Volunteers �lled the Stevenson El-ementary School gymnasium in Bellevue on Wednesday morning, where they sort-ed through hundreds of back-to-school supplies as part of the 18th Annual Good Start Back To School program.

�e event is a year-long e�ort by the local non-pro�t Congregations for Kids, a coalition of local congregations work-ing together to ensure any student who needs supplies for back-to-school has what they need.

�e coalition, with support from Eastside

businesses and community organizations, gathers donations and stu�s backpacks to ful�ll student requests, which have been compiled by the school district.

Since 1996, Congregations for Kids has �lled more than 15,000 backpack requests from students in the Bellevue School District. �is year, the program will provide backpacks and school sup-plies to approximately 1,650 students from low income families in the Bellevue School District - 100 more than last year.

BY CELINA KAREIVABELLEVUE REPORTER

A new project proposed for the Bel-Red neighborhood would capitalize on its future location as a light rail corridor to contain o�ce space, neighborhood retail space, residential units, underground parking, parks and open space.

If permitted, Burnstead Construction's Pine Forest Properties, Inc. would contain six buildings and provide 2,172 parking stalls once done and would be just south of the East Link alignment when it opens in 2023. �e development could hold up to 670 new residents and 2,221 workers.

�e space is just north of Lake Bel-levue and a car dealership and is used by a warehouse and three o�ce buildings. City documents indicate that buildings would range from nine to 12 stories.

Development is anticipated to occur over two phases. Approximately 1.16 mil-lion square feet will be constructed along with approximately 2,200 parking stalls. �is total includes approximately 712,000

gross square feet of commercial, 420,000 gross square feet of residential, 25,000 gross square feet of neighborhood retail and approximately one acre of park and other open spaces.

�e Bel-Red corridor from 120th Av-enue Northeast to Northeast 26th Street has been staked out for re-development. East Link and the main Microso� cam-pus have made the area a desirable space. Goodman Real Estate (GRE), a Seattle �rm, has plans for four multi-family buildings at the former site of Angelo's Nursery between Bel-Red Road and 156th Avenue Northeast. A mixed-use development is planned on the former Group Health hospital site in Redmond, just north of Bel-Red Road.

A public meeting on the Pine For-est project is set for 6 p.m. Aug. 28 at Bellevue City Hall, 450 110th Ave. NE, Conference Room 1E-108.

Fara Li found volunteering at Bellevue’s Mini City Hall at Crossroads helped her acclimate to her new home. COURTESY PHOTO

Sometimes when she Skypes family in India and Nepal, she’ll � nd him packing his suitcase a� erward as if to go home.

For Dugar, the autonomy of being state-side is something she is still acclimating to. Back home, and surrounded by in-laws and cousins, meant that she couldn’t leave the house without checking with a relative � rst.

Dugar says she doesn’t know how long her family will stay in Redmond. � e couple frequently visits India and when they aren’t on the phone or Skyping rela-tives, she’s sending photos of her son.

“Life is more comfortable here,” says Dugar. “But for me, at a certain point, I want to go back and to raise my children with family and relatives around them.”

JULIA'S STORYJulia Chikulaeva’s � rst moments on the

Eastside were like a movie, she remembers. “When driving from the airport to Bel-

levue and we [hadn’t] slept for more than 24 hours, but it was a shock,” she says. “I remember I was sitting in the cab and watching through the window with an open mouth.”

An engineer from a hometown just outside of Moscow, Russia, she and her husband had moved for her husband’s job as a so� ware engineer at Microso� . Chikulaeva’s H-4 visa prevented her from � nding work. But because she knew no one but the pet dog the two had moved with, Chikulaeva found herself wrestling with symptoms of depression.

“� e weather, the grey sky, they don’t have a driver’s license yet,” says Estrella Chan founder and ESL instructor of English Around the World who works with many recent immigrants. “Until they learn the bus system, they have to wait until their spouse comes home.”

Chikulaeva spent her spare time studying English, walking her dog, taking classes through Bellevue College or watching TV, but the isolation soon got to her. Chikulae-va’s husband had his peers at work and the

stability of his job. Other members of his team were also from Russia, so he enjoyed some familiarity there.

“At � rst I wanted to go home to Russia...Now it’s better,” she says. “Here, people are more relaxed, people smile [at you on the street] and it makes my mood better.”

FARA'S STORYWhen Fara Li � rst moved to Bellevue

from Beijing with her husband, she was struck by the beauty of the Northwest – the clean air, greenery and comparative vacancy of the streets. But the � rst moment she felt de� nitively that she was in a new country was when she realized how little she knew about the laws and systems of her new home. Driving one night she heard a cop car's siren behind her, but didn't think to pull over.

“� ere were so many thoughts going through my mind. I felt really bad. Can they keep a record of that? Can that a� ect my credit?” wondered Li aloud, who except for the Internet and a few close friends, didn't have anyone to consult for answers. “It was really a bad feeling – to not know.”

