Water walk for change

Redmond has a healthy housing market SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com

There are many things that could attract people to move to Redmond. Don Zender, vice president and a lending manager at Evergreen Home Loans in Bellevue, said these attractions include good schools, a growing job market (especially in the tech industry), strong neighborhoods, easy access to Seattle as well as to various outdoor activities and features. This, he said, is one of the reasons the Red-

Redmond High School’s Chicas for Change hold event to simulate the daily journey Kenyan women and children make in search of clean water CLAIRE PERRY Special to the Reporter

Every day, women from Kenya walk an average of five miles carrying approximately 40 pounds of water. With clean, running water available to the vast majority of Americans, few can empathize with the hardships these women face. But a group of Redmond High School (RHS) students known as Chicas for Change is trying to change that, one jug of water at a time. Working to “help build (their) community and the world,” Chicas for Change was founded in the summer of 2014 by a group of six RHS sophomores: Rachel Johnson, Lauren Settle, Katie McCannon, Lauren Winner, Hannah Winner and Taylor Ray. Inspired by Free the Children, a nonprofit association that empowers youth around the world to make changes both in their community and abroad, the

girls began working to raise awareness and help others in need. Since then, this group of sophomores has already made and distributed blankets to Seattle Children’s Hospital and raised more than $3,500 to help build a school in Ecuador. The Chicas’ new focus:

clean water in underdeveloped nations. The girls’ emphasis shifted from education to clean water and sanitation once they realized the tremendous impact a shortage of clean water can have on a community. [ more WATER page 7 ]

In April, students in the advanced placement world history class at Redmond High School (RHS) were assigned a project in which they had to research a post-

World War II conflict in a foreign country. Sophomore Levi Casto researched the country of Georgia for the project. “(Georgia) had come up in my AP exams and I found it interesting,” he said about why he chose that country to

research.

City to hold interactive bus workshop The City of Redmond and transit planner Jarrett Walker are holding an interactive workshop on June 13 to plan future bus service in Redmond. The public is invited to attend the workshop, which will take the form of a game in which participants allocate limited amounts of transit service on boards representing cities with realistic but simplified geographies, including Redmond. No transit or transportation planning experience is required. The workshop will be from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Redmond City Hall Bytes Café, 15670 N.E. 85th St. Lunch will be provided. Participants will work within

real-world constraints to design the networks. The game portion of the event will be followed by a discussion and voting exercise, which will help define Redmond’s transit priorities. The results of the workshop will inform the development of Redmond’s preferred transit service plans, which will influence the quantity and location of transit service in the future. Confirmed attendees include City Council members, planning commissioners, residents, employees, representatives from human services organizations, regional transit agencies and neighboring jurisdictions. RSVPs are required; contact Patrick McGrath at pbmcgrath@redmond. gov or (425) 556-2870 to reserve a place.

relationship between our two countries, and students like Levi give us hope that the spirit of cooperation will continue for generations to come.” In his letter to Casto, Garibashvili wrote that he was excited that Casto was “taking the time to learn more about Georgia and its independence.” “I am truly impressed by your interest in Georgia and hope that your report turns out well,” Garibashvili wrote. “I hope you will continue to learn about Georgia as it is

was the first time that he has responded to an email from a high school student in the United States. “The prime minister believes it is important for young people to engage in current events so that they can use their talents and knowledge to better their community and country,” Karumidze said. “The U.S. is Georgia’s premier strategic ally. Our governments work together closely on a number of important issues related to economics and security… We are proud of the close

“The funny thing is that he didn’t tell us of this correspondence,” Cordell said. “He is far too modest to put himself forward in that way, but it does not surprise me in the slightest that he went far above and beyond what most students would think to do to research their topic.” Casto said working on the project Cordell assigned has really opened his eyes. He admitted that he was not super interested in history before this, only enough to sign up for the AP class. But that has changed. “There’s a lot more to world history that what’s already passed,” he said, adding that the world is constantly changing and developing. When asked which other heads of state he would like to contact, Casto mentioned Fidel Castro, but tensions may still be a bit high between Cuba and the United States for that at the moment. Another person he would love to contact is Xi Jinping, the president of China. “I’d like to write to him and learn how China is one of the few successful socialist countries,” Casto said.

