POSTAL ADDRESS

Women from Castle Rock’s Faith Lutheran Church donated more than 75 handmade quilts to the Douglas/Elbert Task Force Dec. 9 as part of Colorado Gives day. The women met every Thursday for a year to design and sew the quilts they hope will keep the less fortunate warm this holiday season. The quilts used donated fabric. The group also made small, lap-sized quilts for Alzheimer’s patients that are adorned with different textural elements for patients to hold.

Justices could take up to nine months for decision By Jane Reuter

jreuter @coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado Supreme Court justices asked pointed questions about the potential impact of voucher programs on public schools, among other issues, during the long-awaited oral arguments surrounding the Douglas County School District’s choice scholarship program. The court could take up to nine months to issue its decision, though it has ruled in as little as a month on some cases. The ruling will apply to all other courts in the state. The chambers were packed Dec. 10, with requests for seats exceeding the room’s 195-seat capacity. The demand prompted the court to livestream the proceedings. Among those with a front-row seat for the arguments were John

session, which included 30 minutes of argument each from attorneys for DCSD and plaintiffs Taxpayers for Public Education. The parent-led Taxpayers for Public Education initially filed the suit in 2011 against DCSD and the Colorado Department of Education after the district

implemented its pilot program designed for 500 students. It allowed the students’ parents to use state-provided per-pupil revenue toward tuition at private, mostly religiously affiliated schools. A Denver judge ruled the Voucher continues on Page 19

Undocumented woman unbowed, unbroken When she was 11 and caring for four younger brothers and sisters in a rural Mexican town, Rocío Méndez looked into her heart for strength. When she was 15, hiding in a dumpster from immigration officers in Arizona after walking four days through desert and mountains, she looked into her heart for courage. Last week, when she completed the last exam needed for her college degree, Rocío, now 22, again looked into her heart. This time, she found happiness. “Education has always been my heart,” she said. “Education has always been my motivation. It has been my life.” The passion to learn has been the fire that propelled her through unimaginable adversity — drug-war violence, family tragedy, poverty and hunger — and that lifted her when hope threatened to slip from her grasp. “Her story is nothing less than a miracle,” her high school teacher Lisa Wille-Racine said. “She was relentless. … She is relentless. She didn’t ever lose sight of her dream.” But the dream isn’t finished: It won’t be until she can live and work here legally.

Hope amid tumult

That goal could become reality under a provision in President Obama’s proposed executive order, which includes revisions to the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. DACA, as it is known, excluded Rocío because she arrived here in 2008, one year too late. The Nov. 20 proposal, however, expands the cutoff to 2010 and gives those children a three-year reprieve from deportation and the opportunity to apply for the needed permit to work. Republicans have threatened to block the president’s immigration action when Congress reconvenes in January. But amid the political tumult, Rocío — who has lobbied with fellow students for the stillunpassed DREAM Act in Washington, D.C. — and Wille-Racine stay optimistic. Regardless of how one feels about Obama, Wille-Racine said, “at least he sees the richness and the powerfulness and the extraordinariness of kids who don’t call their country home any more. These are

THE PRESIDENT’S ACTION On Nov. 20, President Obama announced an executive immigration order to create a program that would allow 4 million to 5 million immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally to apply to work legally — as long as they have no criminal record, have lived in the U.S. for at least five years and have children. They could also qualify to become eligible for Medicare and Social Security.

kids with no country who see the only way to rise above poverty is through education.” Petite with black hair just beyond her shoulders and a wide but rare smile, Rocío is one of 1.4 million undocumented students in the U.S. brought here by parents who entered illegally. Many, as in Rocío’s case, were searching for a better life. Each year, according to studies, about 65,000 undocumented students graduate from American high schools. But, impeded by financial hardship and lack of legal documentation, fewer than 10,000 enroll in college. When Rocío graduated — with honors — from a Castle Rock high school in 2010, Colorado did not offer in-state tuition to undocumented students. So, with WilleRacine’s help, she enrolled in New Mexico Highlands University in Las Vegas, N.M., where she met criteria for in-state tuition offered also to students in her situation. Today, 18 states allow in-state tuition rates for undocumented students. Fourteen do so through legislation. The first were California and Texas in 2001; New Mexico did so in 2005; Colorado joined the group in 2013. Rocío, who has always wanted to be a teacher, remembers sitting in the office at Highlands’ School of Education: “The adviser … told me you can get an education, you can study to be a teacher. At the end, you’re not going to be eligible to teach because you have no legal status.” The words shattered Rocío. She turned to Wille-Racine, tears in her eyes. “There is nothing for me here,” she said. Wille-Racine reassured her there would be something. “Politics are changing quickly,” she said. “In four years, we can decide if it was worth it or not.”

The executive action also revises the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals by allowing children brought here illegally before 2010 to stay — previously, the year was 2007. It also removes the 30-year-old upper age limit and extends the two-year relief from deportation to three years. Under DACA, anyone with deferred action can apply for a work permit. To qualify, children must: • Have come to the U.S. before their 16th birthday • Have continuously lived in the U.S. since Jan. 1, 2010 • Be in school, have graduated from high school, obtained a GED, or have been honorably discharged from the armed forces • Have not been convicted of a felony or serious misdemeanors The DREAM Act, which Congress still has not passed, is bipartisan legislation that would permit certain immigrant students who have grown up in the U.S. to apply for temporary legal status, and eventually permanent legal status, and become eligible for U.S. citizenship if they attend college or serve in the military. It would apply to most students who came here at age 15 or younger, have lived here continuously at least five years before the bill’s enactment and have no criminal record.

Accident changed all

To fully understand the price of that leap of faith, you have to go back to the beginning of Rocío’s story. The family lived in a town of fewer than 500 people about two hours southeast of Mexico City. Her father, who finished two years of elementary school, grew flowers to sell in the city. Her mother, who completed sixth grade, cared for the children. Tragedy struck when Rocío’s 18-monthold sister was critically injured in a car accident. To provide the best medical care, her father borrowed money and sold everything he could, including the land on which he grew his flowers, to send her to a private hospital. Her sister eventually recovered, but her father could no longer earn enough to support the family. “You have to have money to pay — if you don’t, that person is going to die,” Rocío said. After two months “we didn’t have any money. In Mexico, we couldn’t survive anymore.” Her parents crossed the border in 2001 and ended up in Castle Rock, where he

worked construction and landscaping and she cleaned hotels and businesses. The children stayed behind with grandparents, but Rocío — beginning at age 11 — essentially became the mom. She bought groceries, cooked, got them ready for school, talked to teachers about their progress. Most importantly, she said, she kept them safe, including from drug dealers who wanted payments for security. All the while, she excelled in her studies, winning top prizes in her classes. “I was so anxious to learn, to know stuff,” she said. “I was happy because going to school was going to make a difference.” But when it came time for high school, the family didn’t have the money to pay for the better private education in Mexico. And the culture discouraged girls from continuing school. That included her family. A teacher recommended Rocío study in the United States. It’s better over there, he said.

