Dilemma: Cut trailers or move students?
School board vote on redistricting plan set for Jan. 16 By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
What’s more important: Eliminating portable classroom trailers or limiting boundary shifts for elementary school students and their families? That’s the dilemma the Prince
William School Board will face this week when it makes a final decision Wednesday, Jan. 16, on new boundaries for 16 eastern county elementary schools. The changes in school attendance areas are being made to relieve some of the worst elementary school overcrowding in the county. The schools
involved in the boundary shifts currently use 61 classroom trailers to provide more space. The new elementary school now under construction on Prince William Parkway will be the main source of relief for that overcrowding. More classrooms have also been added through recent additions to
Lake Ridge, Antietam, Springwoods and Minnieville elementary schools. In all, the new school construction in eastern Prince William will add 95 classrooms at a cost of about $200 million, Superintendent Steven Walts told the school board during a Jan. 10 work session. See SCHOOL BOARD, page 4
School enrollment growth slows Changes could make room for projects aimed at cutting trailers By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
The usually fast-growing Prince William school division caught a break in 2018: County schools logged the smallest number of new students since 1984. As a result, officials are now mulling changes to the schools’ future building plans to add two more elementary schools as well as several middle school additions aimed at nearly eliminating portable classroom trailers by 2028. Enrollment across the county’s 95 schools grew by only 342 students this year, or about 0.4 percent, compared to the 2017-18 school year. That’s 852 students fewer than the school division’s projections. The school division also welcomed its smallest kindergarten class since 2013 – at 6,254 students. By comparison, county schools enrolled 6,435 new kindergarten students in 2017. The reduction contributed to the second consecutive drop in overall enrollment at the elementary school level, David Cline, Prince William County schools’ now-retired associate superintendent of finance and support services told school board members during a Jan. 9 work session on proposed changes to the school division’s capital-improvement plan. The county’s middle and high schools are still

Memorial fund set up in memory of Haymarket teen Staff Reports A memorial fund has been set up to raise money for local nonprofits that support suicide prevention in memory of Karissa “Kris” Banker, a Haymarket teen who was found dead near his family’s Haymarket home Friday, Jan. 11. Banker, 16, is believed to have taken his own life. The Prince William County Police Department issued a missing and endangered juvenile alert after Banker was reported missing by his family on Thursday, Jan. 10.
Police confirmed that Banker’s body was located near the home the next day. No foul play is suspected, but the department can release no further details Karissa “Kris” Banker because of Banker’s age, said Officer Nathan Probus, spokesperson for the Prince William County Police Department. Michael Fiveash, a neighbor and
friend of the family, set up the GoFundMe page over the weekend as a way for friends and the community to support the Banker family in their grief. Fiveash received permission from Banker’s parents to share the GoFundMe link with the Prince William Times. It can be found at: https://www.gofundme.com/kris-banker-memorial-fund. Fiveash describes Banker as “beautiful, kind and generous.” “We pray Kris has found eternal peace, and God can somehow comfort those who loved him without reservation or judgment,” Fiveash
wrote. “We pray that Kris’ younger sister and brother heal from their loss and remember him as the kind, loving and supportive person all siblings need in their life.” Fiveash said the family hopes the donations will go toward helping local teens who suffer from mental illness. “We pray for all children who suffer from mental health as well as for further advances in its treatment and medicine,” he wrote. “The only request from the family is for parents to take this moment, hug your children and tell them they are loved!”
Dumfries’ Harold and Cathy’s reopens after crash Harold and Cathy’s Dumfries Café reopened for breakfast Friday, Jan. 11, a little more than a week after a customer accidentally crashed her car into its glass-and-brick exterior on Jan. 3. The customer, whose name has not been released, eats at Harold and Cathy's every Thursday. She had just finished lunch before the accident occurred. She told police she inadvertently put her vehicle in drive instead of reverse, according to the restaurant's assistant manager. After the accident, the popular
Dumfries diner received an outpouring of support and offers of help from its many regulars. Harold and Cathy's has served breakfast and lunch in from its spot along U.S. 1 for nearly three decades. The brick wall damaged in the accident has been fixed, but the windows have yet to be replaced, said Dumfries Mayor Derrick Wood. That will happen soon. The restaurant was given a temporary occupancy permit. Wood said he planned to have breakfast there Friday morning.

Woodbridge state delegate proposes paid family leave bill By Daniel Berti
Capital News Service
RICHMOND -- Democratic lawmakers have introduced legislation that would provide Virginia workers up to three months of paid family and medical leave every year. The bills would create a paid leave program, effective Jan. 1, 2022, for workers who are new parents, family of active duty military personnel, have serious medical conditions, or care for family members with serious medical conditions. Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy, D-2nd, of Woodbridge, sponsor of House Bill 2120, made her case for paid family and medical leave in Virginia at a press conference Monday. “Spending time with a dying relative, giving birth to a child, caring for a sick parent, these should not be privileges reserved just for wealthy Virginians,” Carroll Foy said. “Hard-working, middle-class Virginians deserve to spend time with their families like everyone else does.” Sen. Jennifer Boysko, D-33rd, of Herndon, a sponsor of an identical bill in the Senate, spoke about the economic benefits of paid leave for businesses. “Paid leave programs have been shown to benefit businesses, making it more likely that employees will re-