Encouraged by Chan, Li began volunteer-ing at Mini City Hall, a neighborhood service center that specializes in nine di� erent lan-guages and connects East Bellevue residents to neighbors less likely to take advantage of City Hall. In China, Li was also employed at Microso� , but she decided upon moving that she wanted to pursue a di� erent career in human resources. Socializing also helped Li's initial symptoms of depression.

"I'm not that extroverted…I like to talk with people, but I [have to] make an e� ort" says Li. "I had that concern when I came here."

� ough she’s since found work, she struggled at � rst to develop a routine: "I had things to do, but there's not a deadline or a � xed schedule, so you don't see the point in getting out of bed."

Volunteering helped her build a connec-tion: "It was only a couple hours a week, but it was something to get involved with. And I was so excited about that."

Kindering graduates 436 children from special programA total of 436 children graduated from

Kindering's Early Intervention Program on August 7 at Crossroads Park Pavilion as happy parents and friends looked on. � e graduates received a diploma and a � ower to commemorate their growth and success.

Of the 436 youngsters, 124 are from the Bellevue area.

Kindering provides birth-to-three therapy help for special needs children. When most children come to agency for the � rst time, the chance they will learn to walk, crawl, or even swallow may seem remote.

"Our experience at Kindering has been noth-ing short of a miracle

in our lives," said Lola Ryan, whose twins were born two months early.

Both boys experienced speech delays and one had an ICU stay that may have caused the social fears he experienced during his � rst two years, Ryan said. Kindering pro-vided the family toddler/preschool classes and home visits from a speech therapist.

"Our boys will soon enter pre-K in the Bellevue school system as typically devel-oping students, with much credit to the intervention and assistance from Kinder-ing," Ryan added.

Started in 1962 in a church basement as the Eastside Preschool for the Special Child, Kindering is the only provider of such services for families on the Eastside. Today, Kindering is the largest neurodevelopmental center in the Northwest, helping more than 3,500 children and their families annually.

“To maximize a child’s potential, early treatment is profoundly important," said Kindering Executive Director Mimi Siegel. "Research shows that early intervention in the lives of these children correlates with higher lifetime achievement, reduced need for special services later on, and a happier and more ful� lling life overall.”

At the end of their time with Kindering, 99 percent of graduates show measurable progress in development, and 38 percent of kids no longer require special education services because they have bridged the gap between them and their peers.

Individualized programs at Kindering include physical and speech therapy, special education, family counseling, a nutri-tion and feeding team, integrated Spanish programs, parent-child in-home programs, social support programs for children with Autism, parenting and sibling support and training, and specialized foster care for children who are developmentally disabled, medically fragile, or generally at risk be-cause of abuse or neglect. � ese programs continue to grow and improve every year.

More information about Kindering is avail-able at 425-747-4004 or at kindering.org.

Little Nickel to team upwith Bellevue Reporter

Beginning in September, Sound Publishing, Inc. will combine the strength of its community newspaper reader-ship and home delivery with the respected classi� ed con-tent and brand recognition of its Little Nickel products.

Little Nickel’s advertising will be delivered within the pages of the Bellevue Reporter.

“Our Nickel advertising clients will certainly see bene� t of having their advertising message delivered directly to homes. And our readers will no longer have to remember to pick up a Little Nickel at a rack. � is change just makes sense,” said Gloria Fletcher, Sound Publishing president.

Little Nickel rack distribution will be eliminated.Sound Publishing has established � ve zones in King,

Snohomish and Kitsap counties to give people a wide range of options for their advertising. Each zone has a circula-tion between 50,000 and 80,000. Advertisers will be able to place ads in any or all zones and/or in individual Sound Publishing newspapers.

As part of the business change, the Little Nickel o� ces in Everett, Tacoma and Portland will be closed. Many Little Nickel employees will be retained and will move into other Sound Publishing o� ces throughout the Puget Sound area.

Bellevue Fire Departmentreceives re-accreditation

� e Bellevue Fire Departments has received re-accred-itation by the Center for Public Safety. Bellevue Fire Chief Michael Eisner and Battalion Chief Bruce Kroon accepted the re-accreditation while attending the International As-sociation of Fire Chiefs conference in Chicago.

“Accreditation is an essential tool for improving upon the high level of performance established by the Bel-levue Fire Department,” said Acting City Manager Brad Miyake. “It ensures that the public is getting great value for their tax dollars in the form of quality services.”

Bellevue Fire was � rst accredited in 1998 and was one of only 8 departments at the time in the nation to re-ceive this prestigious recognition. � is process embod-ies a pursuit of excellence within the � re industry; CPSE measures each and every aspect of an organization and benchmarks those � ndings towards continuous quality improvement.

� e center's accreditation program re� ects a com-prehensive self-assessment and evaluation model that enables � re and emergency service organizations to examine their service levels and performance in a way that allows them to compare to industry best practices.

Currently there are only 171 � re departments that are accredited. Bellevue Fire Department is one of four depart-

ments in the state of Washington to receive the award.� e re-accreditation from CPSE is the third for the

Bellevue Fire Department and is one of several city of Bellevue departments that have been accredited by na-tionally recognized, professional organizations.

