Her stop at William C. Jack School provided an up-close look into the institution’s programs and challenges, sparking ideas for future implementations to better help students achieve their individual academic goals.“Isee the children in our schools as the future of our state, and (we) want to make sure we’re doing everything to support their well-being — everything from their academic success to their social-emotional well-being and mental health,” Hoffman said. “I think for many of our kids, school is a place where they feel safe, and we want them (schools) to be safe, welcoming, inclusive settings for them to thrive in.”The K-8 school is currently facing challenges with recruitment and retention of staff. Hoffman said the first week of class, which began Aug. 8, has already seen the resignation of a few teachers.

W hen Daniel Sabillon was first applying for the job of downtown manager for the city of Glendale, he saw what it entailed and was a bit overwhelmed by it. But, he decided to apply anyway as he believed he could make a big impact in DowntownFollowingGlendale.ahighly competitive process that resulted in a nationwide candidate pool, the city of Glendale’s Office of Economic Development announced the hiring of the position, and much to his excitement, Sabillon was selected. “I know the challenges that are ahead, and I know Downtown really well,” Sabillon said. “So, even though there are challenges, I feel that, with this job, I can really make an impact.” Right off the bat, Sabillon said he wants to make everyone aware of the fact that “great things are going to happen.” He sees a bright future for Downtown Glendale.“Downtown Glendale, it’s got so much opportunity,” he said. “I really want to magnify that to the entire Valley and into the entire United States so we can really drive traffic down here.”

“It’s already a challenge to recruit teachers for the school year, and then to have some resign without much notice really makes it challenging,” she said. “Then, you are left in a position where oftentimes district leaders will step in to fill those classrooms, but it really creates a big challenge for the system.”

“We have an awesome staff, and we want to make sure that they are ready for the academic portion as well as the social-emotional,” Principal Rebecca Presley said. “We know that that means we have to come alongside and support them as well, so there’s a lot of opportunities for professional development.”

To further enrich their programming, Hoffman and school officials have looked into introducing new curricula and a school gardening program. They are also hoping to establish more opportunities for after-school involvement, such as clubs, sports and tutoring, which were abruptly stopped due to the pandemic.

“It’s really important that we’re thinking about what supports are available in schools and having the academic supports,” she said. “But then, also opportunities to expand on their learning in areas like music and art and the dual-language program — those types of opportunities where schools are the main place that offer those types of extracurricular opportunities for all kids.”

“It’s very exciting,” he said. “I think the biggest thing is that I’m passionate about it. Once you have a passion for something, it’s really not a job, it’s just your life, and I’m very excited.”

He said what he was able to accomplish during his time as GCU’s operations manager will serve him well in this“Justposition.withthe events that we planned and the success that we had with those events,” Sabillon said. “Just making sure that people have fun and making sure that there’s an event for everyone. I think I can transfer all that experience over here to Downtown Glendale to say, ‘Hey, let’s get some events down here, let’s get more people down here,’ which, in turn, is going to help out all the merchants in Downtown Glendale.”

Aside from the marketing aspect he has been tasked with, Sabillon has been tasked with establishing an online presence for Downtown Glendale through local events and campaigns that will regularly bring visitors to the area and really help establish it. He said it is a huge part of his plan in helping the businesses in the area.

As a whole, Downtown excites Sabillon for many reasons; he listed the Downtown reinvestment project project and the history the area has. But ultimately, what excites him the most about Downtown Glendale is the people.“I think the thing that I’m most excited about are the people,” he said. “The people are the best thing about Downtown Glendale, and that’s what makes it what it is.”

“Social media is a force right now,” he said. “Almost everyone has access to some type of social media app, whether it be Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, LinkedIn, whatever the case is, there’s always eyes on it. So, the plan is to draw more eyes to Downtown Glendale and really capitalize on the trends that are happening to drive more business in Downtown Glendale.“Ifwe drive more business into Downtown Glendale, the merchants are going to be financially successful.”Sabillon’s first day on the job was Aug. 1.

