County opens Potomac Shores Middle 3-story school built to facilitate project-based learning

Times Staff Writer

Potomac Shores Middle School is ready for the new school year and is expecting 98% of its 1,060 students to attend school in person – including nearly 100 more students than were initially anticipated.

That’s according to Principal Joe Murgo, who says the new middle school is getting an influx

masks, such as in the lunchroom.

The school division also recently clarified when students and staff will have to quarantine due to COVID-19 cases; unvaccinated students and staff will have to quarantine as a result of an exposure in most instances -- unless they have remained masked and maintained at least 3 feet of distance from the person being treated as having COVID-19. Conversely, vaccinated students and staff will not have to quarantine in most instances unless they are showing symptoms of COVID-19.

In the last 10 years, Prince William County added about 80,000 new residents, keeping its place as the second most populous county and the most diverse county in the commonwealth of Virginia, according to 2020 United States Census data released on Aug. 12.

“We’re continuing to grow pretty quickly and we’re seeing a continued increase in diversity, and a decrease in the non-Hispanic white population across almost all areas of the county,” Brian Engelmann, Prince William County’s demographer, said in an interview with Prince William Times on Monday, Aug. 16.

The U.S. Census is conducted once every 10 years to count every resident in the United States. The data collected by the census is used to determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to adjust or redraw electoral districts based on where populations have increased or decreased.

The results of the census also inform decisions about allocating hundreds of billions of dollars in federal funding to communities across the country—for hospitals, fire departments, schools, roads and other critical programs and services, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

of students, mostly from military-connected families who are purchasing or building homes in Potomac Shores, one of the largest newer communities in eastern Prince William.

The new students are an early sign of the draw of the county’s 17th middle school – one of two new schools opening in Prince William this year.

The county is also opening its 13th traditional high school – Gainesville High School – near Jiffy Lube Live.

Schools update safety protocols as COVID-19 cases rise

By Cher Muzyk

Contributing Writer

More than 60% of Prince William County students between the ages of 12 and 17 have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine ahead of the start of the new school year, which begins on Monday, Aug. 23.

Meanwhile, the school division is responding to concerns about rising COVID-19 rates by clarifying school safety protocols that now include the goal of maintaining 3 feet of distance between students; mandating near universal mask use, and minimizing time that students are not wearing

COVID-19 cases still ‘surging’ in Prince William; 28 hospitalized locally in the past week Staff Reports The Prince William Health District is one of 33 around the state in which COVID-19 cases were surging last week, with hospitalizations as well as emergency room and urgent care visits for COVID-19-like symptoms all climbing, according to the Virginia Department of Health.

Five local residents ages 19 and under have been released from the hospital during the past week due to bouts with COVID-19, according to VDH data. That includes three kids ages 9 and under and two between the ages of 10 and 19. That’s the highest one-week total of hospitalizations reported among residents ages 19 and under in at least a year.

Virginia is now in its fourth wave of the pandemic and dealing with the Delta variant, which the University of Virginia’s Biocomplexity Institute says is a “meaner virus” than earlier strains. The Delta variant “is causing a swell of new cases and hospitalizations in Virginia,” the institute says in its latest report, released Friday, Aug. 13.

Research from Scotland found the Delta variant is almost twice as likely to cause hospitalization as earlier strains of the coronavirus, while research from Canada found a fourfold increase in the need for intensive care among those infected, the report said.

The Delta variant also seems to prolong illness, with data from Singapore showing that those infected with Delta may, on average, be ill and infectious for five days longer than those infected with other strains, the report says.

“Delta is now the dominant strain in Virginia. This ongoing surge may cause significant morbidity and mortality, with the brunt of both [falling] on the unvaccinated,” the report says.

Prince William still in the red zone

Prince William County is still in the high range – or red zone – for community transmission of the coronavirus, but cases are leveling off. The local health district was averaging 78 cases a day as of late last week, up from 75 one week ago.

The local health district reported 111.4 cases per 100,000 residents over the last seven days as of Monday, Aug. 16, up from 105 last week.

Anything over 100 is in the high or red zone, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The state is reporting an even higher rate of infection per capita with a seven-day case count of 154 per 100,000 residents. Virginia reported more than 2,000 new COVID-19 infections for three days straight late last week, levels not seen since earlier this spring, before the vaccine was widely available.

The Prince William Health District added about 600 new cases over

the past week, with about 25% of them among residents ages 19 and under. Kids ages 9 and under reported 62 new cases, about 10% of the total, while kids and teens ages 10 to 19 reported 97. Both numbers are at their highest since early May. Residents in their 20s reported the most new cases with 121. They were followed by residents in their 30s, who reported 102 new cases.

Hospitalizations

In addition to the five recent hospitalizations involving kids and teens ages 19 and under, the local health district reported hospitalizations in every other age group. Residents in their 50s reported the most hospitalizations last week, with 12.

As of Monday, Aug. 16, a total of 2,000 residents of the Prince William Health District have been hospitalized due to COVID-19 since the pandemic began. The total includes 26 local kids and teens ages 9 and under; 31 young residents between the ages of 10 and 19; 122 residents in their 20s; 206 in their 30s; 336 in their 40s; 416 in their 50s; 375 in their 60s; 284 in their 70s; and 180 ages 80 and up, according to VDH data.

Across the state, hospitalizations rose to 1,137 as of Monday, Aug. 16, a 45% increase over the past seven days.

Northern Virginia, where vaccination rates are higher, is faring better in terms of hospitalizations than other regions of the state. The state’s most populous region reported 145 people hospitalized for COVID-19 as of Saturday, Aug. 14, compared to 296 reported in Eastern Virginia.