Neighboring districts hiring DougCo teachers Numbers show more DCSD teachers hired in Cherry Creek, Littleton than from other districts By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A hiring report from the Cherry Creek School District released this fall shows 17 percent of its 2014-15 new licensed staff came from the Douglas County School District — far more than from any other district. Most of those 90 staff members are teachers. In Littleton Public Schools, 22 percent of the new teachers — 17 of 78 hired — are from Douglas County. For LPS, that number also represents the most hired from any single district. It is the first year Cherry Creek has tracked such information. “We don’t have earlier data, so it’s hard to say” if the DCSD figure is higher than normal, said Cherry Creek schools spokeswoman Tustin Amole. But she added Douglas County represented “by far the most of those that came from a single district.” Cherry Creek hired 526 licensed staff members for the 2014-15 academic year; 172 were transfers. Of those, 90 came from Douglas County. The licensed staff includes teachers, nurses and mental health professionals. Cherry’s Creek’s teacher turnover for 2014 was 11.7 percent, Littleton’s was 9.5 percent, and Douglas County’s 17.3 percent, according to the Colorado Department of Education. The state average was 16.7 percent. In Cherry Creek, the average starting teacher salary is $47,950. Douglas County School District uses salary bands that base compensation on market demand coupled with teacher ratings. The average starting salary for all bands is $40,500. DCSD — which has seen a series of reform measures implemented in the past few years — acknowledges turnover, but disputes the state’s number. In-district transfers and promotions along with a different staff count date put their 2014 calculation at 13.1 percent. Additionally, most of the district’s best teachers remain, they note. “While there has been and will be migration between districts, we are very pleased to be retaining 94 percent of our `highly effective’ teachers and over 90 percent of our `effective’ teachers,’ ” DCSD chief human resources officer Brian Cesare wrote in an emailed statement. School board president Kevin Larsen said Cherry’s Creek’s numbers do not surprise him.

Graphic courtesy of the Cherry Creek School District “There could be a number of reasons for that,” she said. “It could be that people have moved and they want to be closer to where they live. There could be childcare that’s more available to them here. We don’t know why. “We have heard anecdotally for some time that we were getting teachers from Douglas County and some other school districts.” Former Saddle Ranch Elementary School teacher Maria Lauer joined the Cherry Creek district staff in 2013. A special education teacher, Lauer said the teacher evaluations introduced by DCSD in 2012 were the last straw among a series of items that prompted her to seek employment elsewhere. Lauer was among several teachers who left the Highlands Ranch school in 2013 after none of the teachers

“When you’re in close proximity to another district, you’re going to see some movement one way or the other,” he said. “We definitely know we’ve got a good number of new teachers that have come to us from Cherry Creek. It definitely goes both ways. I think we’d probably find similar numbers with any of our neighboring districts. “Any time there’s a lot of change, you’re going to have some of that. To me, the key is, where does it break down? We have better retention on the most-effective end. I’m happy with that.” DCSD does not presently have a detailed breakdown of where new staff members came from. Amole said she does not know the specific reason for the high percentage of Douglas County recruits to Cherry Creek.

Town considers coordinating with county on elections Would move regular town elections from April to November By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com After concerns were raised about procedural issues during Castle Rock’s August special election, the town agreed to explore ways to improve the way it conducts elections. After research by the town, two options, which involved relying on Douglas County to conduct elections for the town, were brought to council Dec.2. The first option would be to participate in coordinated elections conducted by the county for all regular town elections. This would require a charter amendment to change the date of Castle Rock’s regular elections to November of even numbered years. It would also require an approved transition plan for the terms of current councilmembers. A charter amendment could be placed on the November 2015 coordinated election ballot. “(In Colorado) 80 percent of the municipalities over 50,000 in population contract with their county or coun-

ties,” said Castle Rock Town Clerk Sally Misare. The second option would be to request Douglas County contract with the town to conduct its regular elections in April of even numbered years, or amend the charter to provide for regular elections in odd numbered years and request Douglas County to contract with Castle Rock to conduct these elections. The council voted 4-3 to further explore option one. Councilmembers Mark Heath, Chip Wilson and Renee Valentine were against the measure and raised concerns about changing the town’s election cycle and extending current term limits to accommodate a change. “It costs a little bit more, but I like the individuality of (April elections) for our town,” Heath said. Councilmember Gorge Teal also voiced concerns about moving town elections from their current date in April and wondered if local races would be able to cut through the noise of November elections in a battleground state. In option one, Castle Rock’s elections would be conducted under the state’s Title 1 election guideline, so the majority of the items discussed during the last election would be addressed, including a requirement to include a secrecy sleeve in the mail ballot packet sent to voters and a requirement for signature verification. Among issues raised during the August special elec-

tion, secrecy sleeves were not initially included with all ballots, but were made available by the town before the voting deadline. State statutes require all Title 1 elections to be conducted by mail ballot. This is the least expensive option for the town with the costs being shared among all participating entities. Castle Rock would not have to maintain its equipment or pay separate judges. This option would require a transition plan for existing councilmembers, which would likely extend current terms by several months. A special election on the required charter amendment could be held in November 2015 and could be coordinated with Douglas County. “Yes, it does extend some extra months to councilmembers’ terms periods, but again, I think this is a cost savings to the town,” Councilmember Jennifer Green said. More than 9,400 of the 32,000 ballots mailed to voters were returned during the August election — the most ever in a Castle Rock election. Castle Rock is a home-rule municipality, which means most of how the town is governed, including elections, is established in the town charter and the town election code, rather than the state’s municipal election code.

Defibrillators donated to sheriff’s office Leadership group, dairy come through for county By Mike DiFerdinando

SEMINARS

mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Leadership Douglas County and Royal Crest Dairy partnered to purchase three new automated external defibrillators for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. The group presented the new AEDs to Captain Bradlee Heyden of the DCSO Dec.11 at the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce, 420 Jerry St. “Every class comes up with a project, and our project was to raise money to put AEDs in more police cars in Douglas County,” said Diane Leavesley of Leadership Douglas County. Founded in 1999 by the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce, Leadership Douglas County helps emerging and recognized leaders expand their skills and enhance their knowledge of local and state issues, as well as leverage their individual passions to make positive changes in our community. AEDs are portable electronic devices that automatically diagnose the life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia in a patient. The machines treat such patients through defibrillation, the application of electrical therapy that stops the arrhythmia, allowing the heart to re-establish an effective rhythm. Prior to the donation, the sheriff’s office only had four such devices. “Because sheriff’s office deputies are out driving around all the time, they can beat the fire department to medical calls, especially in rural areas where they have volunteer fire departments, there can be a longer response time,” Heyden said. Each AED cost $2,300. That’s more than the kind you would find in a gym or school. “That’s because it’s a ruggedized unit for use by military, law enforcement and fire,” Heyden said. The ruggedized units are able to withstand the bouncing and jostling of off-road and rural conditions. Two of the devices were purchased with money raised by Leadership Douglas County and one was bought by Royal Crest Dairy.