Paula Davis of Glendale said she suffered from persistent knee pain for over 10 years and that the pain escalat ed to the point where she was unable to enjoy traveling. She underwent knee replacement surgery with Khoury in April and was so happy with the re sults that she has already scheduled to replace her other knee.

“I like to travel with family, and it got to the point over the last few years where I could really walk around any more. It really significantly impacted my ability to enjoy life. So far it’s been really good after getting the new knee. I’m already looking forward to my next trip in November,” Davis said. “We are encouraged by the contin ued interest in robotic surgical technol ogy at our hospital as evidenced by the growing numbers of patients seeking advanced treatment options,” Abrazo West CEO Hans Driessnack said. “In addition to the Mako robot, Abrazo West’s surgical services also offer the daVinci robot for general surgery and Globus ExcelsiusGPS robotic platform for spinal fusion procedures.”

“Using the Mako we can create a 3D map of each patient’s individual anat omy,” said Christina Khoury, M.D. “The technology allows me to develop each patient’s individual surgical plan before entering the operating room. I can see the patient’s bone structure, identify the appropriate implant size, orientation and alignment for each pa tient’s unique anatomy.

he Valley housing market’s cool-down is occurring at different rates in different cities and towns, according to a leading analyst. The Cromford Report earlier this month said that Queen Creek, Buckeye and Maricopa have become the most attractive areas for homebuyers to score a big deal while Phoenix is among the cities where buyers will have to wait a month before they can try to barter their way to a better deal.

The balance between supply and demand is now so tilted toward buyers that they could be now calling the shots in Buckeye, Queen Creek and Maricopa, the Cromford Report said, adding that it may depend on their experience in the real estate game.

The Cromford Report identified five other communities where neither buyer nor seller has a distinct advantage in sale negotiations. They include Tempe, Chandler, Surprise, Peoria and Gilbert. But it’s sellers in those five areas that need to be a little nervous, it added.

Builders apparently are slowly reacting to the changing housing scene.

It reported that as of June 30, 17,788 single-family building permits have been issued so far this year in Maricopa and Pinal counties year to date — down only slightly from 18,803 last year for the first six months of 2021.

“There were only 2,248 single-family permits issued in June, which is the lowest monthly total since May 2020,” the Cromford Report said. At the same time, multifamily developers aren’t slowing down at all and are at what the Cromford Report called “a full-bore gung-ho status.”

“Single-family permits are now dropping in response to the weak demand but probably not as fast as they should,” the Cromford Report said.

“Last year there were 6,871 at the same point and that was considered a lot,” the Cromford Report said. “There were 1,890 issued in June, making it the fourth busiest month ever.”

“Here buyers now hold a distinct negotiating advantage and have a total of 2,243 active single-family detached listings to choose from,” it said. “This compares with 675 just three months ago.“Because the majority of these areas cater largely to first-time buyers who are less experienced, it can take a few weeks for these buyers to realize how strong a hand of cards they hold.”

The Cromford Report also suggested bigger changes in the Valley’s housing market could occur before the end of the“Pricesyear. have looked wobbly for the last two months,” it said. “But as buyers start to ﬂex their muscles, we should be prepared for more serious consequences. While we cannot forecast accurately several months out, it would be reasonable based on current trends to expect significant declines in average prices, median prices and average price per square foot by the end of 2022. Current trends can — and often do — change, so this is not baked in, just a reasonable base case.” It also said the rapid growth in inventory might slow down soon but without a corresponding uptick in demand. “What is going to re-start demand?” it asked. “The most obvious answers are that either interest rates have to come down or home prices have to come down. Either or both of these can increase demand so we can get back to a balanced market again.”

“Astute sellers will realize that the situation is very ﬂuid and slipping away from them,” the report said. “At the current rate of change, Gilbert will become a buyer’s market by the end of the first week in August. Tempe is only a day or two behind Gilbert, while Surprise, Chandler and Peoria will probably become buyer’s markets by mid-August.”

“Sinema took Wall Street money while killing tax on investors,” reads the headline from the Aug. 13 article written by the AP’s Brian Slodysko, and prospective opponents read it as a real opportunity — including possible opponents from within Sinema’s own party.