Emergency room, urgent care visits for COVID-19-like symptoms on the rise

More local residents sought treatment for COVID-19-like symptoms at both emergency rooms and urgent care clinics during the first week of August than they had during the last week of July, according to VDH data.

Visits to emergency rooms in the Prince William Health District were up 56% during the week that ended on Aug. 7 compared to the week ending on July 31. Meanwhile, visits to local urgent cares for COVID-19like symptoms were up about 47% during the same time period, according to VDH.

No new local deaths since Aug. 1

Despite the rise in hospitalizations, the local health district, which includes the county, Manassas and Manassas Park, has yet to report a death in the month of August. But deaths are often reported weeks after they occur as each fatality is reviewed to determine whether the fatality can be attributed to COVID-19.

Breakthrough cases remain low, less severe

The COVID-19 vaccines remain “highly protective against severe illness and death,” the UVA Biocom-

Prince William Health District weekly COVID-19 report 53,545 Cases (Up 636) 2,013 Hospitalizations (Up 35) 573 Deaths (No change) 6.7% Percent-positivity rate (Down from 6.9%)

plexity Institute says, citing research from the Mayo Clinic that found that while breakthrough cases can occur more frequently with Delta, the vaccines are “still very effective in protecting against hospitalization and severe illness.”

In Virginia, more than 97% of recent hospitalizations and 98% of recent deaths have been among those who were not fully vaccinated, according to the UVA Biocomplexity Institute’s latest report.

“Studies have also shown that in general, those who are infected after vaccination have lower viral loads, fewer symptoms and clear the infection a few days sooner than those who were not vaccinated,” the report states. “The vaccines also seem to produce a stronger antibody response against the Delta variant than is found in those with immunity gained from a prior infection.”

“The most important thing residents can do for their own health is to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

Even the first dose of two-dose vaccines offers some protection,” the report states.

It’s likely too late, however, for Virginia and Prince William Coun-

ty to escape a “significant surge” in COVID-19 cases this fall, however, even if the state did reach an 85% vaccination rate by Labor Day, the report says.

Indeed, the UVA Biocomplexity Institute’s worst-case scenario predicts that Virginia will reach 122 cases per 100,000 residents – up from the current 25 cases per 100,000 residents – during the week ending Sept. 12.

Prince William County, meanwhile, could reach a peak of more than 1,948 weekly cases – up from the current 600 -- as soon as Oct. 10, according to VDH projections.

“It is simply too late for new vaccinations to bend the curve for September. Furthermore, infected vaccinated individuals can still spread the infection to others. Simply put, vaccines alone are not enough,” the report said. “To protect those around you, we urge everyone -- vaccinated and unvaccinated -- to continue preventive measures, including social distancing and indoor mask wearing. If we can reduce the transmission rate by 20% … we could potentially prevent thousands of cases across Virginia.”

Kline property gets a fresh look – with more density

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

A plan to develop about 100 acres of farmland near Manassas with homes and commercial development is getting a new look as Prince William County updates its comprehensive plan – and it could include taller buildings and more homes than initially planned.

Kline Farm, a former dairy farm with distinctive silos, a white farmhouse and a red barn, sits at the corner of Liberia Avenue and Prince William Parkway. A plan from Stanley Martin Homes to develop the property with about 250 homes and 145,000 square feet of commercial space has been in the works for nearly five years but has been delayed because of opposition from area residents.

The plan also includes 24 acres of land reserved for a potential new elementary school site or a park and a CVS pharmacy.

A new proposal submitted by the real estate developer in May, however, would increase the number of homes that could be built on the property and lower the amount of commercial retail and office space, while retaining the plan for a school or park. It would also allow buildings up to eight stories high on some parts of the property, according to the company’s comprehensive plan application submitted to the county.

A spokesman for the developer said it is unlikely any eight-story buildings will be included in the plan, however. “Nobody is building

The company does not yet have any estimates for how many homes could be built on the property under the new plan. But Young said it would likely be more than the 250 homes included in the previous application.

Young added that the reduction in land allocated for commercial use could reduce the project’s estimated traffic impact.

Under the original plan, concerns were raised about morning and eve-

ning commuter traffic to and from the planned employment center.

The proposed comprehensive plan amendment would swap one of the land-use designations on the property from “community employment center” to “community mixeduse,” a new land-use designation that could allow for options like firstfloor retail shops with apartments on the second floor.

The proposed changes will be considered by the planning commission and board of county supervisors during the county’s comprehensive

plan review; the plan is being updated this year for the first time since 2010. No date has been set for a planning commission or board public hearing yet.

The new Kline proposal is one of more than 30 land-use changes -- affecting nearly 2,000 acres -- being requested throughout the county as part of the comprehensive plan update. There are also requests from dozens of property owners in the county’s rural area who are seeking higher density residential development and industrial uses for their properties. Data centers are among the industrial uses landowners are seeking.

County staffers are considering which proposals will be included in the updated comprehensive plan and have posted a map detailing those requests. Even if county officials recommend adopting those changes, the board can still reject them. And if the comprehensive plan amendment for Kline Property is adopted by the board, it will still require a board-approved rezoning at a later date.

Stanley Martin Homes will be waiting to see if its project is included in the comprehensive plan update drawn up by county planners, Young said. “We’ve put a fresh set of eyes on the project based on the changes that will be made to the comprehensive plan.”

Va. offers third COVID-19 vaccine dose to those with compromised immune systems Staff Reports Third doses of the COVID-19 vaccine became available for moderately and severely immunocompromised Virginians on Saturday, Aug. 14, according to the Virginia Department of Health.

The move came after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated its vaccination guidelines to recommend third doses of the mRNA vaccine – which include both Moderna and Pfizer -- for people who have “significantly compromised immune systems,” according to a VDH press release.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not recommended booster vaccines for the general public.

