 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | West Seattle video

Leading his school’s first assembly as Denny International Middle School – that second word is brand-new this year – principal Jeff Clark offered a well-received explanation for his bright outfit. He spoke within the past hour to a cafeteria filled with the 700-strong student body that speaks more than 22 languages, according to a fact sheet Seattle Public Schools media liaisons handed out. Clark also pointed out the visual representation of that – these flags hanging overhead:

Part of the new “international school” program includes Spanish/English immersion – Denny teacher Leticia Clausen is teaching a humanities block in Spanish, and is shown in our next video introducing costumed students who performed a dance from the Mexican state of Oaxaca:

(A sign of Denny’s new focus – as Clausen left the stage, the teacher next to whom we were standing thanked her in Spanish; she replied, “De nada.” The language focus at Denny also includes Mandarin Chinese.) Other performers this morning: Denny’s marching band and steel drummers; toward the middle of this clip, you’ll see Marcus Pimpleton, who is leading music programs at Chief Sealth High School this year as well as his duties at Denny:

The students (and teachers, who lined both sides of the cafeteria) also heard from SPS Superintendent Dr. Maria Goodloe-Johnson, who will appear a few miles east at Concord Elementary School tomorrow morning as part of a similar celebration – Concord, which is in South Park but considered part of SPS’s West Seattle region, is also an international school as of this year (here’s the original announcement), which the district says sets up a pathway from Concord to Denny. They are two of five international schools in the SPS system, along with Stanford, Hamilton and Beacon Hill. ADDED 1:08 PM: One more clip – the actual Oaxacan dance:

West Seattle Montessori School open house – happening now

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | White Center

Less than a week after West Seattle Montessori School (WSB sponsor) moved into its new campus at 11215 15th SW (map) – complete with that spacious playground – they’re inviting you to an open house that’s under way right now. Treats too – free hot dogs, and cake:

We stopped by within the past hour for a quick preview; it’s a great night to be outside but they’re also leading tours inside their new 2-story building:

WSMS moved from the location where they’d been for decades in West Seattle’s Triangle area after the land they’d leased was sold for development. They offer preschool through 8th grade; the 4th through 8th grades are now known as West Seattle Academy (that’s the WSA you see on the cake in the middle photo) – the lower grades have always been popular but they say middle-school interest is taking off too. You’ll find them online at westseattlemontessori.com; tonight’s open house continues till 7:30.

High school football: West Seattle HS and Chief Sealth results

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | WS & Sports

Both of tonight’s games are over: At Memorial Stadium downtown, West Seattle High School (now 2-0) beat Franklin, 28-13; at Southwest Athletic Complex in West Seattle, Chief Sealth High School (0-2) lost to Rainier Beach, 39-0. Seattle Lutheran High School plays North Beach in Ocean Shores tomorrow afternoon. ADDED EARLY SATURDAY: A little more about the WSHS game – which started late and ran long, so our correspondent didn’t get to see much of the Sealth game (we can tell you all the scoring happened in the first half): At Memorial Stadium, Franklin and WSHS played a lackluster first half that was marred by an array of penalties. After the half, WSHS seemed to find their foot and got off to a fast start, scoring on their first series in the second half. In that series alone, sophomore Nikko Emm had two carries for 33 yards. On the night, Emm managed to gain 187 yards. After the game, Coach Davis Lura talked with us about Emm and the change in momentum in the second half:

You can also see game stats at seattletimes.com (WSB partner); and another account of the game is on this site written by WSHS assistant principal Jenni MacDonald. Side note: Former WSHS football standout Aaron Grymes is back in Seattle today (Saturday). Grymes is currently playing for the University of Idaho, so he’ll be at Husky Stadium for the Vandals’ game against the UW.

High-school sports: West Seattle HS volleyball starts with win
September 10, 2009 8:55 am
|    Comments Off on High-school sports: West Seattle HS volleyball starts with win
 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | WS & Sports

Just in, from West Seattle High School assistant volleyball coach Jim Hardy:

Westside’s Volleyball team swept Cleveland HS 3-0 Wednesday night in their season opener at Cleveland.