Douglas County finalizes 2015 budget Increase in revenues expected for county due to new construction By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com A transfer of $49 million in unspent funds for roads from 2014 and the formation of a new wildfire mitigation team highlighted additions to the 2015 Douglas County budget, which was approved by the county commissioners Dec. 9. “The reason why we carry over or reappropriate these monies in the budget versus doing a supplemental budget is to give engineers access to these funds Jan. 1,” Douglas County Budget Manager Martha Marshall said. “If we use the supplemental budget process, then we would have to wait until March and it could hinder moving forward on some of the long-term projects.” There are no new taxes or fees for 2015, and the county expects to see an increase in revenue of 2.7 percent or $6.7 million from 2014. Total revenues come in at $250 million. The $331.2 million budget includes $167.3 million in operating costs. The new wildfire mitigation team will cost the county $415,500 to pay for a public awareness and education campaign as well as equipment such as a truck, chipper, personal protection equipment and salaries and benefits for four crew members, who will be part-timers used on an as-needed basis. The largest expenditures are expected to be: capital improvement and infrastructure, $64.9 million; public safety, $55.2 million; public works engineering and operations, $35.7 million; and health and human

services, $32.5 million. According to the Douglas County Assessor’s Office, property taxes on a $300,000 home are currently about $2,350 per year. The majority of revenue comes from property taxes (44 percent) and sales taxes (22 percent). The difference in revenues ($250 million in projected revenue and $49 million in unspent money from 2014, totaling $299 million), and expenditures ($331 million), about $32 million, will be offset by the use of county fund balances. Among projects earmarked for funding in 2015 are: • A $6.2 million public safety driving facility, land acquisition and construction off Moore Road, which is located west of Santa Fe Drive in the area of Louviers. The driving facility will primarily be used for police training, but will also be available for county public works training, Fire and other area law enforcement agencies and possibly by the school district for bus driver training. • The last two courtrooms, at $1.5 million, in the Justice Center in Castle Rock. • The $2.5 million US 85/C-470 Interchange reconstruction. County officials expect the county’s new business personal property tax exemption program, created to attract new businesses and retain existing ones, to produce a significant amount of revenue. The county collects approximately $9 million in business personal property tax each year. Under the new tax exemption, the first $100,000 of actual value will be exempted for a business in Douglas County. According to officials, the business personal property tax exemption is part of the county’s plan to attract new business to the region and foster a climate of economic growth.

GERARD HEALEY President and Publisher CHRIS ROTAR Editor MIKE DIFERDINANDO Community Editor VIC VELA State Desk and Legislative Editor RON MITCHELL Local Sales Manager

What a wonderful ride it has been I remember the “aha moment” about 25 years ago when I realized how blessed I was to have moved to one of the fastest-growing and most dynamic counties in the country. I was working at the local newspaper, enjoying the richness of my life at the time. Little did I realize how entrenched I would become in the fabric of the community, joining in coalitions of wonderful people who were active in making a difference in Castle Rock and in Douglas County. Before writing any further, I want to thank my community for giving me the honor to serve as your state representative. I’ve enjoyed the constant dialogue among those who have supported my views and those who have disagreed. It’s been an invigorating experience for me personally, and I treasure the experience. Through my time as president of the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce and as the Douglas County clerk and recorder, I was part of the county’s growing Republican Party, ultimately having the honor of representing the Castle Rock area as its state representative for six years. I chose not to run again in 2014. During those six whirlwind years, I was glad to be a part of creating a format for our Colorado universities and community colleges to standardize their coursework transfer system, as well as eliminating teacher tenure in K-12 education and requiring teacher evaluations based on student performance. We made our first steps toward student data privacy at the state level. We clamped down on the sale of designer drugs and added texting to minors as an offense in “grooming” young victims of sexual predators. We were finally successful in updating our ancient telecommunications laws, as well as eliminating the tax on downloadable software. One disappointment to me was the passage of the gun-control bills, which

I vigorously opposed both on the Judiciary Committee and on the floor of the House. So what does a person learn from being in the Legislature? Believe it or not, after all those years as an active Republican, I came to a new understanding of how deeply different the two parties are in the way they look at government, free markets and the relationship of an individual to their government. This impressed me pretty significantly during my first two years in the minority at the Capitol. I watched bill after bill being passed that carried the state further down the road of regulation and taxation, and I listened to the arguments in the House chambers and realized what a disconnect there is in how members of each party see the world. I often heard myself in my head say: “Can they really believe what they just said”? And they probably said the same about us. From this revelation about party differences, I also came to realize that people within a party agree on more issues than they disagree on. Pundits seem to enjoy focusing on intraparty differences so they can create some drama among party regulars, but on the basic votes affecting free market capitalism and the rights of individual citizens, same-party legislators vote together 99 percent of the time. The Capitol also educated me that applying ideology to policy is no easy lift. Personality and style matter. A legislator may be the right fit for their constituents ideologically,

but they’re never going to make great strides in changing policy if they don’t get the votes for their bills. When electing candidates, the public doesn’t pay attention enough to the personal skill sets of those they are supporting. They look for someone who is “right” on all the issues, but they don’t give their candidates the usual once-over that any employee gets when they’re hired: Do they get along with their co-workers? Some legislators are glad to say they are disliked, but I’m here to tell you they don’t get much accomplished. If you can’t get people to vote for your bills, you haven’t accomplished much for your constituents. One huge lesson from the Capitol was that Democrats understand incrementalism, and are patient in taking small steps to move forward with bigger government. Sometimes it feels like Republicans want the whole pie or nothing. My bill on student data privacy was a good example. We need even stronger protections, perhaps, but at least we now have some protections in Colorado law that were not in place previously. We’ve set the stage for future discussions. Let’s don’t let the perfect get in the way of the good — especially when we’re in a minority. I’m so honored to have been able to serve my community in several special — and very public — ways, and I encourage new residents to get involved in caring for the future of our neighborhoods. As for me, I’m looking forward to a new life of travel, gardening, and new directions as my husband Lisle and I retire. It’s been a great run in a beautiful county in a phenomenal state. Thanks so much for the honor. Carole Murray is the Republican state representative for House District 45, which includes Castle Rock and southern Douglas County. Her third and final term ends in January.

Set alarm, and set out on right path The early bird catches the worm … and some pretty incredible sunrises here in Colorado too, wouldn’t you agree? I mean is it just me or have the sunrises been even more spectacular lately? Many years ago I was listening to one of my motivational programs by Zig Ziglar. And during one of the segments Zig talked about the discipline of waking up early as a key element of success. As a matter of fact, I recently read an article on the topic of success that underscored that very concept. The consistent behavior amongst some of the world’s most successful people is to wake up early. And it’s not just about waking up early, it’s really about what we do with that extra time that we give ourselves. As I remembered Zig’s program and as I associated his message with some of the ideas shared in the above

mentioned article, here are some of the ways that successful people use their special early morning time: • Reading (mind) — committing dedicated time to reading something that will expand our knowledge base. It could be the Bible, a devotional book, an industry magazine, a business book, biography, or

even the newspaper. Staying current on local issues, national news, and global information helps keep us well-informed and in a better position to engage in meaningful conversations with others. Zig Ziglar used to start each day reading the Bible and the newspaper and would say, “This way I know what both sides are up to.” • Physical fitness (body) — too often we have the best of intentions to include some form of exercise into each day only to run out of minutes and hours or have other priorities trump our desire to work out. And as our busy-ness escalates, the excuse to dismiss or blow off or physical fitness becomes easier and easier. Now, many people are extremely disciplined and get their workout in at a regularly schedule time later in the day, and Norton continues on Page 9

