New Law Will Help Kids Learn to Read

By Destiny Brandon Capital News Service

RICHMOND – Virginia schools must provide extra help to students in kindergarten and first and second grades who do poorly on diagnostic reading tests, under legislation that Gov. Bob McDonnell signed into law in recent weeks.

Schools already must offer reading intervention services to third-graders who demonstrate deficiencies on the state’s Standards of Learning reading test or other diagnostic measures. The new law, effective July 1, will add kindergarten and grades one and two to that requirement.

That is the result of McDonnell’s signing of two identical proposals that were passed overwhelmingly by the General Assembly during its recent session: House Bill 2068, sponsored by Delegate Jim LeMunyon, R-Oak Hill, and Senate Bill 1171, introduced by Sen. Harry Blevins, R-Chesapeake.

“For kids who are in kindergarten and first and second grade, what’s going to change for them is they’ll be able to get special reading assistance,” LeMunyon said. “So they would maybe be tutored sometime during the school day on read-

ing by a reading specialist. Right now, that’s only happening in third grade.”

The new law also states: “Local school divisions shall report the results of the diagnostic tests to the Department of Education on an annual basis, at a time to be determined by the Superintendent of Public Instruction. Each student who receives early intervention reading services will be assessed again at the end of that school year.”

State officials say there are indications that early intervention reading services already have improved student success among third-graders.

“In 2012, the General Assembly approved legislation proposed by Governor McDonnell that made the promotion of third graders who are not proficient in reading conditional on their receiving the remediation they need to improve their skills and read on grade level,” said Charles Pyle, director of communications for the Virginia Department of Education.

“While one year does not a trend

make, the pass rate on the gradethree reading SOL test increased by two-and-a-half points last year.”

Reading intervention services include “special reading teachers; trained aides; volunteer tutors under the supervision of a certified teacher; computer-based reading tutorial programs; aides to instruct in-class groups while the teacher provides direct instruction to the students who need extra assistance; and extended instructional time in the school day or school year for these students,” according to the Virginia Department of Education’s website.

The new law will have little if any financial impact on the state, according to an analysis by the Virginia Department of Planning and Budget. It noted that it’s now optional for school districts to provide early intervention reading services in kindergarten and first and second grades. The state provides $18 million a year in matching funds for schools to offer such services.

LeMunyon said reading interven-

performance on any diagnostic test that has been approved by the Department of Education.”

Currently, algebra readiness intervention services are optional. The state provides about $11 million a year as its share of the cost to fund these services in grades seven and eight.

The new law will ensure that all students struggling with algebra in grades six through nine will get help.

“What we’re going to do is, if someone looks like they’re not doing well in algebra maybe in seventh grade, they’ll get that same small-group or one-on-one assistance to help them out, so that they don’t find out at the end of the class they’re not going to pass,” LeMunyon said.

tion services are a practical matter.

“The idea is that everybody can read at a third grade level by the time they’re finished third grade,” he said.

The co-sponsors of HB 2068 were Republican Delegates David Albo of Springfield, Scott Garrett of Lynchburg, Rick Morris of Carrollton, Roxann Robinson of Chesterfield, Thomas Rust of Herndon, and Ronald Villanueva of Virginia Beach.

Sen. Frank Ruff, R-Clarksville, joined Blevins in sponsoring the companion bill, SB 1171.

Reading intervention isn’t the only service mandated by the new law.

It also requires schools to “provide algebra readiness intervention services to students in grades six through nine who are at risk of failing the Algebra I end-of-course test, as demonstrated by their individual

LFCC Holds Egg Hunt on March 23rd

Wayside Theatre Artistic Director Warner Crocker speaks while Board President Dr. Byron Brill shows his enthusiasm.

By Sue Golden Frederick County Report Following long meetings and intense discussions, the Wayside Theatre’s Board of Directors announced this week that it believes it is ready to go forward with season 52. According to Board President Byron Brill,

the decision is the result of the multitude of new approaches taken by the board and theatre employees.

The theatre budget was cut even further, requiring only $197,000 to be raised for the 2013/2014 season. The Board believes it has raised $113,000 in grants, donations and spon-

sorships for the 52nd season.

The remaining $84,000 needed will be raised during the next year. This is “realistic”, Brill said.

“We can do this.” The board is emphatic that, although no one wants to lose the theatre, the board will not go forward without a viable fundraising and business plan. No more emergency fundraisers; the board will make sure the Wayside Theatre can raise needed funds

or will close.

The board itself is stepping up to the plate. It has added new members with specialties in fundraising, management, and grant writing. It still has opening on its board; the board is analyzing what skill sets it still needs in deciding how to fill the additional seats.

