Th e animals, which are fi xed,

eventually settled in Fraiser

has 4,000 acres and a crew of

aft er fi ve years as the Lane Edu-
cation Service Director super-
intendent. Aft er his retirement,
he then served in two other in-
terim positions before making
his way to Cottage Grove.
Before Monday’s meeting,
Sullivan was given a heads up
that this conversation would
be brought up and he noted he
was honored and interested in
seeing what the next steps of
the process would be.
“If you were to ask me a
month ago, I would have said

heal together,” he said.
Th ere’s Apache, also a big
guy and, of course George and
Leeloo, a dominate female, and
Willow who has a pen all to
herself. And while the organi-
zation gives the animals names,
part of its mission statement
notes that the animals were
never meant for pets and oft en
times, their rescued animals
come from homes that either
didn’t know their new puppy
was actually a wolf or wolf dog
or, irresponsible owners set out
to purchase a wolf, disregard-
ing the potential danger. Lock-
wood also rescues wolves from
individuals who breed the ani-
mals for slaughter.
“One place, a vet was telling
me, they became aware of be-
cause they were at a trade show
and there was a pelt,” Lucier
said. “And they were selling
it as a summer pelt and, they
found out where it came from.”
Th e wolves at Lockwood’s
sanctuary are paired up in male
and female sets to recreate a
natural environment. Th e or-
ganization also rescues horses
meant for slaughter for over-
seas’ markets as well as coyotes
and parrots.
Lucier still talks about the
feeling he got when a wolf came
behind him and rubbed against
his back before laying down in
front of him. He talks about
George who he says he bonded
with when he fi nally reached
Lockwood and gets emotional
when he describes the benefi ts
interacting with the animals
has for veterans.
“For me, it’s about vet aware-
ness,” he said. “I’m a Grover
and not much goes on here but
I did this awesome thing and,
I mean, I’m on Animal Planet
which is pretty cool. I could sit
here and talk to a therapist all
day and it doesn’t do me any
good but I sit in a room with
other vets and do these things
and we heal.”

world,” said Sullivan. “(But), I
really enjoy working here and
meeting with the people. We
talked about it being a transi-
tion year, we spent a great deal
of time at our retreat talking
about what transition is.
“And you’re right Sherry, we
have a lot on our plate. Really
some important things we have
to do.”
Aside from selecting a new
superintendent, SLSD’s plate
includes the fi nal stages of the
Warren H. Daughtery Aquatic
Center renovation, a decision
on the fate of Latham Elemen-
tary in addition to the recent
opening of the new Harrison
Elementary School.
“Th e timing on this is good
in terms of need for more con-
versation and looking at this.
I agree with what you’re both
saying, in terms of the tran-
sition is complex and is very
time-consuming,” said SLSD
board-chair Alan Baas. “I want
to remember our responsibility
to the district. We promised the
district, we told them we would
start a search process shortly.”
At the school board’s special
session on Monday Sept. 17,
where the focus was the mis-
sion and values of the board,
the possibility of Sullivan re-
maining as superintendent was
briefl y brought up.
“I’m not advocating one way
or another on that situation,
I’m just saying that if it’s a pos-
sibility we’re going to explore,
we should do it sooner rather
than later because it eff ects so
many other things,” said board
member Taylor Wilhour.
Notes from Monday’s meet-
ing:
Mission and Values
Th e board continued a dis-
cussion from a past meeting on
updating the district’s values
and missions.
Reviewing the purpose
of mission statements and
how they help shape the de-
cision-making process, the
board moved forward in their
selection process. Th ey have
decided to hold on to “chil-
dren come fi rst” as the driv-
ing mission with additional
ideas of “always learning,
teaching and caring” and
“safe, respectful and inclusive
schools and community.”
Moving forward, the board
will pass these along to cabi-
net members and school ad-
ministrators.
Vision for the Year
Th e board talked about
various priorities, goals and
ultimately the vision for the
future. On a higher level, the
conversation focused on a
high-quality instruction and
an advanced learning pro-
cess while also mentioning
the upcoming superinten-
dent search, the new pool and
working on chronic absentee-
ism.
Board Assignments
Interim superintendent Lar-
ry Sullivan oversaw the pro-
cess of having board members
pick both a school and pro-
gram that is going on in the
district to focus on. Th e board
members will be visiting their
schools and programs and will
be informally reporting back
to the board during meetings
throughout the year.
Community Costs
Sullivan shared with the
board expenses that the board
has paid around sponsoring
community events such as
events put on by Peace Health,
Rotary, City of Cottage Grove,
Chamber of Commerce and
Community Foundation. Th e
district paid $4,100 in events
and dues.