Whoever said that “presidential politics is twothirds theater” and that the White House is a grand stage should have taken a closer look at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue.There, on Capitol Hill, sits an institution called the “world’s greatest deliberative body” by some and the “world’s most exclusive club” by others. You know it best by its proper name: the U.S. Senate. Among the 100 who serve are more than a handful who readily embrace the spectacle, pomp and prestige that comes with the title of “senator.”

You swipe at the ball with a wedge. It comes to rest — somewhere. That’s one stroke. Unlike, say, casting your election ballot. Which may be a vote or may not, depending on which political party you’re in and whether your preferred candidate wins the election. Or wishing a barista “good morning,” which risks using the wrong pronoun and creating a controversy where you only meant to be kind. Or deciding whether or not to pay an exorbitant sum to see Bruce Springsteen, because being ripped off by the voice of the working man would still get you in to hear “Born to Run” live — a bucket list item — but also subject you to a lengthy political rant, which you would absolutely file under B. Not for Bruce or for Boss. But under B for “more bull.” Over time, I seem to have shifted away from doing things that will likely deliver more such nonsense: scrolling social media, watching or reading the news, going to Fourth of July barbecue picnics, striking up a conversation in line at Bashas’. Instead, I try to hit golf balls on all the days of the week that end in the letter -y. The sand shot rises out of the bunker and nestles beside the hole — or you skull it over a condo.

Let me begin by saying that this is not a column about golf, though it begins with a story involving golf. Or, to be specific, a thought about golf. I was catching up with a buddy from high school, lamenting the state of mankind: politics, the workplace, gender relations, sports. Our friendship spans four decades, so we had a lot of complaining to do. We also share a golf addiction, so naturally the game was a topic.Nongolfers, far more sane than actual golfers, having not subjected themselves to torturous years of chasing a dimpled white ball over hills, through deserts, into lakes and bushes, behind trees, and occasionally into holes in the ground, often ask golfers, “What the hell do you see in the game? It looks miserable.” I’ve never had the perfect answer, until that talk. I haven’t experienced many epiphanies, but this was one. Golf is loveable for the exactly the same reason so many of us detest everything else, from MAGA loons vs. progressive scolds, the latest episode of “Love Island,” Hollywood preaching, Inﬂation Reduction Acts that won’t reduce inﬂation, election controversies, Supreme Court controversies, and even the PGA Tour vs. LIV Golf controversy. Playing golf involves zero bull. Unlike virtually everything else in the 21st century.You swing, you hit the ball, you count a stroke. Tally the strokes, that’s your score. The ball goes in the hole or not.

The late Robert C. Byrd of West Virginia often spoke of the Senate as if he had confused both time and place. That was not due to diminished cognitive skills, though his Senate service spanned more than a half-century and concluded with his death in 2010. Instead, it was due to his inﬂated sense of status about both the institution and his own reputation there. Byrd would employ his photographic memory and excessive sense of self-worth to recount episodes of political antiquity from the Roman Senate, creating word pictures recalling a group clad in togas, philosophizing and filibustering. That “Byrd’s-eye” view was cinematic in scope — a combination of “Ben-Hur,” “Gladiator” and (surprisingly — or not) “Animal House.” A cinematic Senate? Better check the spelling… It’s really a “Sinematic Senate” these days, courtesy of Arizona’s Kyrsten Sinema. She came into the chamber with her own sense of Hollywood fashion and attitude, wearing thigh-high boots like Jane Fonda’s “Barbarella,” employing a persona akin to Sigourney Weaver in “Alien” and, most recently, enacting a controversial high-finance provision that would warm the cold, calculating heart of Michael Douglas as Gordon Gekko in “Wall Street.”

Sinema named a price for supporting Joe Biden’s inaccurately named Inﬂation Reduction Act, insisting on lower taxes — not for everyday Americans, but for the rich and famous.