adviser to the administration of the Government of Georgia, said the prime minister receives a high volume of emails, which are reviewed by his staff. In the instance of Casto’s letter, Karumidze said they knew Garibashvili would appreciate reading an email from an American student who was interested in Georgia and that he would want to help him with his research paper. “Prime Minister Garibashvili was impressed by Levi’s initiative to write him directly as well as his intellectual curiosity about Georgia,” Karumidze said. “He was heartened that an American high school student was researching a small country that serves as a strategically important ally to the U.S.” Karumidze added that while the prime minister personally reads and responds to email correspondence, his correspondence with Casto

Because who better to tell him about Georgia than the country’s head of state, the 16-year-old asked. He said he was inspired to do this by an activity he had participated in at the Old Fire House Teen Center (OFH) in downtown Redmond in which the teens wrote letters to celebrities and other well-known individuals. In his email to the Georgian prime minister, Casto wrote that the conflict he was researching was Georgia’s secession from the Soviet Union in 1991 and the country’s movement toward independence. He wrote that he had found a “number of sources analyzing the causal factors of this movement,” but he believed a primary source would be most valuable to his research. He asked if Garibashvili could explain his perspective on Georgia’s movement toward independence. While Casto emailed Garibashvili (after finding the contact information on the country’s government website) in hopes of learning more about the about Georgia, he did not expect any sort of response. So when he received a letter — both as an email and a physical copy in the mail a couple weeks later — from not just someone from Garibashvili’s office, but the prime minister himself, the teen was more than a little surprised. “I was delighted…I was kind of in disbelief for a little bit,” he said about receiving Garibashvili’s response. “It means a lot to me. It certainly speaks volumes of what it means to him.”

students like you who will continue to strengthen the important partnership between our two great nations in the future.” Garibashvili — who at 32, is the world’s youngest leader of a democratic country — told Casto that he was only a child when Georgia gained its independence 24 years ago, but vividly remembered that moment as it marked the beginning of his nation’s “recovery from Soviet rule.” “In 200 years under Russian rule, freedom and independence constituted the main idea and foundation upon which my nation set its hope,” Garibashvili wrote. “The same principles of liberty and freedom that inspired the American Revolution were embodied in Georgia’s drive for independence.”

Washington is bicycle friendly, but we need to be careful out there The League of American Bicyclists recently named Washington the nation’s top ranked “Bicycle Friendly State” for the eighth straight year. Here in Redmond, the city is tagged as the “Bicycle Capital of the Northwest,” so I’m sure that played a major part in boosting the state to the top of the list again. The annual Derby Days event features one of the country’s most popular criteriums and cyclists can always be found along the Sammamish River Trail, the roads and often racing at the nearby Marymoor Park velodrome. The city even has a “Redmond, Bicycle Capital of the Northwest” sign sporting a penny-farthing bicycle on it along Redmond Way for all to see. That’s a big deal around these parts. “Bicycling plays an important role in Washington’s quality of life; it gives Washingtonians a viable transportation option, encourages a healthy lifestyle and lowers our individual carbon footprint while supporting our local economies through bicycle tourism,” said Gov. Jay Inslee, who officially proclaimed May as Bike Month in Washington. “Being again named the most bike-friendly state inspires us to continue building on the progress we’ve made.” Andy Nystrom

OPINION

[4] June 5, 2015

While that press-release statement is all well and good, I can’t emphasize this enough: bicyclists and cars need to work together, pay attention to each other and share the road. It sounds like it would be easy to accomplish with the multitude of bike lanes and “sharrows” out there and people with smart heads on their shoulders, but accidents happen. People aren’t always watching out for each other because they’re in a hurry or talking on the phone while driving, or with bicyclists, taking chances while cycling alongside drivers and assuming that everyone can see each other. There are more bicyclists out there on the road these days and bad things can happen in an instant.