It’s time for a holiday Year-end planning from the holidays saves on taxes Where did Christmas go? And when? I wonder if home-shopping channels had anything to do with it. They start advertising Christmas merchandise in September. And I begin to see Santa snowboarding on a Norelco in November. Christmas used to be a day, and then it was a few days. It was a few days of shopping and anticipation, and now it’s a season. I am not here to humbug it: I just want to know when it all changed. And it has all changed, at least for me. If you are half my age, Christmases that start in September are all you know. Christmas has become a monster, really. It bares its red and green teeth on the day after Thanksgiving, the most heinous day of the year. Some families make Black Friday an annual event. Line up in the night, and scramble into stores when they open. I would lose my mind. I am uncomfortable around people to begin with, and being around a lot of them with that intent would be unbearable. And it all starts to go back the day after Christmas. I don’t understand. But I don’t understand a lot of things. Why anyone would watch reruns of “Murphy Brown,” unless they lost a bet. I have a friend who couldn’t be happier that Christmas music is played in November, and I am sure that I offend him when I say that it is criminal. Every year he reads “A Christmas Carol.” That’s good. Dickens was brilliant. I sent my friend a copy of the book, printed in the 19th century. That seems like a wonderful tradition. I think we all know the story, but we forget the wording, which is clever and descriptive and unlike any other wording in literature. (By the way, “What the dickens?” and similar phrases, do not refer to Charles Dickens. Answer below.) My parents kept all of our Christmas decorations in a great big box. The box went with us from Michigan to Pennsylvania, California, Ohio, Tennessee and back to Michigan. Every year we got it out. The colorful cardboard boxes that the tree lights were in

for those committed individuals they can use the extra morning time for reading or meditation and prayer time. • Meditation or prayer time (spirit) — spending a portion of the early morning reflecting on our families, our work, and other important relationships, or just sitting in silence, quieting our minds and allowing our emotions and energy to come together in a moment of meditation or prayer. Waking early with the intent of spending some peaceful time within our favorite spot in our home or with Mother Nature also helps us to tap into our creativity as we generate thoughts and ideas for our day. I can tell you firsthand that the benefits of waking early far outweigh the perceived need to sleep in for a couple of extra hours. The feeling of readiness and accomplish-

preserved the unmistakable smell of accumulated years. Eventually, in my 50s, I petitioned to avoid Christmas travel, and it was approved. Flying back and forth that week was never fun. I sometimes wound up spending the night in airports or in airport hotels. In 1955 all I had to do was walk downstairs. We were living near Uniontown, Pa. My father was selling Buicks. There was a Christmas parade. The four of us were in a Buick convertible. Santa was in the back seat. He was. He waved to the crowd, which wasn’t very crowded, and threw candy canes at people. He didn’t have much of an arm. When we reached the end, and it was time to go home, Santa asked my father for a ride. I leaned forward to hear the address, thinking that it might be Canada at the very least and that we were in for a long night. Santa lived a few blocks from us. There was nothing special about his house. I didn’t see a single elf or a single reindeer. I began to have doubts. Now I have doubts about other things. We are smothered with covenants out here — that generally, now, go unchecked — but there are no aesthetic covenants when it comes to exterior Christmas decor. I guess that’s OK. I look at it this way: The kids in those houses don’t know aesthetics from tinsel yet, but they know colorful lights, and maybe they know great expectations. “Dickens” is a euphemism for the devil. I drink eggnog. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

ment feeds the positivity engine and our productivity and effectiveness in everything increases. So if you have not seen many sunrises lately I would encourage you to set your alarm clocks, turn on the coffeepot or heat up the teakettle, and allow yourself to settle in and enjoy the mind, body, spirit, “YOU” time that is long overdue. How about you, have you been up early enough to watch in amazement as the sun in the east kisses our snow-capped mountain peaks in the west? Do you set aside “YOU” time and have you tried giving yourself that time before anyone else wakes up in your home? I would love to hear all about your routine at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we start enjoying the benefits of being an early riser, not only will we catch the worm, but it really will be a better than good week.

payment in December instead of waiting until January 15th. You may be able to deduct the payment on your Schedule A. Consult your tax advisor to make sure this does not trigger Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) or is not more beneficial in 2015. Starting last year, workers earning over $200,000 ($250,000 for joint returns) will pay an additional .09 percent Medicare tax on your wages. For single incomes over $400,000 or joint incomes over $450,000 there will be an additional 3.8 percent tax on investment income and profits. Some taxpayers will lose itemized deductions or the ability to take the American Opportunity tax credit for your college student. Check into paying your property taxes in December for the next year. You may also be able to pay your December mortgage payment the last week of December instead of the first week of January. Review how close you are to the next tax bracket and if some of these extra payments will help keep you out of losing deductions and increasing taxes. Whatever tax planning you are able to accomplish, the payoff will likely be more beneficial than in prior years. It is not too early to start planning for taxes in 2015 as well. After all, the goal is to keep more of your dollars working for you, which means never having to pay more taxes than necessary.

Complete Funeral Service

It is always important to plan for taxes, both to reduce the possible tax liability and to plan for the potential amount due. Effective tax planning this year may save you a bundle. Starting with a major tax law change in 2013, this will be the second year of higher tax brackets, reduced write-offs and additional payroll taxes for some households. This year the Affordable Care Act investment tax of 3.8 percent kicks in for those in the highest tax bracket. This may be a rude awakening for many investors who are not planning on paying an extra tax on investment income or gains. Many taxpayers have been using up tax losses since the Great Recession. This year may be a surprise when you get your tax report early next year. This is where you will see how any mutual funds you held during the year have pushed through taxable profits to their shareholders, even if you did not place any trades. You may find that the bull market on Wall Street has hit your pocketbook as many mutual fund money managers no longer have losses to use up against gains either. Now you may see some higher taxable income on your investment report than normal. It is crucial to get with your tax or financial advisor before the last week of the year and see if there are any advantages to making adjustments in your investment portfolio. If you are in a low tax bracket and want to take advantage of the 10 and 15 percent cap on long-term capital gains, or if you are in the highest tax bracket and can harvest losses, it is worth a phone call. Next, take a look at your income and determine if you have maximized your 401(k) or IRA for the year or if you can defer income into the following year. Some self-employed folks can take advantage of higher limits on 401(k) contributions and may beneﬁt from last-minute business expenses or office improvements that can be written off. Consider maximizing your Health Savings Accounts and fund college 529 plans. Also be sure and make your charitable contributions with appreciated stock if possible. If you pay estimated taxes, consider paying your fourth-quarter Colorado state tax

“Oh, my God,” Rocío said, as she wandered through the store. “This is amazing.”

Continued from Page 2

Strange new world

“Since that day,” she said, “I want to go to school. I want to go to school. I want to go to school … I didn’t know I was going to walk. I didn’t know it was so dangerous. I just knew I wanted to go to school.” Rocío’s parents had returned to Mexico in 2004 when her grandmother died. A year later, her dad went back to Castle Rock. And in February 2008, her mother decided to rejoin him and bring Rocío and her then-five younger siblings. They tried to get student visas to emigrate legally, Rocío said, but didn’t have enough money. So, with a guide and Rocío’s uncle, they crossed the border on foot. Rocío and the adults carried the heaviest of six bags, which held tuna, bread, beans and gallons of water — enough, they thought, for four days. They walked mostly at night and slept under bushes during daylight. They crossed deserts, mountains, highways and ranches. They skirted an airport. They ran out of water on the second day. By the third day, the two men gave up their food portions so the children could eat. On the fourth day, as the group walked along train tracks near a factory in Arizona, a man saw them and began talking on his phone. “Ya nos echaron la migra — they’ve called immigration,” her uncle yelled. “Scatter and run!” Her uncle covered Rocío’s mother, two sisters and a brother with sand in a nearby dry creek bed. Another brother climbed up a tree. Rocío jumped into a dumpster filled with trash. She heard dogs barking and police talking. She stayed there for hours, until her uncle came for her. “It was something I hope I never have to live again,” she said. That evening, they reached a hotel in a town called Guadalupe, south of Phoenix where her father — who in 2010 received a work permit — picked them up. He took them to Walmart to buy food and clothes.

