cast that’s up to staging Shepard’s bizarre tale — one of several he has written colored by his take on American families. The time is 1974. Place: Montana, California and somewhere in between. Country music plays in the background. When “A Lie of the Mind” first ran off-Broadway in 1985, directed by Shepard, it ran four hours, but the version presented by the Bug Theatre, like a 2010 Broadway revival, is under three

and will keep an audience absolutely engaged, however uncomfortable viewers may be. The stage represents two households in the West, with skewed floors suggesting the off-balance status of all involved. As lights go up on Scene 1, Jake (Chris Bleu) is at a pay phone, frantically trying to call his brother Frankie (Paul Jaquith) for help. He has beaten his wife Beth so severely that he thinks she is dead. “I didn’t see it coming” says this psychopathic man, who also talks about how he’ll die without her. Love and its varied manifestations is a theme that threads through this disturbing script repeatedly. Frankie determines to find out what happened and heads for Beth’s home

in Montana, where he is shot in the leg by Beth’s father Baylor, who lives only to hunt deer. Dell Domnik and Darcy Kennedy play Beth’s out-of-touch parents. Brain-damaged Beth (a strong Haley Johnson) is struggling in a hospital, while her brother Mike (Sam Gilstrap) tries to help her realize she’s alive and needing assistance. The script calls for her to be barely intelligible, yet we get the drift of what she is trying to communicate and want to help her too. On the other side of the stage, Jake goes home to his family for help and his tough- talking mother (Libby Rife) and angry sister (Mary Kay Riley) are isolated in their own worlds. Each character in this wonderfully crafted play is

tries to romance the confused Frankie. Disturbed Jake appears in Montana seeking Beth, wearing an American flag that belonged to his dead father — yet another tale within this parade of tragedies. Baylor becomes obsessed with proper care of that flag, shutting off all that’s happening around them. As the play draws to an end, with nothing resolved and chaos around him, he insists that his wife

help him fold that flag in proper military fashion — Shepard’s wry comment on the missing pieces floating everywhere. Director Hite observes: “This is a story of life in which Shepard expresses his ideas on the subject of people’s relationships with themselves and others.” This cast depicts that story skillfully. Not a pretty picture, but a mesmerizing evening of theater.

Nobody could get a jump on Connor Turnage and Ben Morgan at the Colorado State Track and Field championships this past weekend at Lakewood’s Jeffco Stadium. Both Highlands Ranch athletes won state titles, Turnage in the triple jump and Morgan in the long jump. Turnage, a senior bound for the University of Nebraska, jumped 48 feet, 9.75 inches to capture his third consecutive triple jump crown and cap what he termed a frustrating season on a positive note. “It was the second best jump of my life,” Turnage said. “I can’t complain too much. As frustrating as this season was, I was pretty happy. I just didn’t jump well this season. Two or three weeks ago I started jumping a little better.” Turnage claims that coaching is the main reason why he and Morgan won state titles. “It takes a lot of coaching,” he admitted. “We both work with the coaches. Definitely the biggest thing is the coaching.” Morgan, a junior, took first in his main event with a leap of 22 feet, 8.5 inches. “I came out and tried as hard as I could,” Morgan said. “I did my best. My PR is 23-8. I didn’t do as well as I had hoped, but everybody was kind of having an off day. I was real confident. I was just thinking about getting a PR and jumping as far as I could. “It was definitely a good season, especially from the fact I went from a PR of 22-6 to 23-8, and that put me in the top 50 in the nation. So I was coming into the state meet thinking there’s definitely a possibility of winning but everybody was really good.” Valor Christian had two individual Class 4A champions. Senior Zac Petrie ran the 400 meters in a time of 1 minute, 52.66 seconds to win the crown, while Eagles’ junior Haley Showalter captured the girls 4A discus championship with a throw of 149 feet,

I wasn’t happy but I’m happy with the win. I was looking forward to this meet all year. My best just wasn’t there.” Valor Christian’s boys finished second to Palmer Ridge in the Class 4A team standings. Other south metro champions include Douglas County’s Trey Smith, who won the Class 5A 100 meter dash. Cherry Creek’s boys 4x400 relay team was a champion and the Bruins’ junior Jordyn Colter captured the girls Class 5A 800 and 1600 runs for the second consecutive season. Creek, the defending Class 5A champions, finished third in the team standings. Chaparral took first in the boys 4x800 Class 5A relay, while Lutheran captured the boys Class 2A team title and the Lions’ Chris Youngs was the 100 and 200 meter champ.