“Vaccines are readily available throughout Virginia, and vaccine providers are expected to make third doses available over the next several days as they adapt their processes,” the release said.

The FDA has not recommended second doses for those who received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, the press release said.

About 3% of the U.S. population is considered immunocompromised.

About 124,322 Virginia residents are expected to qualify for the extra doses, the VDH said.

Individuals with questions about whether they are significantly immunocompromised should consult their healthcare providers, the release said.

“This is important additional protection for people who have impaired immune systems,” said State Health Commissioner Dr. M. Norman Oliver. “As COVID-19 cases rise across Virginia and the country, everyone who is eligible should get appropriately vaccinated as soon as they can.”

Studies have shown that people with a compromised immune system can have a weak response to the standard vaccine regimen, and that a third dose is needed to strengthen immunity in these persons and protect them from serious COVID-19 complications, the release said.

Potomac Shores Middle School is opening this school year in the Potomac Shores community outside Dumfries.

County opens Potomac Shores Middle POTOMAC SHORES, from page 1 For Murgo, the extra students at Potomac Shores Middle mean a last-minute scramble to fill a few still-open teaching slots. But it’s also a sign of excitement around the opening of the new middle school, the first to open in the county since Ronald Reagan Middle opened in Haymarket in 2012.

“We’ve been moved in since late May and everything is ready,” Murgo said in an interview last week. “We’re ready for the kids, and we’re excited.”

3 stories, group learning spaces

The county used a brand-new, three-story design for the new middle school, which features collaborative learning spaces on each of its academic wings. There is a “maker space”-styled classroom as well as “extended learning areas” on each floor, Murgo said.

Maker spaces are bigger-than-usual classrooms designed for project-based learning, which will be the school’s focus, Murgo said. The idea is to replace more traditional classroom exercises like worksheets and multiple-choice tests with projects that groups of students can work on together -- to not only master the subject matter at hand but also learn important soft skills, like how to effectively communicate and collaborate with their peers.

Instead of individual student desks, the rooms feature large, sturdy tables conducive to group work. The tables have special trays for supplies; outlets for charging computers and other devices are available at each workstation. Portable, computerized

“smart boards” can be wheeled into the room if needed, Murgo said.

The idea is to get students used to working together at an early age to help them develop the skills experts say are most needed in 21st century workplaces.

“It’s going to give students those skillsets at a much earlier age than they would normally get them,” Murgo said.

Project-based learning is not unique to Potomac Shores, but the new building is different in that it’s been designed to allow such activities to happen more easily.

“What’s unique and different about Potomac Shores Middle School is that … we’re built for project-based learning,” Murgo said.

The school will also focus on “restorative practices,” which are communication and discipline strategies aimed at helping students cope with disruptive behavior and learn from their mistakes in a non-punitive way.

Thanks to a special grant, the school was able to outfit a “wellness room,” where students can spend short periods outside the classroom if they need to calm down and refocus. The room has comfortable furniture and activities geared to help redirect student behaviors, Murgo said.

Restorative practices also include strategies such as classroom discussion circles, where teachers help students talk through sensitive topics.

Murgo said he believes such activities will be especially important as students return to school amid the pandemic, as many have not attended school in person for more than a year.

“A lot of kids are probably scared

right now and not so sure about coming back to school,” he said. “So it’s really going to be important for the kids to know that we can get back to normal eventually, that we can have the kids feeling good about coming back to school.”

About 200 Potomac Shores Middle School students attended a Seahawks Camp at the school over the summer during which they reviewed writing, math, reading, social studies, science, physical education and wellness objectives and got to know each other and the new school through scavenger hunts and other activities.

Students were especially excited about the new school’s features, particularly the maker-space classrooms, Murgo said.

“They were so excited. They acted like they’ve never seen anything like it,” he said.

2nd new school for Potomac Shores

The $52.4 million new middle school sits on a 52.5-acre parcel across from John Paul the Great High School, which is also located in Potomac Shores. The community is located between Woodbridge and Dumfries, east of U.S. 1, on what has long been known as the Cherry Hill Peninsula on the shores of the Potomac River. The community is planned for more than 4,000 residential units – a mix of single-family homes, townhomes and multi-family units – as well as a future town center shopping area and Virginia Railway Express station.

The latter two features, although initially expected in 2017, have not yet come to fruition but are still planned.

Covington-Harper Elementary School opened at Potomac Shores in 2017.

Potomac Shores Middle School was built to accommodate 1,400 students and has an 800-seat auditorium, instead of a combination “café-torium.” The building also has a cafeteria, a main gymnasium and auxiliary gymnasium and an outdoor courtyard, among other features.

Murgo was hired for the top job at Potomac Middle School last year.

He’s been a teacher and administrator with Prince William County schools for 18 years and previously served as principal of Ronald Reagan Middle School. He also served as assistant principal at Saunders Middle School and an administrative intern at Gainesville Middle. Murgo began his career as a teacher at what is now Unity Braxton Middle School.

School Board member Justin Wilk, who represents the Potomac District, called the new school’s design “a model of the future.”

“It’s a state-of-the-art building,” Wilk said in a recent interview, noting that the design seems more sophisticated than might be found even in a new high school. “You go in there and you fell like you’re ... in a college building.”

Wilk, who taught middle school in Prince William County for six years, said the push toward project-based learning and learning across the middle school curriculum will be increasingly important for preparing students for high school, college and careers.

“And I think that cross-curricular activity is going to be facilitated more easily in a structure like Potomac Shores Middle School,” he said.

POLICE BRIEFS Police: carjacking reported at Potomac Mills

A 38-year-old man had his car stolen at gunpoint at Potomac Mills mall Monday evening, according to Prince William County police.