Woman injured in sofa � reA woman at a senior living facility su� ered minor

injuries Monday night from a � re in a sofa.Bellevue � re� ghters responded at 8:15 p.m. a� er

an automatic smoke alarm was activated on the third � oor of a building in the 13300 block of Southeast 26th Street. Ladders were used to access the apartment and � re� ghters quickly extinguished the � re a� er the build-ing’s automatic sprinkler system was activated.

� e cause of the � re was a burning cigarette. A total of three apartments were impacted by water damage, but no residents were displaced from the building. A preliminary damage estimate was put at $75,000.

A sta� member at the facility reportedly assisted the woman in exiting the apartment a� er she attempted to put out the � re with a pitcher of water. � e sta� member closed the door as they le� , helping to prevent the � re from spreading.

� e resident of the apartment was transported to Har-borview Medical Center in Seattle where she was treated for minor injuries.

Davidson concedes electionBellevue City Council member Don Davidson, who

sought re-election for his Position 6 seat, has conceded to competitors Lynne Robinson and Vandana Slatter on Wednesday a� ernoon.

Early primary results indicated a close race between Da-vidson and Slatter. At the most recent count, Davidson had 25.18 percent of the vote to Slatter’s 26.3 percent. Robinson took an easy lead with 48 percent. Votes will continue to be counted through Aug. 20.

“Although I am not advancing to the general election, my commitment to protecting Bellevue’s neighborhoods, preserving our parks and environment, and keeping our property taxes low remains steadfast,” said Davidson in a statement. “I look forward to working on these issues as I continue my service on the council for the remainder of my term.”

Davidson has served on-and-o� on the council since the 1980s. He vowed to continue his environmental activism and civic a� airs in the city.

It’s back to school time here in Bellevue. Well, almost. Students in Bellevue’s public school actually get back into the classrooms on Tuesday, Sept. 3.

But today we begin reporting on a number of new programs and initiatives that will be in place this year in Bellevue schools. � e stories will continue over the next several issues and include a look at fall sports, too.

By many measures, Bellevue schools are among the top in the nation. � e district long has been considered a bell-wether district, one that constantly pushes to � nd better ways to educate students.

A couple of those are highlighted in today’s Reporter.On page 13, you’ll � nd a story about the district’s dual

language school where all students will be taught in Man-darin Chinese and English simultaneously. � e new school will be the only Mandarin Dual Language School in the state which follows a two-way model.

An article on page 10 tells how the district is expanding its DreamBox program for elementary students. It’s a math pro-gram that adjusts to each student’s individual learning pace. Not only does the program help students who struggle with math concepts, but also students � nd it is fun to do. As one third grader said: “I like the days when I can use DreamBox.  A� er school, I go home and play DreamBox.”

� e above just scratch the surface of what’s going on in the classrooms.

� ere’s also an opinion piece on this page from Rod Jones, a trustee on the Bellevue Schools Foundation Board, about how that organization works hand-in-hand with the district to produce world-class education for our children.

Bellevue has a lot going for it. From what we can see, our children are in very good hands.

– Craig Groshart, Bellevue Reporter

E D I T O R I A L

Back to school stories show why studentsare in good hands

When I moved to Bellevue from Michigan in June 2007, I found a welcoming

community. � e construction cranes that outlined downtown Bellevue – and have since returned – represent-

ed a vibrant and growing economy.

Yes, Bellevue is a thriving com-munity full of actively engaged citizens and lead-ers, a dynamic business environ-ment, beautiful landscapes, and an increasingly diverse population.

Many of the largest and fastest-growing companies in the state and, in fact, the entire Paci� c Northwest, have chosen Bellevue as their base of operations.

We are also home to one of the top school districts in the nation – no accidental twist of fate. We have committed parents, educators and community leaders focused on providing a world-class education for our children.

Perhaps this storybook view of our community, along with the widely held belief that Bellevue is an a� uent and homogeneous suburb, leads some to conclude that Bellevue schools don’t need additional fund-ing or community support.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Our schools serve an increasingly diverse student population. � irty-two percent of our students speak Eng-lish as a second language, with 48 � rst languages spoken at one high school alone. Non-white students make up 53 percent of our school district population. One out of � ve Bellevue students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, including 66 percent in one elementary school.

Meanwhile, Washington state has the third-highest percentage of jobs in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM), yet we are ranked 49th in preparing our children for these available jobs. Current estimates show only six percent of current ninth graders will eventually graduate from college with STEM degrees.

� e bottom line is that we are serving an increasingly diverse stu-dent population while navigating a rapidly changing and more competi-tive global economy. In spite of the recent news on state budget increas-es for education, we still fall below the national median on educational spending per pupil. Without com-munity support, funding remains inadequate to address the challenges our children will face in the future.

Fortunately, our commu-nity does have an opportu-

nity to take our children’s educational quality into our own hands. Since its inception in 1979, the Bellevue Schools Foun-

dation has raised more than $23 million for our

schools, funding programs such as VIBES (Volunteers in Bellevue’s Education System), national board certi� cation for teachers, kindergarten early literacy intervention, and high school STEM curriculum implementa-tion among many others. Its fund-ing of pilot programs that transform learning makes it one of the most respected public schools foundations in the nation.

