Kids who are sent to Echo Glen Children’s Center in Snoqualmie arrive broken.

Many arrive with substance abuse issues. Some have been sexually abused and in turn have become abusers themselves. Others have committed very serious crimes.

To gain admittance, visitors must be buzzed in and pass through a metal gate. � ey are advised to leave everything in their car except keys and absolute necessities.

“You’d be surprised at what can happen if you put your purse down,” the receptionist says.

Once inside, there is a metal detector. But there is also a lot of hope and love for those in this state-run medium/maximum security facility for juvenile o� enders.

� e residents – there are about 150 of them at the center – still must go to school. Since 1967 they’ve been taught sta� from the Issaquah School District. Today that includes 15 teachers, six educational assistants and a library tech specialist.

School here is like many others. � ere’s a fully-stocked library. � e facility has a large � eld for football, soccer and baseball. � ere’s a gymnasium and even an indoor pool. However, unlike at most schools, each teacher has a panic phone in the classroom.

� e average reading level when the stu-dents arrive is seventh-grade and the average math level is � � h-grade said principal Mike Williams.

“� ey come here a few years behind on their education,” Williams said.

Williams said this year’s average student age is 15.2 years of age, with an average reading level of 8.27, about two years behind grade level. � e average math level at 6.37, is three and one-half to four years behind grade level. Both scores are an improvement over last year’s scores, he said. It’s impor-tant to note these are averages since some students ability is as low as � rst-grade, and some are as high as post-secondary.

“Many classes have ranges that span several grade levels, making it quite chal-lenging for the teachers,” he said.

LaShae Lee is in her � rst year at Echo Glen, teaching math, language arts and Washington State history to the maxi-mum security kids, all boys, ages 13 to 16.

� e classroom is within a fenced structure; she has sta� in the room with her.

“I’ve never been frightened or challenged,” Lee said.

Some of her students are at a � rst-grade math level, while others are at ninth grade. Reading levels range from second grade level to college level.

“It’s a big variety of student ability,” Lee said.

A mother of teenagers herself, Lee said her students’ humor and attention span is pretty similar to her own teenagers.

“Only these boys have gaps of knowledge they didn’t get growing up,” she said. “Bits and pieces are missing.”

� e Sammamish City Coun-cil was prepared to give SE 8th Street Park a new, permanent name during its Feb. 19 meet-ing, but drew a blank.

A committee consisting of land donor Mary Pigott and others from the city sta� , council and community whittled choices down to four for the council’s review. � e list included Backyard Trails Park, Sammamish Backyard Park, Sammamish Trails Park and Owl Pond Park.

“Something like Soaring Eagle Park has an action word in it that really captures the es-sence of what we’re all about,” councilmember Nancy Whit-ten said. “I don’t feel any of these names do that, and this is going to be something that’s with us for a long time.”

Others on the council agreed the names weren’t ideal.

� ey did, however, come to a consensus on a name from a previous list — Big Rock Park.

“It was the favorite of the school children, it was the fa-vorite of everybody,” said Tom Vance, the lone councilmem-ber on the naming committee.

� e name was scratched from the list because the city of Duvall already has Big Rock Park, which violates param-eters set by Piggot. Under her rules, park names cannot con� ict with names of places or parks in surrounding com-munities.

KOMO News reported last week that former Seattle Sonic’s first-round draft pick Robert Swift, who lost his home to foreclo-sure, refuses to leave his former property.

The news organization didn’t reveal where Swift lives, but an internet search showed Swift is the owner of a home in the 21000 block of Southeast 40th Place in Sammamish.

A woman, who didn’t want to be identi-fied by the news organization, said she bought the foreclosed home in January and that Swift refuses to leave.

Property valuation of the 6,000-square-foot home and property totaled more than $1.3 million in 2010.

KOMO recorded video of cans of beer in the yard of the home and vehicles that appeared they haven’t moved in some time.

According to KOMO, the new owner has gone to court and, according

to records, Swift has gone past his grace period to leave.

Swift, 7-foot-1 center, was drafted by the Sonics in 2004 directly out of his Bakers-field, Calif., high school.

Pending automatic federal budget cuts, slated to begin today, could cost the Is-saquah School District $350,000.

