Emily Dunham fi nds comfort and completion in a workplace without parallel – the operating room.

Being a part of a surgical team, the young nurse says, brings out the best of her skills.

Recently, the Auburn woman pitched into an international relief eff ort, aboard a fl oating hospital

docked half a world away. Feeling the itch to see and meet

new people, to experience fresh places and things, Dunham decided to do what she had always wanted to do – volunteer overseas. So, she saved her money, left her Seattle apartment and her job at Harbor-view Medical Center, where she had worked for three years in the OR,

Getting every veteri-narian in a community together to form and then keep a humane society going without barking or sniping at each other is a rare phe-nomenon.

Phil Morgan has been in enough communities in his day to say with authority just how unusual that is.

“Th ese guys,” said Morgan, Auburn Valley Humane Society director, indicating the animal doctors arrayed behind him on a recent night at Auburn City Hall,

“are the single reason this organization is as suc-cessful as it is.”

What brought the animal control folks to City Hall was their presentation of a check for $102,548 to the City of Auburn, paying off debt to the City one year

ahead of time. Tangible success with fur or

feathers on it, as the numbers from the animal shelter’s opening day on Jan. 1, 2013 to Nov. 30 2015 show:

• Incoming animals: 2,309 dogs and puppies, 2,495 cats

Cyclery, café open to rave reviewsBY ROBERT WHALE

[email protected] aft er noon last Friday, a dark-

haired young woman is chatting at the counter with Addie Horn, manager of the café half of Th e Green River Cyclery and Busted Bike Café.

Lauren, paying her fi rst visit to the new business, is grooving on the goodies and the vibe, at this moment a melding of a latte on the cusp of full foamery and the whine of a power tool over bike gears

“Th is place is great,” Lauren said. “My husband is a cyclist, I’m not. I’m here for the coff ee.”

Kayla Forsberg, co-owner with hus-band, Josef, said business is brisk in the little shop on the southwest corner of the Trek Apartment building at 8 South Division. It opened on Dec. 5

“I’ve been so pleasantly surprised with how well it’s done, and people have had such great responses to all the products that we have,” said Horn, who sports a colorful “Halleluja” tattoo on her right arm.

Here customers may not only buy bicycles, get their rides repaired and pick up bike-related accessories but also sip coff ee, eat sandwiches and salads, sample beer and wine and plug in and work on their laptops.

FOR THE REPORTER

Brent Swearingen, deputy chief of operations for the Valley Regional Fire Authority, completed a master of arts degree in security studies at the Naval Postgraduate School Center for Homeland De-fense and Security (CHDS) on Dec. 18.

Swearingen has fi lled numerous positions within the fi re service, with responsibilities for emergency operations and management. At the VRFA he oversees the author-

ity’s emergency operations activities for the cities of Al-gona, Auburn and Pacifi c. He earned a bachelor of sci-ence degree from the University of Phoenix. He resides in Ravensdale.

During the 18-month online and in-residence program, Swearingen col-laborated with homeland security offi cials from throughout the nation on policy, strategy and organi-zational design challenges. He wrote a thesis titled, “Th e

Buck Stops Where? Aligning Author-ity with Strategy in Homeland Security.”

Th irty-one CHDS students earned degrees. Th ey represent a snapshot of the homeland secu-

rity profession, including professionals from the fi elds of homeland security, emergency management law enforcement, the fi re service, military, public health and academia.

CHDS, located at the Naval Postgraduate School,

is the nation’s homeland security educator.

Master’s degree students develop critical think-ing, leadership and policy skills during a rigorous 18-month program.

Each graduate completes a thesis on a current issue facing his/her jurisdiction. Th ese oft en translate into policy and practice.

Th e CHDS is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Na-tional Preparedness Direc-torate, within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

At the moment, the busi-ness is waiting on its license to sell beer and wine.