Of course, the perceptions of a partisan press aren’t as important to Sinema’s political viability as are the reactions of the folks back home… and it is readily apparent that what Washington might collectively regard as Kyrsten’s “LBJ moment” isn’t a good look for her at all in Arizona. What’s good for Wall Street is not necessarily good for Main Street or for your street… and it is absolutely objectionable on most streets within the city limits of Flagstaff, Tempe and Tucson. But it isn’t just the indoctrinated as opposed to educated from our state-supported universities who take umbrage; concern is also found among those from the School of Hard Knocks, who have invested their own sweat equity in “bootstrap” businesses and “momand-pop” enterprises, only to see a SineSinema as cinema

Phase One of C|303 spans almost 113 acres and more than 1.75 million square feet at the northwest corner of Loop 303 and Camelback Road. Construction on Phase One begins this month and includes three buildings totaling 375,660 square feet.

The West Valley is getting an addition to its wine scene. Set to open its doors Wednesday, Aug. 31, Turquoise Wine Cellar and Tasting Room is looking to share its passion for wine and offer opportunities to explore varietals from around the world in an approachable way.

“It’s just meant to bring people in and have a whole experience about wine that doesn’t exist out here at the moment.”

“Everything about it is supposed to be an experience super approachable, budget friendly, a way to come in and explore and come back and keep exploring because we have so many options,” owner Jen Sinconis said. “But also, the ambiance is going to be super cool.”Sinconis moved to the Valley from the Seattle area in 2020 and quickly realized that the options for wine tasting in the area were few and far between. She and her former neighbor, and now friend, Laura Hernandez are looking to change that. “We are really looking for something that’s more of an experience,” Sinconis said. “We have a lot of restaurants here that have wine menus. I’m not going to say they’re good or bad, but this is really meant to be more of a wine experience.

Turquoise will offer two monthly wine club options as well.

“Most of our distribution partners are smaller,” she said. “We are working with more boutique winemakers and boutique distributors. We are a very relationship driven business. The (wines) that are going into the big chains —BevMo!, Total Wine, Costco — you’re not going to ﬁnd those wines with us, because that’s not the type of business relationship we’re looking to build.”Approachability will also be a big thing for Sinconis. “We’re really focusing on not being a pretentious wine shop,” she said. “You can come in and literally not know anything other than we have red wine and we have white wine, and that’s totally ﬁne. We’re going to help you get there.”Despite not being open yet, Sinconis said the response to Turquoise from the community has been incredible. She is greatly looking forward to opening her doors.“People are so excited, and our social media is just going bonkers,” she said. “People are just really starved for this type of thing out here. I’m very hopeful that it’s going to be like, ‘Oh, this is exactly what the community needed.’”

“Requirements for industrial space have become increasingly sophisticated, but C|303 has anticipated those needs,” said Merit Partners President Kevin Czerwinski. “Its diversity of buildings and connectivity will support cutting-edge logistics and supply chain users. These are exciting opportunities in the Loop 303 corridor that underscore the depth and breadth of our market.”

“People are moving here; this area is just exploding,” she added. “I see people from Washington, Oregon and California just moving to this side of the Valley in droves, and from what I can tell, they all have a similar reaction to what I did, is, ‘Oh, my god, there’s no wine.’ So, I think the need is there.”

“There aren’t a lot of good places to go to drink wine in this area,” Sinconis said. “But also, there is not a lot to do for couples if you want to go out. You can go out to eat dinner … but there aren’t a lot of experiences. So, we just want to bring a place where people can come in, be a part of a wine club, have the ability to go to events, do classes and really bring this experience.”

JLL projects the Loop 303 corridor to grow to more than 50 million square feet of industrial space within the next ﬁve years, supported by sectors including e-commerce, manufacturing, food and beverage, and third-party logistics.

On top of that, the wines that will be found at Turquoise will not be easily found anywhere else in the Valley. Sinconis said she is working with more boutique-style winemakers.

The ceremony, which will take place at halftime of the team’s regular season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 11, at State Farm Stadium, will make it ofﬁcial.