Seniors Jess Harrison and Mariah Doll were the only returning lettermen on a young Wildcats squad that saw 7 players start in their first Varsity matches. Junior setter Taylor Magera had 23 assists in her Varsity debut, and sophomores Emmie Riley and Nicole Broten turned in solid performances in their first Varsity appearances.

Westside Coach Gail Mowrer was very pleased with her young team and relieved to come away with the win. “They are a very scrappy team that plays every ball to the whistle and always give us a lot of trouble.” Mowrer noted. “With so many young players, we felt that the keys for us would be to execute the fundamentals and try to serve and pass well.”

The Wildcats pulled away late in the first game to win 25-18. They controlled the second set, winning 25-14. In the third game, the Cats needed to come from behind to overcome a 7-point deficit midway through the set as Cleveland came out playing very well. In the preliminary match, the West Seattle Junior Varsity team won their match 3-0. The next match will be Monday night at Nathan Hale [map].

West Seattleites’ first day of school: More photos

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle people | West Seattle schools

With hours to go till the start of what for many is the SECOND day of the new school year, we have collected the rest of the photos kindly shared with us from Day 1. First, that’s Kandie‘s daughter Cece, who started 2nd grade at Gatewood Elementary. We received a few family photos too – 5-year-old Cole is pictured below with mom Jennifer and dad Brian, on his first day of kindergarten at Arbor Heights Elementary:

By the way, Arbor Heights is the first West Seattle public school we know of that’s on Twitter – not surprising since thanks to teacher Mark Ahlness, who’s also involved with the Twitter account (@arborhts), it was also among the first schools ANYWHERE to have its own website, way back when. (They’re on Facebook too.) Now on to Gatewood Elementary – here’s Katie‘s son Emmett checking out his spot in circle in Mr. Skeffington‘s kindergarten class:

Next, Jen shared a photo of her daughters and this explanation – “Bella, off to Madison Middle School, go Bulldogs, and Lauren off to West Seattle High School, go Wildcats!”

We had a couple pix from Lafayette Elementary earlier today – here’s another one, courtesy of Carrie Ann, who photographed daughter Molly with teacher Mr. Bell. (Carrie Ann says her daughter is one of “five or six” Molly’s in kindergarten there!)

Krystal sent this photo showing the lineup outside Lafayette:

And here are her daughters (Sophia at center, 1st grader in Ms. Nyberg‘s class, and Eloise at right, who’s a year away from kindergarten) with neighbor Aine (at left, 1st grader in Ms. Longo‘s class):

Not far from Lafayette, quite the day at Schmitz Park Elementary. Erik’s 8-year-old daughters Hailey, Caitlin and Sophia started third grade in Mrs. Watson‘s class:

They and their schoolmates got to hear from a descendant of the couple who donated the nearby parkland – Alan Schmitz (grandson of Ferdinand and Emma Schmitz):

And second-year principal Gerrit Kischner was clearly energized as he urged his returning students to welcome the newcomers:

One more back-to-school photo – Daphne shares this snapshot of Chloé, 4, and Pascal, 6:

Thanks to everyone who shared back-to-school photos … pix of West Seattle people, places and events, both the good news and the not-so-good news, are an integral part of WSB, and just one way in which this is collaborative rather than a “we make it/you read it” type of creation.

West Seattle Chamber hears from community colleges’ chief
September 9, 2009 8:01 pm
|    Comments Off on West Seattle Chamber hears from community colleges’ chief
 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools

Fitting for what was for thousands of students the first day of school, the West Seattle Chamber of Commerce‘s monthly lunch meeting was keynoted today by Dr. Jill Wakefield, who runs the city’s community-college system after more than 30 years with South Seattle Community College here in West Seattle. The heart of her presentation was the fact that almost everything you think about community colleges is probably wrong – as is everything you think about the job market today. On the former point – she called attention to the fact that 50,000 students are now in the Seattle system, “the second largest higher-education provider after the University of Washington.” And she noted that SSCC is one of four community colleges in the state to offer a 4-year degree (it’s in hospitality management); on the latter point, she talked about the specialties in which trained workers are most in demand, such as health care, and noted that while “green jobs” and training for them is growing in popularity, the actual job market has not quite caught up yet. She stressed the importance of technology and the broad adoption of it among students and teachers, saying that 9,000 students in the Seattle system are taking at least one online course now, and that by 2020, 70 percent of classes will be online or “hybrid.” Along with looking to the future, she gave a nod to SSCC’s 40-year past, outlining a bit of its history, dating back to the first classes, before the Puget Ridge campus was built, including some held in the West Seattle High School building. CHAMBER NOTES: Watch the group’s website at wschamber.com for news on next month’s lunch meeting; in the meantime, State Sen. Joe McDermott will be the next “Local Elected Official” at the brown-bag Lunch With LEO at the Chamber offices (RSVP ASAP, only 10 seats) Sept. 24; tickets are on sale for the Bordeaux, Bites and Bingo fundraiser October 2 at the SODO facilty of West Seattle-based Herban Feast.

Two Lafayette Elementary students’ photos happened to be among the first we received today (thanks to those who’ve answered our request for “kids starting school” pix if you didn’t mind sharing – it’s so much nicer to “meet” individual people, instead of us just heading out and getting a wide shot of school buses pulling up somewhere) – First, that’s Brynn, whose proud mommy Brandi explains was “preparing for her big day in Mrs. Bell’s kindergarten class at Lafayette. The atmosphere was perfect for the first morning at school – sun, laughter and new friends to be made.” Also attending Lafayette for the first time ever today was 4th grader Zack – stepson of longtime WSB Forums contributor Hopey:

Starting kindergarten at Gatewood Elementary today, here’s Jordyn (thanks to mom Karisse):

And mom Marcia sends this photo of Aidan on the first day of Kindergarten at Hope Lutheran, noting that he’s in Mrs. Burza’s class:

Back-to-school day for thousands of West Seattle students
September 9, 2009 6:03 am
|      1 COMMENT
 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | West Seattle video

As Seattle Public Schools start classes today, Pathfinder K-8 principal David Dockendorf and his student body – now grown to almost 500 – begin in the Cooper building on Pigeon Point. As you heard him say during those remarks at the “opening ceremony” last night, Pathfinder is finally under one roof, after years on the former Genesee Hill Elementary (now closed) campus with some classes in portables. He also acknowledged the difficulty of the changes for those who were displaced by the district’s closure process, including the hundreds who were in the Cooper Elementary “program” when it closed. Also speaking at last night’s Pathfinder ceremony, Duwamish Tribe chair Cecile Hansen:

This morning at Pathfinder, principal Dockendorf and PTSA president Akemi Hart will welcome parents with a reception after their children have gone off to class.

Start times are big news at many West Seattle public schools this year – Pathfinder will start classes at 8:20, not long after the start times at the public middle and high schools here, but many elementaries are starting later – as late as 9:25 am, at Sanislo and Schmitz Park. (Start/end times districtwide, school by school, are listed here.) The district says the new transportation policies that led to start/end time changes will save $2.2 million.

Other SPS notes for West Seattle – Several local schools start the new year with upgrade work completed over the summer (Alki and Lafayette among them); this is the second and final year that Chief Sealth High School will be in the Boren building, as renovations and upgrades are completed at its permanent campus, where a new Denny Middle School is being built (scheduled for occupancy in 2011). Aside from Boren, other shuttered schools in West Seattle – Hughes, Fairmount Park and most recently Genesee Hill – are scheduled to remain idle this year.

Today of course also is the first day of school for most of the West Seattle private schools that haven’t already started: among them, West Seattle Montessori (WSB sponsor) opens its new campus in White Center; Tilden School starts with a half-day today, and a Back-to-School picnic tonight. (Got school news? Let us know!)

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | WS & Sports

(video added 1:33 am Sunday – Lucas Driscoll 33-yard pass to Conner Mullan)
All three high schools in West Seattle have now had their season-opening games – two last night (WSB coverage here) and one tonight – Seattle Lutheran High School hosted Darrington at West Seattle Stadium. Final score – Loggers 18, Saints 6. Our correspondent’s just back and we’ll add more here in a bit.

