To help mitigate the learning loss, and to provide kids with an opportunity to catch up on studies, the Centralia School District has several summer school programs aimed at keeping more than 200 students on track. Currently, about 220 students are attending the elementary summer school program. About 120 students in kindergarten through second grade are at Fords Prairie, with the re- Pete Caster / [email protected] mainder at Oakview Elementary Donna Baxter, a teacher at Fords Prairie Elementary, helps a irst-grader with a math question during the Centralia School District's summer school program on Wednes- School, which focuses on third day morning in Centralia. through fifth grade. The courses help students who are behind reach their rec- ommended benchmark levels, although the program remains open to all students. Steve Creel, the summer school administrator, said the five-week program extends the year to expand learning. “We don’t want them to fall behind, we want them to continue to progress,” he said. “The worst thing (for the students) is to disengage.” Classes mostly focus on reading, writing and mathematics.

Initiative sponsor Joseph Backholm did not return mes- sages seeking comment, but the campaign posted a note on its website saying that it "will not give up the fight to protect the state's girls and women and is considering all of its options for repealing the ‘Open Locker Room’ rule." "The current law is gro- tesquely dangerous and in need of dramatic revision," the statement says. "We should have this issue on our minds when we vote this November because a more thoughtful Legislature could solve this problem without the challenges of putting an issue on the ballot." The initiative push came following news that a state regulation took effect in December that requires buildings open to the public — including schools — to allow transgender people to use restrooms and locker rooms of the gender they identify with. The state Human Rights Com- mission said the new rule was a clarification of the state's existing anti-discrimination law that added transgender people as a protected class in 2006.

I wonder if it’d also help with these needed structures to enact a small license tab and plate system for bicycles, since a certain amount is being spent on that infrastructure also. It wouldn’t have to be much, as the costs of providing that resource are small, but just enough so that the owners of bikes could do their part also.

MMA UFC 200: Silva to the Rescue After Jon Jones’ Positive Drug Test WILD RIDE: Tate Steps Into Main Event Fight; Anderson Silva Steps Up When Jon Jones Fails Drug Test By Lance Pugmire Los Angeles Times LAS VEGAS — It makes perfect sense that the sport popular- ized by surprise outcomes has been checkered all week by un- expected, dramatic happenings setting up Saturday’s UFC 200. Even Friday’s weigh-in took an alarming turn when the seconds ticked toward a 10 a.m. deadline and main-event fighter Miesha Tate hadn’t reached the scale. Tate, making her first women’s bantamweight title defense when she meets Brazilian Aman- da Nunes, apparently was relying on a personal scale incorrectly calibrated, because after using the additional minutes to sweat off extra ounces, she met the limit by half a pound at 134.5.

Archbishop Charles Chaput, who is known for strongly em- phasizing strict adherence to Catholic doctrine, issued a new set of pastoral guidelines for clergy and other leaders in the archdiocese that went into effect July 1. The guidelines reflect a stance taken by St. John Paul II. "Undertaking to live as brother and sister is necessary for the divorced and civilly remarried to receive reconciliation in the Sacrament of Penance, which could then open the way to the Eucharist," the guidelines read. Church teaching says that unless divorced and remarried Catholics received an annulment — a church decree that their first marriage was invalid — they are committing adultery and cannot receive the sacrament of Communion. Chaput says the new instruc- tions stem from Francis' sweep- ing document on family life released in April.