“It’s been great to be in

the beginning stages be-cause we can really use the feedback people are giving us. Th e fi rst couple of weeks we didn’t have any tea yet, and a lot of people were

suggesting it, asking for it, so we made sure to get some,” Horn said. “It’s all loose leaf from the Man-hattan Company, which is pretty cool.”

A particular favorite with patrons, a generous portion of them employees of nearby City Hall, is the Stumptown Coff ee, served up hot or cold.

“Th ey like the coff ee and they really like the sand-wiches and salads we get from Molly’s,” Kayla said. “We even have some vegan options, which is great for any vegans in Auburn, which, apparently, there are.”

Th e cyclery’s focus is on urban-, commuter-, tour-ing-, and mountain-style bikes, with high-end road bikes thrown in for good measure. And, when pos-sible, it will off er same-day bike repair.

Josef Forsberg, a 1996 Auburn High School graduate, comes to the business from 20 years in printing. He is also a life-long cyclist with a history in bicycle advocacy. Kyla, whose background is in dog grooming, shares her hus-band’s passion for biking and bike advocacy.

“Our main brand of bi-cycle is Jamis, and they have a full range of everything from kids’ bikes to full suspension mountain bikes. Right now we are carrying commuter styles of their bikes, and touring and adventure bikes,” said Josef Forsberg.

Store hours are 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., weekdays, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturdays.

Man accused of recording woman using toilet at college appears in court

BY ROBERT WHALE

[email protected] e case of a Kent

man allegedly caught trying to record with his cellphone a woman using a bathroom stall at Green River College on Oct. 1 continues to wind its way through the legal system.

According to a spokes-person for the King County Prosecutor, 37-year-old Anthony Lee Smith appeared in court on Tuesday, Dec. 22 in Seattle.

Here is what happened, according to court papers.

At about noon on Oct. 1, a woman called 911 to report that fi ve minutes earlier a male had been in the bathroom taking pictures. Soon aft er that report, a school security offi cer notifi ed 911 that

he was detaining a man for taking pictures in a women’s restroom, but that the man was not cooperating.

Auburn Police re-sponded to the school and arrested the man.

According to the police report, Smith told detec-tives he’d entered the bath-room and sat in a stall for about two minutes before taking out his cellphone and reaching under the stall divider – however, he said, he had never hit the record button.

According to the police report, the woman told police she’d seen the screen of the cellphone and noticed its record-ing function was on. Th e woman screamed and confronted Smith.

Court records say Smith was on probation at the time for violation of a protection order and had been arrested for other probation violations and for gang tagging.

Auburn Police responded to the

following calls for service, among

many others, between Dec. 13

and 14:

Dec. 13 Get thee gone: 12:23 p.m.,

1305 17th St. SE. When the powers that be at Zion Lutheran Church had had enough of a troublesome person, they told her to scoot.

Vandalism: 4:59 p.m., T Street Southeast. A husband and wife were arguing heatedly and with volume in their home, when she, frustrated, smacked a bathroom mirror, cutting one of her hands. Somebody drove her to an undis-closed hospital for treatment. Police

have since forwarded the cases

to the City prosecutor’s offi ce for

review.

Shoplifting: 5:17 p.m. 1232 A St.

NE. Police arrested a woman for try-

ing to swipe a radio from Lowe’s.

Dec. 14 Shoplifting swanky shades:

12:17 p.m., 1101 Outlet Collection

Way SW. Staff at the Sunglass Hut

reported that a male and female

had stolen two pair of high-end

sunglasses.

Burglary: 1 p.m., 31317

124th Ave. SE. Somebody tried to

break into a storage shed at Grace

Lutheran Church sometime in

the previous week, in the process

damaging the lock and keypad and

tearing some weather stripping.

Q U O T E O F N O T E : “I want to keep helping people because, in my mind, that could so easily be me, born in a country where I didn’t have access (to health care).”– Emily Dunham, a surgical nurse from Auburn, who volunteered for nine weeks aboard Africa Mercy, a fl oating hospital off the coast of Madagascar

Bridging the opportunity gap starts with paraeducators

Our public schools rely on more than 25,000 paraeducators – school employees who work under the supervision of teachers in the classroom – in all facets of education, especially in programs designed for at risk students.