Under the paid leave program workers would be eligible to receive up to 70 percent of their average weekly wage, without exceeding $850 per week. Self-employed workers would also be provided the option of participating in the program. The maximum combined amount of paid leave per year for qualifying workers would be 12 weeks.
In order to qualify for paid leave benefits, an employee would need to meet the administrative requirements in the bill, the requirements laid out in the state’s benefit eligibility conditions, and submit an application to the Virginia Employment Commission. Funding for the proposed program would be provided by a family and medical leave insurance fund established by the Commission and financed through payroll taxes.
With Vogel’s help, ERA clears state Senate By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
On the Virginia General Assembly's opening day, state Sen. Jill Vogel, of Fauquier County, was one of only two Republicans to cast a vote in favor of advancing the Equal Rights Amendment to the floor of the state Senate, where supporters were optimistic it would pass Tuesday, Jan. 15. But whether the measure will make through the Virginia House of Delegates is less certain and depends, in part, on another Fauquier County state lawmaker: Del. Mark Cole, who said in December he does not support it. Cole, R-88th, is chairman of the House Privileges and Elections Committee, where the ERA resolution, SJ 284, could land if it is approved by the state’s upper chamber. Vogel chairs the state Senate P&E committee, where the ERA passed Jan. 9, on an 8-to-6 vote. All six Democrats on the Senate committee voted in favor of the measure along with two Republicans: Vogel and Sen. Bill DeSteph Jr., of the Virginia Beach-area 8th District. The ERA is making a big splash in the General Assembly this year because of a push to make Virginia the 38th and final state needed to ratify the amendment, which would enshrine women’s equality in the U.S. Constitution. Democrats are largely in favor of that goal, while many Republicans have argued the amendment is no longer need-
ed or have expressed reservations about possible unintended consequences. Vogel, R-27th, said she’s been a loyal supporter Virginia’s past attempts to ratify the ERA but says she considers it a largely “symbolic vote.” “Technically, the time to ratify it has passed, and of the states that have ratified, some have rescinded that ratification,” Vogel said in a telephone message. “So the vote is really no longer about what it purports to be about, which is amending the U.S. Constitution.” Still, Vogel said she believes it would be inconsistent for her to vote against the ERA, considering she’s both a woman and a Virginia trailblazer. In 2012, Vogel was the first legislator in the history of the commonwealth to give birth while in office. Three weeks after her daughter Olivia was born in April of that year, Vogel was back in Richmond to vote on the state budget. “For me to sit there and cast a vote that takes a different position, at least in this case, seems to be really inconsistent and not the example I would set for the people who really only understand this as a symbolic vote,” she added. The push to ratify the ERA is clearly more than just symbolic to its many supporters, hundreds of whom turned out to Richmond for a rally before the session’s opening day. State lawmakers were celebrating both the General Assembly’s opening day and the 400th anniversary of House of Delegates, which first met as
the House of Burgesses in 1619. That’s part of the appeal of introducing the ERA this year, said Kati Hornung, campaign coordinator for Virginia Ratify ERA. “The idea is for Virginia to make history by passing the ERA during this historic year,” she said. The ERA was first introduced in 1923. In 1972, the amendment passed through Congress and was ratified by 35 states by 1982, the deadline federal lawmakers set for states to consider the amendment. In recent years, there has been a revived push toward ratification. In 2017, Nevada became the 36th state to ratify the ERA, followed by Illinois the next year. Because the deadline has expired, some say the ERA can’t be ratified. But other experts disagree. The 27th Amendment, which regulates congressional salaries, was ratified more than 200 years after its 1789 introduction, though it was never given a time limit, unlike the ERA. “There are very smart and reasonable people on both sides who disagree over whether Congress has the constitutional authority in the first place to put a time limit on the ratification of a constitutional amendment,” said Sen. Glen Sturtevant, R-10th, who is a chief co-sponsor of the resolution. Georgia Geen and Alexandra Zernik of the Capital News Service contributed to this report.
Sen. Barbara Favola, D-31st, of Arlington, is sponsoring a related bill that would provide a parental leave tax credit to small businesses that would begin in 2021. SB 1376 aims to create an income tax credit for a portion of the salary or wages paid by small businesses to full-time employees while on leave for the birth or adoption of a child. The bill requires small businesses to provide full-time employees with at least eight weeks of paid parental leave. In June, Gov. Ralph Northam (D) signed an executive order offering eight weeks of leave at full pay to state employees for the birth or adoption of a child. Del. Roxann Robinson, R-Chesterfield, introduced HB 2234 last week to increase the amount of paid parental leave for state employees to 12 weeks. During the press conference, advocates for paid family leave spoke about the importance of the proposed legislation for working families in Virginia. Foy shared a personal account of the hardship she experienced in the absence of paid leave. “I’m standing here as a middle-class, working mother, and I implore all Virginians to support this,” Foy said. “It’s not only an economic issue. It is a human rights issue.”

Inspection for Damage Prevention
Heavy, wet snows, wind, ice and rain. That’s winter. It’s not uncommon to see a lot of limbs down on properties after serious winter storms. Cleanup takes care of the debris, but an arborist should make a careful inspection of the trees and shrubs on your property to ensure that the damage they have sustained during the harsh weather will not cause problems later. Heavy snows may have injured the trunks and branches of trees. Splits may occur in multi-stemmed plants that may need cabling and bracing or pruning to eliminate the weakened branches. Leaning trees, trees that are subject to high wind loading (top heavy) or trees on sloping ground are susceptible to root failure. The buttress roots should be inspected carefully. It’s worthwhile to protect your investment in your landscape with inspections to avoid expensive tree and shrub replacements later on. A program of managed health care for trees and shrubs involves regular inspections throughout the year by a professional arborist – to identify and correct conditions before they reach the “crisis” stage.

