Siuslaw News
The Siuslaw School Board
met on Wedesday for its
monthly meeting at the
Siuslaw School District Office
on Oak Street.
The Board began the meet-
ing with two special presenta-
tions to students. Siuslaw High
senior Erick Kimbel was
awarded the Citizenship
Award for his academic
achievements and his athletic
contributions to the school.
In addition to Kimbel's
award, the board also present-
ed a new exchange student
from La Paz, Bolivia, Alvaro
Molina, with a gift bag wel-
coming him to the district.
Molina’s host family, Dick and
Carolyn Booth and Kimble’s
parents were in attendance for
the presentations.
Molina will be attending
school here and, according to
the Booths, is acclimating to
the culture change.
“Alvaro is enjoying his stay
so far, and he will be staying
with us for the next school
year,” said Carolyn Booth
The board also heard
reports from district principals
Kerri Tatum, Andy Marohl,
and Michael Harkelrode. The
three Administrators empha-
sized to the board their focus

on the subject of
attendance and their
efforts on improv-
ing the identifica-
tion and outreach to
truant and chal-
lenged students. Harklerode
told the Board, “We are more
focused on communicating to
the students the benefits of
attending school, rather than
relying on the punitive
approach.”
One of the initiatives dis-
cussed in detail was the
Positive Behavior Incentive
and Support Program. The
program has undergone some
modifications and these were
detailed for the board.

regon Coast Humane
Society (OCHS) has
many dedicated vol-
unteers who give generously
of their time and talent each
month; all that greatly con-
tribute to the successful
achievement of the OCHS
mission.
This month, OCHS is hon-
oring volunteer Steen Gray,
who has been selected as
October’s Volunteer of the
Month for his many contribu-
tions over the past approxi-
mately 30 years to this organ-
ization.
Steen’s wife, Averill Gray,
was one of the first volun-
teers at our animal shelter in
the early 1990s, following
their move to Florence in
1991. Steen recounted with a
chuckle that initially his wife
“dragged him along” but,
very soon, he became an
active and dedicated volun-
teer himself as well.
Over the years, Steen took
it upon himself to learn how
to use a digital camera and

Steen Gray
then began shooting the pho-
tographs of the dogs and cats.
The shelter had no website at
the time but clearly was in
need of one, so he “self-
taught” himself again, this
time on how to design and
build a website. It’s one that
served the shelter for many
years.
Co-workers and supervi-
sors describe him as “super
reliable,” and “someone who
can be counted on to do what
is needed.”
Steen has continued to be
an invaluable volunteer main-
taining the computer systems
and whatever else has been
asked of him over the many
years. His dedication to the
animal shelter is greatly val-
ued and appreciated.
OCHS congratulates and
thanks Steen for his continu-
ing dedication to the animals
and the shelter’s mission.
Volunteers serving in every
capacity are the heart and
soul of OCHS. If you can
give a few hours a week to
walk a dog, work in the shel-
ter office or in the shelter’s
thrift shop on Bay Street,
work on a fund raiser (such
as the upcoming Christmas
Store) or any of a host of
other tasks that volunteers
perform, call (541-997-4277
and ask to speak with Sandy
Davidson, OCHS Volunteer
Coordinator.