Yet paraeducators receive virtually no training from the state, and there are no state standards for who may be hired.

Th at is troubling. Our most vulnerable students should be taught by highly-trained

professionals. Every student should have that right. Th at’s just com-mon sense. Next year there will be proposed legislation in Olympia to solve this problem, and your representative, Pat Sullivan, D-Covington

(District 47), will be critical in that debate.SB 5179 will solve the problem by creating

a system of licensing and minimum stan-dards for paraeducators, a training program, and a career ladder. It will also require more training for teachers in how to supervise paraeducators.

SB 5179 is supported by Superintendent Randy Dorn and is based on the work and recommendations of the Paraeducator Stan-dards Workgroup; an expert panel created by the legislature. Th is bill passed the Senate last year, but stalled in the House because some wanted to refer the issue to another group for more study. We don’t need more studies. We don’t need more delays. We need to move forward now to make sure our kids are being taught by professionals who have been well trained.

Paraeducators provide more than half of all instructional time to kids who are strug-gling and need extra help. In our state and federal programs designed for students who are at risk of dropping out, or don’t speak English as their fi rst language, more than half of all instructional hours are being provided

Support our schools, vote to replace levy

I am so proud of the Auburn school system.

When I lug some vote-for-schools signs down the street and stop fi rst where Rottles used to be, I am disappointed because Rottles is not there to take the two signs they always accepted. But I can walk on and fi nd Love Travel, which will take a sign.

I continue on and fi nd the Rainbow Café, which is happy to have a sign. Th en, on the corner, there is H&R Block, which will take a sign. Heading out to the car dealers, I fi nd Scarff ’s, which will take a sign, and Volkswagon will let me put up a sign.

Th ere are some who do not want a sign and that’s their right of choice. But those who take a sign are the heart of Auburn.

One of the privileges of be-

gin a teacher is that you get to know many families. And you get to share with parents the fun of getting to know them and their off spring. One can share the pride of a new high school, which is under budget and on time.

I am lucky to have known many of the merchants I speak with as students.

So I hope you will vote for the replacement levy on Feb. 9, which will not increase school taxes and will fund special education, textbooks, athletics, drama, band, bus maintenance, etc.– Harold Valentine

Feeling safe, with police substation nearby

Th ank you to Auburn Police and the Seasons Apartments for the new police substation on Lea Hill. I feel a lot safer when police are around.

I have met a few police offi cers and all of them are so kind.

I feel like the city will be a better, safer place because of you. Sometimes my neighbor-hood needs the police and I feel better with them closer to me.

Th ank you.– Lily Brengle

Grooming. Weekly nail trim-ming and brushing allow you to check your dog for lumps or other changes that might need attention. If your dog isn’t very cooperative, do a little every day so it becomes part of the routine.

Exercise. If your goal is to spend more time outside this year, find ways to include your dog. A tired dog is a happy dog, less likely to get into mischief around the

house. An overweight dog will also feel better after losing a few pounds.

Household manners. Make a list of behaviors you’d like to change. If your dog begs for food, teach him to lie down during meals. If he jumps on people, teach him to sit instead. If he plays keep away or doesn’t come when called, have him drag a leash around the house. If his issues include aggres-sion or resource guarding (food,

toys), enlist the aid of a profes-sional trainer.

Leash walking. If your dog pulls or lunges when you take him for walks, make this a priority. Be consistent with your commands and expectations. A basic obedi-ence class can help you find the techniques that work best for your dog.

Something new. Dogs, like people, love to learn new things.

From teach-at-home tricks to classes where you and your dog can expand your horizons, find the time to explore new activities with your four-legged friend.

There are clubs, groups and classes covering everything from agility to nose work, barn hunt, musical freestyle, tracking, rally obedience and lots more. Do an online search and you’ll find lots of opportunities in this area.

and kittens, 129 bunnies, birds and other beasts, and 73 injured or displaced wildlife.