School board vote on redistricting plan set for Jan. 16 SCHOOL BOARD, from page 1
Six plans considered
The school board called the work session to consider three new redistricting plans drawn up by individual school board members in response to parent complaints about three plans recommended by a special boundary committee of parents and school division staff members. Among other things, parents voiced concerns about breaking up communities between two schools and having to drive longer distances to take their children to and from school or to attend school events. A goal of the original committee’s plans was to reduce overcrowding at as many of the schools as possible and significantly cut the number of classroom trailers spread among the schools. Of the three initial plans, two would eliminate all but seven of the 61 portable trailers by 2021, while a third would leave eight trailers in place. The three new plans – proposed by School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef (at large) and School Board members Lillie Jessie (Occoquan), Diane Raulston (Neabsco) and Loree Williams (Woodbridge) – eliminate fewer trailers but keep school communities more intact. Lateef’s plan would eliminate all but 16 trailers. The plan proposed by Jessie and Raulston would leave 22 trailers in place next year, while the plan offered by Williams would leave 25 trailers. Both Jessie and Williams ac-
knowledged their plans leave more trailers, but said they favor disrupting fewer students in the short term to take a longer-term approach to solving school overcrowding. For Jessie, who has been a vocal advocate for eliminating classroom trailers for safety reasons, the position was an about face. During the work session, Jessie said her plan focuses not on trailers but on moving as few families as possible. “We’re looking at trailers and I’m concerned about the number of children we’re moving from place to place,” Jessie said. “I’m concerned about the least number of children being moved and [allowing] people who are in their [schools] to be able to stay in their schools.” Williams said she hoped to minimize disruptions to students in the early grades when they are making friends and adjusting to school. Williams also noted that the school division would be adding two more schools in the U.S. 1 corridor over the next 10 years. She said she hoped to avoid moving students and families twice. “I’m in 100-percent agreement that we need to reduce trailers. … It’s not a matter of not wanting to see them go away,” Williams said. “But we need to be thinking about it from a long-term perspective.” Some school board members, however, took issue with the fact that one of the plans would result in the new school, dubbed “Parkway Elementary” for now, being overcrowded when it opens, requiring
Comparing plans The Prince William County School Board is considering six redistricting plans. Here’s how many trailers each would cut by 2021 under each plan. Plan 2a Cuts 54 trailers, leaves 7: 2 at Belmont Elementary 2 at Featherstone Elementary 1 at Marumsco Hills Elementary 2 at Occoquan Elementary
Plan 3 Cuts 53 trailers, leaves 8: 2 at Belmont Elementary 2 at Featherstone Elementary 1 at Marumsco Hills Elementary 2 at Occoquan Elementary 1 at Penn Elementary
Plan 3a Cuts 54 trailers, leaves 7: 2 at Belmont Elementary 2 at Featherstone Elementary 1 at Marumsco Hills Elementary 2 at Occoquan Elementary
two trailers during its first year. School Board Vice Chairman Justin Wilk (Potomac) said he was troubled by the “shear number of schools that would remain overcrowded,” especially Occoquan and Rockledge. Occoquan Elementary would be left with eight trailers under Jessie, Raulston and Williams’ plans and six trailers under Lateef’s. Rockledge Elementary would be left with six trailers under Jessie, Raulston and Williams’ plans but

none under Lateef’s. Lateef said he hoped the school board could consider a compromise plan – taking the best from all six proposals – when it convenes tonight. The school board meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 16 at the Edward L. Kelly Leadership Building, 14715 Bristow Road in Manassas. Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com
Changes could make room for projects aimed at cutting trailers ENROLLMENT, from page 1 expects about 98,000 students will attend county schools in 2028, down 5,900 students from last year’s 10year estimate, Cline said. The numbers are driving changes in the school division’s 10-year CIP, which the school board will update as part of its budget discussions this spring. The board is scheduled to take a final vote on revisions to the plan on March 20.
Trailer plan added
The lower-than-expected enrollment numbers are good news for those concerned about classroom trailers and school overcrowding. Because of slower growth, the CIP now includes the two additional elementary schools in eastern Prince William as well as middle-school additions roughly equivalent to 40 percent of a new middle school. The CIP calls for one additional elementary school in the “Cardinal [Drive] area” to open in 2025 and another to open in the southern stretch of the U.S. 1 corridor – perhaps in the vicinity of Dumfries or Triangle – by 2027, Cline said. On the middle school level, the plan proposes pushing back a new
middle school planned for western Prince William County to sometime beyond 2028. Instead, the plan calls for 11-classroom additions at three western county middle schools: Bull Run, Gainesville and Marsteller, by 2022. The plan also calls for another 24 middle school classes to be added at some other middle school (the plan doesn’t say where) by 2028. The CIP still calls for a 14th high school to be built within the next 10 years, but pushes off a 15th high school, which had been included in last year’s CIP. The school division’s 13th high school is currently under construction in western Prince William County and scheduled to open in 2021. The plan pegs the total cost of new schools and additions related to eliminating the trailers at $174 million, or about $30 million more than the most recent estimate of about $143 million. But Cline called the figure a “snapshot in time” price tag, noting the two elementary schools and middle school additions would be paid for over a stretch of years.
New auxiliary gyms for GarField, Woodbridge high schools
Also new to the plan are some renovations and additions prioritized by
the school division’s infrastructure task force, a group of volunteers who spent the past two years evaluating the ways in which older elementary, middle and high schools fall short of newer school models in terms of classroom space and other facilities. Cline added auxiliary gymnasiums at Woodbridge and Gar-Field high schools to the CIP to mitigate a current lack of gymnasium space at both schools. While most high schools have the equivalent of three full basketball courts of gymnasium space to accommodate various athletic teams and physical-education classes, GarField and Woodbridge have only one full-sized gym, Cline said. The new CIP calls for building $4.25 million auxiliary gyms onto both schools as soon as possible. If the school board approves the CIP, construction on both gyms could begin almost immediately and be complete in about 18 months, Cline said. “They both need [the gyms],” Cline said. “And they need them now.” The CIP also calls for continuing security-related upgrades at schools where they currently fall short as well as a detailed plan for several school “renewals” and infrastructure renovations.
News that the new auxiliary gyms are being considered by the school board came as a welcome surprise to Woodbridge High School parent Kate Olson Flynn, who has led “Parents Who Care about Schools in Prince William County,” a group of parents who have worked for about two years to raise awareness about lacking facilities at Woodbridge High School. Flynn said its good news the schools’ lack of sufficient gymnasium space is getting serious consideration. But she and other parents continue to advocate for Woodbridge High to be replaced with a new school. Flynn noted that the infrastructure task force has called for renewals to Woodbridge, Gar-Field, Stonewall Jackson and Osbourn Park high schools estimated to cost between $25 and $37 million each. “Once you spend that much fixing up an old high school, doesn’t it make sense to build a new one?” Flynn said. The school board will continue its discussions on the CIP and the overall budget for the 2019-2020 school year in February. Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com