Officers responded to the IKEA at Potomac Mills in Woodbridge shortly after 8 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 16 to investigate a carjacking. The victim reported to police that he had parked his car in a loading area when he was approached by an unknown man, said police spokesman Officer Renee Carr in a press release.

The suspect opened the driver’s door and brandished a firearm before demanding the victim get out of the vehicle, Carr said. The suspect got into the driver’s seat and drove out of the area, Carr said.

No shots were fired and there was no physical contact between the victim and the suspect, Carr said.

Officers canvassed the area for the vehicle, a 2013 Silver Hyundai Elantra with Virginia license plate UGK-4004, but it was not found, Carr said.

Police are searching for a Black male, about 5’8,” possibly in his early 20s, with a thin build, Carr said. He was last seen wearing a black hat, a face mask and carrying a firearm.

Man shot inside vehicle in Manassas

A 23-year-old man was shot while sitting inside of a vehicle Saturday morning; the circumstances surrounding the shooting are still being

investigated, Prince William County police said.

Police officers responded to the area of Sudley Manor Drive and Wedgewood Drive in Manassas at about 5 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 15, to investigate a shooting, said police spokesman Officer Renee Carr in a press release.

Police found that a 23-year-old man was shot while sitting inside a vehicle. The man left the area and went to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries, Carr said. Officers located the vehicle nearby on the 10200 block of Quayle Court. No additional injuries or property damage were reported, Carr said.

“Detectives are actively investigating the incident to determine what led up to the shooting,” Carr said.

Schools update safety protocols as COVID-19 cases rise COVID, from page 1 Superintendent LaTanya McDade announced the updated school division protocols on Friday, Aug. 13.

The school division, McDade wrote, is “taking precautions to ensure every student’s safety” and is “committed to limiting disruptions to student learning caused by quarantines or illnesses, as well as ensuring we have the staffing necessary to avoid shuttering classrooms or schools.”

Vaccinations among students, staff

Local vaccination rates among young residents between the ages of 12 and 17 are well ahead of rates for Virginia as a whole, but the county ranks fourth in Northern Virginia when it comes to school-age children having received the vaccine, according to data from the Virginia Department of Health.

The school division says it won’t ask students for proof of vaccination but will accept the information from parents if they provide it. They might also ask if students are vaccinat-

ed when trying to determine “close contacts” for quarantining purposes, according to Diana Gulotta, school division spokeswoman.

School staff are not required to be vaccinated, but based on staff participation at vaccination clinics earlier this year, “we can share that a large majority of the staff are vaccinated,” Gulotta said.

A spokesperson for the Prince William Health District said there was not a specific vaccination rate goal in mind for school-age kids and teens before the new school year began. But the health district has been conducting multiple mobile vaccination clinics each week all summer, as well as a few back-to-school clinics targeting 12- to 17-year-olds. (Children under 12 are not yet eligible to be vaccinated against COVID-19, but officials have said that could change this fall.)

The health district’s goal has been to make the vaccine “available and accessible” if parents and guardians choose to vaccinate their children, said Sean Johnson, the health district’s community outreach director.

Va. offers third COVID-19 vaccine dose to those with compromised immune systems VACCINE, from page 3 Those immunocompromised who have already received two doses of either Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech should wait at least 28 days after their second dose before receiving their third dose. The third dose should be the same manufacturer as the previous two doses, when possible, but this is not required, the release said.

Even with a third dose, those who have compromised immune systems should continue to take other precautions to avoid the coronavirus and the Delta variant, which is two to four times more contagious than earlier strains.

“While available evidence shows that a third dose provides a modest benefit to improving the immune response to mRNA vaccination, it is important to remember that immunocompromised persons might still not have a strong level of protection against COVID-19, even after receiving a third dose of vaccine,” the release said.

Additional COVID-19 precautions include wearing a mask, maintaining physical distance from others outside of the home, and avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated indoor spaces until advised otherwise by their healthcare provider.

Persons who are significantly immunocompromised should also discuss the possibility of monoclonal antibody treatment options with their healthcare provider in case they get infected with or are exposed to COVID-19.

Household members and other close contacts of significantly immunocompromised persons should get fully vaccinated to provide increased protection to their loved ones, the release said.

Who needs a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine?

The CDC is recommending that moderately to severely immunocompromised people receive an additional dose. This includes people who have: • Been receiving active cancer treatment for tumors or cancers of the blood • Received an organ transplant and are taking medicine to suppress the immune system • Received a stem cell transplant within the last 2 years or are taking medicine to suppress the immune system • Moderate or severe primary immunodeficiency (such as DiGeorge syndrome, WiskottAldrich syndrome) • Advanced or untreated HIV infection • Active treatment with high-dose corticosteroids or other drugs that may suppress immune response People should talk to their healthcare provider about their medical condition, and whether getting an additional dose is appropriate for them.

Source: CDC “VDH, physicians and healthcare workers and vaccine providers across the commonwealth stand ready to assist this vulnerable population to obtain the added protection a third vaccine dose will provide against COVID-19,” the release said.

Anyone age 12 or older can find free vaccination clinics near them by visiting vaccinate.virginia.gov or calling 877-VAX-IN-VA (877829-4682, TTY users call 7-1-1).

Ongoing mobile vaccination clinics “have both Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson so that we can hit anyone who wants to have just one dose and then anyone 12 and older. Basically we’re covering anyone who is eligible and wants a vaccine,” Johnson said.

About 49.1% of 12- to 15-yearolds and 66.6% of 16- and 17-yearolds are fully vaccinated in Prince William County, according to VDH data.

The health district will continue its effort to vaccinate as many people as possible throughout the fall and will be ready to provide booster shots if needed, Johnson said.