• Outgoing animals: 3,125 animals adopted, 717 animals returned to owner, 250 transferred to rescue, 129 euthanized for medical reasons, 59 animals euthanized for behavior, 168 animals euthanized by request, 103 animals have died in the shelter, and 242 were dead on arrival.

Also of interest are the following statistics:

• Live release rate: 95.7 percent

• Dog return to owner rate: 51.98 percent

• Cat return to owner rate: 4.14 percent

• Dog adoption rate: 61.9 percent

• Cat adoption rate: 78.93 percent

• Adoptable animals euthanized: 0 percent.

“I think the most impor-tant one to realize is 2,204 animals (came in via) the public stray drop box, and 766 were brought in by (Animal Control Officer) George Winner,” Morgan said.

“Almost 96 percent of the animals that come into our building leave alive,”

Morgan added. “That’s a big number. King County just a few years ago wasn’t even half of that, about 60 percent.”

None of the success would have been possible, Morgan noted, without the 76,887 hours volunteers have put in cleaning ken-nels and cages, feeding and caring for cats, walking and training dogs, greeting cus-tomers, answering phones, providing foster care, doing mobile and off-site adop-tions, helping at the AVHS Thrift Store that opened a year and a half ago and helping at fundraisers and other events.

None of this was true just a few short years ago.

For decades, Auburn contracted with the King County Animal Shelter to shelter its homeless animal population:

In 2010, however, budget shortfalls forced KCAC to substantially jack up the contract cost and cut services to the City. Auburn residents were on the verge of losing community animal control services and control of their financial future and quality of the care for pets.

Local veterinarians and residents formed the hu-

mane society to address the needs of the local animal population and shelter management. For the next several decades, it would partner with the City to provide licensing services, a shelter facility, and an animal control officer.

The AVHS became a recognized 501c3, nonprofit organization in March 2011.

All Auburn veterinary clinics and 17 members of the community put it together. A building was found at 4910 A St. SE and a remodeling plan was secured with the City.

Operational budgets were established and endorsed by the partnering humane society. On Sept. 19, 2011, the City entered into a professional service agreement with the AVHS. The City agreed to pay the AVHS $240,000 a year – to provide sheltering and licensing sales for the lost and abandoned animals for the City. The agreement runs until Dec. 31, 2019 and has a seven-year option to continue the services.

“We’re looking very hap-pily forward to continuing our relationship,” Morgan said.

Caroling

Under the streetlight we turned the book’s pages,

Searched for the songs, for the words we all know;

Sang for the ages, sang for the snow.

Under the streetlight our littlest sister

Wore rubbers and a red hat, her blue eyes aglow.

Sing now for the passing years, sing for the snow.

Under the streetlight we raised our young voices,

Sang the songs jubilant, caroling slow –– sang

for the Christ Child’s birth. Soft fell the snow.

Christ was a little child out in the street

With Mary his mother – so cold – did she know?

Soft as her baby’s breath, soft still falls the snow.

Look up beyond streetlight to starlight above:

The Milky Way rows wide and white as God’s love

Come to Earth on this silent night, soft as the snow.

for a change of scenery and adventure.

“I love culture and travel,” said Dunham, 25, a graduate of Auburn Mountainview High School and the Univer-sity of Washington School of Nursing. “I wanted to take my skills where they were needed. … I wanted to help people overseas some day, those who don’t have access to care.”

On her own dime and time, Dunham worked with an all-volunteer, interna-tional team assigned to the good ship, Africa Mercy, one of the world’s largest private hospital vessels. Th e ship, which sat in port off Mada-gascar, a large, rugged island nation off Africa’s southeast coast, accommodated a staff of 400 volunteers from more than 40 nations.

Ever since 1978, Mercy Ships, a global charity, has operated a fl eet of hospital ships in developing nations.