The cuts, part of the sequestration issue in Washington, D.C., would minimally impact the district’s programs this year, but would have more significant consequences

for the 2013-14 school year. The cuts would come in the areas of Title

I funding for low-income schools, special-education services and school lunch ser-vices. All told, the Issaquah School District would lose about 5.6 percent of its total federal funding, or about $350,000.

Sequestration could cut $350K from Issaquah School District budget

A champion has emerged to save trees on Squak Mountain. Reagan Dunn, a member of the Metro-

politan King County Coun-cil, told � e Reporter that he is con� dent the county will � nd the money to buy 216-acres targeted for log-ging.

Kurt Erick-son, owner of

Erickson Logging, said he will harvest the timber, but he is giving the county six months to come up with a plan to buy the land

from him.Public outcry pushed the issue

to the forefront of local and county o� cials’ attention.

Dunn called the project a high priority and said a proposal is in the works to have the King County Parks Division purchase the land with Conservation Futures funds. A citizens oversight committee would review the application, then make a recommendation to the County Executive and County Council.

Dunn said he should be able to get an idea in May from the oversight committee if the project has been selected.

� e committee’s recommenda-tions are usually followed, according to David Tiemann with the O� ce of Rural and Resource Programs. A � nal decision would come in

November.“In the business of government, a

November timeline is pretty quick turn-around,” Dunn said.

David Kappler, president of Is-saquah Alps and Trails Club, said the organization is “pleased” that Dunn has stepped forward, not-ing that acquiring the property has regional bene� ts for wild land recreational opportunities close-in to many of the urban Puget Sound cities.

Kappler added that acquiring the land could help residents along May Creek deal with increasing months of � ooding of their property. � e headwaters of May Creek are on Squak Mountain.

A $10 billion transportation tax package has been rolled out by House Democrats in Olympia certainly is an eye-opener. But it might just be

what the public needs to focus on how we move people and products in our state.

� e plan would boost taxes on gasoline by 10 cents a gallon and add a car-tab tax of 0.7 percent on the value of a vehicle. � e plan also would put a $25 sales tax fee on bicycle worth $500 or more.

All of this – plus how the money would be spent – will be one of the most debated issues of the legislative session. And, we suspect, around dinner tables and water coolers by everyone else.

Credit 41st Legislative District Rep. Judy Clibborn, D-Mercer Island, with taking on this tough task. Her district includes half of Bellevue and we suspect she – like the rest of us – sees transportation woes on a daily basis. As she said, “� e plan puts $10 billion to work and is investing in the future of the state.”

We won’t try to give a blessing or a curse to the proposal yet. Like you, we want to poke into the bill’s details � rst. But as more people move here and use our roads, and as those continue to deteriorate, it should be obvious that doing nothing isn’t an option.

If you drive on I-405, you see that problem every day. � e same is true if you’ve ever gotten bogged down in tra� c trying to travel from our state to Oregon. Even Snoqualmie Pass is o� en overloaded.

� e bill doesn’t include money to complete the new Evergreen Point bridge. Maybe it should, but tolls – if expanded to I-90 – could take care of that funding issue. Any while no one likes tolls, you can make a good argu-ment that in this instance they are a targeted user tax.

Some already had cried that a 10-cent gasoline tax increase (2 cents a year for each of � ve years), would give our state the highest gas tax in the nation. � at shouldn’t be the issue. Instead, we should concentrate on what we need to keep people moving on our roads and how do we pay for the needed costs.

Let’s start talking.

Issaquah and Sammamish residents, particularly parents, should be proud.

Time and time again, I stumble across remarkable feats accomplished in both communities by kids — many of them years away from even considering a drivers license.

Look no further than two Sammamish boys, Chirag Vedullapalli, 12, and Amol Garg, 13. � e junior philanthro-pists run a non-pro� t that turns art work into money for other children in need.

Chirag, who started selling art at age 5, said he used to buy himself toys with the money he earned, but he that got “boring.” Around age 9,

he decided it was time to help those less fortunate and launched Charitable Children for Charity — a website that not only sells Chirag and Amol’s work, but also collects commission fees from other artists. One-hundred percent of the money they earn is donated to charity.