Bellevue is indeed a vibrant community with many strengths. However, we also must recognize our new challenges and opportunities by reengaging our community and supporting our students. � e Bel-levue Schools Foundation provides a proven blueprint for doing just that.

Rod Jones is a VIBES mentor and serves as a trustee on the Bellevue Schools Foundation Board, Sam-mamish High School STEM Advisory Board and � e University of Washing-ton - Bothell STEM Advisory Board. He is Managing Partner at In� nitas Ventures, a Bellevue-based private equity � rm and lives in Bellevue.

Newport High School will have its 30th reunion in October and although I am NHS Class of 85, I’ve been connected

to the Class of 83 for 46 years, through my sister Michelle.

All my life I’ve lived under her shadow. At Tyee Middle School she placed into humani-ties, a special class for advanced thinkers. I didn’t pass the entrance exam. 

She scored second chair � ute in band. I was third violin in orchestra. She graduated from University of California, Berkeley; I, the University of Washington.

She became vice president of a savings and loan. I squandered my English degree driving buses and cashiering.

I think most people are sheepish on attending high school reunions. � ey don’t want to review the path they’ve taken against others. If we do the comparison game it leads to unhealthy results.

� ere is an old story about seeds that were sown. Some fell on stony places, others scorched by the sun, and some on good ground that mul-tiplied. � e parable means to me that only the select are saved, and there is only one way.

But people are complex bundles of human-ity. College isn’t for everyone; a successful job may bring you riches, yet keep you from your family. � e pattern of marrying your college

sweetheart, having kids and the house with the white picket fence isn’t reachable for everyone. In a� uent Bellevue, it’s even harder when there are expectations to follow only one route.

Wherever the journey, one needn’t wallow in the shadows, but rejoice that you are alive, and every day you can move towards the light. Bellevue’s libraries, community centers and continuing edu-cation programs offer fertile ground for any seed. No matter your age. Also, the Bellevue Reporter’s calendar offers wonderful ways of staying con-nected with the community and most are free.

And Michelle, my older sister, I am proud of you and everyone in the Class of 1983, even though I may have sold your � ute online. Go Knights!

Marnie DelCarmen lives in Bellevue.

Reflecting before reunitingOther Voices

Marnie and Michelle DelCarmen

Gov. Jay Inslee is enjoying a two-week vacation hiking in Alaska, probably thinking little about a second term.

But a decision will be made in Spokane next week which could cause him havoc should he pursue re-election in 2016.

� at’s when 117 Republicans, three from each of Washington’s 39 counties, will gather

to elect a new leader of the state’s Grand Old Party.

While it’s only August 2013, the person chosen will be looked upon to design, then pour, a foun-dation strong enough to support a viable challenger to Inslee, who has had a rocky few months at the helm – including a near-

miss shutdown of state government.A carload of candidates are vying to

become the boss. Early projections put two women, Luanne Van Werven of Lynden and Susan Hutchison of Seattle, in the driver’s seat.

Van Werven is the acting chairwoman of the Washington State Republican Party, � lling in when Kirby Wilbur skipped out to a new job. Hutchison, executive director of a Seattle foundation, ran unsuccessfully for King County executive in 2009.

Whoever wins – and it could be someone else – will receive a to-do list familiar to every Republican Party chairman before them. And for that matter every Democratic Party chair-man as well.

It calls upon the leader to:■ Raise lots of money and spend it wisely;■ Deliver the Republican message

clearly and constantly to the media and the masses;

■ Supply the grass roots with data and dol-lars for training and deploying volunteers;

— Keep peace among the partisans.Arguably, the last task is the trickiest, if not

most important.Washington Republicans’ tendency of late

is to pull apart rather than together in the crunch time of elections. Curbing this habit is a Herculean chore requiring a blend of personal � nesse and political � erceness.

Consider two symptomatic snapshots from 2012.

Shortly a� er the primary, tension si� ed through a Republican phone bank operation in Everett when backers of defeated guber-natorial candidate Shahram Hadian resisted making calls on behalf of the party’s nominee, Rob McKenna. Hadian ran to the philosophi-cal right of McKenna and his followers found the former attorney general too liberal for their tastes.

Fast forward to the � nal days of the cam-paign when a fundraising letter signed by party icon Dino Rossi went out on Wash-ington State Republican Party stationery. Rossi didn’t make the pitch for McKenna, but for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Apparently Romney asked and McKenna didn’t, even though McK-enna had a shot at winning and Romney did not.

Neither occurrence cost McKenna victory. Rather, they expose a damning problem the incoming leader inherits: Washington Republicans too o� en allow the personal to become political and it impedes the party’s accomplishments.

Democrats, on the other hand, grin and bury it.

Party members do get frustrated with antics of their chairman, Dwight Pelz. And lawmakers and in� uence peddlers of the Democratic stripe were � ummoxed by Inslee on many occasions.

