Letter from PTSA Co-Presidents
|
Greetings Parents, Students, and Teachers! It is mid-October and hopefully everyone has settled in to the new school year. PTSA has been going full steam working on a variety of projects to benefit the community of LWHS.
Our PTSA membership is increasing weekly and we are currently at around 300 members. This is still quite a ways from our goal of 500 members. Your PTSA membership allows access to the online school directory, the right to vote on PTSA business, and the satisfaction that you are joining millions of other parents concerned with the health, education and welfare of all students. Be a part of your child's school - sign up online - and get involved!
Approximately 80 students took advantage of our first Fear-Free SAT and ACT practice exams. Additional testing dates at LWHS are coming in January. Visit our website in December for more information.
Thank you to our fabulous School Beautification Chairs (and Master Gardeners!) Karen Tollefson and Lisa Brown. Together with the help of Student Activities Director Valerie Yob, the grounds of LWHS are ready for winter. Over 130 students, teachers and parents worked hard to improve the grounds of our school.
Our next General Membership Meeting will be Wednesday, November 19 at 7pm. After our brief business meeting, we will feature our Parent Education guest Julie Madsen from the College & Career Center. The meeting and presentation, "Beyond the Four-Year College," will be held in the College & Career Center.
We hope to see you there! Go Kangs! Liz Hedreen and Anne Ryan, LWHS PTSA Co-Presidents

| At the September 24 PTSA General Membership Meeting we were fortunate to have an outstanding speaker in college counselor Deborah Cossey (Rainier College Counseling). She gave an engaging and informative parent education presentation on "College Prep: What Parents Need to Know in 2014." She offered parents many reasons to feel hopeful about the college application process, and passed on a wealth on information that was useful to both the new parent and the experienced parent. Some examples:
- Did you know that by May 1, 61% of colleges still do not have full enrollment for the coming school year? The sub-10% admittance rate is NOT the norm, and there are many, many excellent options out there for our kids beyond the highly selective schools that we hear about all of the time.
- Many colleges give weight to "demonstrated interest" from prospective students, which means everything from college visits, to emailing questions, to something as simple as opening up and looking at emails (and clicking links!) from the school.
- Only 59 percent of first-time students at four-year institutions complete their degrees within six years.
If you were not able to attend, or weren't able to get one of the handouts, she has provided an online copy. Many thanks to Deborah for sharing her time and expertise!
The next PTSA General Membership Meeting will be Wednesday, November 19, at 7pm. Our guest speaker will be Julie Madsen from the College & Career Center who will discuss the many post-high school options besides four-year college. Her presentation will be in the LWHS College & Career Center, located right off the Commons, outside the Counseling Office.

Advocacy in the PTSA
You're Invited to a Brown Bag Lunch Session
|
Topic: Universal Background Checks for Gun Purchases, I-594 vs. I-591 When & Where: Thursday, October 16, 12-1pm, LWSD Resource Center Why This is Important: The Washington State PTA has endorsed Initiative 594, and opposes Initiative 591. Meredith Goldstein (LWHS PTSA) and Linda Leste (Kirkland Middle/Peter Kirk PTSA) will make a presentation on Initiative 594 in support of universal background checks for gun purchases, and discuss why this is important to PTSA members. There will also be a representative from the competing initiative, I-591, to present their views. Both of these initiatives are on the November 4 election ballots. The Brown Bag Lunches are a series of monthly information sessions on issues that are important to LWSD PTSAs and community. Held on the third Thursdays of the month, they are organized by your Lake Washinton PTSA Council. Watch the Kang Crier for future topics. Advocacy is a central part of your PTSA. We join with other local PTSAs around the state to set legislative priorities for the Washington State PTA. We are a strong voice for children, engaging in grass roots advocacy at the local and state level. Visit the WA State PTA website for more information on the advocacy program. Questions? Email Advocacy Chair Meredith Goldstein.

LWHS Dance Team
First 2014-�2015 Dance Competition to be held at LWHS
|
Come join the five-�time State Champion Lake Washington High School Dance Team at the first dance competition of the season, to be held in Kirkland on Saturday, November 8. You may have been to an LWHS football, soccer, basketball or volleyball game, but when was the last time you attended a dance competition? These competitions are loud and fierce with performances from 15 dance teams -� each team fighting for a qualifying score to compete at the district championships. You will not be disappointed! Few people realize how fierce the competition season is for dance and drill teams. Most sports programs span just a few months between the first practice and the state championships, but dance teams prepare for eleven months for their state championship. Under the leadership of Coaches Lindsey Beck and Jeanne Wehr, the girls begin their season in May, culminating 11 months later at the State Championship. They will have put in over 400 dedicated hours in one season! The team has made our school and community very proud with their achievements. Help support them at this season's competition kickoff! What: The Dance Competition will be attended by fifteen 2A, 3A and 4A regional high school teams, and will include about 20 routines in the categories of Pom, Military, Kick, Hip Hop, Show and Dance. Where: LWHS Gym When: Saturday, November 8; doors open at 12pm, competition starts at 1pm Cost: $7 ($5 with ASB card) Concessions and refreshments will be available for sale at the event with all proceeds benefiting the LWHS Dance Team Program.