In Castle Rock, Rocío entered school in March as a sophomore — 14 credits transferred from her high school in Mexico. “The first day I was so scared, I didn’t talk to anyone,” she said. “The only thing I knew how to say was `Hi.’ I was happy to be able to continue my education. I was eating lunch and I told myself, `You have to work hard — this isn’t going to be easy.’” It wasn’t. Many days, the frustration of being unable to communicate in English, the struggle academically, the isolation socially, left her in tears. That’s how Wille-Racine met her, crying, huddled in a corner behind a teacher’s desk. “I saw those little eyes looking at me and I said, `Well, hello,’” Wille-Racine said. “That moment changed the rest of my life.” That moment threw Wille-Racine, a Spanish and English as a Second Language teacher and mother of 15-yearold twins, into an unfamiliar world she would come to know intimately — the limbo and uncharted territory of undocumented students. And Rocío’s determination to succeed in school, despite the unceasing obstacles, moved her deeply. “She was fierce,” Wille-Racine said. “So I decided to be fierce right along her side.” When it came time for college, the teacher and the student figured it out as they went: whom to call, where to go, what to do. On her end, Rocío scrambled to find ways to pay for the education she so desperately wanted. She worked two jobs during summers, including cleaning hotels. She borrowed money from friends, which she later repaid. She won a $6,000 scholarship. She cleaned and cooked in return for room and food. At times, she gave up food money for tuition money. Teachers and friends of Wille-Racine also helped by contributing money, clothes, transportation and, sometimes, simply a helping hand.

Whenever an obstacle appeared, Wille-Racine would take a deep breath and wait until, she said, God would work some magic. “I always felt responsible to make something happen,” Wille-Racine said. “She was just looking to me for all the answers, and half the time I didn’t have them.” Said Rocío: “Lisa, she always, always had hope.”

Blossoming in college

College changed everything for Rocío. In high school, she’d often felt alone, invisible. At Highlands, she realized there were many people like her — undocumented, fighting to attend college, working two or three jobs just to be able to go to school. “I found a family,” she said. That newfound community helped her gain confidence, to believe she could make a difference and give back to a society that had given her so much. She joined student organizations that worked with immigration issues at local, state and national levels. They trained administrators about immigration laws, provided legal help to students applying for deferred status, protested and lobbied for change, traveled to conferences to educate themselves about undocumented issues in other states. In November 2013, Rocío traveled to Washington, D.C., with a student organization to lobby for immigration reform. The group staged a mock Thanksgiving dinner in the early morning hours in front of House Speaker John Boehner’s house to show how the holiday would be sad for children separated from families because of deportation. Then students headed to the Capitol to talk to senators and protest for immigration change. “I’ve become an activist,” Rocío said. “I’ve become a fighter for my undocumented community. I’ve become a person unafraid …” The opportunities that college has provided her, Rocío said, solidified her willingness to step into the open despite possible legal consequences. “I’m still insecure in this country,” she said. “They can deport me any time.

But we have to make a difference. If we are afraid, nothing is going to happen and we will be the same — invisible people living here. If we the students don’t make the change, nobody is going to make it for us.” She is proud of what she’s accomplished, particularly that she’s set a path for others to follow. Two brothers, also undocumented, are also at Highlands. “I don’t know how to describe how I feel,” Rocío said. “I just feel special, lucky to go to college, to be the first person in my family to finish high school, to finish college. It makes me feel I should work even more.” Last spring, her sister Miriam, who graduates from high school in May, wrote this for her high school publication: “My sister, Rocío, is my hero, because when my parents had to come to the United States to work to be able to … buy what we needed, she was 15 years old. She took care of me, my sister and two brothers, and she had to go to school, too … When we moved here … a lot of people would tell her she wouldn’t go further in school because she didn’t understand English. But … she never gives up. Now, she is almost done with college.” On Dec. 12, Rocío received her degree in Spanish with a minor in Native American-Hispano studies. She would like to pursue a master’s in education in curriculum and instruction. She would like to teach. But she can’t — she doesn’t have a Social Security number or a work permit. So she waits. And hopes. And continues to look into her heart for the truth she has carried with her always: “Education is the only key to success.” Ann Macari Healey’s column about people, places and issues of everyday life appears every other week.

Annual education luncheon celebrates successes Speakers highlight changes in learning, business community’s interest By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Some of Douglas County’s most wellknown business people gathered at the Lone Tree Marriott Hotel Dec. 12 to support local schools. A total of 114 people attended the annual Love Our Schools luncheon, an annual event organized by the Douglas County Educational Foundation.

Speakers included a Mammoth Heights Elementary teacher who redesigned her classroom to encourage a new style of learning and Douglas County Commissioner Jill Repella. Two years ago, teacher Mary Lisa Harper redesigned her second-grade Parker classroom into what is now called the Primary Innovation Studio. The space is designed to encourage motion, exploration, individual and team projects and overall enhanced engagement. “I have had the luxury of being able to create a classroom that is really conducive to learning,” she told the lunch guests at

the hotel. “It’s not about me on a stage. It’s walking side by side with my kids on their journey. “When we were in school, we did what the teachers told us to do all the time. (Now) we need adults that can go into the work place and create, problem solve.” The organized, but freer style of instruction encourages development of those skills. And Harper said it’s catching on. “My class is not the only great class,” she said. “All of this has dominoed through the district.” Repella has three children enrolled in Douglas County schools whom she said are thriving. The recent running mate to unsuccessful gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez, Repella also is a former Douglas County School District board member. She described the growth in jobs and decrease in unemployment since she joined the board of county commissioners in 2008. “I never in my wildest dreams thought we would have this much success in Douglas County,” she said. The topic of education comes up frequently with present and potential Douglas County employers, she said, adding many of them choose the area because of the quality of education.

“Everything the school district does partners with the business community, directly or indirectly,” she said. “From my perspective, the business community is very, very interested in education. They’re willing to invest in education, knowing that’s what they’re going to get for their future work force.” During the campaign season, she said she heard concerns from constituents about the language in some education-related legislative bills. “We cannot continue to prescribe onesize-fits all,” she said. “We cannot tell professionals how to do their jobs. We can tell them these are the outcomes we expect.” Nutrition Services director Brent Craig also spoke about the district’s student nutrition program. School board president Kevin Larsen talked about student accomplishments. Douglas County Educational Foundation board chair Amy Sherman noted the DCEF recently was ranked 14th on a listing of the top 25 educational foundations nationwide. The DCEF manages 90 chapters and booster clubs and eight scholarship funds totaling more than $7 million, and makes funds available for teachers’ professional development.

Whether it’s eating breakfast with or telling stories to kids, arriving at a mall in a fire truck, cruising around on a motorcycle or asking children what they want for Christmas, he is truly a man for all seasons. However, this is the season he shines brightest.