Th e eff ort infuses hope and heals the poor, mobilizing people and resources world-wide, one nation at a time.

For nine weeks, Dunham handed scalpels and retrac-tors, clamps and forceps, to doctors from other nations. English was the working language, interpreters the vital voice between doctors and patients.

Many of the surgeries were life-changing opera-tions such as cleft lip and palate repair, cataract removal, orthopaedic procedures, plastics surgery, maxillofacial reconstruction, and obstetric fi stula repair.

Th e work was steady, rewarding.

“We worked hard and put in a lot of hours, but it’s work I enjoy,” Dunham said. “It was amazing how well we were able to work together because everyone does ev-erything a little bit diff erent at home, but everyone was giving something to be there … great teamwork.”

Th e experience gave Dun-ham a deeper appreciation for and an understanding of what many Americans have, and what other struggling nations do not – fundamen-tal health care and educa-tion.

Dunham saw how diseased and affl icted Malagasy are shunned and deserted, and how a basic, cosmetic surgery can change a person’s disposition and impact their outlook on life. She and her patients shared the unforgettable healing process and stories.

“Being there, I realized how these people are exactly the same as me, same as my family, my loved ones, and yet they are living with this disease that can cause them to become a social outcast, or they can’t func-tion,” Dunham said. “It was really eye opening to see how much it aff ects their lives. It just made me realize I want to keep doing this. I want to keep helping people

because, in my mind, that could so easily be me, born in a country where I didn’t have access (to health care).

“It was amazing to be a part of something and give people a normal life.” Dunham said. “I have huge respect for them, how they became normal people again. Th ey were inspiring.

“I discovered a love for people I didn’t know I was capable of,” she added. “It was incredible to be walking alongside and interacting with these people. Th ey are the most wonderful, grateful

and strongest people I’ve met.”

A surgical nurse needs certain qualities to excel, and Dunham has them.

“Nurses are either drawn to the OR or they’re not,” she said. “I just found my home in the OR, and I love it. I love working right along the surgeons. I like that you get to see so much. I like the responsibility that comes with it. You really are the eyes and ears of your patient because they are under an-esthesia, and they can’t talk or speak up for themselves.

You really have to have that trusting relationship with your OR nurse.”

Given the chance, Dunham would return for another volunteer mission or travel nurse assignment.

For now, she is back home, looking for work and a chance to help change people’s lives for the better.

“It was hard to leave,” she said of the overseas experi-ence. “It’s like a family. You develop these relationships with those you work with.”

Auburn’s ‘Feast Mode’ returns homeSeattle has “Beast Mode.”

Cleveland has “Feast Mode.”

Or, as the latter is known to the more than 20 friends and family who watched him Sunday at CenturyLink Field, Danny Shelton.

Th e 6-foot-2, 339-pound Auburn High School and University of Washington graduate returned to the area where he spent most of his life to start at defensive tackle during the Browns’ 30-13 loss against the

Seahawks. Shelton fi nished with seven tackles.

“It’s awesome,” Shel-ton said during a phone interview last Friday. “It’s everything I could wish for. Playing in the NFL and starting. Being able to come back to Seattle and see my family is everything I could’ve wanted.”

It has been another dif-fi cult season for Cleveland. Th e Browns’ 3-11 record is tied for the worst mark in the NFL, and coach Mike Pettine’s job security has been questioned by several media outlets. Cleveland

has lost double-digit games in a season 13 times since the Browns’ franchise was resurrected in 1999.

But Shelton said he doesn’t think about that.

“Not at all,” he said. “We’re a team. We obvious-ly haven’t had the season we wanted. Th ey’ve learned to block everything out. We’re really just focused on play-ing (Seattle) and winning every week.”

Shelton, who was the No. 12 overall selection in April out of the UW, instead is focused on fulfi lling his potential.

“It’s the NFL,” he said. “It’s everything I ever wished for. I always dreamed of playing in the league. Th is is where I was chosen to be and this is where I’m going to set my legacy. I know it’s going to take time, but this is how it is.”

