UPPER MARLBORO – Both
the county council and county board
of education know the public has a
lot of opinions about Prince
George’s County Public Schools
(PGCPS) and they want to tap into
that rich resource of ideas.
On April 19, the Prince
George’s County Council and Prince
George’s County Board of Education met at Dr. Henry A. Wise, Jr.
High School for a joint “Town Hall
Meeting” on education, where
among other things the performance
audit of the school system was discussed with the public.
Members of Parthenon-EY
were present at the meeting and gave
a brief synopsis of the project before
the public was divided into breakout
sessions to discuss various facets of
the school system, including transportation, school facilities and

CAPITOL HEIGHTS – County officials gathered on April 20 to
play some games, but the night was
more a celebration of the economic
development projects they have
won for the county.
At a special preview night at
the new Dave & Buster’s that
opened in Capitol Heights on April
25, county leaders enjoyed food
and games as they celebrated the facility’s opening as well as the positive progress they’ve seen in economic projects county-wide.
“We’re telling our own story
and we’re doing our own thing.
They started to think about Prince
George’s County differently when
we started to tell our story positively. Because when we do that, we get
the best Dave & Buster’s that Dave
& Buster’s has to offer,” Derrick
Davis, chair of the county council,
said.

forward to this opening for years

Capitol Heightsʼ new Dave & Busterʼs opened its doors on April 25. It is

Buster’s. He also viewed it as a sign
of the county successfully attracting businesses.
“It had to start with places like
this, and organizations like Dave &
Buster’s, who believe we can bring
the foot traffic. And we’ll continue
to grow as a county,” he said.
Dave & Buster’s is a restaurant/entertainment company that
operates 83 venues across the country. The Capitol Heights store is just
the second in Maryland and features a restaurant and bar, along
with various arcade-style games
and 192-inch television sets for
sports viewing.
Karl Zarse, the new location’s
general manager, said he was excited to see one opening so close to his
home in Anne Arundel County.
“I’m actually back home, so
personally I’m really excited. Plus,
professionally, the store is going to
be an amazing gem to Dave &
Buster’s as well as this county. So
it’s a win-win for me and a win-win
for pretty much everybody involved in it,” he said.
Capitol Heights Mayor Marnitta King said she views the new
addition as a positive one.
“Capitol Heights has been designated a playful city for many
years, and this Dave & Buster’s being here and bringing wholesome
entertainment to our families is going to continue us in that realm,”
she said.

BLADENSBURG – Maryland’s
top fiscal officer spent some time immersed in history on Monday.
Comptroller Peter Franchot
toured through Prince George’s
County on April 25, visiting three
sites that received state funding approved by the state Board of Public
Works (BPW), of which he is a member. Stops included St. Ann’s Center
for Children, Youth and Families in
Hyattsville, the Town of Forest
Heights Municipal Building, and the
Battle of Bladensburg Visitor Center.
He also spoke at the Greenbelt City
Council meeting that night.
“I love visiting Prince George’s
County,” Franchot said. “I’m very
pleased by this particular site in
Bladensburg because it’s so rich with
history.”
The comptroller said he is from
Prince George’s originally, although
he now lives in Montgomery County.
At each stop, Franchot presented
comptroller’s medallions to Marylanders who make a difference. Recipients included Bladensburg Mayor
Walter James and Greenbelt Mayor
Emmett Jordan.
During his visit to the Battle of
Bladensburg Visitor Center, Franchot
heard from Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission
staff about the Battle of Bladensburg,
which took place August 24, 1814
during the War of 1812.
“Without the Battle of Bladensburg, it might have been difficult for
the British to be defeated at Baltimore. (The loss) was very traumatic
for everyone, so by the time the
British got there, everybody was out
there defending Baltimore,” said Edward Day, acting assistant division
chief of the natural and historical resources division for Prince George’s