Wineries win big Seven Colorado wineries earned a total of 28 medals from the 15th annual Jefferson Cup Invitational, the only competition that honors the best of the best among wineries from all of America’s wine regions. Each year Doug Frost, M.S., M.W., selects great wines from across America. “What we are doing is following Mr. Jefferson’s example and allowing every quality wine-producing region in America a place at our table,” said Frost. “Each year we select great wines from across America; the 2014 competition included wines from 25 states.” The two-day competition, Nov. 20 and 21 in Kansas City, Mo., culminated with the awarding of 38 Jefferson Cup Awards to 11 white wines, 20 red wines and seven dessert wines. Jefferson Cups were awarded to wines made from both Vitis vinifera vines (a European species responsible for wines such as Chardonnay and Merlot) and non-vinifera vines,

which flourish in the more extreme climates in the center portion of the United States. Colorado was represented in this top category for the sixth year in a row. This year, Bookcliff Vineyards took home its fourth Jefferson Cup for its 2013 Malbec and The Winery at Holy Cross Abbey earned its first Jefferson Cup for its 2012 Merlot Reserve. Both Bookcliff Vineyards and The Winery at Holy Cross Abbey were also represented in the 2014 Colorado Governor’s Cup Case for their Malbec and Merlot, respectively. Other Colorado wineries that were invited and garnered awards were Anemoi, Boulder Creek Winery, Canyon Wind Cellars, Grand River Vineyards, and Whitewater Hill Vineyards.

When government chooses to provide this type of public benefit, it has to do so evenhandedly.” Douglas said the state’s guiding document is clear. “Parents are free to choose religious education for their children,” he said. “But under the plain language of the Colorado Constitution, public taxpayer money cannot fund that choice.” Because tuition was passed to private schools not by the district, but by parents who chose from among the qualifying schools, Lyons said the program is legal. “Parental choice breaks the link,” he said.

Making ugly meaningful Hideous holiday sweaters bring folks together, merchant says By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Hold on to your crocheted stocking hat with your knitted mittens — ugly Christmas sweater season has arrived. “It’s about laughter, happiness,” said Elizabeth Blume, owner of the Clothing-XChange consignment store in the Oakbrook Shopping Center. “It’s really about feeling part of something.” Blume realized last year that the ugly sweater craze was really catching on. “It’s just become a phenomenon,” she said. Dec. 12 is now “National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day,” when everyone is supposed to don the most catastrophic cardigan they can find and go on about their business as though everything was normal. “Wear it to school, to work, to a funeral, to your sister’s wedding,” reads the website at www.nationaluglychristmassweaterday. org. “Got an important interview on Friday? Oops, tough luck. Worried the judge will increase your sentence if you show up to court in an ugly Christmas sweater? Sorry bud, no exceptions.” Then, on Dec. 20, the Ugly Sweater Run 5K will commence from Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, a benefit for Save the Children’s “Make the World Better with a Sweater” campaign. “If you want to wear spandex under your sweater and race fast, that’s cool, but you’re missing the point,” according to the event’s website. “This is a fun run to burn some calories before slamming some hot chocolate

Elizabeth Blume is jumping on the ugly Christmas sweater craze in a big way. Photo by Jennifer Smith and Sam Adams.” For Blume, hopping on the ugly sweater bandwagon was a no-brainer. Back in the ‘80s, she studied fashion in Paris, got a master’s degree in international business and marketing and ended up in Hong Kong designing sweaters for The Limited. A husband and two kids later, she settled in Castle Rock and fed her passion for the garment industry by working at the Cotton Kloset consignment store in Parker. Blume calls the owner of that store, Sandy Yates, her inspiration for opening Clothing-XChange in 2010.

Now, she hopes to pass that same inspiration onto her own employees. “I’m so blessed to be able to employ people,” she said. “I want to be a mentor. I want to emulate Tim Gunn (of Project Runway fame), where he mentors people into their next thing.” Her thing this holiday season is scrounging up the worst, mostly vintage, sweaters she can find and making them even more delightfully tacky. She can add blinking lights, ornaments, garland, tinsel — any and all the accoutrements of Christmas. “We try to find things you can’t really

find anywhere else to make them unique,” she said. Fortunately, she hasn’t faced the horror of discovering any sweaters she designed in the “ugly sweater” pile. “But there have been some that have come pretty close,” she laughs. For her, the sweaters are just one more way to bring tradition and togetherness to families and friends throughout the season. “They’re unifying, equalizing. They put everyone on a level playing field,” she said. “I love Christmas, and the reason for the season. I just love God.”

SCOTLAND HAS a fierce national identity and deep historical ties with the United States. The future of this country is somewhat uncertain, however, given the national referendum on independence on Sept. 18, 2014. The lasting implications of this vote may not be clear for some time, but at a minimum, it highlights a segment of the population that is unhappy with the status quo and looking for change. Join Active Minds from 10-11 a.m. Friday, Dec. 19, as we explore the Scotland’s history, its current situation, and the future direction the country may be heading. Program is at the Malley Senior Center, 3380 S. Lincoln St., Englewood. Call 303-762-2660 to RSVP. If parking in the lot, get pass from inside center EDITOR’S NOTE: Calendar submissions must be received by noon Wednesday for publication the following week.

In the late 19th century, there was a tradition known as the Christmas “Side Hunt,” according to the Audubon Society’s website. People chose teams and went out with guns to see who could kill the most feathered and furred targets and bring a pile back. In 1900 Frank Chapman, an early Audubon Society officer, suggested a new tradition: a Christmas Bird Census — going out to count them instead. He recruited 27 dedicated birders who organized counts in 25 different areas from Toronto, Ontario, to Pacific Grove, Calif. About 90 total species were tallied that first year and the tradition became established. From Dec 14 through early January this season, thousand of birders — beginning, intermediate and advanced — will comb a given 15-mile radius and report back a count — across the United States, Canada and Latin America. Figures are compiled and used by scientists and conservationists to follow bird populations. Nearly 60 percent of widely distributed species have been affected by climate change

South Metro Fall Athletes of the Year Coming next week: football By Jim Benton jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Three state champions, the Continental League softball batting champion and a pitcher who recorded two perfect games headline the 10 athletes selected as the Colorado Community Media South Metro Players of the Year for the fall season. Coaches were consulted in the selection of athletes from the schools covered by our newspapers in the south metro area. The CCM All-South Metro football teams and players of the year will be announced in next week’s editions. SkyView Academy junior Ben Butler won the Class 3A individual cross country championship and was tabbed as the boys ross country Runner of the Year. Junior Allison Smith of Ponderosa was the volleyball Player of the Year. Jacob Bendalin and Wyatt Dale of Cherry Creek captured the Class 5A No. 1 doubles title and were the tennis Players of the Year. Rock Canyon sophomore Sloane Stewartson won her second consecutive Continental League batting championship and was the softball Pitcher of the Year while Castle View’s Savannah Heebner took home the honors as the Pitcher of the Year. Several difficult choices had to be made in selecting the top performers in each sport. For instance, it was hard to overlook volleyball players like Kasie Gilfert of Legend and Castle View’s Madison Laufenberg. And in softball, Ponderosa strikeout leader Ally Power deserved recognition, as did Douglas County infielder Clara Larson. Valor Christian won the Class 4A softball title behind the pitching of Alexandra Kilponen and hitting of center fielder Kendall Ohman. The following are the Colorado Community Media fall Players of the Year:

GOLF: Jake Staiano, Valor Christian, senior

The Jefferson County Player of the Year was 16-under par in the five league tournaments. He was second in Class 4A state golf tournament with Staiano a 4-under-par 140. Staino carded one round of 65 and averaged 69.1 for the season. He will play golf at Colorado State University next year.

to a .154 average. Heebner led the team in hitting with a .444 average that included eight doubles and four home runs. She will play for the University of Houston next season.