A Reporter article in April noted that a car was turning right at an intersection without stopping at the red light. A bicyclist rode through the crosswalk — traveling perpendicular to the direction the car was turning — and was struck by the driver, who “just didn’t see the rider there,” said Chris Shone, a traffic officer with the Redmond Police Department. Even for the most experienced drivers and cyclists, the roads can be tricky and we just have to always be alert for what’s around us and be courteous to others — to those in cars and on bikes alike. We’re all in this together. Enjoy the ride, but do it right.

Key people’s initiative omitted from column In last issue’s column, “No simple fix to school funding issue,” political reporter Jerry Cornfield omitted a key people’s initiative, which directed the Legislature to reduce class sizes. Back in November 2014, Washington voters approved Initiative 1351, which would reduce class size and add support staff in K-12 schools. According to King5, the initiative passed with close to 60 percent approval in King County. Can our state legislators find the political will to work for the good people of Washington state?

There is a local need for the Energize Eastside project In a recent letter to the editor, representatives from two neighborhood groups requested additional studies to prove the need for the Energize Eastside project. Puget Sound Energy (PSE) and independent consultants have conducted multiple studies that all point to an urgent local need for the project, making additional studies unnecessary. Energize Eastside — a project to build a new electric substation and higher capacity transmission lines — is driven by local growth. The existing electric system serving the Eastside area had its last major upgrade 50 years ago. Since that time, Eastside population has grown almost eight times, and that growth is expected to continue. Between 2010 and 2040, the Puget Sound Regional Council predicts Eastside employment to grow 73 percent and population to grow by more than a third. This drastic growth requires a

robust electric system that can support it. The most recent independent study was commissioned and funded by the City of Bellevue. Just like similar studies before it, the independent study concluded that there is a local need for the Energize Eastside project. In addition, the study included thorough analysis of various generation levels and connections with other regional utilities, and the results did not change. We understand the Energize Eastside project will bring change to the community — unwanted change, for some. But these studies, conducted by reputable electric system planning experts according to strict federal reliability requirements, point to a problem that we as a community need to solve.

Cartoonist Shiers does it right by provoking a reaction I admire letter writer David Chapin’s zeal to halt global warming. However, in criticizing Frank Shiers’ cartoon about “kayaktivists” last issue, Chapin’s passions prevent an understanding of the purposes of political cartooning. The best challenge assumptions, poke fun at leaders (powerful and grassroots), and above all provoke reactions. Rather than drawing

“smugly,” Shiers is reflecting a central, century-old purpose of American journalism. I am certain Shiers also has port officials, Alaska oil interests, Shell and the pro-business cheerleaders in his sights.

Editorial cartoon mocks serious issue Thank you for calling our attention to the issue of climate change with your editorial cartoon from the May 22 edition. You seem to imply that if one calls for a decrease in fossil fuel extraction yet continues to use fossil fuel products they are hypocritical. By doing so you fell right into the message trap laid out by the industry spin doctors. It is virtually impossible to not use petroleumbased products in modern society. However given the immediate and long term adverse consequences to human health and well being that result from our current energy choices, what would be hypocritical is to not speak up. With asthma rates on the rise, heart attacks and strokes triggered by “bad air days,” droughts in California and Eastern Washington, floods in Texas, famine in Africa, killer heat in India, we are threatened as a species right here and now. If warming trends continue more heat-related illnesses, more tropical diseases and more food-andwater-related conflicts are all coming our way. It is time for a transition away from dirty, harmful, unhealthy old fuels, to a modern clean energy economy. Rather than mocking the protesters you ought to be proposing solutions. It is time for the price of fossil fuels to fairly reflect the costs of their use. It is time to put a price on carbon.

Two men found guilty of vehicle prowls, automobile thefts in Redmond area spak@redmond-reporter.com

Recently, two men arrested by Redmond police were sentenced or are awaiting sentencing for two separate cases relating to vehicle prowls and automobile thefts. They were arrested at the end of last year and beginning of this year. In the first case, Zachery Stanfill was arrested on Dec. 30, 2014 after police connected him to a series of vehicle prowls and automobile thefts in the Overlake neighborhood of Redmond that took place in November 2014. Redmond Police Department Assistant Chief Kristi Wilson said police were able to link Stanfill to a black BMW, which was captured on surveillance video and was a “known associated vehicle from prior police contacts.”