Bidwill, who passed away in October of 2019 at the age of 88, had a lifelong association with the Cardinals that spanned eight decades. After his father, Hall of Fame owner Charles W. Bidwill Sr., purchased the team, Bill worked as a ball boy when he was a child.

The Arizona Cardinals have recently added tight end Josh Hokit and offensive lineman Cody Ford. Hokit, who spent the past two seasons on the San Francisco 49ers’ practice squad after entering the league as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2020 with the 49ers from Fresno State, was signed from free agency. While at Fresno State, Hokit spent four seasons on both the football and wrestling teams from 2016 to 2019. He played 44 games as a fullback and rushed for 1,260 yards and 17 touchdowns on 303 carries, while catching 38 passes for 260 yards and a touchdown.Hokit was also a two-time All-America selection as a wrestler, earning trips to the NCAA Championship in both his junior and senior seasons. Ford was acquired via trade with the Buffalo Bills. The Cardinals sent a 2023 ﬁfth-round draft pick to the Bills in Fordexchange.played 38 games (29 starts) the past three seasons with Buffalo after he was selected 38th overall in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft from Oklahoma. A college teammate of Kyler Murray and Marquise Brown with the Sooners, Ford played 15 games last season and made seven starts at guard. The 25-year-old Ford has experience starting at both guard and tackle in his NFL career, including starting 15 games at right tackle as a rookie in 2019.

Upon graduating from Georgetown University and serving in the United States Navy, he took on a full-time role with the Cardinals in 1960. He was often recognized for his contributions and accomplishments as Cardinals owner. In 2017, he was enshrined in the Arizona Sports Hall of Fame, which honors those who have made signiﬁcant contributions to the state’s athletics community. In 2010, he was inducted into the Sports Faith Hall of Fame in Lake Forest, Ill. Finally, at its December 2010 commencement exercises, Northern Arizona University awarded him an honorary doctor of humane letters degree for “his contributions to the university, his community and his profession.”

Brownlow said Desert Heights had already been looking at purchasing the UWorld program prior to being selected for the grant, but with being a Title I school, she said they wanted to see if they could get the grant ﬁrst.

“It is about giving (the students) the opportunity to earn that college credit to help lower the cost because it is so expensive,” Brownlow said.

Additionally, Desert Heights was the only school located in Arizona to have received the grant from UWorld. Being a smaller school with roughly 250 students in its high school program, Brownlow was ecstatic to receive the grant.“We’re not one of the bigger high schools; we’re also a charter school,” she said. “So, it feels really good.”

The grant from UWorld gives Desert Heights free access to its online learning tools for AP courses for all available AP subjects throughout the 202223 school year, as well as personalized startup training and ongoing support.

UWorld, a leader in online learning to prepare for high-stakes exams, recently dished out more than $130,000 in AP resources and support to 21 high schools in 14 states.Among those 21 high schools was Desert Heights Preparatory Academy in the Desert Heights School District.

Brownlow said Desert Heights applied for the grant just prior to the deadline at the end of March, and found out within a few weeks that they were going to be one of the recipients.

The program that UWorld offers is one that Brownlow really thinks serves students who will be participating in AP testing well, so she is excited that her program is getting access to it. She said Desert Heights is using the program for its AP U.S. history and AP government classes.

“There’s a misconception that students in AP courses don’t need much support,” said Chandra S. Pemmasani, M.D., UWorld’s founder and CEO. “But after helping millions of medical, law and accounting students understand very difﬁcult concepts, we know that’s not true.

As the prices at colleges continue to rise, getting students college credit while still in high school is the top priority.