Nick Of Time Heart Screening
Forms Due Monday, October 27
|
Every three days, a teenage athlete dies of sudden cardiac arrest. Through a partnership with the Nick of Time Foundation (NoTF), Lake Washington High School is hosting a heart screening to detect abnormalities that could lead to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). The screening will take place between 9am and 3pm on Wednesday, November 5, in the main gym. The screening process includes blood pressure taken by local fire-fighters, a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG), a private consultation with a doctor, and CPR and AED training. The ECG screening process is separate for each gender. Students will be excused from classes for screening appointments during school hours.
The Seahawks and Huskies team doctor, Jonathan Drezner, MD, is the Medical Director of NoTF. Many doctors who attend are cardiac specialists and/or are affiliated with Seattle Children's Hospital. This is an amazing event that many schools wait years to host, and could even save a child's life.
The screening application forms are available at the LWHS main office and are also available on the NoTF website. Screening application forms and appointment requests (if your child would like a specific time) are due October 27, and can be turned into or emailed to Julie Madsen in the LWHS Career Center. The suggested tax-deductable donation of $25 to cover the screening costs can be paid on the Nick of Time website, by attaching a check to the screening form, or by bringing a check the day of the event. Scholarships are available.
Volunteers are needed to help with the screening and the break room. The list of opportunities is posted on SignUpGenius. Lunch is provided for the volunteers; if you'd like to help with food, the signup for food is also on SignUpGenius.
More information is available in the flyer, at the NoTF website, or by emailing LW student organizer Bryden Robertson or [email protected].

Showing Kang Pride
LWHS Beautification Day
|
|
Freshly weeded and mulched bed
|
The next time you're at LW, take a look at the weed-free beds, new lavender and freshly spread mulch. The grounds are looking great due to the efforts of many who participated in Beautification Day.
Thank you to Valerie Yob who organized the help of leadership and fall sports students. With only a couple of bee stings to be had, 134 students helped dig out and rake weeds, remove dead plants, plant new lavenders, and spread 25 yards of mulch. That's a lot of mulch! (Thanks to the PTSA for funding this vital part of the day.) Thanks also to the students - it wouldn't have happened without you!
Thank you to the parents and staff: Anne Allan, Susie Arnold, Svea Dagel, Steve Davison, Mike Cummings, Andrew Parnell, Karol Pulliam, Ryan Palmer, Christina Thomas, Valerie Yob, and those of you who just showed up and started working.
Lastly, thanks to PTSA Beautification Co-Chairs Lisa Brown and Karen Tollefson for organizing Beautification Day and lending their Master Gardener expertise. Even the weather cooperated for a hugely successful day.

Shi Huangdi Mock Trial
On Monday, September 22, students in the Advanced Placement World History classes completed their first mock trial event, placing China's founding emperor Shi Huangdi on trial. Through research and use of primary source material, students must prove the guilt or innocence of an historical figure in the context of five or six specific charges. Role-playing witnesses or attorneys provides kids a fun and entertaining way to learn about historical figures and the difficulty in determining their legacy. Mr. Dawson and Mrs. Berge thought the kids did a great job. Next on trial: Julius Caesar!

ASL Club - Students Learn and Practice
|
American Sign Language is the fastest growing World Language in the Lake Washington School District. Is your child thinking about choosing this as their foreign language? Students can come to a meeting and give it a try; they'll learn to fingerspell "A-B-C," play silent games and learn a few signs. They'll come back for the fun of signing with friends. ASL Club meets Thursdays after school - students should look for the posters for our meeting time and location.

Great food, entertainment, and a variety of exciting activities are planned. There is something for every grad to enjoy at each location! The details are secret to add to the excitement.
Tickets are their lowest now, at $125 each if paid in full and purchased before October 31. They can be purchased on line at lwhsptsa.org. To pay by check, use the down-loadable registration form.

Sports Safety for Kids - The Gap Between What is Known and What is Being Done
|
A new survey by the non-profit advocacy group Safe Kids Worldwide finds an alarming gap in what is known about sports safety and what is being done to reduce the risk of injury to young athletes, whether playing scholastic, intramural, recreational, select or club team sports.
Here are some interesting stats from the survey:
According to the survey of 1,000 young athletes (7th through 10th grade), 1,000 coaches and 1,000 parents:
- 42% of players report that they have hidden or downplayed an injury during a game so they could keep playing; 62% say they know someone else who has done so.
- 53% of coaches say they have felt pressure from a parent or player to put an athlete back in a game if the child has been injured.
According to the new report, most parents (94%) think that their child's coach is very or fairly knowledgeable about preventing injuries, but they might be surprised to learn that fewer than half of all coaches surveyed say they have received certification on how to prevent and recognize sport injuries. Among high school coaches, for example, only 47% said they have received any certification to prevent and recognize concussions; 46% have received training on broken or fractured bones; 38% have received training on an overuse injury.