Wilson said after he was arrested, Stanfill admitted in an interview that he had pawned property taken from a stolen van. He also admitted to attempting to steal additional vehicles and breaking into several vehicles on the Microsoft campus. Wilson said Stanfill was convicted of taking a motor vehicle without permission in the second degree, trafficking in stolen property in the first degree and three counts of vehicle prowling in the second degree. Wilson said Stanfill was sentenced to a residential drug offender sentencing alternative (DOSA), where he will serve between three and six months at an inpatient facility and have another 24 months of supervised probation. “Should he fail at the requirements of his su-

pervision, he will be sentenced to 17-22 months confinement,” she said. In the second case, Michael LeMay was arrested Jan. 2 after police investigated the theft of a van that occurred in December 2014, from the 2500 block of 152nd Avenue Northeast. The van was recovered the next day, but $10,000 worth of work equipment and tools stored inside were also stolen. Wilson said the van theft was captured on surveillance and LeMay was identified as the suspect. During an interview following his arrest, Wilson said LeMay admitted to being present during the theft and participating in the theft of the equipment. LeMay pleaded guilty to tracking in stolen property in the second degree and his sentencing is pending.

Bear Creek graduate receives Fulbright grant to teach in Brazil SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com

Cameron Kesinger will be the first person to admit that growing up in Sammamish, he did not know much about the world. It wasn’t until he enrolled in the Advanced Placement European History class at The Bear Creek School in Redmond and joined the school’s forensics (debate) team — where one topic of debate revolved around Somali pirates — that his horizons began to broaden. This led to the 2011 Bear Creek graduate — who is now 22 — to major in international studies and minor in Hispanic

studies at Macalester College in Minnesota. While he was there, Kesinger worked with one of his professors, helping refugees who were seeking asylum in the United States. He also worked for The Advocates for Human Rights, a nonprofit based in Minneapolis that implements “international human rights standards to promote civil society and reinforce the rule of law,” according to its website. With this organization, Kesinger also worked with asylum seekers. It was this work with immigrants — most of whom were from low-income backgrounds — and the injustices he witnessed that led Kesinger to

Program is an exchange program sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and awards about 8,000 grants every year to both American and foreign students as well as American scholars, visiting scholars, teachers and professionals. The program was established in 1946 and named for former Sen. J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, with the goal of increasing mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. As a Fulbright scholar, Kesinger will spend nine months in Brazil, starting in March 2016, teaching English and helping professors at public universities. He will be working about 20-25 hours a week and as stipulated by his grant, will spend another 20-25 hours a week somehow engaging with the community. He said this could be through taking classes, volunteering or an independent project. Kesinger is leaning toward either volunteering or an independent project. With volunteering, he said there are a number of non-governmental organizations in São Paulo (he won’t know where in Brazil he will be staying until fall, but this is where he would like to end up) that work with children, economic development or migrant populations. If he were to do an independent project, Kesinger said he would like to examine the population of undocumented immigrants from Bolivia in the country and study the local attitudes

toward this people’s migration to Brazil.

SLOW TO PROCESS

Kesinger first began considering applying for the Fulbright program last summer and started the process in September 2014. He described it as “quite frantic” as he only had a few weeks to fill out the application, secure letters of recommendation and prepare for an interview. In January, he received notice that he had passed the first stage in the process but didn’t get his hopes up as he knew people who had reached this point, as well, but did not end up receiving the grant. Kesinger was notified in March that he had received the grant and he said it took a few days for him to absorb the news and realize, “(he) really got this.” “It didn’t really hit me at first,” he said.

A THIRST FOR KNOWLEDGE AND SOCIAL JUSTICE

Rob Sorensen, who teaches Western civilization and art history at Bear Creek and has known Kesinger since he was in ninth grade, said he is not surprised Kesinger received the grant. “He’s exactly the kind of person that I would be happy to see taking the reins of leadership for the next generation,” Sorensen said about Kesinger. Sorensen, who also coaches Bear Creek’s forensics team, said Kesinger was a joy to teach, describing him as “smart and inquisitive” and “particularly excellent in class discussions.”