Capital News Service
RICHMOND — Flanked by a bipartisan group of state legislators, Gov. Ralph Northam announced plans Tuesday to move forward with legislation that would use tolls to fund improvements on Interstate 81. I-81 spans 325 miles across western Virginia, connects six metro areas and links 30 institutions of higher education. The program, known as the I-81 Corridor Improvement Fund, would be supported by tolls along the expanse of the interstate. Owners of cars and small trucks would be able to purchase an annual pass for a fixed yearly fee of $30. The money would create a dedicated funding source for I-81 improvements, as outlined in a Virginia Department of Transportation plan. The fixes would add a third lane in both directions in areas such as Winchester, Harrisonburg, Staunton and Roanoke. Other improvements would widen shoulders and make curves safer. The plan also calls for operational upgrades to improve traffic flow, especially after a crash, through technology such as traffic cameras and electronic signs to warn drivers of impending backups. The work could be finished in seven to 10 years, officials said. Northam said I-81 has a “clear safety problem,” with an average of about 2,000 crashes annually, including 45 vehicular accidents that took more than four hours to clear. The chief patrons of the legislation are Sens. Mark Obenshain, R-26th, of Rockingham, and Charles Carrico, R-40th, of Grayson. Three other legislators — all Republicans with districts intersected by I-81 — are also sponsoring the proposal: Sen. Emmett Hanger, R-24th, of Augusta, Sen. Jill Vogel, R-27th, of Fauquier, and Del. Richard Bell, R-20th, of Staunton. A yearlong study by the Commonwealth Transportation Board concluded that the I-81 corridor needs $2.2 billion of improvements. The governor said these changes would prevent 450 crashes each year. Other interstates currently have dedicated funding sources. Regional taxes and tolls are used to fund improvements to those roadways, the governor said. Members of Virginia’s congressional delegation believe that I-81 needs an additional $2 billion in improvements beyond those proposed by state officials, Landes said. The additional improvements would require funding from the federal government, he said. “It’s an interstate system, not an ‘intra-state’ system,” Landes said. The I-81 Corridor Improvement Plan can be found at www.va81corridor.org