The board also is looking for volunteers to help with the new committee structure it has

fundraising structure . Ticket sales alone will not keep the theatre open. People are encouraged to go to the theatre’s website, www.wayside theatre. com, to make donations on a yearly, monthly or one time basis. Consistent pledges help the theatre when applying for grant money, and for better planning its budget.

At the same time, the theatre created a “$20 Is Plenty” campaign to continue to encourage smaller donations. Artistic Director Warner Crocker said that if one half of each of the 20,000 ticket buyers last year donated $20, it would have raised $200,000.

Many local organizations have stepped forward to volunteer support for the Wayside Theatre. The Winchester/Frederick County chapter of The Nation-

al Active and Retired Federal Employees (NARFE) is including the Wayside Theatre in its ongoing Bus Tour program.

Through the Bus Tour program, NARFE raises money to help those afflicted with Alzheimer’s. The Shenandoah Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America and the town of Middletown are sponsoring a car show in Middletown’s town park on June 22, 2013. The theatre’s volunteer group, P.R.O.P.S , the town of Middletown and the Shenandoah Valley Runners are sponsoring a “Run4Wayside” four mile run on September 7, 2013. Local artists, organized

Other ideas include a “pay what you can night,” and special theme nights like first responders, teachers and “read a book” nights. Crocker reminds people that for every $1 spent on art, $7 is returned to the community.

Some things inside the theatre

are changing, while other things stay the same. Ticket prices will remain the same, making a Wayside Theatre ticket the least expensive purchase of any non-subsidized professional theatre in the region. However, less will need to be done with more. Crocker promises to be transparent with the running of

the theatre from its budget on down and any success or failure in the next year. Look for details in the Curtain Call Café and on the website.

Maybe the biggest change for Crocker will be taking the “magic” made in the theatre and sharing it with the audience. Crocker says the staff always works behind the scene to provide magic for theatre goers.

Now he intends to include the audience in the magic.

As of press time, the theatre raised $88,383.13 in its $90,000 emergency campaign. Crocker is upbeat. Season 52 subscriptions are selling fast. A first mailing to supporters was sent out on Monday last. The “$20 is Plenty” campaign is taking off. A chipper Crocker noted that he expects to know by Labor Day whether or not things are on track. And with that, he signed off to go eat his McDonald’s takeout.

the new plate is a home run.

“We are excited that the additional stream of revenue from the license plate program will allow us to expand our grants even further, ultimately making a greater impact on the organizations based in Virginia,” a spokesperson for the foundation said in an email.

Like other specialty plates, the Washington Nationals plates will cost $25 above regular vehicle registration fees.

After the first 1,000 plates have been sold, $15 of the $25 will go to the Dream Foundation.

State lawmakers typically introduce five or six bills each session to create specialty plates, according to Sunni Brown, a DMV spokeswoman.

Eight specialty plates were

proposed during the General Assembly’s 2013 session; four passed, including the Washington Nationals plate. Legislators also approved plates for the Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Action Alliance, the U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force.

They will add to a selection of more than 200 specialty plates Virginia drivers can choose from. The DMV already offers plates for the Washington Redskins football team and the Washington Capitals hockey team.

“Virginians love their special

plates,” Brown said. “If you’re a Washington Nationals fan, now you can get one, too.”

Wayside Theatre is located in Middletown, Virginia on Route 11, Main Street, just north of the intersection of I66and I-81.

Two Sherando High School students will be competing at the International Science and Engineering Fair in May. Sophomore Jon Gustafson and junior Catherine Pollack earned the opportunity to compete at the international competition in Phoenix, Arizona, by being named grand prize winners at the Regional Science Fair held at James Madison University on March 5.

Frederick County Public Schools students did exceptionally well at the regional competition. They captured a total of 15 gold medals, 15 silver medals, 4 bronze medals and 24 specialty awards. In addition, many students qualified to compete at the State Science Fair next month. Frederick County students will compete in nine of 17 categories at the State Science Fair.

Schools Superintendent David Sovine says, “I want to congratulate all of the students who represented our school division at the Regional Science Fair. Their success indicates the quality of the science programs being offered at all of our schools. Thanks to the work of our classroom teachers and instructional staff, more students are getting excited about science. This is evidenced by the fact that we had a record 300 students display projects at the Frederick County Public Schools Science Fair last month.”

While the rules about off-season workouts are different than they have been in the past, Coach Haymore said he was looking forward to having some off-season coaching opportunities, possibly starting April. Until then, however, he said that working in the weight room will pivotal to their success.

“We are behind right now, but we will get after it.”