“Some people look at things like we could go back to normality. And then there’s those of us who say we’re planning for the opposite, and the health district is planning for the opposite,” Johnson said.

Virtual not an option for most students

Many parents have expressed concerns in recent days about sending their children back to school in person amid the rising COVID-19 case numbers. More than 1,000 people have signed a petition asking the school division to provide a virtual option now that the pandemic has taken a turn for the worse with the rise of the Delta variant.

Janelle Anderson, a Coles District parent, said she created the petition

AGE 50+

because she believes “parents need options.”

“If COVID really isn’t going away, then PWCS [and probably schools nationwide] needs to develop a robust virtual program,” she said.

The school division is offering a virtual program this year, but students and parents had to opt into it last May, when COVID-19 case numbers were much lower. McDade says access to the virtual program will remain closed, but that parents can apply for homebound instruction and may qualify under certain medical criteria.

Universal masking now in effect

The school division recently updated its face-covering rules to align with the state’s recent public health order mandating masks in public schools.

As a result, universal indoor masking is required in all Prince William schools for all teachers, staff, students and visitors to schools -- regardless of vaccination status. Students and staff must provide medical documentation of the inability to wear a mask due to a health condition to be exempted from the rule.

A student’s failure to wear a mask when required would be handled “[j] ust like any other infraction” of the school division’s Code of Behavior, Gulotta said.

Census: Prince William among fastest growing, most diverse counties in Virginia CENSUS, from page 1 Prince William County’s population grew from 402,002 residents in 2010 to 482,204 in 2020. It was the fifth fastest growing county in Virginia during that time, the data shows, only behind Loudoun, New Kent, Stafford and Prince George counties. Only Fairfax County has a higher population than Prince William, with 1,150,309 residents.

The county’s population also became much more diverse, mirroring national and statewide trends. Minorities now represent 62% of the county’s total population, up from 51% in 2010.

And for the first time since at least 1980, the county’s total non-Hispanic white population fell, while all other racial groups saw an increase.

The county’s young people, those under the age of 18, are even more diverse than the overall population of the county, with 70% identifying themselves as non-white.

The county’s seven magisterial districts all increased in population between 2010 and 2020. Each magisterial district is represented by a local elected official who sits on the board of county supervisors. The Woodbridge and Brentsville districts had the largest spikes in population, each gaining about 15,000 residents.

The county’s population saw its largest local increases in Woodbridge, Potomac, Yorkshire and western Gainesville, Engelmann said.

Those increases, Engelmann said, “can be attributed to developments such as Potomac Shores, Orchard Bridge, multifamily developments in the Woodbridge and Potomac districts and single-family and townhome developments in Gainesville and Brentsville districts.”

The cities of Manassas and Manassas Park also saw an uptick in population between 2010 and 2020. The City of Manassas Park added 2,946 new residents, bringing the city’s population to 17,219. The City of Manassas added 4,951 new residents, bringing COVID, from page 5 The Code of Behavior categorizes an “inappropriate student dress” infraction as a behavior that interferes with the daily operation of school procedures. An infraction could result in a range of consequences, from “classroom supports, interventions, or minor consequences” to a “suspension between six and 10 days,” the behavior code states.

Updated lunchroom protocols

7915 Lake Manassas Dr. | Suite 101 | Gainesville, VA 20155

After initially saying school cafeterias would operate at pre-pandemic capacities, McDade’s updated Aug. 13 guidance said schools would “work to provide opportunities to maintain distance when possible,” noting the “goal is to minimize time students are unmasked and/or less than 3 feet apart.”

The updated guidance also states that “podding students” and assigned

Prince William County’s changing demographics

Prince William County became more diverse between 2010 and 2020, according to newly released U.S. Census data. The share of the county’s white population fell by about 11% during that time. The number of Hispanic, Asian and multiracial residents all increased as a share of the total population.

Reach Daniel Berti at dberti@ fauquier.com seats will be implemented; that visitors won’t be allowed; that students must keep 3 feet of physical spacing while waiting in the lunch line; and that students should replace their masks as soon as possible after eating.

The guidance also includes additional solutions for schools to consider, including allowing students to spread out by eating in hallways, libraries and multi-purpose rooms; staggering lunch periods, and allowing students to go outside “immediately after eating” so as to limit time without their masks in indoor settings.

There was no mention of social distancing or modifications to lunchtime routines during recent back-toschool webinars for parents. Still, Gulotta said the updates were not new but rather “clarifications of existing planned protocols and refinements based on VDH orders and CDC guidance to improve understanding.”

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Prince William Times | August 19, 2021

GUEST OPINION

Stimulus funds allow ‘transformative’ investments in Va. infrastructure Some of Emily’s students were missing 10 or more school days each year due to asthma. When she noticed her public school’s HVAC system was circulating the same stale air all day, she was told not to open her classroom’s windows for fresh air because of chipping lead paint on the frames.

One AC unit flooded regularly, leading to mold on the walls, carpeting and classroom furniture.

Teachers like Emily complained but nothing changed. When COVID-19 sent everyone home, many teachers noted significant improvements in their respiratory health. After a year of reduced exposure to the unhealthy classroom air, Emily said some of her coworkers’ voices became unrecognizable without the hoarseness of clogged sinuses and chronic coughs.

It goes without saying that no child should be asked to learn where they can’t breathe. Now that it seems the coronavirus will be with us for another school year, the urgency of clean air flowing into our classrooms is even more apparent. This task is one of the many crucial, transformative statewide infrastructure projects included in the stimulus package recently passed by Virginia’s General Assembly.

The federal American Rescue Plan Act that President Joe Biden signed into law this past March included billions of dollars for Virginia. Gov. Ralph Northam called the [Virginia] General Assembly into special session to allocate those funds at the beginning of August.