Tolls on I-81? Proceed with caution, please Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam announced a plan Jan. 8 to add tolls on the I-81 corridor between Winchester and Bristol to fund a $2.2 billion in improvements for the heavily traveled interstate. Owners of small trucks and automobiles would be able to purchase an annual unlimited pass for a fixed $30 fee under his proposal. The idea for the tolls is to feed a dedicated “I-81 Corridor Improvement Fund” to fund the upgrades along the 325-mile stretch of roadway, which include adding a third lane in high-traffic areas, widening shoulders, making curves safer and adding technology to improve traffic flow. Virginia is also looking at federal money to supplement the toll revenue. Love them or hate them, the political allure of tolling is obvious. Easing or eliminating the need to raise taxes to fund expensive road improvements while shifting the cost to those who most directly use the interstates sits well with some constituents, particularly those who live in other parts of the state. Tolls also generate income from visitors and long-haul truckers who otherwise might bring little revenue to the region. Coupled with
low-cost annual passes for locals, tolls would effectively raise money from those who most benefit from improvements to the north-south route. Regional taxes and tolls have become a favorite way to fund road improvements. Northern Virginians are familiar with this strategy, which is already in practice on Interstates 95 and 66. The I-95 tolls, in place since 2014, operate in a public-private partnership with Transurban, an Australian company that describes itself as “one of the world's largest toll-road operators.” While outsourcing toll operations is not unique, Virginia’s arrangement on the I-95 corridor has thrown up a bit of a roadblock – and thus offers a cautionary tale. While Prince William County leaders would like to ease a bottleneck on I-95’s non-tolled lanes near the Occoquan bridge – perhaps by opening a shoulder lane to traffic -the state would need to compensate Transurban for the toll revenue lost if traffic moves more quickly in the “free” lanes. Local politicians are asking the governor to renegotiate the Transurban contract for that purpose, but the idea of a governor having to go
hat-in-hand to a private company to ask permission to make a simple road improvement to alleviate a traffic headache pushes the boundaries of acceptability. The quite possible outcome of his either not succeeding – or having to fork over tens of millions to reach an agreement – might be worse. As President George W. Bush was fond of telling local politicians: Fix the potholes. For all the infrastructure talk from President Donald Trump during his campaign, for a variety of reasons, little has materialized. Perhaps it is our proximity to Washington that encourages a culture of looking to someone else to pay for what we need and want. The simple fact is, nothing comes for free.
No one is talking about a mix of tolled express lanes and free lanes on I-81. Still, the I-95 experience illuminates a downside of public-private tolling partnerships. There are limits to giving up self-determination to a third party whose only interest is income. Public government may be far from perfect, but at least the people retain control. Whether for I-95 or I-81, we encourage the governor and Virginia lawmakers to work together to find ways to raise money for road improvements that are truly good for taxpayers now and in the years to come. The people will feel the repercussions of those arrangements long after the politicians have moved on to their next jobs or into retirement.
New budget to include ‘step’ and cost-of-living raises for teachers, staff Happy New Year! As we approach the mid-point of the 2018-19 school year, I want to thank all our teachers, staff, parents and community for the great successes we have already achieved this year. I have visited nearly 50 of our schools since August, and I have been impressed with the work I have seen in classrooms in every school I have had the opportunity to visit. I am also thrilled that 100 percent of our schools are accredited, and that our on-time graduation rate continues to rise to a high of 92.1 percent. That’s nearly 10 percent over where we were a decade ago. This is the result of the incredible hard work of our staff, who provide Prince William students with a world-class education. We recognize that we have many opportunities for further improvement, and much to do in order to sustain the gains we have made. For example, last year we conducted an outside audit of special education, and we are making progress this year on the recommendations based on priorities developed with
STEVE WALTS Superintendent Prince William Public Schools pwcssupt@pwcs.edu @superpwcs on twitter input from numerous stakeholders, including the Special Education Advisory Committee. We have also continued to support the Regional School for Special Education, despite millions in state funding reductions. Also, my top budget priorities for next school year focus on ensuring continued, and even greater, student success. When considering our budget, it is important to recognize that Prince William County Schools receives the lowest per-pupil allocation of any school system in the Washington, D.C. area (with the exception of Manassas Park). PWCS receives nearly $4,000 less per student than Fairfax County
schools; $2,600 less than Loudoun County, and nearly $8,000 less than Arlington County. If Prince William schools’ funding were comparable to Fairfax County schools, it would equate to $360 million more in funding annually for students and teachers. Recognizing our fiscal limitations, I am still committed to presenting my proposed Fiscal Year 2020 budget to the school board on Feb. 6, focused on continuing our support for special education along with the following priorities: Teacher and employee pay: Supporting our talented teachers, administrators and staff by providing a step increase for all eligible employees in addition to a cost-ofliving increase. Mental health: Mental health concerns continue for our students and sometimes our staff. I will recommend additional mental health supports for our students and staff, and I will continue to advocate directly with lawmakers in Richmond. Career and technical education and high school programming: We want to ensure we are preparing stu-
dents for life beyond PWCS. This may include college or entry directly into the workforce. I believe that it is critical that we fund Career and Technical Education programs that provide the 21st century skills necessary to thrive in the digital economy, while continuing to expand high school course offerings. Class size: Recognizing the importance of engaged students and balanced teacher workload, we will propose sustaining the investments we have made in reducing class sizes. Pre-kindergarten: Students succeed when they start with a foundation of strong early education, and so I believe it is critical that we continue funding pre-k programs that provide students with that chance from day one. I thank you for your continued support and partnerships as we work together to ensure every student in Prince William County has a worldclass education. The writer is superintendent of Prince William County Public Schools.