1:44 AM: Added video atop this report; meantime, more on the game, as promised: The Saints played penalty-free, but failed to overcome the Darrington running game. Darrington kept the ball on the ground for the better part of the night, controlling the clock, and the score. The Saints’ only score came on a four-play drive that saw starting quarterback Lucas Driscoll, a senior, replaced by freshman quarterback Trevor Forsell. Forsell handed off to senior Jake Lovely, who ran it 35 yards for the score. On the night, Lovely had seven carries for 62 yards and was the offensive stand out for he Saints. Next week, a road game — the Saints travel to Ocean Shores to play North Beach at 2 pm Saturday (9/12).

High-school football update: West Seattle, Sealth season openers
September 4, 2009 10:50 pm

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools | WS & Sports

We’ll add a detailed report here later; first, both games are in the books: West Seattle High School over visiting Belmont (from just outside Victoria, BC) at West Seattle Stadium, 33-6 (covered live on Twitter at @wsblive, including a half-hour delay while an injured Belmont player was tended to – he went to the hospital for observation of what’s believed to be a “neck stinger“); Sammamish over visiting Chief Sealth, 27-0. Seattle Lutheran plays its first game tomorrow (Saturday), facing Darrington at WS Stadium.

ADDED 2:11 AM: From the WSHS game – first, a short video clip of the traditional postgame congratulations etc.

WSB co-publisher Patrick Sand reports Belmont presented West Seattle with small Canadian flags. As for game highlights: Running back Danny Phan had 3 touchdowns on the night. Other stars of the game were Isaiah Jenkins, with a couple of key runs in the 3rd quarter; he also intercepted a Belmont pass that ended Belmont’s best drive of the night. Belmont finally scored with less than 2 minutes to go in the game, but missed the extra point when their kicker fumbled the ball. Next week, it’s WSHS vs. Franklin, 5 pm Friday night (Sept. 11) at Memorial Stadium (Seattle Center). Now a few notes about Chief Sealth:

(WSB photo from the final moments of Sealth @ Sammamish)
Next week, Sealth hosts Rainier Beach at Southwest Athletic Complex. In a discussion of tonight’s game on our Facebook page, Sealth’s new athletic director Sam Reed said, “The boys played hard, and I am proud of them. They competed with a small squad and got some new players some game experience. Looking forward to seeing them incorporate some more players over the next couple weeks.”

Look for coverage tonight of the SLHS/Darrington game at WS Stadium.

High-school football season kicks off in West Seattle this weekend

That’s a very quick snippet from our visit to West Seattle High School‘s varsity football practice session Wednesday afternoon at Madison Middle School (where the Wildcats are practicing until Hiawatha field renovations are done later this year; here’s another brief clip). We published their schedule here 2 weeks ago; their kickoff game is 7 pm tomorrow, West Seattle Stadium, vs. Belmont Secondary (from British Columbia). Chief Sealth High School football gets going tomorrow too, 7 pm Friday at Sammamish, and here’s their schedule; and Seattle Lutheran opens its season vs. Darrington, 7 pm Saturday at West Seattle Stadium (SLHS calendar here).

WSHS is coming off its Metro Sound Division title season, and the coaches’ poll at the Seattle Times (WSB partner) also picks them to repeat. The team’s fundraising campaign is stepping up too – you can see head coach Davis Lura‘s video message about it on this page at Fundblast.com, which also details the discounts available through the Gold Card the team is selling (which you can buy online through a link in the lower-left section of this page). Watch WSB on game nights for scores from all three local high schools – we’ll be tracking other sports this year too. Good luck, everyone!

South Seattle Community College (which you of course know is in West Seattle) isn’t just a place for vocational courses, 2-year degrees, other traditional community-college offerings … not only do they offer 4-year degrees too and some studies you might not expect, they also offer one-time events and continuing-ed classes, like what’s coming up next week with FSN Northwest reporter Jen Mueller – “Talk Sporty, Lite,” described by the folks at SSCC as a “happy hour” event previewing a workshop Mueller will teach in October for the “sports-challenged” who want to be able to talk sports with friends/family. It’s at 5:30 pm September 9th, $20/person including appetizers and wine-tasting (gotta be 21 for that last part) – read on for the rest of the announcement from the college: Read More