Shelton hopes to ac-complish that through a draft class surrounded by familiarity. He was the fi rst of seven players Cleve-land selected from Pac-12 programs. Two of those players – Nate Orchard (Utah) and Xavier Cooper (Washington State) – play

on the defensive line with Shelton.

“Th is team is fi lled with some top-notch Pac-12 guys,” Shelton said.

It also has led to some banter. Shelton said Orchard, who lives in his neighborhood, teamed up with another Utah alum, Paul Kruger, and talked trash aft er the Utes defeated the Huskies in November. Shelton said he and kicker Travis Coons, who also played at UW, similarly had fun with Cooper aft er the

PAIR OF LIONS HEADED TO WESTERN OREGON

Auburn Mountainview standout Ryan Lacey announced

Dec. 17 via Twitter that he verbally committed to play

basketball next season at Western Oregon University.

Lacey, who is aiming to become the fi rst Auburn Mountainview boys basketball player to score

1,000 career points this season, will be joined at WOU by

teammate Tristan Miguel, who signed with the program earlier

this month. The 6-foot-10, 220-pound Miguel averaged

15 points and 10 rebounds per game last season.

The 6-3 Lacey averaged 18 points per game last

season for the Lions. His older brother, JJ, a 2013 Auburn

Mountainview graduate, plays basketball at George Fox

University in Oregon.

Three Auburn high schools appear entrenched in the 3A clas-sification.

But that does not mean they will be there when the 2016-17 school year begins.

Rob Swaim, athletic director for the Auburn School District, said his schools could remain in 3A or “opt up” to 4A.

“There’s pros and cons with each,” Swaim said. “It would be nice for proximity purposes to be back with our Kent schools. We’ve been late to a few of our contests because of traffic. It’s brutal.”

Swaim, who expects to have more clarity on the issue when the South Puget Sound League athletic directors meet Jan. 5, said some of the uncertainty relates to the tenuous future of the Narrows League. The (Peninsula) Gateway first reported Dec. 10 that Gig Harbor likely would reclassify and join rival Peninsula in SPSL 3A.

That change alone would not af-fect the composition of the eight-team league because Sumner is expected to move to 4A.

But the five Tacoma Public Schools, which, along with Bellar-mine Prep and South Kitsap, are charter members of the Narrows from 1979, could be mulling a move to the SPSL, according to Swaim. Tacoma Public Schools athletic director Sam Reed could not be reached for comment.

“Everyone in the West Central District are waiting for someone else to make a move,” Swaim said. “The rumors are just ridiculous right now.”

If the Tacoma Public Schools and Gig Harbor join the SPSL, the Narrows would have a maximum of 10 teams between its 3A and 4A divisions. In 2011, South Kitsap athletic director Ed Santos said six members in the 4A Nar-rows was too small to remain a viable league. That supplied the impetus for South Kitsap and four others – Bellarmine Prep, Central

Kitsap, Gig Harbor and Olympia – to seek admission to the SPSL. The league’s 4A division stabilized at the time when Yelm moved from 3A.

Swaim said he hopes to learn those Narrows schools’ plan before ASD officials decide which classification they want to belong to. All three Auburn high schools have competed together in SPSL 3A since 2014 and Swaim said a top priority is to keep those pro-grams in the same league.

“We’ve really enjoyed being together,” he said. “It’s nice that we’re all together now. We want to all stay together.”

The next consideration, Swaim said, is to minimize instructional time lost through travel and trans-portation expenses.

Schools with the top 16 to 17 percent enrollment are recog-nized as 4A. But the Washington Interscholastic Activities Associa-tion’s preliminary number could fluctuate if smaller schools elect to play in a larger classification.

In that case, Swaim said one of the smaller SPSL 3A schools, such as Bonney Lake or Enumclaw, could move down to 2A when the WIAA certifies its numbers. Swaim said Bonney Lake (971.72) had the smallest enrollment based on the latest figures he had seen, while Enumclaw (974.75) was second from the bottom.