How the shutdown affects my family – and yours By Maggie Hansford The government shutdown doesn’t just impact my family. It also impacts yours. My husband is furloughed due to the shutdown and missed his paycheck this weekend. We are not alone. More than 30,000 families in Virginia are missing paychecks and more than 800,000 families are impacted nationwide. My brother is a border patrol agent working on the border of Arizona and Mexico. He and my sisterin-law, who is a customs agent, are both working without pay. My husband is an attorney for
the Department of Justice. He is the main provider for our family. Every withheld paycheck requires our family to dig deeper into savings and rely on my income as a teacher in Prince William County, which unfortunately pays the lowest average teacher salary in Northern Virginia. Fortunately, we do not live paycheck to paycheck, but we live close enough to be scared for our family’s financial future. We, like most federal employees, don’t have the luxury of waiting for eventual back pay. Our bills require prompt payment. Federal employees and their families are not asking for handouts.
We want to work and be paid for our work. Playing partisan politics on the backs of hardworking federal employees is not the answer. Our president says he feels strongly about national security. Yet he allows FBI agents, border patrol agents, customs agents, prison guards, secret service, Coast Guard, DEA and ATF employees to all work without pay or stay home. For an administration that claims to support federal law-enforcement employees, they are being treated as if they are not essential to our nation’s security. My family is fortunate to have savings, but with no end to the shutdown
in sight, we have stopped going out to eat, limited spending on groceries and are not making large purchases. For the sake of our local economy, I ask that we come together as a community and ask our elected officials, including our representatives and senators, to support federal employees and end this unnecessary shutdown. We must urge our elected officials to stop playing partisan games on the backs of our federal employees. The writer is a Prince William County speech teacher and a Democratic candidate for the Brentsville District seat on the Prince William Board of Supervisors.
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF A PETITION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR APPROVAL OF RATE ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE: RIDER E, FOR RECOVERY OF COSTS INCURRED TO COMPLY WITH STATE AND FEDERAL ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS CASE NO. PUR-2018-00195 •Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion”) has applied for approval of a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider E, for recovery of costs incurred to comply with state and federal environmental regulations. •Dominion requests approval of a total revenue requirement of approximately $113,650,000 for its 2019 Rider E. According to Dominion, this amount would increase the bill of a typical residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by $2.15. •The Commission will hear the case on June 11, 2019. •Further information about this case is available on the SCC website at: http://www.scc.virginia.gov/case. On December 14, 2018, pursuant to § 56-585.1 A 5 e of the Code of Virginia and the State Corporation Commission’s (“Commission”) Rules Governing Utility Rate Applications and Annual Informational Filings, Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion” or “Company”) filed with the Commission a petition (“Petition”) for approval of a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider E, for the recovery of costs incurred to comply with state and federal environmental regulations. According to the Petition, the Company seeks cost recovery for certain environmental projects (collectively, “Environmental Projects”) located at the Company’s Chesterfield Power Station, Clover Power Station and Mt. Storm Power Station (collectively, “Power Stations”). According to the Company, the Environmental Projects are required for the Company to comply with the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) “Hazardous and Solid Waste Management System; Disposal of Coal Combustion Residuals From Electric Utilities; Final Rule” (“CCR Rule”). The Company states that to comply with the CCR Rule, it is required to close or retrofit certain coal ash ponds and certain water treatment basins and flue gas desulfurization sludge ponds that contain coal ash at its coal-fired power stations. In addition, the Company asserts that compliance with the EPA’s Steam Electric Power Generating Effluent Guidelines is also a driver of certain of the Environmental Projects. The Company seeks recovery of three general categories of costs: (i) actual costs associated with closure of existing assets (such as a coal ash pond) at the Power Stations; (ii) actual and projected costs associated with newly constructed assets necessary to allow the Power Stations to continue to operate in compliance with environmental laws and regulations; and (iii) actual and projected costs associated with Asset Retirement Obligations for the newly constructed assets. In this proceeding, Dominion asks the Commission to approve Rider E for the rate year beginning November 1, 2019, and ending October 31, 2020 (“2019 Rate Year”). The Company states that the three components of the revenue requirement are the Projected Cost Recovery Factor, the Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (“AFUDC”) Cost Recovery Factor and the Actual Cost True-Up Factor. The Company requests a Projected Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement of $94,612,000, an AFUDC Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement of $19,038,000, and an Actual Cost True Up Factor revenue requirement of $0. Thus, the Company proposes a total revenue requirement of $113,650,000 for service rendered during the 2019 Rate Year. The Company indicates that included in this revenue requirement is the amortization over the 2019 Rate Year of certain deferred costs (including financing costs) (“Deferral Balance”) incurred prior to the beginning of the 2019 Rate Year. The Company states that the 2019 Rate Year revenue requirement assuming a three-year or five-year amortization of the Deferral Balance would be $62,628,000 and $52,424,000, respectively. For purposes of calculating the revenue requirement in this case, Dominion states that it utilized a rate of return on common equity of 9.2%, which was approved by the Commission in its Final Order in Case No. PUR-2017-00038. Dominion proposes that Rider E be effective for usage on and after November 1, 2019. If the proposed Rider E for the 2019 Rate Year is approved, the impact on customer bills would depend on the customer’s rate schedule and usage. According to Dominion, implementation of its proposed Rider E on November 1, 2019, would increase the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by approximately $2.15. The Company states that, alternatively, the lower revenue requirements assuming a three-year or five-year amortization of the Deferral Balance would result in a monthly bill increase for a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month of approximately $1.18 or $0.99, respectively. Interested persons are encouraged to review the Petition and supporting documents for the details of these and other proposals. TAKE NOTICE that the Commission may apportion revenues among customer classes and/or design rates in a manner differing from that shown in the Petition and supporting documents and thus may adopt rates that differ from those appearing in the Company’s Petition and supporting documents. The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Hearing that, among other things, scheduled a public hearing on June 11, 2019, at 10 a.m., in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, to receive testimony from members of the public and evidence related to the Petition from the Company, any respondents, and the Commission’s Staff.