“Unlike a lot of my students, he never seemed to be too concerned about grades or whether he was preparing for a career — he simply seemed to want to learn,” Sorensen said. “He was also — from the start — incredibly compassionate and a bit idealistic. And I think it is this combination of idealism, compassion and love of learning for its own sake that makes him the perfect choice for an award like the Fulbright.” Gabriela Llanos, who had Kesinger in her Spanish class at Bear Creek, added that over the three years that she taught Kesinger, she saw some dramatic changes. She said initially, he was an introvert who was quiet and shy. But over time, he became passionate about learning another language and his desire to know more about other cultures and people became evident. “I put him in contact with a school in Uruguay, where he spent a month involved in a service project, helping build a school in a very remote and poor area,” Llanos said. “Upon his return, I met with Cameron several times, this time I met a completely different young man. He had become confident, he had strong opinions about social justice, he was eager to move to other countries to work in places of need.” Kesinger said he is still not sure exactly what he wants to do in the future but mentioned law school as a possibility as well as working in youth development.

Roadside survey of driver drug, alcohol use will be back in King County this weekend Researchers from the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation will be interviewing motorists and gathering data in six Washington counties in June as part of a research project aimed at measuring driver drug and alcohol use patterns. “Impaired drivers kill more than 200 people each year in Washington state. This research will help us better understand the extent of the problem,” said Washington Traffic Safety Commission Director Darrin Grondel. The project is being funded by the National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration and organized in collaboration with the Washington Traffic Safety Commission. Data collectors will work in King, Spokane, Yakima, Snohomish, Whatcom and Kitsap counties and at five separate locations within each of those counties. For drivers, participation in this research is voluntary and anonymous. Last June they interviewed a total of 926 drivers. Motorists who volunteer for the survey will be asked questions about their drug and alcohol use patterns and they will be asked to provide

breath, blood and saliva samples. If they complete the entire survey, which takes about 20 minutes, they will receive a stipend of $60. Motorists can drop out of the survey at any time along the way. Researchers will approach cars when they are stopped at intersections (traffic lights or stop signs) and ask for volunteers. Motorists who are interested in participating are guided to a nearby parking lot where the survey takes place. Preliminary results from the June 2014 survey found that most drivers (88 percent or 768 of the 877 respondents who

younger generation wanting to buy,” he said. “You didn’t see that (5-7 years ago).” Zender said a number of things can be the cause of this including increasing rent prices (the average in Redmond is about $2,000) and low interest rates. A recent report put out by John L. Scott Real Estate agreed with the latter, stating that at about 3.9 percent, interest rates are at a historical low. Zender said there are also a number of state-sponsored or state-subsidized programs buyers can apply for to assist with finances. “We’re seeing that at all levels of the market right now,” he said. The John L. Scott report also stated that 2015 has seen the “best start ever for sales activity.” “Based on cumulative pending home sales in the four county areas (King, Snohomish, Pierce and Kitsap),” the report states, “sales activity in the first five months of 2015 is outpacing the previous record year of 2005. But this time the housing market is built on a strong foundation of qualified buyers.” Zender offered some advice to both buyers looking to purchase a

according to the website. Zender said Washington in general has a healthy housing market because jobs are not leaving the state. “We have jobs coming in,” he said. More jobs are becoming available in Redmond and the same can be said about housing as evidenced by the continued construction of housing developments, mixed-use buildings and more throughout the city. Zender said the construction shows that the area is bouncing back from the recession as there has been a pause in development when the market downturned. All of this makes for a hot sellers’ market, Zender said, as home values have been on the rise. He said home values are up 8.8 percent compared to last year and they are projected to increase another 7.5 percent in the next year, as well. Currently, the median home value in Redmond is $586,000 and the average list price is $745,000. Zender added that the sellers’ market can also be attributed to a demand that is outgrowing the current supply. “You are seeing a lot of the