rboldrey@colorado communitymedia.com It only took one minute and 11 seconds for Columbine to slip one past “The Wall” known as Mountain Vista senior goaltender Christine Ottinger. Columbine sophomore Kelcey Cavarra hammered home a direct kick from the left side across a diving Ottinger and into the right corner of the net, staking the Rebels to a lead they would not relinquish in Class 5A state semifinal action. The No. 8-seeded Rebels (16-3) added a second goal off the foot of freshman Amanda Porter 17 minutes later, won the majority of balls throughout the day and kept No. 4 Mountain Vista (15-2-2) from any serious scoring chances as they advanced to the title match with a 2-0 victory May 17 at Englewood High School. The goals were the first two given up by Ottinger in four playoff games this year. “(It gave Columbine) huge confidence,” said Vista coach Theresa Echtermeyer of the early goal. “They felt like they could keep coming at us, which they did. They had great intensity in the first half, so credit to them.”

The Golden Eagles lost for just the second time all year, with both losses coming without the services of star sophomore Mallory Pugh, who was training in California with the Team USA U-20 squad. Pugh would’ve been back for the finals had Vista made it, but Echtermeyer wouldn’t put the loss on her not being there for the semis. “We are a young team, and I think our youth caught up to us a little bit,” she said. “Some days, the other team, balls bounce their way a little bit more. They had a better day than we did, that’s soccer. It happens. “I thought we played better in the second half, we just never got into our rhythm and that was just a nervous thing, I think. We’ll use this as something to build on for next year.” The only other loss for the Golden Eagles this season was to No. 3 Pine Creek (15-3-1). Creek lost 3-2 to No. 10 Ralston Valley (16-3) in the second semifinal. “Unfortunate things happen, we probably didn’t come out as strong as we should have but we left it all out there for sure,” said Vista defender Sarah Newcomer, one of just six seniors on the Golden Eagles 23-player roster. Vista advanced to the semis with a 2-0 quarterfinal win over No. 5 Fairview (15-3) May 13 at Shea Stadium. Kelsey Luke and Lindsey Stroud scored for the Golden Eagles in the victory.

Mountain Vista still swinging into final weekend Golden Eagles take two of three, keep title in sights on diamond By Craig Harper

Special to Colorado Community Media Sure, it hurt, Will Dixon admitted. But like Meat Loaf, Mountain Vista couldn’t be sad following a 17-7 loss to Rocky Mountain in the final game of the opening weekend of the 5A baseball championship series. After all, Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad, especially when the Golden Eagles can turn to Nick Leonard and Dixon, if needed, in the final weekend. “We’re going to come back strong,’’ Dixon said of the doubleelimination tournament that has been reduced in half. “We’ve got our ace (Leonard) going Friday against Regis, so we’re going to come back strong from this. We’re a great team. We’ve just got to come back and play our game.’” Leonard, considered by many the state’s top pitcher, and Dixon threw four-hit gems on May 16 as fifth-seeded Mountain Vista won its first two games. Dixon beat Chaparral 4-1 and Leon-

ard silenced No. 1 seed Chatfield 7-1. But they couldn’t pitch in the matchup of unbeatens the following day at All-City Stadium in Denver, and Lobos prevailed in a battle of No. 3 starters and beyond. “There’s a lot of baseball left,’’ said Golden Eagles coach Ron Quintana. “The good thing about playing next week is pretty much everybody has their 1 and 2 again. You go into this third game knowing that it’s going to be a dogfight and a lot of runs are going to be scored. And you just hope it’s going to be in your favor.’’ It wasn’t this time for the Golden Eagles. Rocky Mountain (19-5), seeking its first title since winning four straight from 2007-10 and a repeat trip to the championship game, pounded five Mountain Vista pitchers for 17 hits, including two home runs, and an eightrun top of the seventh inning. But the Golden Eagles (20-4), managed 15 hits off two Lobo pitchers. They tied the game at 5-5 on Jack Strunc’s RBI double in the fourth and had runners at first and second with two outs and a red-hot Dixon (6-of-8 and five RBIs in the series) coming to bat. But the Lobos intentionally walked Dixon and Michael Dunnbecke struck out to end the in-

Chaparral’s Andrew Thomas makes the slide back to first base while knocking the ball loose from Mountain Vista’s Tyler Tullis. Mountain Vista went on to win by shutting out Chaparral 4-0 in May 16 in Class 5A playoff action at All-City Field. Photo by Paul DiSalvo ning. The Lobos, who had been held scoreless in the third and fourth, scored twice in the fifth and sixth before the outburst in the eighth. In the May 16 games, Dixon

struck out seven in 6.2 innings and Leonard fanned 12 in a complete game. Quintana gambled by saving Leonard for Chatfield and said of the strategy, “Did I lose some

sleep? Yes. Right now we look like we are geniuses.’’ Dixon and Strunc had two hits apiece against both Chaparral and Chatfield, Strunc collecting three RBI against the Chargers.