On Monday, Aug. 16, the House of Delegates and state Senate adopted our final budget, sending it to the governor’s desk. With his signature, $3.2 billion in relief will begin to be dispersed to Virginia’s communities. As chair of the House Appropriations Committee, I’m particularly proud of this budget and

DEL. LUKE TORIAN

the forward-looking investments it makes in every region of Virginia.

By 2025, every Virginian will have the opportunity to learn, work and access telehealth from home as a result of $700 million dedicated to expanding high-speed broadband internet infrastructure. With this investment, Virginia is on track to be the first state in the nation to achieve universal broadband service.

Our budget prioritized clean air and water for all Virginians. It directs $250 million to Virginia’s public schools for ventilation upgrades so teachers like Emily can focus on making up for lost time – not moldy carpets and noxious air.

We’ve planned for an equitable distribution of these funds; support for HVAC projects will be distributed on a per-pupil basis with a minimum of $200,000 for Virginia’s smallest school divisions.

Local matches should come from another federal relief program – the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund – which is weighted heavily toward higher-poverty school divisions.

Our stimulus package also dedicated $411 million to wastewater treatment and clean drinking water.

That includes well and septic system improvements for low-income homeowners and $125 million for combined sewer overflow projects to keep wastewater out of Virginia’s streams, rivers and the Chesapeake Bay.

Environmentally minded undertakings don’t stop there. This budget authorizes up to $25 million in bonds for the Port of Virginia to support an offshore wind project.

Additionally, we are sending $25 million to our state parks for maintenance and construction.

This budget invests in our communities. In addition to $4 million in support for Virginia’s Main Street businesses, we are putting $22.5 million into industrial revitalization – redeveloping vacant and deteriorated commercial properties.

Health care is infrastructure. This spending package launches critical projects across Virginia’s health care system. We are funding electronic management and recordkeeping systems as well as broadband connectivity, facility and network upgrades at local health departments. We are addressing capacity limits at state behavioral health hospitals by adding supported housing options for longterm patients and funding facilities renovations.

Virginia already has the most comprehensive voting rights protections in the South. This budget further invests in our election infrastructure with $3 million to assist localities with the expansion of early voting, including Sunday voting.

As a result of strong leadership and prudent budgeting over the past 17 months, Virginia’s economy is in good shape; we have a greater revenue surplus and larger reserves than ever before. While other states are using their stimulus funds to simply stay afloat, our commonwealth’s strong fiscal standing allowed us to pass a stimulus package that will transform Virginia’s communities through a set of historically ambitious infrastructure projects. Your majorities in the General Assembly are looking forward and planning for the future – and we’re just getting started.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Objecting to undocumented children attending public schools is ignorant, unconstitutional Chris Stone’s implication that non-English-speaking students, including not just undocumented children but also U.S. citizens and legally present children, should not be provided education because Virginia schools do not have the resources and educators and teachers “don’t know what to do with them” displays his ignorance not only of Supreme Court precedent but of civil rights laws and regulations.

As the Department of Justice and the Department of Education point out, under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, “EL [English learner] students are entitled to appropriate language assistance services to become proficient in English and to partic-

ipate equally in the standard instructional program within a reasonable period of time.”

[Source: Ensuring English Learner Students Can Participate Meaningfully and Equally in Educational Programs, U.S. DOJ and U.S. DOE Fact Sheet, available at https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/ docs/dcl-factsheet-el-students-201501.pdf.]

Mr. Stone’s suggestions, if adopted in Virginia, would immediately subject the commonwealth to expensive, and hopeless, litigation, and potentially to loss of federal education funds.

Del. Danica Roem working for Prince William Del. Danica Roem is one of the most prolific delegates in Richmond. The 13th District covers Manassas Park and western Prince William County.

Roem, a Democrat, has worked on expansion of Medicaid coverage for 400,000 Virginians. She worked on teacher salary increases by 5%, from a level lower than many districts in Northern Virginia. She led programs to help pay off school lunch meals debts, especially in Loch Lomond Elementary, PACE West in Gainesville and Sinclair Elementary. More than $40,000 was raised in this initiative.

These are just a few issues that Del. Roem worked on behalf of her 13th District constituents. In addition, she has led on the initiative to clean up Route 28 so that Prince William residents could commute their jobs throughout Northern Virginia and Washington.

What’s Hot at Prince William libraries: August 2021

By Kirk Johnson

Contributing Writer

August represents the final days of summer.

Many families will be trying to get one last vacation in and students will be hoping to enjoy one last month of recreational reading before assigned reading lists crowd out beach books, genre stories and the latest literary fiction.

Fortunately, Prince William Public Libraries have a wide variety of new fiction that critics are anticipating, reviewers are raving about and readers will be sure to devour.

Here are some notable titles added to our collection in the past few weeks.

Last year, Charlotte McConaghy wowed readers with the critically acclaimed novel “Migrations.” She has followed that up this month with “Once There Were Wolves.”

This gripping novel is simultaneously a suspense novel and an examination of what it means to be an outsider. And there are wolves, too. Wild wolves are being reintroduced to a Scottish environment. Their species had been eliminated by the ancestors of the locals the main character encounters.

First-time novelist Tracey Lange examines the legacy of shame and family in her debut “We Are the Brennans.” A tale of rejection and redemption, family and forgiveness, this novel is also a mystery involving secrets from the past that threaten not only the protagonist, but the entire family she had once shunned and is now seeking to reconnect with.

While literary thrillers are justifiably popu-

lar, some readers want straight-up mysteries and thrillers. Stuart Woods is one author that fans of the genre know they can count on. His latest Stone Barrington novel—the 58th novel in the series—doesn’t break any new ground; for longtime fans that’s almost certainly good news. “Class Act” is sure to guarantee its loyal fans the action and adventure they’ve come to expect from the series—and may make a few new fans as well.