March 18, 2013

The Pioneers of Millbrook High School are looking to build off of their 2012 success in 2013, and do so they will have a new coach at their helm. After former head coach Reed Prosser announced he was leaving Millbrook to take on the job at Heritage High School, the search was on for his replacement and the Pioneers believe they have found their man.

Josh Haymore has been named their new head coach, after several years on the coaching staff at Broadway High School, including a stint last year as their Offensive Coordinator. Before his time at Broadway, Coach Haymore was on the staff at James Madison Univer-

sity, where he played football from an opportunity for the players to with the student athletes at Mill2001 to 2004. show their own commitment to brook: Discipline, Accountability, “I am so excited and fired up, the team. When asked about his and Responsibility.

I can barely sit still,” said Coach coaching philosophy, he said he “I want to teach these kids, not Haymore, just a few hours after wanted to emphasize three things just football, but how to be a man,” meeting with his coaching staff at Millbrook.

“I met with my coaches today, and I am so excited to see how tight this group of coaches is with each other,” says Haymore. “Nothing is broke here, they just lost their head coach, that’s all. These are the guys I want” While he is very satisfied with the coaches around him, Haymore said that he is going to take the A RARE DEFENSIVE than done.

Lee Marvin: Point Blank

by Dwayne Epstein, afterword by Christopher Marvin (Schaffner Press, $27.95) Reviewed by Larry Cox Much of what we think we know about Lee Marvin is gleaned from his tough-guy film roles. Some of his performances remain as chilling as when they were first released. For example, who could forget Marvin in John Ford’s “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance,” the brutality of “The Big Red One” and his impressive turn in the iconic “The Dirty Dozen.” Then there’s his Oscar-winning dual role in “Cat Ballou.”

Although his work helped establish Marvin as one of the industry’s most impressive actors, not much has been revealed about his personal life, even his combat experiences as a Marine during World War II. What makes this new biography so intriguing is that author Dwayne Epstein researched Marvin for several years, interviewing dozens of members of the acting profession in addition to his closest friends and family members. The result is a balanced book with even more depth than the previous full-length biography of Marvin, which was published before his death in 1987 at age 63.

According to Epstein, more than 100 people were interviewed for this project. Two standouts include Lee’s brother, Robert, and the actor’s first wife, Betty. Others who offered insight include actors Angie Dickinson and Jack Palance, and directors John Frankenheimer and Stanley Kramer.

A critic for The New York Times nicknamed Marvin “The Merchant of Menace” after seeing him shoot a scene in “The Big Heat.” This film was notable for the scene where Marvin’s character tosses a pot of scalding coffee into Gloria Grahame’s face. It was only a supporting role, but the actor left his indelible mark on the final product. Ironically, it wasn’t feature films that made Marvin a household name, but a TV series, “M Squad,” which debuted in 1957.

“Point Blank” is a rollicking narrative that comes about as close to the authentic Marvin as we are apt to get. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

Fountain Pen

Q:

I have a Sheaffer’s Lifetime fountain pen, in excellent condition. How much is it worth?

— Mrs. F.V., Rio Rancho, N.M. According to “Collecting Pens”

by Edward Kiersh, if your pen was manufactured in 1950 and is a Lifetime Triumph with Touchdown filler, it could be worth $125 in new to excellent condition. *** We have a stovetop waffle iron that was manufactured

by Stover. We would like to know if it has any value as a collectible. — Hershel and Freda, Jackson, Mo. Prices depend on rarity and desirability. Although I could not find your particular waffle iron in my reference books, a rule of thumb is that the more intricate the waffle iron, the higher the price. For example, the Yum Yum waffle iron manufactured

by Griswold for hotel kitchens is valued at between $500 and $1,200, depending on size and model. Most of the other simpler ones fall into the $40 to $100 range, again depending on rarity and desirability. I would think that your waffle iron might fall into that range, too. *** I have dozens of old 78 rpm records by such artists as Patti Page, Dinah Shore and Frank Sinatra. Where can I sell them? —

A:

Q: A:

Q:

Mrs. J.W., Holmdel, N.J. Good question. Finding anyone interested in 78 rpm records is getting harder and harder.

There are three major reasons why this is so. First, most of the better vintage music has been transferred to either cassette tape or compact discs. Second, finding equipment to play the older records on is becoming almost impossible and, finally, 78 rpm discs are fragile and difficult to preserve and store. I wish I had better news for you, but I suggest you donate your collection to a charity. *** I began collecting Western paperbacks when I was a teenager more than 50 years ago. I would now like to sell them. Please advise me. — Marsha, Sioux Falls, S.D. I suggest you start by contacting dealers in your area. The Book Shop buys and sells used paperbacks, a good place to begin. Contact is 223 S. Phillips Ave., Sioux Falls, SD 57104.