Eagles’ boys co-lead in Cedar Run District By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer
That’s a stretch of more than 180 games. “You expect the aura of being at home to help some of those go in,” fifth-year coach Randall Bills said of the Bobcats’ jumpers. “Tonight it just seemed like everybody was off.” The Eagles’ defense certainly played a role in Battlefield’s ineffective shooting. They often eliminated Battlefield’s ability to drive toward the rim – the Bobcats’ strength – and then rebounded with aggression to limit Battlefield to few second-chance points. “I was very proud of our rotation defensively,” Osbourn coach Rocky Carter said. “They did a fantastic job. “Those kids bust their tail,” he said. “My god, they do. I am so very blessed.”
Osbourn and Patriot were scheduled to play for the district lead Tuesday after Prince William Times deadlines
Jordan Radford caught the ball in the southwest corner of Battlefield’s gym Friday with three seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. The open 3-pointer couldn’t help his Bobcats beat the Osbourn Eagles, but it could at least prove that Battlefield’s shooters weren’t cursed. So he set his feet, jumped and released the ball. But that shot seemed predestined to ricochet off the rim, and it did exactly that as the final buzzer sounded for a 42-26 Osbourn boys victory. The Eagles have won low-scoring games all season, but this score was remarkable, and its composition was peculiar. Battlefield did not make a single jump shot the entire night, going 0-for-29 to score fewer than 42 points in a game for the first time since at least the 2011-12 season, if ever.
See OSBOURN, Page 10
Adaija Bender scored a season-high 24 points Friday as part of the Woodbridge Vikings’ best offensive performance of the girls basketball season during an 86-37 victory at home over Freedom. She made 11 of 15 field goals to help them take a 21-17 lead in the first quarter and a 48-25 advantage at halftime before finishing the third period with a 63-33 lead. So Woodbridge remained undefeated in the Cardinal District at 5-0 with a 12-1 overall record while the Eagles fell to 5-14 and 2-3. Aaliyah Pitts added 14 points with 13 each from Vanessa Laumbach and Camryn Platt-Morris (5-for-8) while Taelor Willard had 11. Pitts also had 12 rebounds, seven assists and five steals, while Laumbach had two blocks. Laumbach and Bender also had eight rebounds each, while Willard had nine assists, Rayne Williams had four and Laumbach had three. Platt-Morris added six of the Vikings’ 22 steals while Bender had four and Willard had three. So Woodbridge averages an impressive 11.9 steals per game this season.

Panthers’ boys lead In Cardinal District
Raiders’ girls lead in Cardinal District
Three Potomac players produced personal season-highs in different statistical categories Jan. 8 to help the Panthers beat Colgan’s boys basketball team 65-51 at home in Dumfries. Davion Morris-Dockery finished with season-highs of 10 points and nine rebounds, while Ray Woods had a season-best five steals and Jakhai Taylor had a high of three blocks. So the Panthers remain undefeated at 5-0 with an overall record of 10-4. The Sharks, meanwhile, fell to 1-11 and 0-4. Anthony Jackson led the Panthers with 15 points, Kyle Honore had eight, Tyrell Harris had seven and Manny White had six, while Taylor had five rebounds. Honore also had four assists and Woods had three.
The Osbourn Park Yellow Jackets’ 12-game winning streak in Cedar Run District play ended Friday with Stonewall Jackson’s girls basketball team beating them 47-39. The Yellow Jackets hadn’t lost to a district opponent since the end of the 2016-17 season, but Stonewall outscored them 25-16 in the second half Friday. So OP’s 2018-19 record fell to 11-4 overall and 2-1 in the district while the Raiders improved to 12-3 and 4-0. Imani Burke made a season-high 8 of 10 free throws for a game-high 19 points while Hannah Williams had 15 points with five each from Reina Washington and Nataezja Gaskins. Simone Jefferson and Williams added eight rebounds each with four from Washington. For Osbourn Park, Jo Raflo had 16 points while Shay Hagans had 12.

How to feel better when winter colds strike By Roxanna Beebe-Center Contributing Writer
A cough in the middle of cold season strikes fear in the hearts of cubicle-mates like the first volley in a battle. Co-workers cringe and watch – holding their collective breath (which turns out is a reasonable, if not sustainable, defense) – as millions of germs launch themselves into the air, looking for somebody else to infect. A tangle of old wives’ tales and home remedies get tossed around. Whether it’s your great-grandmother’s special brew – Vick’s VapoRub and fresh ginger -- or the hot whiskey and lemon “cure” your father swears by, how do we know what to believe? Humans have often been afraid of the elements, but we’ve often been wrong. For instance, we’re warned that the common cold comes from, well, the cold. Moms and grandmoms tell the kids not to go outside without their hats and never to sit in drafts. And everyone knows the old rule about not going outside with wet hair. In truth, doctors reassure us that bad weather is not the cause of the common cold, though it can make you miserable and slightly more susceptible to catching a virus. There is some evidence that cold weather can tamper with the immune system’s ability to fight a cold. Like your elders warned, if you have been exposed to a cold virus and are outside underdressed or with wet hair, you might be more prone to getting sick. What causes the common cold are rhinoviruses or coronaviruses, say experts. And a virus can only be transmitted when a person comes in contact with it, by being sneezed on or touching something someone sick has touched. So what they told you about keeping your hands to yourselves turns out to be quite true. There’s no “cure” for the common cold, explains Dr. Charles Stein, pediatrician at Wellspring Health Services. Like any grandma would, Stein prescribes hot liquids – tea, soup, warm water with lemon – to relieve cold symptoms. Hot liquids “don’t help you get over it, but they may help ease your symp-