SOFTBALL PLAYER: Sloane Stewartson, Rock Canyon, sophomore

Stewartson led the Continental League with .632 batting average, eight home runs, 1.140 slugging percentage and .690 on base percent- Stewartson age. She was second in the league with 32 runs batted in. She also had a 1.000 fielding percentage as a catcher. It was the second straight season to win the league batting title.

BOYS CROSS COUNTRY: Ben Butler, SkyView Academy, junior Bendalin

Dale

TENNIS: Jacob Bendalin, sophomore and Wyatt Dale, sophomore, Cherry Creek doubles teammates

The tandem went on to win the Class 5A title at No. 1 doubles. The two teamed up to win at No. 4 doubles in 2013.

SOFTBALL PITCHER: Savannah Heebner, Castle View, senior

The right-hander went 20-4 with a 0.77 earned run average. She had eight shutouts including two perfect games. She struck out 263 batters in 164 innings pitched and held opposing batters

Butler won Class 3A state championship with a time of 16:18.2. He was also the regional, league and Arvada West Invitational Butler champion. The only race he didn’t win was a big school Lyons race in September in which he ran fourth.

GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY: Devon Peterson, Cherry Creek, sophomore

ery meet this season. As a sophomore she figured out how to compete in races and split time with her club soccer team.

SOCCER: Brian Olcott, Rock Canyon, senior Olcott was the Continental League Player of the Year for the league champion Jaguars. He led the league in scoring and goals with 49 points and 22 Olcott goals. He scored at least one goal in 12 of the 13 games this season and tallied twice in a state quarterfinal match despite playing with an injured ankle.

VOLLEYBALL: Allison Smith, Ponderosa, junior The 6-foot1 outside hitter helped the Mustangs finish second in the Class 4A state tournament. She finished the season with 416 kills, and 43.7 kill Smith percentage, a 30.8 hitting percentage, 46 blocks and 291 digs.

Sabercats face early struggles on court The inexperienced girls team falls to No. 1 Valor Christian By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Castle View girls basketball coach Matt Hema dislikes the word rebuilding. So it is best to say that the Sabercats are starting over after losing eight seniors off last season’s 18-8 team. Valor Christian, the state’s top-ranked Class 4A team according to the CHSAANow.Com, romped to a 76-33 victory over the 5A Sabercats Dec. 12 at the Castle View gym. Castle View will take a 1-4 record to Phoenix Dec. 18-22 to play in the Nike Tournament of Champions. “Those seniors we had last year had experience on the court,” said Hema. “They are gone. We had five girls over 6-foot graduate. We lost all that size. “We’ve just got to get games under our belt and play a little bit more together, keep playing harder and keep playing together.” One of Castle View’s best players, senior Taylor Smith, is sidelined with a knee injury and the game against Valor was over early. Castle View scored first on a basket by junior Shaina Smidt, but Valor’s pressing defense and up-tempo offense quickly

took over. Valor led 26-3 after the first quarter and never slowed down in forcing the Sabercats, who shot 34.8 percent, into 21 turnovers during the contest. Kendall Bradbury scored 27 points and Caroline Bryan added 21 in Valor’s 43-point triumph, which improved the Eagles record to 3-0. Savannah Heebner, a 6-foot-1 senior, paced Castle View with 10 points while Mikayla Gonzales had eight points. We’re looking to be improved by the end of the season,” said Hema. “We’ve played some pretty good teams. We don’t have a patsy schedule. We’re going to Arizona to play some pretty good teams. “When we get back, we play Rampart and Pueblo West. They are both really good teams. We play a team from Wyoming coming down from Natrona. Then we are into league play, so when does it get easier? Our team has to grow up, and they have to grow up quickly or we’re going struggle.” Hema feels there is a good chance the early-season struggles could be erased. “Now is time when we figure out who we want to be,” he said. “I hate to use the word young because we have juniors and seniors. We’re an inexperienced team that has got to figure some things out. Who are we going to be and how are we going to play together? What kind of style and how are we going to be successful? Obviously we are not there.”

Game-changers Area coaches agree: Good hockey goaltenders can steal wins

Goalies are in 12similar to quarterbacks in football in that they can steal a lliedgame for you. de- “The great part of hockey, though, is having a strong defensive core and forwards that are committed to playing defense, which also helps with making goalies successful.” Andrew Nash, an Arapahoe High School senior, has been a four-year goalie for the Heritage co-op team and doesn’t mind being bombarded by shots during practice or having players celebrate when they score. “They have to celebrate like that because they don’t score very much,” Nash said. “Goalie is a fun position. I like getting hit with a lot of things. I’ve been a goalie for eight years. I tried it once and I loved it. I model myself after Patrick Roy.” Cohen has three goalies competing for the No.1 job for Mountain Vista. Tanner Munn, a Rock Canyon student, saw action in two games last season for the Golden Eagles. Mitch Volmert, who attends Chaparral, and Jackson Schoech, a Legend student, are new to the team. “Every time you get scored on, you try to clear your mind and worry about the next shot,” Munn said. “It’s not really who is the better goalie. It’s all a mental game, focus and preparation.” Volmert knows he is competing for one of the most im-

The goalie needs to be good. The defenseman around help and then will rely on the goalie.” Schoech feels a good netminder can be an equalizer. “If the team is having a bad game and you are a good goalie, you can change the game,” he said. “If you face 50 shots in a 1-0 game, you can give your team confidence that we can win the game.” Brady Mielnicki is a senior and returning starter at Cher-

The role I fill is as important as each and every one of my teammates. “A team builds off their goalie; a big save can lead to a teammate scoring a game-winning goal. It is easy to take great goaltending for granted, but it is hard to replace a great goalie.” Dylan Wheeler is starting the season as Valor Christian’s top goalie.

received a highly effective rating under the new evaluation system. Lauer, who has almost two decades of teaching experience, took a pay cut to go to Cherry Creek. “The very first day (in Cherry Creek), they had a newteacher orientation,” she said. “They had the union president, the superintendent and the board president all there working together. They said we respect our teachers and work together. “I really miss my colleagues and the family relationships I had built at Saddle Ranch every day. But as far as being able to do my job and being treated like a professional, I’m much happier.” Lauer said she is not alone. “At just about every training I go to, I continue to see somebody else (from Douglas County),” she said. “We call ourselves the refugees.” Ten percent of Cherry Creek’s newly hired licensed staff members came from Denver Public Schools, 8 percent from Aurora Public Schools, 3 percent from Jefferson County, and 14 percent from other Colorado school districts. Twenty-one percent are from out of state. Twelve percent are from within Cherry Creek School District; most are non-renewed probationary teachers. In Littleton, 14 teachers came from Denver Public Schools, 9 from Jefferson County and 3 each from Aurora Public Schools and Cherry Creek. Other school districts, including Boulder Valley, Jefferson County and Denver said they don’t track the information. Cherry Creek will continue to do so annually. “We’ve always tracked who came from out of state, (which is) where we have the most success recruiting,” Amole said. “This year, we decided to track the ones coming from in-state to determine where we were competitive, and also where we weren’t. “We will do this going forward. Next year, we’ll be able to see if we’re seeing a trend.”