If the swashbuckling, macho world of Stone Barrington isn’t your cup of tea, perhaps the new literary thriller “The Husbands,” by Chandler Baker, will do the trick.

Often being tagged as a “reverse ‘Stepford Wives’” by reviewers, this story of a successful woman who finds a community where her equally high-status husband might be compelled to be an equal partner in maintaining the household.

An examination of gender and marriage as well as a compelling mystery, this could be one of the books people are talking about this month.

If you want less mystery and more family drama, “Malibu Rising,” by Taylor Jenkin Reid will give you all you can handle. This story of a famous, wealthy family of supermodels, surfers,

photographers and singers surrounded by the scenesters of the Malibu upper-crust may not be very relatable -- but that’s the point.

Kirk Johnson is part of the Prince William Public Libraries material services division.

ROEM, from page 7 By way of contrast, Delegate Roem’s opponent for re-election to the House of Delegates, Republican Christopher Stone, appears to continue to object to undocumented children attending county public schools. Stone should be aware that the U. S. Supreme Court directed public schools throughout the United States to provide educational opportunities for all children regardless of immigration status. The Supreme Court order was announced some 39 years ago in 1982 in Plyler v. Department of Education, 457U.S.202 (1982).

Voters in the 13th District are very well represented by Del. Danica Roem. Please consider voting for Danica starting on Sept. 17, including Sundays.

2021 CEDAR RUN DISTRICT FOOTBALL PREVIEW Battlefield’s Hatfield, OP’s Scott, Gainesville’s Bruton are new coaches; Murphy is Unity Reed’s superstar

High school football is back to its normal 10-game schedule starting Aug. 27. This week the Prince William Times previews the Cedar Run District’s six Prince William programs, with the Cardinal District next week.

By Jason S. Rufner Special to the Times

Experience and maturity are the predominant themes coming from the six head coaches of Prince William’s Cedar Run District football programs as they look forward to their 2021 campaigns.

Coming off an abbreviated springtime season which saw Battlefield, Patriot, and Loudoun County’s John Champe split the district regular-season title with one loss apiece, both the Bobcats and the Patriots are anticipating autumn seasons at least as strong.

Emerging talent at Unity Reed, Osbourn, and Osbourn Park could make those teams contenders, and the league welcomes three new coaches.

We also introduce the Gainesville Cardinals, the county’s newest program playing a JV schedule in Prince William Times’ Cedar Run District Football Preview:

Battlefield Bobcats

-Coach: Greg Hatfield (1st year) -Last season: 5-2 -Expected contributors: DE/TE Wesley Wiliams; QB Jonathan I. Walters; K Vadin Bruot -Web: BobcatsPride.org -Twitter: @Bobcat_Pride1 -First game: Aug. 27 at Potomac -Outlook: It may be Greg Hatfield’s first year at Battlefield, but he’s an experienced head coach taking over a program accustomed to success.

Hatfield won over 100 games in 13 seasons leading Eastern View.

He takes over a program that has averaged nearly nine wins per season over that same span.

“You want to embrace the past and make sure you work hard enough and your team works hard enough to wear the purple and black,” he said. “It is not a burden but an honor.”

The Bobcats are primed to put up another big win total on the strength of Duke commit Wesley Williams, set to become Battlefield’s secondever Power Five recruit after Brailyn Franklin four years ago.

As a 6-foot-5, 230-pound senior, Williams is a monster at both tight

end and defensive end. Defensively, he’ll be backed by linebackers Austin Nevins and Brodie Carroll, a senior and junior respectively. Senior Dominic Taylor leads the DB corps.

“We need great leadership from our seniors and juniors to be successful,” Hatfield said.

Senior Jonathan I. Walters figures to man the QB job, with wideouts Taylor and junior Caleb Woodson as top targets. Senior lineman Connor Sealock will help protect Walters.

Senior kicker Vadin Bruot is receiving college interest for his leg, though Hatfield notes he’s a “very strong player” in general.

“We need to work on improving daily and weekly to be a better team in November than August,” Hatfield said.

Patriot Pioneers

-Coach: Sean Finnerty (3rd year) -Last season: 5-2 -Expected contributors: QB Sam Fernandez; RB Keith Jenkins; LB Brady McLaughlin -Web: PatriotPioneers.org -Twitter: @PatriotHS_FB -First game: Aug. 27 vs. Hylton -Outlook: The Pioneers seek their sixth consecutive winning season while aspiring to capture the district title all to their own.

They’ll do so behind the arm of QB Sam Fernandez pitching to fleetfooted wideout Gabe Bigbee, both experienced juniors.

Big offensive linemen Cole Surber and Brandon Khu, a pair of juniors combining for 520 pounds, clear a path for tailback Keith Jenkins, a senior.

Patriot’s defense is led by linebackers Brady McLaughlin, a senior, and junior Kam Mahoney.

“They put us in the right place,” Finnerty said.

Patriot’s 21-game in-district win streak was snapped this spring by Battlefield, so the rivals’ showdown Sept. 3 in Haymarket should carry even more weight.

“We must stay healthy and execute,” Finnerty said. “Our goal is to reach the regional championship again.”

Osbourn Eagles

-Coach: Cortez Whiting (5th year) -Last season: 4-2 -Expected contributors: QB Jakari Lewis; WR Nigel Burke; LB Diego Aviles -Web: OsbournAthletics.org -Twitter: @Osbourn_FB -First game: Aug. 27 at Manassas Park -Outlook: The Eagles showed plenty of promise in winning four of their six games last spring, upping the expectations for head coach Cortez Whiting.