But if any are worried about the governor’s vulnerability three-and-a-half years from now, they aren’t going to pipe it out to the public.

Such self-in� icted damage would be tough-er to overcome than an attack by a political opponent. � ey know unity right up through election time – even if some Democrats do so with gritted teeth – pays better dividends.

Change takes time.As Inslee vacations with re-election far

from his thoughts, Republicans are getting to ready to make a decision with Nov. 8, 2016, foremost in their minds.

When Gail Round was laid o� from her job in 2009, she went back to school. She began taking classes at then Bellevue College in the evenings, both to retool herself and in the hope of keeping busy. She already had two degrees, an MBA and a BA in business with 35 years in the � eld.

Using Illustrator, Round began designing greeting cards – bright, colorful cards featuring plants and animals with ink that popped.

“I spent hours learning how to do it,” Round said. “It’s not something they necessarily teach you in class. It’s your style; how do you make something glisten on the page? How do you

make a � ower look like it’s a real 3-D � ower?”

When she showed her work to a friend, she challenged her to make a batch of 50, and Round quickly rose to the

occasion. “I was so much happier,” said Round, who was rehired in

the interim, but kept returning to card-making. Now she is a contender for WalMart’s “Get on the Shelf”

competition, which merchandises local talent a� er asking the public to vote on their favorite products. Round’s cards are eco-friendly and made entirely locally. She has all-occasion batches ranging from Mother’s Day to Birthday cards, and just about everything in between.

Round, who runs operations out of Bellevue, is no stranger to business. She was a program manager for Microso� and an

accounting manager for Matsushita Avionic, a subsidiary of Panasonic. Round, who says she'd never seriously considered herself an artist, drew when she was younger. But cra� ing greeting cards, she says, combines both of her loves: the start-up nature of a new business and the le� -brained creativity of designing.

Early on, she sketched designs on the page � rst. Because ideas came so freely and easily to her, she carried a notebook around with her. But as Round became more adept at Illustra-tor, she took her designs straight to the computer.

“It's a combination of everything. I feel like I have been able to keep learning, growing and doing in my life. All things that I truly enjoy” says Round. “I never planned on greeting cards...but I love making these designs.”

Gail Rounds found a single card design could sometimes take more than 40 hours to create. CELINA KAREIVA, Bellevue Reporter

Even with the ready availability of calcula-tors, math skills are still essential. Fortunately for Bellevue public school students, a shared commitment among Bellevue’s families, com-munity members and businesses enabled the introduction of an exciting math program.

DreamBox, an adaptive math program that adjusts to each student’s individual learning pace, provides support for stu-dents who struggle with math concepts and skills, crucial review for mastering them, and extensions so students who are master-ing concepts can enrich their math skills even more e� ectively.

Bellevue Schools Foundation funded the initial adoption of the program, following a successful pilot in the previous year.

“Programs like DreamBox are a perfect example of what our community does best through its support of the Foundation,” said Foundation Executive Director Roxanne Kröon Shepherd. “We all have a common commitment to supporting struggling students, students who need more challenge, and those in the middle. And of course our community understands the need to help every student achieve pro� ciency so they can succeed academically and thrive in the global economy. � e results from DreamBox have been impressive.”

Somerset Elementary School teacher Has-san Homa explained how DreamBox helped the students in her classroom.

“Using DreamBox has allowed my students to practice skills I introduced during class-room instruction. It has provided additional opportunities to build a strong foundation

of math skills used in kindergarten and even higher grades. Because of DreamBox, my students’ thinking skills have improved tremendously.”

Newport Heights Elementary School third-grade teacher Alisha Singh noted the bene� ts for her students.

“DreamBox is an invaluable asset in my math instruction,” she said. “� e adaptive, engaging lessons keep students interested and challenged and allow me to di� erentiate my instruction with smaller groups of students.”

Of course, when learning is fun and excit-ing, students stay engaged. Because Dream-Box feels like a game, students are enthusias-tic about using it.

“DreamBox is fun,” said Newport Heights third grader Tyler Yockey, a student in Singh’s classroom.  “You get to learn math with lots of di� erent strategies.  You learn to play fun games about math.  I like the days when I can use DreamBox.  A� er school, I go home and play DreamBox.”

� e program was adopted for all students in kindergarten through third grade in the 2012-13 school year, and later expanded to include fourth and � � h grade students. Al-though it started as a pilot project funded by Bellevue Schools Foundation, the district was so impressed with its success that it will take over funding in the 2013-14 school year so DreamBox can be in the schools long term, and Bellevue Schools Foundation funding can shi� to other exciting education initia-tives.

Welcome to what promises to be another outstanding school year in Bellevue. I hope you are excited about the pros-

pect of entering a new classroom, learning new ideas and enjoying all the experiences that make Bellevue a great district.

Your education is our sole focus. Each and every adult in the district knows that providing you the best education pos-sible is the most important job we have every day.