� en, there is Geneva Schlepp, a 13-year-old Pine Lake Middle School student, who decided to help fund a new school in Raj-asthan, India where 60 percent of girls have dropped out. Inspired by a school presenta-tion that featured members of an African tribe who had to kill a lion in order to gain permission to get an education, Geneva wanted to make her own mark on spreading education around the world. She recruited friends across the Plateau to bake and sell goods in an e� ort to raise enough money to build a new schoolhouse, buy desks, provide a teacher’s salary and clean water for children in the region.

� e kicker — Geneva said she isn’t doing any of it for school credit or other recogni-tion, she simply wants to make an impact.

I can’t forget 9-year-old Ajay Gupta, a Sammamish boy who instead of going out and trick-or-treating for his own candy this past Halloween, went house to house collecting coins for the United Nations Children’s Fund.

� en, there’s one exceptional act by one nameless youth that didn’t result in a story. While working at Issaquah’s annual Salmon Days Festival this past fall, I went to the back of the booth for a moment. I heard a rustling out in front, followed by a bunch of boys laughing. When I went back, I noticed there was a large portion of candy missing. We were giving it away free, so it wasn’t a big deal. I even laughed a little, thinking “kids will be kids.”

But what happened next surprised me. I noticed a young boy, no older than 12, trailing his group of friends. I could see he was con� icted. Moments later, he walked back to me and told me his friends just stole a bunch of candy. He wanted to know how much he owed me.

� e courage it took for him to come back and potentially take the heat for something his friends did was remarkable.

From my experiences living in other parts of the state and country, this isn’t the norm. It says something about the way kids are raised and educated in this region. Sure, the area is a� uent, but that doesn’t always transition to kindness.

Examples like these keep me hopeful for the future.

Parents, keep doing whatever it is you do — it’s certainly working.

LET’S TALKTransportation – and taxes –

need to be on our agenda

Kevin Endejan

READ THE CONSTITUTION

I have to laugh at Michael Barr’s Feb. 22 letter in reference to my letter and others because, like Jared Oh, he is also in desperate need of a civics lesson.

Where Oh missed the point on the protec-tions a� orded by the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution, Mr. Barr misses the point on the de� ning moment in America’s history. He states, “You would have thought Oh called for overturning a tyrannical govern-ment through armed insurrection to get this reaction…which is ironically what all these staunch Second Amendment support-ers wrongly believe they have a right to do.”

I say Mr. Barr needs to take the time to read the Declaration of Independence; that is exactly what our Founding Fathers real-ized they had the right to do and in the end needed to do through petition then arms.

Here’s everyone’s civic lesson for the day: � e Constitution is a document directed at the government itself. It is a set of rules the government must follow. If the Constitu-tion doesn’t allow the government to do it, or if the Constitution lim-its the government in some form or manner, then the government cannot do something. � e basic concept be-hind the Constitution is that any and all rights rest with the people.

Everybody should take the time to read it and maybe, just maybe, they’ll begin to under-stand why some people are so vehemently concerned about the over-burdening reaches of our government into our personal lives.

The following information was compiled from city of Sammamish and Issaquah police reports::

Can FiReSammamish police

responded to a call Feb. 15 of two males attempting to light a tin can on fire. When police arrived in the 1000 block of 218th Avenue Northeast they were unable to locate the suspects. The

can was already extin-guished when first respond-ers arrived.

On BLOCKSIssaquah police re-

sponded to two calls of a suspicious vehicle on blocks with no wheels Feb. 7. The registered owner of the car, found in the 100 block of Sky Ridge Road Northwest, told police someone had stolen his wheels and that he had ordered new tires set to arrive within the next couple of days. Police agreed to

not put a 24-hour impound sticker on the vehicle.

viOLaTiOnA Snoqualmie man

was arrested Feb. 21 after police discovered he was driving his vehicle down 228th Avenue in Samma-mish without a required Interlock device. The man was initially pulled over for stopping his vehicle in the middle of an intersection at a red left turn arrow.

THReaTA Sammamish man

called police Feb. 18 to report a threatening phone call he received from a re-stricted number. The Sam-

mamish man said the caller, who “sounded African American” asked the man if he would do work on his house in South Seattle. The local man told the caller that was out of his geo-graphical area. The caller then began making acquisi-tions of racism, dropping the “N” word several times. He asked the man if he only worked for rich white people, then told the man, “I’ve got your card, I know where you live,” followed by a profanity.