Those numbers, he said, are based on the Office of Superinten-dent of Public Instruction’s fresh-man through junior enrollment count during the 2014-15 school year and this year’s numbers for students in 10th through 12th grade from Oct. 1 to Dec. 1. But Swaim cautioned some schools have appealed those numbers with the hope that they can avoid a move to a larger classification.

Based on the latest count, Swaim said Auburn (1,202.75) was the largest high school in the district, followed by Auburn Riverside (1,179.16) and Auburn Mountainview (1,095.09).

Realignment could impact Auburn high schoolsBY CHRIS CHANCELLOR

by paraeducators, not teachers. In just the com-pleted 2014-15 school year, Title 1, bilingual and special education students received over 18 million hours of instruction from paraedu-cators.

Th e opportunity gap facing these students is a real problem in Washing-ton state. Th ere’s a sig-nifi cant gap in achievement between diff erent racial groups, and one out of fi ve of these students is drop-ping out. We can, and must, do better. Our students deserve our best.

It’s time to create profes-sional standards and a training program for para-educators.

By making paraeducators true professionals, we will create a system in which

teachers supervise highly trained educators. Promot-ing the use of paraeducators will also help lower class sizes by putting more adults in our classrooms. At the end of the day, our students are the ones that benefi t.

School districts need ad-ditional tools and resources to bridge the opportunity gap and improve student instruction. Th e cost to develop the standards, training, and career ladder will be minimal in com-parison with what the state currently spends to try and close the opportunity gap. By licensing paraeducators, we are enabling them to be the bridge between parent and community expecta-tions and student achieve-ment. By helping to bridge the opportunity gap, they are giving every student the best chance to succeed.

Th ere are state standards not only for a teaching cer-tifi cate but also to drive a bus or operate a boiler. Th e state should be equally con-cerned that those providing instruction meet quality standards.

If we don’t create these standards for instruction now, we will never close the opportunity gap and lower the dropout rate. Again, your Representa-tive is critical to this issue. Tell Pat Sullivan, that it’s time to create professional standards and a training program for paraeducators. Please support SB 5179. Our kids depend on it.

Huskies’ Apple Cup win.While Shelton, who was

born in Sacramento, Calif., grew up as a fan of the San Francisco 49ers, he also came to appreciate some Seahawks, such as former linebacker Lofa Tatupu, and respects the franchise’s accomplishments during the last decade.

Shelton, who has 33 tackles this year, said he already knows where his greatest growth needs to occur during the off season

to develop into an impact player along the lines of his football idols.

“Just the mental part of the game,” he said. “You’ve got to be able to control yourself mentally and be disciplined mentally, as well. Th at’s part of the edge that coming in as a rookie you try and gain up on right away.”

Shelton, whose family moved to Auburn in 2000, remains grateful for the opportunity to achieve his dreams. It almost did not happen.

Th at is because Shelton was with his brothers, Gaston and Shennon, during a confrontation in 2011. Shennon was fatally shot. A bullet hit Gaston in the chest.

“Every day I always have time to think and refl ect on my life,” he said. “I always think of how he would feel in this situation. Being able to come back home, I feel close to my brother because he’s buried in Auburn.”

It is just one reason “Feast Mode” oft en has his hometown on his mind.

LET’S PLAY! - Roadie is a 10 year old, 70 pound pit bull mix currently living in Snoqualmie. Roadie is a f r iend ly guy who w o u l d l o ve a n ew home where his family can spend more time with him. Roadie has not l ived wi th other dogs but is usually so- c ial when he meets them. He enjoys children but hasn’t been around cats so a cat- free home is probably best. He is neutered, house broken, loves w a l k s , i s i n g o o d health, and is up-to- date on all his shots. He’s a dog with lots of energy to play and a ta i l that won’ t s top wagging. This friendly g u y wo u l d l ove t o meet you!