“It’s incredible,” the girls’ adviser Shannon Settle observed, “You just don’t realize how many problems are caused by a lack of clean water.” About 75 participants from the Redmond community rallied around the Chicas last Saturday for the Water Walk. The goal was simple: to simulate the daily journey Kenyan women and children make in search of clean water. “We want to raise awareness for women who have to do this every day,” Johnson commented. According to Shannon Settle, the girls hope to make people realize that a lack of clean water is more than just an abstract global problem — it is a problem that keeps children out of school all across the world, and contributes to a multitude of waterborne diseases. Many African families cannot send their children to school because the children must spend their days carrying water to their homes. To simulate the burden of carrying water for their families, participants in the Water Walk carried 25-pound jugs of water on their head around the RHS track. They were encouraged to carry the jugs for as long as they could manage. Although some could carry the water for only a quarter of a lap, others made it almost two miles. But none of the participants managed to match the average fivemile trek Kenyans make every day. As the hot sun beat down upon their shoulders, the participants of the Water Walk gained a new perspective on

answered the question) believe that marijuana impairs a person’s ability to drive. However, of the people who said they used marijuana within the last year, 44 percent said they drove within two hours of using marijuana, or while they were impaired. Drivers who said they used marijuana and drove within the last year were also asked if they thought marijuana degraded their driving ability, 87 percent said no, 25 percent felt that driving while high made them a better driver and only 3 percent said marijuana degrades their driving ability.

home as well as sellers putting their homes on the market. He said buyers should take the time to get pre-approved for a loan ahead of time by a local lender who knows the market. The lender should also have underwriting authority and the ability to move quickly once an offer is made. Zender said buyers should also make sure to get all of their paperwork for an offer in as soon as possible as one piece of property could have anywhere between two and 19 offers. Another way to put yourself in a stronger position when it comes to competing with other offers is being able to close on a transaction fast. He also advised that buyers should work with a local realtor familiar with the market and a mortgage company that is willing to go to bat for you. For sellers, Zender said one of the first things to do is to get your property in the best position to look its best. This means cleaning any clutter in the yard, garage or elsewhere. “Your house is on an interview (with potential buyers),” he said. In addition, Zender advised that sellers should interview one to three realtors or go by referral.

the struggles of Kenyan women and children for whom carrying water is a daily struggle. Most were surprised at the weight of the water and the amount of effort it took to carry it only a short distance around the track. RHS junior Ally Collier observed, “I was completely exhausted after one lap, I can’t imagine doing multiple miles every day.” Throughout the walk, the Chicas continually emphasized that they wanted people to realize just how lucky they are to have access to clean water every day. The event was filmed by ABC News as part of a documentary about Chicas for Change and their efforts to provide clean water in Kenya. The Chicas’ future goals include raising $10,000 for schools in Ecuador by the girls’ senior year. Also, they intend to take a trip to Kenya this summer to learn first hand about the importance of clean water in Kenyan communities. And, of course, they intend to continue their work here raising awareness about clean water and sanitation. The Chicas collected about $700 in donations at the Water Walk, which may go toward building wells in Kenya to provide more access to clean water. As the weary participants straggled off the field at the end of the Water Walk, one thing was clear: none of them will underestimate the importance of running water again.

strong credit ratings contributed to low interest rates of 2.22 percent when the district’s bond underwriters marketed and priced the refunding bonds. The bonds refunded $31.265 million of the district’s UTGO Refunding Bonds, 2004 and 2004B, and $136.5 million of the district’s UTGO Bonds, 2006 and 2007. Barbara Posthumus, director of business services for the district, said, “It is our goal to prudently manage the resources our community has entrusted us with. Refinancing debt at lower interest rates has helped achieve that goal. Our timing in the market was very good, resulting in net savings of over $17.3 million in lower debt service between now and 2025.”