Dr. John Liu likes to see his patients by their � rst birthday. Liu, a pediatric dentist, has been named the 2013 American Academy of Pediatric Den-tistry’s Pediatric Dentist of the Year. He will receive the award May 26 in Orlando, Fla.

Liu graduated from dental school in 1986, but continued his education for two additional years in pediatric den-tal training. He said having children as patients requires behavior manage-ment skills to deal with the kids, and to have the ability to connect with children on all di� erent levels.

His youngest patients have been infants. Some babies are born with one or two teeth, he said, which can cause problems for nursing mothers, but also for the newborn because the teeth are not strong and don’t have a strong root level. So, the teeth have to come out.

He said it’s important to establish good relationships with children and their parents.

“It starts with the moms and dads,” Liu said. “� ey must have good oral hygiene.”

Liu has no hard and fast rule as to when his patients should move on to adult oral care, but he said when they graduate from high school it’s time, although he’s had a patient who stayed on until he was a junior at UW.

“Usually they beg and beg to stay, even though it’s time to move on,” he said laughing.

Liu was the president of the Ameri-can Academy of Pediatric Dentistry in 2010-2011. He is particularly proud of his work with the Ad Council, which produces public service campaigns for non-pro� t organizations and government agencies on issues such as improving preventive health. Liu helped shape an oral health campaign called 2min2x.org, which encour-ages kids to brush twice a day for two minutes. � ere will be public service announcements in addition to the website.

Liu said the campaign cost $3.5 mil-lion. � e American Dental Associa-tion, � e Dental Trade Alliance and the American Academy of periodon-tology each contributed $1 million, with the other $500,000 coming from the AAPD.

Liu has two children, ages 10 and 12. Laughing, Liu said his partner takes care of their teeth so dad doesn’t have to do it.

Chirag Vedullapalli might not be like most kids his age — but that’s not a bad thing.

Chirag, 12, started painting and success-fully selling his artwork at age 5.

“He used to paint a lot and people used to come to our house and say, ‘it’s so beauti-ful, I want to buy it,’” said Chaitra Vedul-lapalli, Chirag’s mom.

The Sammamish boy enjoyed his rewards at first, buying all the toys he desired. At age 9, however, his mindset changed.

“After a time, toys got boring,” Chirag said. “I was thinking if I get toys for some-one who would use them forever or for someone who would use them for a good cause, then it’s way more worth it.”

The selfless idea resulted in the forma-tion of Creative Children for Charity, or 3C — a nonprofit dedicated selling art to benefit children in need.

Since bringing in friend and fellow artist, Amol Garg, 13, the organization has raised thousands of dollars selling art through its website.

“We both like art and we both like giving to charity,” said Amol, a seventh-grader at Pine Lake Middle School.

Artists who feature their products on the site pay a commission, 100 percent of which goes to charity. Some artists choose to donate all their proceeds to 3C.

The two also step outside the web, host-ing fundraisers in the community. The most recent, titled “Canvas & Cupcakes,”

was held Feb. 21 at Beaver Lake Lodge. Kids paid a $20 entry fee to paint a cupcake canvas, then decorated their own cupcake for consumption. All of the $1,000 raised were donated to the Make-A-Wish Founda-tion.

This was just the first of many events the boys hope to host. In fact, they have a goal of breaking a Guinness Record by hosting a 5,000-kid art workshop and fundraiser — something they want to do before they reach high school.

They also have another large goal before they reach 18.

“By that time we want to have at least one million kids who are inspired and have donated to social causes to kids because of us,” Amol said.

After they reach adulthood the two already have plans of becoming chairmen of 3C, noting the company’s whole idea is meant to be for kids and to be fully run by kids.

Regardless of age, the boys see art and philanthropy remaining a primary focus.

“I enjoy doing it, it’s what I’m passion-ate about, it’s how I express my feelings,” Chirag said.

Local boys help others through art

With Realtors and devel-opers already inquiring into several parcels of land with-in the new Central Issaquah Plan, the City Council met with sta� in a study session Feb. 20 to discuss design standards for the 1,100 acre commercial core.

“Folks have come in and they know we’re working on these new standards and are expressing inter-est,” said Mark Hinthorne, special projects director for the city.

� e plan, approved last December, surrounds I-90, but excludes Front Street.

One of the goals for the CIP is 7,500 residential units, but as Hinthorne noted, near-term the housing most likely will be rentals until the area be-comes more established and people are willing to build or buy a home there.