“We took that season as like a spring season and we played the kids we knew would be coming back,” he said. “We wanted to come back with a lot of experience.”

The Osbourn staff has moved one of the top running backs in the area, Jakari Lewis, to quarterback for his senior season. “He’s got a good arm, so we’re looking to change the offense a little more, get that dualthreat quarterback,” Whiting said.

“It gets the ball into his hands right away.”

Lewis will be protected by a strong offensive line led by 6-5, 300-pound left tackle Brandon Hastings and 6-4, 280-pound Matthew Pack flanking center Carson Hinebaugh, all returning seniors.

Junior Nigel Burke, a three-year starter, is the primary home-run threat at receiver.

Defensively, the Eagles rely on four-year starters Quentin Davis and Diego Aviles. Both are all-district linebacker selections from last season. Burke and Nick Williams lead the cornerback corps.

Whiting said Osbourn has been rebuilding for several seasons, and “it’s time for us to show up.”

“With a lot of games under their belts, this group right here should be a special group at turning the program around,” the coach said.

Osbourn Park Yellow Jackets

-Coach: Reggie Scott (1st year) -Last season: 0-6 -Expected contributors: QB Ryan Westhoff; RB Thomas Pullen; DT Andrew Arthur-Humphrey -Web: OPJackets.org -Twitter: @OPHSfootball -First game: Aug. 27 at Colgan -Outlook: Hired from Freedom in Woodbridge where he was a defensive assistant, new head coach Reggie Scott takes over a program looking for its first winning season in over a decade.

“Commitment and competition,” Scott stressed. “It’s our level of commitment and competition to each other as a team. Those things are key ingredients to winning.”

Not that the cupboard is bare at OP. As a junior QB, Ryan Westhoff is the Jackets’ recognized on-field leader and possesses a strong arm.

“He’s shown the ability to push the ball downfield and create opportunities for our pass catchers.”

Running back Thomas Pullen

made the all-district second team last season as a sophomore. Junior tight end Wyatt Hurley has improved his physicality this off-season, Scott said, winning jump balls in camp.

Andrew Arthur-Humphrey anchors the defense at tackle after earning second-team all-district honors last year, as do defensive end Jakob Hancock and cornerback Nehemiah Rhodes, both returning starters.

“He does a great job using his eyes in the secondary and can create turnovers,” said Scott of Rhodes, a second-team all-district pick.

2021 CEDAR RUN DISTRICT FOOTBALL PREVIEW CEDAR RUN, from page 13

Gainesville Cardinals (JV) -Coach: Daniel Bruton (1st year of program) -Web: GainesvilleCardinals.com -Twitter: @GainesvilleFootball -First game: Sept. 1 vs. Osbourn Park (JV) -Outlook: It figures to be a year of building for the newest high school football program in Prince William County. Perhaps more than a year.

“Building a culture and establishing

norms will take time. We will not sacrifice long-term success and growth for short-term accolades,” said Daniel Bruton, tapped to lead the Cardinals’ program in its inaugural season. They’ll play a JV schedule.

“What I tell the players and coaches is we are a crockpot, not a microwave.”

Bruton knows how to lead programs.

He was Forest Park’s head coach for four seasons starting in 2014, making the playoffs twice before moving on to

Unity Reed Lions

-Coach: Carroll Walker (5th year) -Last season: 1-4 -Expected contributors: LB Shawn Murphy; QB Blake Moore; RB Mekhi Blakeney -Web: URLionsAthletics.com -Twitter: @UReedFootball4 -First game: Aug. 27 at Westfield -Outlook: Don’t let the record fool you. There’s no shortage of talent at Unity Reed, and coach Carroll Walker thinks the wins are coming.

“We want to give our kids an opportunity to show their talents. I think this year their talent is going to show,” Walker said. “This year we’re going to be competitive. We want to compete for the district. That’s our goal.”

Despite what Walker calls a “tough schedule,” he feels that goal is within

reach, especially considering the playmakers the Lions put on the field.

Senior middle linebacker Shawn Murphy, at 6-3 and 225 pounds, was universally prized as a college recruit before choosing Alabama.

He’s flanked by outside LB Amare

Campbell, who holds Power Five offers of his own.

Juniors Shane Eller, a linebacker, and Dashaun Gibson, a cornerback, are other returning starters for Walker, as are defensive backs (and twins) Jalen and Jashaun Morrison.

“This defense is really coming together as a unit,” the coach said. “I think they’ve matured a little bit more than what we asked of them last year, so I think they’re going to bring a lot to the table.”

The Lions’ offense will add a new dimension with junior quarterback Blake Moore, a transfer from Battlefield.

“He can throw the ball very well and he reads defenses pretty well,” Walker said.

Gibson, Marquez Davis, Jalen Morrison, and slotback Sean Scott

Briar Woods and earning postseason spots three years in a row.

He takes on the challenge of founding Gainesville’s program, citing “culture and relationships” as key aspects of the foundation.

“We have a team full of young guys that will grow and mature at different rates. All of these guys will be contributors to our program,” he said.

“If they do what they’re capable of, you will know their names.” are among Moore’s targets.

“We have a lot of athletes who can catch the ball,” Walker said.

Bowling ball running back Mekhi Blakeney, standing all of 5-5, returns after seeing significant snaps as a sophomore, backed up by Eller and junior Jaivon Haney.

Unity Reed has plenty of seniority along the line in 300-pound nose guard Leon Olson, tackle Julio Vazquez, and guard Anthony Green, a transfer from Patriot. Tight end Quinton Waddy is also a senior.

Two-way lineman Richard Mulhern returns after starting as a sophomore.

“I’m getting a lot of people back who were young last year, now they’re adding experience,” Walker said. “We’re going to strap it up, give it our best shot.”