The “AA+” rating is the highest rating assigned by S&P to any school district in the state. It is shared by only three districts: Bellevue, Issaquah and now Lake Washington. S&P rates the state of Washington, which is the main source of funding for school districts, “AA+”, as well. Moody’s assigns its highest possible rating of “Aaa” to the district’s UTGO debt, based on the large tax base, strong wealth levels and structurally balanced financial operations. Lake Washington is one of five districts in the state to attain this elite credit rating. The others are Seattle, Mercer Island, Bellevue and Issaquah. The district’s very

The Lake Washington School District (LWSD) locked in a savings of over $17.3 million on May 14 by lowering the interest cost on $167.8 million of its debt through issuing refunding bonds. The district recently received a Standard & Poor’s (S&P) Rating Services upgrade from “AA” to “AA+” for its existing debt and for the Unlimited Tax General Obligation Refunding Bonds, 2015. The rating has a stable outlook. The refunding bonds were priced by the district’s bond underwriters on May 14. Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) assigned its highest possible rating, “Aaa,” to the bonds. Dr. Traci Pierce, superintendent, said, “One of our goals is to use resources effectively and be fiscally responsible. We seek these kinds of opportunities to save taxpayer dollars.” S&P stated the upgraded rating reflects their view of LWSD’s: • Large and growing tax base; • Good financial

Ask Senator Andy Hill... ?

Why does his budget fail to invest enough in our local schools? Andy Hill’s budget* falls far short of fully funding K-12 public schools, including STEM and programs for struggling students.

Why is he restricting local control of our schools and increasing class sizes? Hill is sponsoring legislation+ that limits our ability to invest local funds to reduce class sizes. His budget also guts the class size initiative approved by one million voters last November. His plan would also eliminate our local ability to fund teachers for classes like AP and IB courses.

Why is he cutting local teachers’ pay? Educators have gone six years without a state cost-of-living increase. Hill’s budget includes a small 3 percent COLA over the next two years with no change in health care support. Educators have not seen an increase in health care funding in ﬁve years. Given rising health care costs, many educators will see their paychecks go down. (Meanwhile, Hill and other legislators are slated to get an 11 percent raise, and more money for health care.)^

Call Senator Hill at 800-562-6000 & Tell Him: • Don’t raise our kids’ class sizes • Don’t cut our teachers’ pay • Don’t restrict local support for our schools Paid for by the 85,000 members of the Washington Education Association

Fiber art brings Audubon community together fer metaphors for coming together as communities, healing and creating new beauty from old as several projects demonstrated like the collaboratively created Huichol-style yarn painting by fourth graders. After viewing the artwork at each display, visitors read a question posed on the cover of a flip book, lifted the flap to find the answer and then used their pencil overtop of a raised design to create a rubbing image iconic of the display in their International Night passport. There are 66 docents, parents specially trained to provide once-monthly

Bhardwaj will donate percentage of profits from Kickstarter campaign to Washington FIRST Robotics Rahul Bhardwaj, who grew up in the Redmond area and graduated from the International School in Bellevue, has launched a Kickstarter campaign for The Modulus, “the world’s most functional wallet. The patent-pending modulus design was created with minimalist and modular design principles in mind, creating a low profile versatile wallet with 16 tools integrated into the construction.” Visit www. kickstarter.com/ projects/1800086574/ the-modulus According to Bhardwaj, he worked at two start ups in the past and logged about 1,000 hours

of robotics a year in high school. He’s now at Purdue University and credits where he is now to his

art classes throughout the year. The Art Docent program, a PTSA-sponsored series, strives to provide opportunities for students to learn art vocabulary, art techniques, creative problem solving, interdisciplinary knowledge and cultural and artistic awareness and appreciation. Marchione also toured the “Marketplace” portion of International Night where families shared food, artifacts and cultural experiences from their home countries, which spanned the globe from Libya to Ireland.

Redmond Mayor John Marchione joined John James Audubon Elementary School art docents and families to explore how students interpreted the “Fiber Art: Many Strands, One World,” the school’s International Night art walk theme on May 28. The art walk showcased projects by each class, kindergarten through fifth grade. These projects were inspired by artists worldwide who use a range of techniques such as natural dyes, embroidery, felting, batik and weaving to add depth, texture and color in innovative ways.