� e city plans to work closely with the Chamber of Commerce to encourage small businesses and start-ups, Planning Manager Trish Heinonen told the council.

� e city doesn’t want big box stores in the CIP since people don’t like to build or buy homes near them, she said.

� e plan includes a bonus for developers – they can build more units if they o� er a� ordable housing, open space or both. An-other key part of the CIP is tree retention, green space and landscaping with coun-cil member Josh Schaer noting he does not want to see a “concrete dystopia

surrounded by forest.”Mobility also is a concern

with tra� c becoming a negative factor for many businesses. One idea o� ered was to speed up tra� c on arterials yet slow it down in pedestrian areas.

� e council also had concerns about large neon signs on buildings. Lucy Sloman, the city’s land development manager, said hospitals, hotels and motels are allowed to have

a prominent sign because they are for the public bene� t. But in the case of a new building with perhaps two major tenants, only one tenant name could be displayed prominently.

Schaer was not in favor of corporate neon signs on top of, for example, a 10-story building. How the city will handle signs on buildings facing I-90 is a discussion to be continued.

Regarding the amount of impervious surface allowed, council member Tola Marts wants it limited, perhaps, he explained, “from growing up on Joni Mitchell,” refer-ring to the song “Big Yellow Taxi,” which includes the line, “� ey paved paradise and put up a parking lot.”

� e council is expected to adopt design standards for the CIP on April 15.

� e boundaries of the Central Issaquah Plan area extend to both sides of I-90. � e area excludes historic Front Street. CONTRIBUTED

Design standards for Central Issaquah Plan on fast track It’s no stretch to understand why a community like

Issaquah would want to focus on economic vitality. If the Great Recession has made anything clear, it is that job preservation, business success and economic

competitiveness matter greatly for a small community’s vitality.

When local business succeeds, it’s the community that reaps the bene� ts through increased tax revenue for local public services: police, parks, arts, infrastructure and support to local non-pro� ts. Just as important, successful busi-nesses provide needed employment to keep families stable at a time when having a steady job makes all the di� erence.

Here are a few ways our community can work to support Issaquah’s local economy:

• Much of a community’s economic growth comes from the expansion of existing businesses. Listen to our businesses’ needs…help them succeed.

• If we attract out-of-town visitors and help residents � nd new adventures in our community, such as shop-ping at art galleries, staying in hotels, eating in restau-rants, we can increase commercial activity.

• Community branding and promotion helps a city stand out and compete based on its unique appeal.

• Infrastructure investments - think Bellevue College’s future Issaquah campus, the new Swedish hospital, much needed funding to � x the Front Street/Gilman intersection or potential state investments in Lake Sammamish State Park – helps a city grow.

• Shopping local encourages residents to spend more dollars in the community. Dollars get recycled back.

• Make sure the city is a welcome place to do busi-ness and one that is consistent with the community’s values. Burdensome barriers hurt business success and job growth.

• Develop strategies that support local enterprises on the cutting edge of global trends…anything from high tech to health care, exporting to clean energy.

• Ensure that the community is desirable for families of all income levels, with outstanding schools and a great quality of life.

� ere are plenty of tools in the tool kit to support our local economy, and it will be exciting to see how community leaders put these concepts to work in the months and years ahead.

What will you do to support Issaquah’s economy?

Gus Campanario isn’t a professional chef. But he’s no stranger to food.

“My dad owned a restaurant when I was growing up so he was always around

cooking,” Campanar-io said.

So when the Issaquah resident learned about Del Monte’s “Add Some Garden” contest – via an ad on his Facebook page – he thought it sounded like fun.

Launched on Nov. 5, 2012, the contest featured � ve phases of competition. Each phase focused on a di� erent Del Monte canned variety and asked consumers to share how they simply “Add Some Garden” to their favor-ite meals by adding a can of Del Monte green beans, corn, tomatoes, peaches or pears.

“I already used Del Monte products, so I combed through recipes I already made,” Campanario said.

When Campanario’s � rst submission, a recipe for tomato sauce, didn’t come up on top, he decided to rethink the compe-tition.

“I noticed people were submitting reci-pes that they already made on a regular

basis – things like peach pie and pan-cakes,” Campanario said.