For many, abortion as a form of birth control should be considered a homicide. For others, any restriction on a woman’s ability to control whether she delivers a baby is a sexist violation of a basic human right. As we attempt to have an ongoing national discussion on these issues, it is impossible to do so unless everyone has a common reference point. Most of the people who argue passionately about Roe v. Wade have likely never read the case. Many, if not most, misunderstand what it actually said. By way of background, in 1965, the Supreme Court established a constitutional right to privacy in Griswold v. Connecticut. The court did not rely on the actual text of the Constitution. Instead, it held that the guarantees listed in the Bill of Rights withoutrightationofshort,penumbras.createdInthespirittheConstitu-establishedconstitutionaltoprivacyanyneed

On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court reversed Roe v. Wade in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health and held there is no federal constitutional right to an abortion. Nothing in the Dobbs decision prohibits abortions.

pregnant. During the ﬁrst trimester, a state government could not regulate abortion. During the second, the state could impose restrictions. During the last trimester, the state could regulate abortions and could even prohibit them entirely.In1983, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor noted that the framework of Roe attached abortion rights to a point before the fetus was viable. As medical science advanced, this point would move closer to the date of conception. She therefore concluded that Roe v. Wade was “clearly on a collision course with itself.”

But now, a state government can restrict, or even prohibit, abortions as long as the state has a rational basis for believing that the restriction serves a legitimate government interest. In the Dobbs case, the Supreme Court applied this rational basis test to a Mississippi law that prohibits abortions after 15 weeks (except for medical emergency or severe fetal abnormality) and found it to be constitutional. If you strongly support our constitutional structure of separation of powers, and if you believe it defeats the purpose of having a written constitution if the words do not mean what they say, then you may view the Dobbs decision as being correct and logical.

“We’re excited to be able to promote this,” said Amanda Brownlow, AP coordinator and college and career advisor for ninth and 10th grade at Desert Heights. “We’re excited to see where it goes and hope we can continue this partnership with them.”

However, those cases are comparatively rare, which is why most people are either pro-life with exceptions or pro-choice with limits.

Although it is possible to perform a Google search and ﬁnd women who claim to be proud of their abortion, I have never heard anyone say, “I think abortions are a great idea. I think all women should have at least three.”

Bioethics issues surrounding abortion often generate difﬁcult discussions. For example, there are pregnancy-related conditions that cannot produce a baby, such as ectopic or molar pregnancies. Women undergoing fertility treatment may seek embryo reduction in order to prevent unhealthy multiple births. What if the mother needs to be treated for cancer? Should treating any of these medical conditions be considered an abortion?

Consider this. Kindness is anything that lifts another person. A wise person once said that it’s nice to be important but more important to be nice. So being nice and listening to those around us might avoid some embarrassment and even make us some money. For example, when Tommy Bolt was on the golf tour, he established a well-deserved reputation for his temper. Once in a tournament, he drew a caddie who had a reputation for being a talker, so Bolt told him to keep quiet and restricted his conversation to “Yes, Mr. Bolt” and “No, Mr. Bolt.” As luck would have it, one of Bolt’s shots stopped close to a tree. He had to hit the ball under a branch and over a lake to reach the green. He carefully analyzed the situation and made his decision. However, as it frequently happens, halfway talking to his caddie and halfway talking to himself, he asked, “Should I hit it with my 5-iron?” Having been duly warned, the caddie responded, “No, Mr. Bolt.” Bolt’s temper and pride prompted him to say, “What do you mean, not a 5-iron? Just watch this shot!” The caddie, still following instructions, said, “No, Mr. Bolt!” But Bolt wasn’t listening. He took dead aim and hit the shot beautifully to the green. It stopped a couple of feet from the hole. With a look of self-satisfaction, Bolt handed the caddie his 5-iron and commented, “What do you think about that? And it’s OK for you to talk now.” “Mr. Bolt, that wasn’t your ball,” the caddie responded. Hitting the wrong ball cost Tommy Bolt a two-shot penalty and lots of money. The takeaway is to be nice to people, especially those who serve you. And listen to what they say. This story is from Zig Ziglar’s book “Something to Smile About.” Here’s a poem by Danusha Laméris on the value of small kindnesses from her book “Small Kindnesses.”“I’vebeen thinking about how when you walk down a crowded aisle, and people pull in their legs to let you by. Or how strangers still say ‘bless you’ when someone sneezes, a leftover from the Bubonic plague. ‘Don’t die,’ we are “Andsaying.sometimes, when you spill lemons from your grocery bag, someone else will help you pick them up. But, mostly, we don’t want to harm each other. We want our cup of coffee