� is year promises to be full of new experiences. A new school dedicated

to Mandarin dual language instruction is opening in our Bellewood location. Sammamish High School, currently

under construction, is being rebuilt to the new state-of-the art standards needed to house a learning center dedicated to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). � rough-out our schools, teachers and sta� are working hard to bring innovations, technology and best practices into the classroom to bene� t you and your learning experience.

You’re not the only ones who will be learning. District teachers and administrators are working harder than ever to learn about new technology and upgrades, the latest teaching methods and training opportunities, as well as ex-plore and celebrate the wide range of cultural backgrounds of our students and families.

District maintenance and grounds sta� and custodians also have worked hard over the summer to prepare our

buildings for the new school year. Our classi� ed support sta� are ready to do their part in making this a great year.

As a student, one of the most important things I want you to know is that you are supported in your education and your life. Bellevue has built an amazing community of support around our students – from the Bellevue Schools Foundation and our amazing corporate partners to the car-ing fabric of parent and community groups and our own district sta� . We continue to be so inspired each day by the intelligence, energy, creativity, passion and compassion of the students in our schools.

I can’t wait to see what you will bring to this new school year. I and the team in our schools and buildings will work hard to make sure this school year is your best experience yet.

Superintendent’s message: Students and others learning this year

Summer break wasn’t a typical vacation

for Kara Cox. Every day during summer school at Lake Hills Elementary, the New-port High School freshman arrived bright

and early, ready to greet the students and get to work.

Kara volun-teered at Lake Hills over the summer as part of the VIBES (Volun-teers in Bellevue’s Education System) program, work-ing in a � rst-grade classroom with teacher Liz Den-ning. Supported by the Bellevue Schools Founda-tion, the city of Bellevue, and the Bellevue School District, VIBES places trained, screened, and caring volunteers in schools to work directly with students.

“I was looking for something to do over the summer,” said Cox. “I went to an orien-tation and really liked the welcoming feel of VIBES, so this seemed like a perfect � t!”

Cox helped out with anything and everything, from checking homework to monitoring kids on the playground. She particularly enjoyed working with the students one-on-one.

“Some of these kids really needed extra help and attention,” she said. “I was work-ing with one little girl almost every day on math and I could tell things weren’t click-ing for her. A� er a couple of weeks, I could see that she started understanding more. � at was really exciting.”

“Kara o� ered so much positive reinforce-ment to the students and made such an im-pact on their experiences in the classroom,” said Denning. “She would watch me teach a lesson and then use the same language when she worked with the students a� er-ward, reinforcing what they had just heard.”

“I learned how to interact with kids in a di� erent way, and be more of a teacher than a friend,” Cox said.

Although she isn’t sure yet what she wants to do for a career, she says that her experience as a VIBES volunteer helped her to see how she could really enjoy working with kids.

“Although I didn’t think I’d be so tired when I got home every day,” she said. “� ese kids have a ton of energy!”

For her part, Denning is grateful for the support VIBES volunteers provide.

“� ere is no way the students could have grown and succeeded as much as they did without the VIBES volunteers in my class-room. � e extra support makes an amazing di� erence for me as a teacher.”  

Julie Benson is communications manager of the Bellevue Schools Foundation.

A new school will open in Bel-levue this fall – in a familiar place. � e Mandarin Dual Language School will open its doors at Bellewood. � e program, formerly located at Ardmore Elementary, has been expanded to become an entire school, an-swering a demand by parents and students who want children to excel in academic learning in Mandarin Chinese and English, simultaneously.

Vivian Tam was recruited to Bellevue speci� cally for this reason. Relocating from Cambridge, Mass., Tam is the new principal at the Mandarin Dual Language School.

Mandarin Chinese is one of the fastest growing languag-es in the world.

“� e Mandarin Dual Language School is a natural � t for Bellevue as it aligns with the growing Chinese population in the city,” Tam said. “Students and families could access excellent educational outcomes through real-life connec-tions and through purposeful teaching and learning.”

� e new school will be the only Mandarin Dual Lan-guage School in the state which follows a two-way model. Student enrollment in the classes is balanced between native language speakers (Chinese) as well as students who speak other languages such as English, Spanish, Hindu, etc. as a � rst language.

� e school will be a dual language school, where English and Mandarin Chinese are used to teach the curriculum throughout the day. � at’s di� erent from a full immersion program such as Puesta Del Sol, where just Spanish is used

to teach the curriculum for the majority of the school day.Both approaches wrap students in a cultural and aca-

demic experience that accelerates the learning, but with di� erent phased approaches, district o� cials said. More than 100 families in the 2013-2014 school year have reg-istered their children for the new school in grades kinder-garten through second grade.

Meanwhile, Tam is busy working with a district transition team to set up the new school to welcome students. Aside from the logistics of setting up a new school, Tam has been busy developing new relation-ships to ensure a strong connection to the community.Her days have been � lled with setting up classrooms and school o� ces, meeting with district transition team members and sta� , connecting with parents, meeting

with Bellevue Mayor Conrad Lee and other Chinese community leaders, to attending the Fu Dog dedication dinner.