Going out without a hat? Brace yourself for a cold reception from your mom. toms. So you may feel better. They may help your congestion and things like that. “But I don’t know anything that will make the cold just go away. Your body’s immune system fights that off, and that’s how you get over it,” he said. The only realistic thing you can do for a cold, according to Stein, is run a humidifier in your room at night. Using nasal saline products can be helpful. And of course, sleep and consuming lots of fluids is essential, he said. The main reason not to go out in winter without a hat? Not because you’ll catch cold, but you’ll be cold, Stein maintains.
Other winter health myths, debunked • The old aphorism “starve a fever, feed a cold” is nonsense. With rare exception, one of the best things to do when you have either is to maintain a regular diet. Even though you may not feel like eating, your body actually requires more calories when you’re sick to heal properly and quickly. • You need sunblock, even in winter. No matter what the weather is like, you should be diligent about applying sun protection all year round. Use a broad spectrum sunscreen on exposed areas of skin if you’re going to be outside for long, even in winter.
Eating disorder treatment center opens in Fairfax Clementine Twin Lakes, an accredited treatment program exclusively for adolescent girls struggling with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, or exercise addiction has opened in Clifton. The Fairfax County center’s evidence-based process helps each adolescent replace her eating disorder with healthy skills and habits and to develop a sense of her own individuality, according to a news release.
“Eating disorders are devastating from both a psychological and medical perspective,” said Dr. Joel Jahraus, a Clementine physician, who has cared for the medical complications of children, adolescent and adults with eating disorders for more than 22 years. “Serious growth and development issues may occur with eating disorders, and research and shown early intervention in treating eating disorders give patients a greater
chance of permanent recovery.” The National Eating Disorders Association reports that eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental health illness. Eating disorders are unique among mental health disorders in that they manifest in physical health complications, which can lead to serious and life-threatening illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, organ failure and even death if not treated. Anorexia nervosa is the third
most-common chronic illness among adolescents. Young women who suffer from this illness have a mortality rate that is 12 times higher than average, making it the mental health illness with the highest premature mortality rate. Located in a private residential area, Clementine provides personalized and medically sophisticated care for girls ages 11-17.

‘Born at the Bottom of the Ship’ exhibit to open in Manassas The “Born at the Bottom of the Ship” exhibit by James and Zsudayka Terrell will run Jan. 31 through March 4 at the Center for the Arts, 9419 Battle St., Manassas. A reception will be held from 6-8 p.m. Feb. 9. Receptions are free and open to the public. “Born at the Bottom of the Ship” investigates the identity of the descendants of Africans brought to America, and how that identity still exists in the new tribe - blacks, who are uniquely African-American while also being considered neither. James and Zsudayka Terrell address this disconnect by creating their own collection of portraits that feature traditional African references incorporated within modernity. Their collection is a visual exploration of who African-Americans are as a new culture, community, and tribe. Zsudayka Terrell’s works highlight the black woman’s experience in America using linear patterns reminiscent of fabric stitching and touches of realism. Her patterns also consume the background of most of her paintings, entrancing the viewer in a mash of color and lively, flowing brushwork, according to a news release. James Terrell’s paintings often large blocks of color, bold outlines, and detailed patterns to create his figures, which are mostly male. A few of his paintings also reference his passion for music with the inclusion of musical instruments. James Terrell and Zsudayka Terrell are a husband and wife team of visual artists living in Washington, D.C. For more information, visit center-for-thearts.org.

Quasebarth, 87, retired CEO of Atlas Machine and Iron Works, Inc., formerly located in Gainesville, Virginia, was dedicated to an active life of service through his leadership in industry and community organizations. He died quietly at his residence at the age of 87. Mr. Quasebarth was born in Washington, D.C., grew up in Alexandria and Bethesda, and graduated from Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School. In 1949, he began his career with Atlas Machine & Iron Works, founded by his father in 1931. Following his service in the Coast Guard, he continued his work at Atlas, as an estimator, production manager, and president. He served as Chairman and CEO from 1975 until his retirement in 1998. Atlas engineered, fabricated, and constructed heavy metal weldments for steel bridges, complex multi-story buildings, and nuclear power plants. Notable achievements include the construction of the Netherlands Carillon near Arlington National Cemetery, the original control tower at Dulles International Airport, the FBI Building in Washington D.C., and many highway and interstate bridges. Participation in the construction of the World Trade Center was a hallmark of Mr. Quasebarth’s career, and a source of pride to Atlas’ many highly qualified engineers and steel workers. Mr. Quasebarth served many years as a Director and Chair of the American Welding Institute, and of the American Institute of Steel Construction, and as a counselor to the American Welding Society. He was also an active member of the Young Presidents’ Organization, a Director of Ross Industries, the National Capital Bank, and the C.M. Russell Museum in Montana, and a member of the Virginia State Bar Disciplinary Board. Charming everyone with the lively twinkle of his blue eyes, Mr. Quasebarth was known for his sense of adventure and his story-telling. He married his loving wife, Elaine (nee Carpenter) in 1954, and together they raised their family in Nokesville, Virginia. Mr. Quasebarth was a parishioner of St. John’s Catholic Church, in Warrenton, Virginia where he served as the president of the PTA when his children were young. In his last years, Mr. Quasebarth was an active advocate for residents at The Virginian, the retirement community where he lived, serving as resident association treasurer and on the finance committee. Mr. Quasebarth is survived by his wife, Elaine C. Quasebarth; children Elise Quasebarth, Eric Anderson, Christopher Quasebarth, Kurt Quasebarth, and Gretchen Cassidy, and their wonderful spouses; and eight beautiful grandchildren, Elexa, Dashiell, Jasper, Griffin, Madeline, Hollis, Eleanor, and Sylvia. He was predeceased by infant son, Karl; a brother, Norman A. Quasebarth, Jr.; and his parents, Hilma and Norman A. Quasebarth, Sr. A funeral mass will be held at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 271 Winchester Street, Warrenton, Virginia, on February 2, 2019, at 1:00 p.m. Inurnment will be at Arlington National Cemetery at a future date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Cure Alzheimer’s Fund,