Walk for mental health in the 11th Annual NAMIWalks Washington The 11th Annual NAMIWalks Washington, benefiting the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) of Washington state and its 22 affiliates statewide, will be held tomorrow at Marina Park, 25 Lakeshore Drive, in Kirkland. Check-in and family-friendly entertainment will begin at 8 a.m., with step-off for the 5K Walk at 9 a.m. The walk will be held rain or shine. The Eastside affiliate has offices at the Together Center in Redmond. “NAMIWalks Washington has become a tradition for so many Washingtonians living with a mental illness and their loved ones,” says Lauren Simonds, executive director of NAMI Washington. “It gives everyone the opportunity to show their support of NAMI Washington by raising much needed funds and awareness.” Proceeds from the event benefit NAMI Washington and its 22 local affiliates to improve the quality of life for individuals living with mental illness and their families through a multi-pronged program of education, support and advocacy for persons living with mental illness, their families and the wider community. “Over the past 10 years, the walk has grown into a festival-like celebration,” comments Simonds. “For the 11th anniversary, we are planning the best walk yet. This year, we plan to have food trucks, street performers, face painters, as well as a DJ and stage performances — so there will be something for all participants.” Registration is free. To register as an individual walker, form a team, volunteer or become a corporate sponsor, visit www.namiwalks.org/ washington or email tlane@ namiwa.org.

Positive Ally to host semi-annual 5K

The Lake Washington High School PTSA announced the five winners of the 2015 Sheeley Scholarship Award: From left, Grace Muenz, Christopher Leavitt, Brooks Klinker, Kim Veldee and Zena Halaweh. Courtesy photo

LWHS students receive Sheeley Award The Lake Washington High School PTSA announced the five winners of the 2015 Sheeley Scholarship Award. The winners are Grace Muenz, Christopher Leavitt, Brooks Klinker, Kim Veldee and Zena Halaweh. The scholarship is named in honor of a beloved former school

counselor, Louise Sheeley, and recognizes students for outstanding achievements in school and in their community. The scholars will each receive $1,000 toward their college tuition. Muenz will be attending University of San Diego; Leavitt will be attending Cal Poly;

Klinker will be attending University of Southern California; Veldee will be attending Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and Halaweh will be attending Western Washington University. Lake Washington High School serves both the Redmond and Kirkland areas.

Tomorrow at Positive Ally, an after-school leadership program in Redmond Ridge, will host its fourth semiannual 5K Fun Run. The race begins at 8:30 a.m., at the Redmond Ridge Commons Park at 10315 Cedar Park Crescent N.E. Registration is online at www.positiveally.com. At Positive Ally’s previous fun runs, up to 175 people have attended — no matter the weather. “We want to be involved in our community in ways that promote healthy living. Fitness is a huge part of our after-school programming, so extending this into our community was a natural step for us,” said Celina Williams, community outreach manager for Positive Ally. Positive Ally’s fourthand fifth-grade students

conduct a running club in the fall, as part of Positive Ally’s emphasis on health and wellness for its students. The first year, the group did a race in Seattle, but with that came the hassles of commuting and parking. “We thought, ‘Why not just host one here, instead?’” said Aman Narula, founder and owner of Positive Ally. What started as a simple need for Positive Ally students and their families has grown into a community event. “We hosted the first in December of 2013,” said Narula. “It was freezing, but about 100 people still came out. I think that shows that the community wants these kinds of activities right here. Our numbers have only grown since. We are expecting a turnout of 350 people this time.” The 5K route is unof-

ficial, but takes two laps around Redmond Ridge. Participants have the option of doing just one or two loops, which makes the event really accessible for all levels of runners, walkers and rollers. After the run, families stick around chatting, taking refreshments and taking race photos. Some kids, boundless in their energy, play a game of pick up soccer. “The fun run is a great way to promote and support an active lifestyle for our students and their families. We’re always looking for ways to engage and innovate in our community,” said Narula. Positive Ally serves about 120 families in the Redmond and Sammamish communities through its after school and summer programs. The summer program begins June 22.