The Psalmists said this about God, “Thy loving-kindness is better than life.” God doesn’t just show us kindness. God shows us loving-kindness and thoughtfulness. How do you describe loving-kindness? Here’s how a little boy describes it. The teacher asked the pupils to tell the meaning of loving-kindness. A little boy jumped up and said, “Well, if I was hungry and someone gave me a piece of bread, that would be kindness. But if they put a little jam on it, that would be Wouldn’tloving-kindness.”itberefreshing to change from indifference or rudeness to kindness? Our parched culture is desperate for kindness. Bob Costas says, “Champions don’t become champions on the ﬁeld — they are merely recognized there.”Wouldn’t it be “loverly” if a whole generation of kindness champions quietly moved the idea of kindness from the outside to the inside of themselves? And when these “kindness carriers and couriers” began to transform the culture of education, business, church, government and media, perhaps it could change or elevate the world. Genuine kindness is an excellent medicine for an ailing society, city or nation. My advice is to apply kindness — and apply kindness generously.

DELPH FROM PAGE 18

“We have so little of each other now. We are so far from tribe and fire. Only these brief moments of exchange. What if they are the true dwelling of the holy, these fleeting temples we make together when we say, ‘Here, have my seat,’ ‘Go ahead — you first,’ ‘I like your hat.’” Here are some thoughts about kindness. “The only ones you should try to get even with are the ones who have helped you.” Benjamin Franklin said, “When you are good to others, you are best to yourself.” “Be kind to people until you make your first million. After that, people will be nice to you.” “Never return a kindness. Pass it on.” Here’s a child’s prayer on being nice. “Dear God, make all the bad people good and all the good people nice.”

The Bible says men’s love will grow cold in the last days. But the Bible also says that love is patient, love is kind. So, if love grows cold, that necessarily means that kindness will grow cold, too. So, how do we overcome that propensity? By overcoming a lack of empathy with a generous dose of kindness. You know how that works; ﬁght the “Tommy Bolt” propensity in you with the “caddie” propensity. Don’t go to the dark side. Go to the light and right side of things. Remember, an offense is an event. Becoming offended is a choice. Learn the difference. C. Neil Strait says, “Kindness is more than deeds. It is an attitude, an expression, a look, a touch. It is anything that lifts another person.” However, you cannot do kindness too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late.

To put into perspective how much time the district’s IMT department put into the laptop implementation, each laptop takes approximately two hours to image and make ready for student use. This equals to about 60,000 total hours of the IMT department’s time to ensure all Peoria Uniﬁed students receive equitable access to technology.Students in younger grade levels may keep their assigned laptops at their respective schools to be checked out during the school day, whereas older students will be able to bring their laptops home each evening to continue their schoolwork. Schools will communicate that process to the appropriate grade levels this fall.

Peoria Uniﬁed provides laptops for each of its students

20 e Glendale Star For more youth visit glendalestar.com GlendaleStar.com /GlendaleStar August 25, 2022 BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF

The implementation of districtwide laptops is part of the district’s four-part Strategic Reset Plan, falling under the Student Success and Stewardship of Resources perspective that ensures all students receive the resources needed to be successful.

Peoria Unified’s information management and technology (IMT) department received the first shipment of laptops back in February and worked throughout the summer to prepare the laptops for Peoria Unified students for the start of the upcoming school year.“Our IMT department has been hard at work since February imaging and preparing laptops so that students can use them this fall at the start of the school year,” said Mike Treguboff, director of IMT Network Operations. “We are excited for all students in kindergarten through 12th grade to use these laptops and have access to resources they may not have otherwise.”

Thanks to a grant from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Peoria Uniﬁed School District will be able to provide a laptop to every student in kindergarten through 12th grade for school use during the 2022-23 school year. This initiative is made possible by the FCC Emergency Connectivity Fund (ECF) to help schools provide tools and services during the COVID-19 emergency period. Peoria Uniﬁed applied for these funds, and the district was able to purchase nearly 30,000 laptops for student use.
