A2 • Friday, April 5, 2019 | Cannon Beach Gazette | CannonBeachGazette.com Academy visits legislators in Salem By KATHERINE LACAZE For Cannon Beach Gazette Third-graders from Can- non Beach Academy got a taste of state politics with a trip to Salem on Monday, March 18, to visit with local legislators. “We wanted to get the children involved in advo- cating for their own educa- tion,” academy director Amy Fredrickson said. The charter school part- nered with the Oregon Coa- lition of Community Char- ter Schools for the trip, and participated with nearly 20 other schools and dozens of students, board member Kel- lye Dewey said during the academy’s regular board of director meeting March 14. Leading up to the trip, the academy’s third-graders drafted letters to their repre- sentatives — including State House Rep. Tiffi ny Mitch- ell, of District 32, and state Sen. Betsy Johnson, repre- senting District 16 — defi n- ing issues affecting charter schools and offering solu- tions. The in-person meet- ings at the state capitol were also to talk about “the lack of equal access that charter schools are met with,” Fred- rickson said. For example, she said, charter schools don’t have access to the state’s School Improvement Fund. “We spoke to our legis- lators about how vital that funding would be to our school in terms of improv- ing the current building and when opening a new school in the long term,” Fredrick- son said. “We also advocated for eliminating the proposed budget cuts, which will addi- tionally impact our school, as well.” In other news The academy will par- ticipate in the city of Can- non Beach-sponsored 12 DEATH NOTICES Jean E.

Board member Barb Knop said the city approved for the acad- emy kids to select two loca- tions on campus where they can plant trees, and moni- tor them as they grow. On April 12, the students also will walk to the south end of Cannon Beach near the Tree City USA sign, where adult volunteers will plant trees and the kids can observe for educational purposes, Knop said. The board discussed details for its PTO fund- raiser, which will take place from 6 to 9 p.m. May 18 at the Cannon Beach American Legion Post 168. The event will include a silent auction for arts-related items, food and live music. Help knock out knotweed on the Necanicum River Cannon Beach Gazette North Coast Land Con- servancy is seeking volun- teers for one more assault on invasive Japanese knot- weed that had spread widely in its Necanicum Forest Habitat Reserve east of Seaside. Join them for this stewardship day Wednesday, April 17, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Knotweed is a robust weed, native to Eur- asia, that has invaded riv- erside forests on Ore- gon’s North Coast. It was widely planted in logging camps and along headwa- ter streams in the 1900s. Floods transported root masses downstream, cre- ating huge infestations on many Oregon rivers, including the Necanicum. NCLC has been working to rid Necanicum Forest Hab- itat Reserve of knotweed for several years. One more big push by volun- teers will help NCLC get a handle on this invader.
