Othello School Board approves 2016-17 budget

OTHELLO — Othello School District officials approved the budget for 2016-17 at a special meeting this week. The budget includes a $48,552,376 general fund. The general fund pays for most school operation, including salaries, supplies and school operation. The capital projects fund, which pays for construction projects, was budgeted at $3,440,000. The debt service fund pays back bonds issued for previous construction projects and was budgeted at $2,352,782. The Associated Student Body fund was budgeted at $457,100, and the transportation vehicle fund, which pays for new buses, was $275,000. The board also approved a new, two-year master agreement with the Othello Education Association (the union representing teachers) and a new agreement with the Public School Employees, the union representing classified staff. The board approved new contracts with the administrative staff at its regular meeting Monday and considered a new agreement with the district’s coaches. In other business, board members received a report on the district’s dual-language program at McFarland Middle School. Dual-language instruction in Othello means classes in English and Spanish for all students in the program. District officials are working on a dual-language program at Lutacaga Elementary, with the goal of providing dual-language instruction to some students through high school. Assistant Superintendent Pete Perez said the program at the middle school and Othello High School will grow as the program at Lutacaga grows, and that eventually about 25 percent of the middle school’s student body will be in the dual language program. But right now there are few resources available for dual-language instruction, Perez said. At the sixth grade level there’s a lack of Spanish-language books and materials, and Othello teachers are translating some of their own materials, Perez said. Currently there’s no dual-language instruction in math and science. District officials are looking at various solutions, including more materials for students in Spanish and teachers and extra training for teachers. Hiawatha Elementary principal John Wiseman presented some information about the school following a site visit from the board. Board members are visiting each school in the district during the school year, spending time talking to teachers, students and parents Sept. 6. Hiawatha's test data for 2015-16 has been released, and the school didn't meet the district or state standard in language arts or math. There were some bright spots, he said - fourth- and fifth-grade students showed improvement over the previous year.

Trump comparisons wrong

I believe it’s an outrage to call the campaign a movement, to compare a racist, woman-hating name-caller, who states his acknowledgment of David Duke and the KKK and what they represent, to other candidates and to Martin Luther King and the movement for African-American rights to integrate our nation as one, not segregated by color or race. You have called Mexican immigrants murderers and rapists, and Muslims terrorists. Where is the compassion for other countries in need that seek freedom and a better life in the United States, land of the free and a better opportunity for their families? Our Constitution is based on justice and liberty and all created equal.

While reading Nick Wallace’s campaign literature regarding the Grant County Superior Court Judge race, I needed an answer. Actually, a clear definition of the statement “10-plus years of judicial experience as a judicial officer in Grant County Superior Court on a temporary basis.”

Retired judge endorses Wallace

Because I was a superior court judge, retiring in 2009, people ask me which one of the candidates for judge is most qualified. Nick Wallace has been practicing as a trial lawyer for 20 years. I know him well. During the 16 years I was on the bench he appeared regularly in my court and before the other judges as well. He is a skilled trial attorney and is well qualified to be a judge.