AMENDED APPLICATION FOR CHANGE OF WATER RIGHTS AND A PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION, IN ADAMS, ARAPAHOE, DENVER, DOUGLAS, ELBERT, LARIMER, MORGAN AND WELD COUNTIES. 2. Background and Relationship of the Applicants and Applicants’ Prior Decrees and Pending Cases. 2.1. Background. On December 15, 2009, ACWWA, United, and ECCV entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement (“IGA”) to provide for ACWWA’s participation with ECCV and United in an integrated system for the diversion, accretion, collection, storage, transmission, and treatment of their water rights. The integrated system, which is also referred to as the Water Supply Project or the Northern Project, is designed to provide ECCV and ACWWA with a long-term, sustainable municipal water supply for their respective service areas located in Arapahoe and Douglas Counties, Colorado. Maps of ACWWA’s and ECCV’s service areas are attached as Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2, respectively. Pursuant to the IGA, United will provide ACWWA with 4,400 acre-feet of consumptive use water that will be delivered through ECCV’s water delivery facilities for use within ACWWA’s service area. 2.2. Decreed Components of the Water Supply Project. The Water Court has previously decreed various components of the Water Supply Project for ECCV and United’s use: 2.2.1. In Case No. 02CW403, the Water Court approved a plan for augmentation (“ECCV Augmentation Plan”) for ECCV’s Upper Beebe Draw wellfield (“ECCV Well Field”), as described in paragraph 15.1 of that decree. The ECCV Augmentation Plan allowed for the addition of wells to the augmentation plan and for the use of additional sources of substitute supply to replace the out-ofpriority depletions resulting from pumping the ECCV Well Field. 2.2.2. In Case Nos. 02CW404 and 03CW442, the Water Court approved the addition of six (6) wells to the ECCV Well Field, additional sources of replacement water to the ECCV Augmentation Plan approved in Case No. 02CW403, and a recharge project in the Beebe Draw (the “Beebe Draw Recharge Project”).

What Every Knee Arthritis Sufferer Should Know About This Often Successful Medical Treatment The Advanced Medical Treatment Every Knee Arthritis Sufferer Needs To Know - Before Thinking About Knee Replacement Surgery

El Paso County - If you suffer with knee arthritis pain, you have probably already tried many treatments... especially countless pain medications. Experienced doctors understand that, even though pain medications such as anti-inflammatory pain pills are part of the recommended early treatment plan for knee arthritis pain...they are rarely the answer. In most cases they have minimal results (if any) and have a laundry list of potential side effects. Some being serious and even life threatening. Are There Any Better Options? Thankfully, advancements in science and technology come extremely fast. And now there is a very good option for knee arthritis to help relieve the pain. An option that a lot of knee arthritis sufferers have never heard of... and even worse... have not been properly informed about. Before we get into the actual treatment, please understand this... Osteo Relief Institute is a real medical clinic that has treated thousands of knee arthritis sufferers. Patients travel from all over the country to be treated at their clinic because they want the best medical treatments available. What you are about to discover is a REAL medical treatment. Not a miracle cure you see on infomercials or on the internet. Know this fact: There is no cure for arthritis. But there is this treatment that... when performed correctly and with the proper technology... has already helped thousands

of knee arthritis sufferers possibly just like you. Even if you have heard of this treatment - or even tried it without good results - please read this. You will find out why it may not have worked for you and how you may be able to get much better results. What is This Treatment? This treatment is called viscosupplementation. And it has gained quite a bit of popularity in recent years and it has gotten mixed results for a couple of reasons. But before we get into that, here’s what you need to know about viscosupplementation. When you have arthritis, you suffer a decrease in the cushioning and lubricating fluids in your knee. In other words, your knee joint basically “dries up.” The lubricating fluid that decreases is called “synovial fluid.” Pharmaceutical companies (with the help of scientists) can now make natural synovial fluid gellike compounds that, during viscosupplementation treatments...doctors can precisely introduce directly into the knee and other joints. This helps replace the lubricating fluid to the knee joint - allowing it to move more freely and smoothly and often decreasing or even eliminating the pain. What Results Can Be Expected? Like all medical treatments, the results vary and can not be predicted. But many knee arthritis sufferers get dramatic results. It is not uncommon for patients to either postpone knee replacement surgery for years... or even permanently cancel it.

But There Is A BIG Problem The key is the treatment must be EXTREMELY PRECISE. If the injection is slightly off, the medication will not get into the knee joint and the treatment will not work. That’s why the experts at Osteo Relief Institute use advanced digital imaging so they can see the medicine going directly into the knee joint during the treatment. Research shows that doctors performing joint injections without imaging miss the joint as much as 30% of the time. If you have tried viscosupplementation without this special digital imaging without good results - this may be why. That’s why Osteo Relief Institute takes it even one step further. They do not just use one step process of advanced imaging during treatment - they use two in their “double confirmation” process. This is to ensure patients get the best possible results. Another Important Factor Viscosupplementation medications also come in several different brands and chemical make-ups. Just like all medications, some people respond better to some than others. While many doctors only use one brand, the experts at Osteo Relief Institute use several and great effort is taken to figure out what the best one for YOU is. One last thing: The experts at Osteo Relief Institute have found that the earlier you start Viscosupplementation the better. This is most likely because the longer you wait - the more joint destruction takes place. That’s why Osteo Relief

Advanced Imaging Allows Doctors To Pin-Point Treatments And Relieve Knee Arthritis Pain

Science rescues knee arthritis sufferers? Research shows joint injections done without advanced imaging misses the joint about 30% of the time. Now doctors can put lubricating fluid directly into the arthritic joint that may alleviate pain and restore function to many.

is now seeing so many patients as young as 45. Summary: If you have knee arthritis pain and have not tried Viscosupplementation, you should look into it as soon as possible. If you have tried it without good results, you may still be able to get great results with the proper imaging and specific medication Who Should Try This Treatment? Not everyone is a candidate for this treatment. But if you are, there is a good chance you may relieve some... or possibly all of your pain. You are a potential candidate for this treatment if you have knee pain and have not gotten good results from antiinflammatory medication or other common arthritis treatments. Especially if you have already tried viscosupplementation without good results. The best way to tell if you are a good candidate for this treatment is to be screened by one of

the doctors at Colorado Springs, CO. What To Do Next If You Are In Pain: Your Invitation Osteo Relief Institute offers a limited number of complimentary knee arthritis treatment screenings every month. These screenings are a way for knee arthritis sufferers to get some of their questions answered and see if they are a candidate for this treatment. If you would like a complimentary screening, just call 719-323-6612 and tell the scheduling specialist who answers the phone, “I would like a complimentary knee arthritis screening.” The screenings fill up fast every month. If you do not call in time to get one this month, the specialist will schedule you for next month. This screening is no cost and no obligation. This treatment is covered by many insurance plans and Medicare.