“I am drawn to BSD’s and the city of Bellevue’s commit-ment in providing world class opportunities to prepare all students to succeed in career and in life,” Tam noted. “I am thrilled to be part of the leadership team in this global city to ensure delivery of academic excellence, multicultural and bi-literate competence, and 21st century skill sets to all students. “

Once the school year starts, the Bellevue School Board will hear options for a name for the new school. At the same time, the district will explore options for a permanent site as it explores options for a permanent location.

Peggy Price has been working on trails for as long as she can remember, and her connection to the pathways that wind throughout Newcastle’s wooded hills stretch back even further.

As a child growing up around south Seattle and Renton, Price would build path-ways in the sand and hike with her father in the forests around their home, examining the footpaths and critiquing their engineer-ing. At a cabin her grandfather built near the Tye River, she said the biggest challenge was resisting the temptation of forging a network of trails across neighboring properties.

“We went hiking, and my dad would show me what worked and what didn’t,” she said of her introduction to hiking. “I’m trying to pass it on.”

More than a decade a� er her work in Newcastle began, Price is on the cusp of taking another step forward with the grand opening of another section of the May Creek Trail Sunday, Sept. 15, which will form a link with the Highlands Trail that stretches east and eventually, the Olympus and Waterline trails on the opposite side.

While Price and her own family have dedicated countless hours volunteering on every phase of trail development and planning with the city of Newcastle, nearly a dozen projects have also been completed by area Eagle Scout candidates and their troops.

“� ere is no way we would be anywhere near � nished without the Scouts,” Price said. “� e kids really get in there.”

Bill Burris and his son Zach, now a college graduate, have worked alongside the Price family and Newcastle Trails for several years to preserve the heritage of Newcastle’s wooded paths, many of which have been reclaimed from horse trails dat-ing back decades.

Burris said his family came to Newcastle some 30 years ago and like Price, his child-hood included exploring the now devel-oped hillsides and creek beds by foot and even horse.

“It’s a nice way to get out and see the nature and history of Newcastle,” he said. “A part of what Scouts is about is providing for future generations.”

A walk through the sloping, eight-tenths of a mile stretch from the S.E. 89th Place to Highlands Trail at Coal Creek Parkway provides an overview of the time, energy and resources local Eagle Scout candidates have put in to earn their distinction and continue to grow New-castle’s trail system.

Projects completed by local troops dot the trail, from a multi-layer waterline cross-ing to trail grading and resurfacing, and promise to not only enhance the experience for current users, but ensure the history of Newcastle’s trail system is passed down.

“We have a tremendous trail system in Newcastle,” Burris said. “� ere are a lot of opportunities for people to get out in the woods without having to drive miles and miles, and all of that is to the credit of Newcastle Trails.”

Kingen’s drive-in restaurantKingen’s drive-in restaurant was located at the corner of

104th Avenue Northeast and Northeast Eighth Street and operated from 1955 until about 1960. Kingen’s opened six years a� er the new Bellevue High School building opened in 1949. It was Bellevue’s � rst drive-in, operated by Martha and Robert Kingen.

Kingen’s o� ered the usual fast food fare of burgers, fries and shakes, but also advertised a wild blackberry tart as a dessert option. � ey o� ered inside seating as well as in-car service from their car hops. Kingen’s was a popular a� er school hangout for Bellevue High School students. � e Kingen’s son, Gerry, went on to become the owner of the � rst Red Robin restaurant.

Drive-in restaurants gained popularity, especially among high schoolers in the 1950s and 1960s as American car culture grew. � e � rst drive-in restaurant opened in 1921 in Texas. � rough the ’40s and ’50s they spread throughout the country. � e speedy service o� ered at drive-ins was very appealing to those who were constantly “on the go.” Drive-ins also o� ered patrons the then novel experience of eating in their cars.

Today Bellevue residents looking for the drive-in res-taurant experience head to the Burgermaster on Northup Way.

Richard Max LoderMay 6, 1924 – August 4, 2013

Richard, a long time resident of Yarrow Point, was born in Tama, Iowa, the son of Earl Cecil Loder and Vera Irene Young. He moved to Washington State to work for Boeing Aircraft Company as a tool and dye maker. Later He joined the U.S. Marine Corps to participate in the �ghting of WWII. He served in the South Paci�c, �rst on the Island of Tinian and later landing on Okinawa in the initial attack. After the surrender of the Japanese he was stationed in China until his discharge.

He and his wife Juanita, were married in 1944 shortly before he went overseas. They had three children. A daughter, Diane, now deceased and two sons. John Richard, his wife Janet, and William Charles.his wife Nancy. Two grandchildren, Aaron William Loder and Jayme Brossard and four great-grandchildren. His siblings were his brother Ralph Leroy Loder and sister Lois Jane Ferris also deceased.

After his return home he was employed by the University of Washington in their Medical Instrument Facility for 19 years. Later he left to start his own company, Loder Instrument Company, still active in Redmond, Washington under the management of his two sons, William and John.