Class 5A baseball’s final four all set Staff report As the only unbeaten team thus far in the Class 5A double elimination tournament, Rocky Mountain is assured of still being in state title contention May 24 even if they stumble May 23 against Cherry Creek. Creek will face the Lobos in a noon

elimination game for the Bruins May 23 at All-City Stadium. Mountain Vista and Regis Jesuit, meanwhile, will clash in another elimination contest at 2:30 p.m. May 23 at All-City. The Bruins left 12 runners on base in an 8-4 loss to Chatfield May 16 but rebounded with a 6-3 victory over Chaparral and a 7-6

conquest of ThunderRidge May 17 to advance to the Final Four. Grant Farrell went 7-for-11 in the three games to pace Creek. Defending Class 5A state champions ThunderRidge couldn’t revive the playoff magic it displayed last year despite a late flurry in its first outing. The Grizzlies scored eight runs in the top of the eighth

inning May 16 in a 10-2 win over Fairview but then lost 5-4 to Rocky Mountain later in the day and were eliminated, 7-6, by Creek on May 17. In the Class 4A double elimination tournament, Valor Christian was ousted after a 4-2 setback to Wheat Ridge and a 9-8 loss to Longmont May 17.

Nathan Mueller of Highlands Ranch turned in one of the most superb individual performances of this year’s Class 5A state swimming and diving championships, winning titles in both the 200 and 500 Freestyle events. “This feels pretty good,” Mueller said May 17 after touching up in 1 minute, 38.26 seconds to beat out Austin Phillips of Regis (1:39.25) in the 200 Free. “I had a lot of confidence and knew I was prepared and that it was going to be fun. It’s sweet to get the win.” Mueller then edged another Regis swimmer, Christopher Dawson to take the 500 Free. The Highlands Ranch swimmer touched up in 4:27.41, besting Dawson by 1.46 seconds. “I was really excited for this one,” he said of the 500 Free. “It was a good way to finish my high school career. Now, I hope I can be good in college at Wisconsin.” Hennessey Stuart of Regis Jesuit High School was selected as the most valuable swimmer iof the two-day meet at the Veteran’s Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton. While helping to lead Regis to its fourth-consecutive state title, Stuart won the 200 Individual Medley and 100 Backstroke and swam legs on the Raiders first-place 200 medley and 400 relay quartets. The 400-relay team touched up in state record accomplishment. Stuart overwhelmed the field in the 100 Backstroke, finishing in a time of 47.24 seconds for the victory, nearly four seconds ahead of runner-up Thomas Konde (51.10) of Cherokee Trail. The 200 IM was much closer as he won in a time of 1 minute, 47.77 seconds, beating out Cherry Creek’s Jake Markham (1:48.58). “I was actually very nervous going into the race,” Stuart said after the 200 IM. “The state record in the 400 relay is really something and it was sweet to win in all four of my events today. (Winning the) MVP is exciting and awesome. And this was a great day for my brother, Quinlan, and for our team. It was awesome watching my brother and to be a part of our fourth straight title here at Regis.” Quinlan Stuart won the 100 Breaststroke in a time of 57.2 seconds, just nipping Cherokee Trail’s Joshua Bedford (57.53) and his Regis teammate, Theodore Koerner (57.68). Regis won the opening 200 Medley Relay in 1:31.71 as Chris Morales and Will Pieseski joined the Stuarts in the win. Boulder was second with a time of 1:34.34. Mitchell Bruckman, Christopher Dawson and Austin Phillips swam with Hennessey Stuart on the 400 Freestyle Relay, winning in a time of 3:00.84. The Raiders defeated Cherry Creek (3:04.14) and Fairview (3:07.69) in the event. It was the Raiders depth that led coach Nick Frasersmith’s squad to an overwhelming 410 points to sink runner-up Cherry Creek (190) and third-place Fairview (179). It also was the 20th overall title for the Raiders. “To begin with, this was just a great team effort,” Frasersmith said. “The boys put their hearts into the season and we had a good run. Day by day our practices were good and the boys found their goal today. They just all pulled together. It was a great season. And, that certainly goes for Hennessey. What a fine way to end the year.” Regis picked up its final individual title in diving behind the efforts of Kyle Goodwin, who won his third consecutive state championship by scoring 559.29 points. He easily outscored runner-up Trent Kindvall of Standley Lake (487.65). “It felt good to get this win and each year I’ve gotten better,” Goodwin said. “It feels much more rewarding this year. The key was confidence from my training and going into the day with high hopes once again.”