He said he found those recipes to be too general and that they didn’t feel like the spirit of what Del Monte wanted.

For the peach round, Campanario set out to � nd a recipe that was already good, but could be improved upon in an unexpected way. � at’s when his mother’s ceviche recipe came to mind.

“It was a great recipe,” Campanario said. “But it always seemed like it need a pop of color.”

By adding Del Monte peaches to his Peachy Keen Ceviche, Campanario said he found the perfect balance of spicy and sweet. He beat out four other � nalists and took home the Grand Prize – a culinary tour worth $10,000.

A Global Account Manager for a tele-com company, Campanario’s win came as somewhat of a surprise.

“� is is new territory,” Campanario said. “But I think it’s fair to say I will try this again.”

Campanario has yet to decide when he will be cashing in on the week-long tour, which will take him and a guest to Napa Valley and San Francisco, but said he and his wife are looking forward to the trip.

“For me, the wine tour sounds pretty exciting,” Campanario said. “And the cooking class.”

Kendall Lum, a senior at Issaquah High School, has advanced to state in the PTSA Re� ections art contest. � e theme this year is “Magic of the Moment.” Kendall sketched himself receiving a gold medal at the state � nals in track and � eld. His sketch is titled “Magic of the Moment:Special Olympics Gold.”

Five students from the Issaquah and Sammamish areas have been named can-didates for the Presidetial Scholars Pro-gram. � ey are Steven L.

� e name would certainly be � tting as site A, a 16-acre piece of land opened to the public in 2011, has a rock on the property named “Big Rock.”

Councilmember John Curley o� ered al-ternative suggestions, like switching “rock” to “boulder,” or possibly adding letters.

“Can you add the ‘er’ and make it ‘Big-ger’,” he asked, jokingly.

Ultimately, the council asked Parks Di-rector Jessi Bon to take the name “Big Rock Park,” back to Pigott for consideration to

see if it is a possibility. “We will have a better Big Rock Park

than Duvall does,” city manager Ben Yazici said.

Over the past months, they asked resi-dents to suggest new park names online, at the library and at farmers markets. School children also o� ered several of the 101 name suggestions.

Pigott donated 51 acres of park land to the city in 2010. Two more sites, totaling 35 acres, will open to the public in the coming years.

� e old baseball � elds at Lake Sammamish State Park aren’t much to look at, on most days.

But Rick Ravsten remembers when the � elds were home to state championships and some of the area’s most earnest competition as the home to the Liberty rugby program, the � rst of its kind on the Eastside.

“It was really challenging to � nd � eld space,” Ravsten said. “We stepped into Lake Sammamish by default.”

Coach Josh Young and the Eastside Lions, which re-cently signed a three-year lease to make the park their new home and bring rugby back to the park it � rst called home in the region, hope the area between Northwest Samma-mish Road and the south end of the lake can again bring together a community and gives a glimpse into a park’s uncertain future through its past.

A� er operating as nomads and traveling around between Marymoor Park and local high school football � elds, program director Josh Young said the Lions are thrilled with a more permanent setting they will help maintain. � e group is using the � eld for practice this season, while it helps make improvements, and will hopes to host games there next year.

“Rugby is all about community,” Young said. “We want to create a place families can come.”

A� er beginning with only a dozen youngsters in 2007, the Lions now � eld teams at six levels including its mini’s program, and also operate an adult men’s team and a budding women’s program. � eir growth has mirrored the increased popularity of the sport and made a more expansive locale a necessity, Young said. It also allows them

to maintain the sense of community that comes with a � eld capable of supporting a day full of games.

“It’s already a beautiful park,” Young said. “� ey want it maintained well and that is what we plan to do.”

Sports at Lake Sammamish State Park are nothing new and while Ranger Rich Benson said as a general principle, the state has moved away from contracting with sports clubs for use of its spaces, it could be a way to increase visibility and sell more of the Discovery Passes that are on pace for a drastic shortfall from projected revenues.

A local Little League helped put in the baseball � elds now used by the Lions decades ago and the Issaquah Soc-cer Club calls another set of � elds adjacent to NW Sam-mamish Rd. home. Benson said lacrosse and even cricket, another sport making its way to the Eastside via expats, have also shown interest in one form or another.

“We’re di� erent from most state parks,” Benson said, noting its relatively urban location. “We have much more of a demand for that kind of thing.”