They purchased property on Yarrrow Point in 1946 where he cleared the wooded lot and built his own house. He made many improvements over the years but it is still the family home and his wife Juanita resides there. He enjoyed creating bonsai plantings and continued his interest in designing his garden in the Japanese style.

For thirty years or more he helped maintain the wells for King County Water District #1 of Yarrow Point. Seven wells provided the water for a section of the point and they were manually cared for without mechanical equipment... He was one of the water commissioners who kept the water �owing.

His greatest passion, besides his family and his insatiable desire to invent and build things was his love of �ying. He was fortunate enough to own his own airplane, a Cessna 172. He �ew it everywhere, and as often as he could. He also loved to hunt, �sh and backpack into many of the high lakes in Western Washington.

He had a great smile, warm heart, and a great sense of humor.and we all loved him.

We wish to thank the caretakers at Comfort Home in Bellevue for their loving attention and excellent care.

Private interment was held at Tahoma National Cemetery, Kent Washington. In lieu of �owers choose a charity of your

Beginning this weekend, Bellevue Arts Museum will host the first solo museum exhibition of Seattle-based art-ist Rick Araluce.

Born in Encino, Calif., in 1960, Araluce dabbled professionally in vari-ous mediums before he began to seri-ously dedicate his work to miniatures in the early 1990s.

For more than 20 years Araluce has being creating and exhibiting his detailed miniature environments. These elaborate scenes are noteworthy for their ability to reveal solitary moments in time and, though void of human fig-ures, they are filled with feelings of loss, regret, anxiety, and mystery.

Represented by various galleries around the country, including Traver Gallery in Seattle, Araluce has been able to create and exhibit his often haunt-ing miniatures. He has also received a number of awards, including a Seattle Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs City Artist Projects Award in 2006, a Pollock/Krasner Foundation support grant in 2008, and in 2009, an Adolph and Esther Got-tlieb Foundation Award.

Araluce is also well known in the Northwest for the engrossing, meticulously-constructed miniature and alternately-scaled environments he creates for the Seattle Opera.

The new exhibit at BAM features five new works created specifically for the museum, which will accom-pany Araluce’s critically acclaimed piece, “The Longest Hours,” which was made for the Museum of Arts and Design’s 2011 exhibition. This will be the first time the piece has been on display in North America.

New works include lighting, sound, and automation components he is beginning to explore in his work in recent years. Each of these utterly absorbing environ-ments presents a moment filled with the energy of something that has happened or the anticipation of something that is to come. The works invite viewers into a voyeuristic immersion in which they must peer into a grating or through a keyhole to discover the art-ist’s full intent.

“Rick Araluce: The Minutes, the Hours, the Days,” will be on view Aug. 16 - Jan. 31. The exhibit is orga-nized by Bellevue Arts Museum and curated by Nora Atkinson, and possible in part by support from Arts-Fund.

We create great smiles

Police will be out in force between Aug. 16 and Sept. 2, looking for drivers under the in�uence of alcohol, mari-juana, or other drugs during the annual Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign. �e e�ort is being joined by the Bellevue and Newcastle police departments and the Wash-ington State Patrol, among other jurisdictions.

DUI is the leading cause of death on Washington road-ways, accountable for nearly half of the 439 fatalities dur-ing 2012. And, law enforcement o�cials add, even though Washington legalized marijuana for adults 21 and older, it is still illegal and dangerous to drive under the in�uence of marijuana.

Studies have found that marijuana-positive drivers are twice as likely to crash as other drivers. Marijuana use can slow reaction time, decrease the ability of a driver to main-tain lane position, and diminish the ability to pay attention to the tasks of driving. It also interferes with a driver’s abil-ity to perform divided-attention tasks, such as steering and maintaining vehicle speed at the same time.

O�cers can tell when a driver is experiencing other e�ects of marijuana in�uence such as relaxed inhibitions, altered perception of time and distance, disorientation, incomplete thought processes and increased pulse.

�e goal of the extra patrols is to keep people safe during the vacation travel time. If someone sees a DUI, they are asked to call 911.

Last year in King County, during the same time period, o�cers on routine and extra patrols arrested 374 people for DUI. For all of 2012, in King County, 8,578 people were charged with DUI.

Police on lookout for impaired driversMacy's to team up with Soroptimists in charity event

Macy’s will partner with Soroptimist International of Bellevue Metropolitan in the eighth annual national “Shop For A Cause” charity shopping event Aug. 24. Macy’s “Shop For A Cause” is a one-day-only shopping event created to support local charities’ fundraising ef-forts, which has helped raised more than $46 million for charities across the country since 2006.

Macy’s has provided Soroptimists with shopping passes to sell for $5 each. Soroptimist International of Bellevue Metropolitan will keep 100 percent of every shopping pass it sells. �e more Soroptimist Interna-tional of Bellevue Metropolitan sells, the more money it will raise. Customers can purchase shopping passes from Soroptimist International of Bellevue Metropolitan members now.

Pass holders will receive special discounts on most regular, sale and clearance purchases all day, but some exclusions apply.

More information is available at macys.com/shopfora-cause. To purchase a shopping pass, contact any member or send an email to [email protected].
