The project would be modeled after a student threat assessment system in Marion, Polk and Yamhill counties, said task force member Dave Novotney, superintendent of Willamette Education Service District. In that system, when schools receive an indication of threatening or destructive behavior, the system deploys a team of law enforcement, educators and counselors to respond. The team may help connect the student with resources such as mental health counseling or provide the student with more super- vision. “The idea is to intervene with hope we can nudge them off their trajectory and help them make decisions that are positive,” said John Van Dreal, director of school and risk management services at Salem-Keizer School District. The system started taking shape in 1999 in Salem- Keizer schools and later expanded to all of the schools in the Willamette ESD. Measuring the effective- ness of the system has been challenging. “You can’t measure events that don’t happen,” Van Dreal said. Surveys of school admin- istrators and counselors indi- cate the system has helped to enhance a sense of safety on campuses, Van Dreal said. Schools in several other states, including California and Idaho, have adopted the protocols, he said. Recommendation by the state task force calls for establishing response teams in eight regions in the state and providing training to employees. Threat assessment capa- bilities across the state are spotty, said Novotney, who also is a task force member. Threat assessment protocols in some school districts are UH¿QHGZKLOHLQRWKHUSODFHV the plans are nonexistent, he said. Expanding the system statewide would cost about $1.1 million, Novotney said. The task force voted unan- imously Oct. 29 to recom- mend the plan to the Legisla- ture in February and named it as one of its top priorities for the legislative session. “It is much better to prevent these things than to respond to them,” said Beaverton police Chief Geoff Spalding, a task force member. The task force also continues to pursue plans to resurrect a tip line for information on threats to educational institutions and start a statewide database of VFKRROÀRRUSODQVDQGVDIHW\ protocols. 0 % APR for 60 Mo. on 13 Models!

A weightlifter, Bill thought he could alleviate the pain by curtailing his heavy squats. It didn’t help. Chris, a cyclist, decided to get more serious about his training. He had no trouble increasing his distances, but now he’s mystified by persistent shin pain. Joan, who takes aerobics classes four times a week, feels pain in one heel at the beginning of each class, but doesn’t take it seriously because it gradually lessens as the hour passes. Three athletes, three sports, three complaints, all of which may have one solution: orthotic devices. Properly called orthoses, orthotic devices are removable shoe inserts, custom-molded of various materials, designed to correct a foot misalignment, deformity or dysfunction. Orthotic d e v i c e s p e r f o r m functions that make standing, walking and running more comfortable and efficient, by altering slightly the angles at which feet strike a walking or running surface. Doctors of podiatric medicine prescribe the use of orthoses as conservative approaches to many foot problems: their use is a highly successful, practical treatment form. The aim is to improve foot function and minimize stress forces that could otherwise cause foot deformities, which have been traced to many back, hip and knee problems. S TACEY J.