� e park’s location is also prime for the Lions, which draw players from the Snoqualmie Valley to Bothell and Mercer Island to Sammamish.

“� ere are 6,000 high school students in that corridor with Eastside Catholic, Eastlake and Skyline,” Young said. “It’s the perfect spot.”

Even more, it gives the program and park a connection to it’s sporting past. For Ravsten, who recently retired from coaching a� er nearly 30 years of bringing the game to the area, it is also a bridge for the current rugby community.

“Josh has done a tremendous job,” Ravsten said. “It kind of ties in the old and the new.”

For the past eight years, Michelle French has split duty between the United States Soccer youth national teams and local select club Eastside FC, which fea-tures many of the area’s top players.

Beginning on Friday her mission will become sin-gular: take the United States Women’s U20 team to the World Cup in Canada.

French was named the head coach of the U.S. Women’s U20 side last week a� er spending nearly a decade working with the program as a youth coaching assistant and will travel with her squad to Spain on Friday. Her task is to build an experienced sta� , identify the nation’s best un-der-20 players and turn them into a cohesive unit capable of taking on the world’s best.

“It’s an honor and a responsibility,” French said. “You never know when you’re going to have that op-portunity so when you get it, you have to grab hold of it.”

While the upcoming opportunity is certainly a prestigious one, French said leaving an Eastside FC program that helped build her coaching philosophy will be di� cult. Unlike the squads she coached at the club level, her U20 squad will feature collegiate-aged women with much more experience on and o� the � eld than the teenagers she worked with previously.

“� e best part of coaching club soccer was the friendships and relationships with the parents and families,” she said. “Winning a game or a tournament is great, but I will always remember and cherish the relationships.”

One of French and Eastside FC’s most accom-plished players is Issaquah High School forward Audrey � omas, a junior who has won back-to-back 4A KingCo Player of the Year honors. � omas and “Frenchie”, as she is a� ectionately known, met eight years ago when � omas guest-played for a team con-sisting of older girls and has worked with her closely in the seasons since.

“I have met very few people who are as passionate about the game and the development of her players as Frenchie is,” � omas said. “She understands us and can relate to us, so when you combine that with her drive and passion when she is being serious, you get a coach that girls want to listen to and that they respect tremendously.”

French takes the reins of a U-20 team that won the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in 2012 over Germany and will look to defend its title in Canada in August of 2014.

Murray Franklin, 14410 Bel-Red Road, Bellevue, WA 98007, is seeking coverage under the Washington State Depart- ment of Ecology’s Construction Stormwater NPDES and State Waste Discharge General Permit. The proposed project, Defur Property, is located at 23812 SE 32nd Street in Sammamish, in King. This project involves 2.09 acres of soil disturbance for residential construction activities. Stormwater will be discharged to a Existing Storm drain system along SE 32nd Street, and an unnamed creek tributary to Lake Sammamish . Any persons desiring to present their views to the Washington State Department of Ecology regarding this application, or interested in Ecology’s action on this application, may notify Ecol- ogy in writing no later than 30 days of the last date of publication of this notice. Ecology re- views public comments and con-

siders whether discharges from this project would cause a mea- surable change in receiving water quality, and, if so, whether the project is necessary and in the overriding public interest according to Tier II antidegradation re- quirements under WAC 173-201A-320.Comments can be submitted to:Department of EcologyAttn: Water Quality Program, Construction StormwaterP.O.

room – treats the students later will give to another class. � e students also were planning an event for sta� and state work-ers for which they would prepare all the food.

“I love it here — it’s my home away from home,” said Pat Barry, who start-ed as a teacher’s assistant seven years ago.

� e kids really like being in her class, Barry said, because it’s an elective. Stu-dents can earn a a two-year certi� cate in food han-dling, which can help them get work in a grocery store, restaurant or anywhere food is involved. � ey also get a chance to cater, learn to make nutritious meals on a budget and how to use le� overs.

“� ey make freezer meals for Timber Lake Church, which distrib-utes the meals to various needy organizations,” Barry said. She pays for the ingredients out of her own pocket.

Next door in parent-ing class, Debbie McBee, who has taught at Echo Glen for 23 years, has the kids engrossed in a lesson on the male reproduc-tive system. Her goal is to teach them how to properly raise children, to learn about sex and abuse — in terms other than slang.

� e course begins with teaching them abstinence but o� en it’s too late.

� e parenting class was requested by the courts McBee said, for preg-nant girls and expectant fathers, not unheard of in Echo Glen. She uses a closet full of mechanical babies to teach the kids how to take care of an infant. One boy will have a 3-year-old when he gets out of Echo Glen, so this is a valuable tool McBee said.

� e class produces lots of questions, with hands

popping up all around the room.

“What can’t you guys eat when you’re preg-nant?” one boy wants to know.

McBee tells him the expectant mother can eat almost anything, but a

healthy diet and no drugs or alcohol will lead to a healthier infant.

McBee says she tries not to read her students records before she meets them.

“I’m dealing with their education,” she says. “I

don’t want to hold any-thing against them. � e reason I’m here is because I think these kids can turn themselves around.”

Sta� writer Linda Ball can be reached at 425-391-0363,

ECHO GLENCONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

The kids at Echo Glen are housed in cottages, with 16 to 20 per building, each in their own individual cells. Each cottage is geared toward a speci� c type of treatment model. Upon intake, each child is tested to determine where they need to be. There are cottages for those dealing with substance abuse, sex of-fenses, female mental health, male mental health, anger management issues and then there are the maximum security cottages. The only cottage that is co-ed is the drug treatment cottage, but it’s divided into zones. There is one restroom per four kids, but only one is allowed in the restroom at a time.

Both mental and physical health needs are met at Echo Glen, with a doctor on sta� three days a week, and dentists every day. Youths who arrive with metham-phetamine mouth desperately need dental work. A psychiatrist is on sta� three days a week, and three consulting psychologists are always available.

There are usually four security o� cers on duty, but some days only two due to budget cuts. But all of the sta� is trained in de-escalation and dealing with resis-tive youth.

Recreation is an integral part of daily life at Echo Glen. A large � eld is used for football, soccer and baseball. A gymnasium and indoor pool are on campus. One hour a day each student is expected to engage in some sort of physical activity.

There is also a chapel for spiritual nourishment. The kids at Echo Glen are there six months on average but some have been

there for as long as three years. Girls can stay until they are 21 – if a girl was tried as an adult and has additional time to serve a sentence, she will be transferred to an adult Department of Corrections Facility at age 21.

Without any PTSA or built-in community support, the teachers at Echo have made an Amazon Wish List of books, and they are asking for broad community support.

A breakdown of the facilities

� ere is a full dental clinic at Echo Glen Children’s Center. Principal Mike Williams said kids who come in who have been involved with methamphetamine usually need a great deal of dental care. LINDA BALL, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

An additional 4,000 students are expected in Lake Wash-ington School District schools over the next nine years, according to the latest enrollment projections. � at will require more classroom space, Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce and Deputy Superintendent Janene Fogard told the school board at its Feb. 11 meeting.

� e district had 25,408 students as of October 2012. Pierce added that school o� cials are doing preliminary

planning for funding measures that may be put on the Feb-ruary 2014 ballot. Her goal, she told the board, is to have a recommendation to the board by late May or June.

A bond measure could include funding to build new schools or additions to current schools. Another option could include changing feeder patterns or boundaries to send students to schools where there is more room.

� e area served by Eastlake High School shows a need for space for 236 students at the high school level and 124 at middle school by 2021-22. Total capacity including por-tables will provide enough space for elementary schools.

LWSD expects 4,000 more students in next nine years

Gerald Chertavian, founder of Year Up, a nationwide network of training and education programs for low-income young adults, will be the featured speaker at Bellevue College Foundation’s 14th Annual “Become Excep-tional” Luncheon on May 1.

� e event, which raised nearly $280,000 last year, provides funding for academic and need-based scholarships, as well as programs that support educational opportunities for BC students. Chertavian began his career in banking on Wall Street and, a� er earning an MBA from Har-vard University, co-founded Conduit Communications, which he helped grow to $20 million in annual revenues with 130 employ-ees in three countries. A� er

selling the company in 1999, he founded Year Up.

� e luncheon is free to attend, but guests are encour-aged to make a donation. More information and to RSVP is available by calling 425-564-2386, emailing [email protected] or online at bellevuecol-lege.edu/foundation and clicking on Events.