Community rallies to support Kettering Boys and Girls Club
after fire destroys its building
Each week The Sentinel visits
a memorable story from its
archives.
Bankers, business executives
and community activists came out
in droves.
One businessman gave a
check for $100 and a box of barbecue sauce.
These and other individuals
came out in support of a radiothon
sponsored by County Council
Chairman Ronald V. Russell, D6th-Mitchellville, and local radio
station WPGC-95.5, at Largo
Plaza April 3 to raise money for
the Kettering Boys and Girls Club
Building.
The building was destroyed
by an electrical fire on March 24,
and Russell spoke with WPGC for
assistance on getting the word out.
“I simply met with [WPGC]
to have the businesses come out
and have a radiothon,” said Russell. “I even had Abe Polin [Washington Wizards and Washington
Capitals president] call me about
this effort.
“So we are getting support
from big businesses and the community in general,” said Russell.

Gov. Larry Hogan announces new state
parks partnership
In recognition of the National Park Service’s Centennial celebration, Gov. Larry
Hogan and Department of Natural Resources
Secretary Mark Belton announced that the
Maryland Park Service will honor the national
“Every Kid in a Park” program. Through this
initiative, which provides complimentary national park admission to fourth grade students
and their families, Maryland will now accept
the pass for admission to state parks. The Earth
Day announcement was made during a National Park Week visit to Assateague Island National Seashore and tour of Assateague State Park.
The Maryland Park Service will accept the
National Park Service’s “Every Kid in a Park”
pass now through Aug. 31 at all 72 state parks.
The purpose of the national program is to increase accessibility to public lands and waters
for children – primarily 9-10 years of age – and
their families. The pass will provide free ad-
The radiothon started at 6
a.m. with the Donnie Simpson
Morning Show and lasted to 6
p.m. during prime-time driving
hours with Adimoo.
“I’m thrilled. It is very exciting to be a part of this and provide
community support,” said Simpson while signing autographs.
“This is what it’s all about, people
supporting people in a time of
need.”

cover additional amenities, such as camping,
boat rentals, or staff-led tours.
As part of the visit, Hogan presented a
proclamation to the National Park Service
highlighting the state’s shared commitment to
connecting and nurturing the next generation
of advocates, supporters and visitors, and
highlighting the positive contribution of the
National Park Service’s 16 national parks, six
national natural landmarks, and two national
heritage areas in Maryland. Following the presentation, the governor took a tour of Assateague State Park, where he reviewed ongoing reconstruction projects following Winter
Storm Jonas.
United Way NCA opens region’s first

Club was able to receive $29,000
from the one day event, but the
fire caused $300,000 in damages.
Tyrone Patterson, Kettering
Boys and Girls Club president,
gave thanks to those aiding in the
rally.
“It’s an outstanding feeling to
have community and government
officials come out in support of
the community,” said Patterson.
“WPGC has done events like this
all the time and I’m happy they are
here today.”
A special guest appearance
was made by Light Heavyweight
Empowerment Center. United Way NCA's Financial Empowerment Center (FEC) is a collaboration with the Prince George's Community College (PGCC) and is located at the PGCC
Largo Campus. The FEC had a soft opening in
November 2015 and an official ribbon-cutting
ceremony April 19.
In our community, nearly one in three
households do not have sufficient savings to
subsist at the poverty level for three months.
That means that the loss of a job, a serious
medical issue or another crisis can leave families in a dangerous situation.
Approximately 260,000 residents in our
region belong to a household that is “unbanked,” which means they are not connected
with mainstream banking services and may be
using predatory services like check cashing
and payday loans to make ends meet.
To help families break the cycle of poverty, United Way NCA's FEC at PGCC offers
free services to educate people on how to create a household budget, manage debt and save
for the future. Services include one-on-one financial coaching, personal and business-focused workshops, tax preparation and housing
counseling.
Champion Roy Jones Jr.
“My man Jeff Simms who
lives in D.C. told me about the
event and I decided to come on the
[WPGCs morning] show and give
support to the community,” said
Jones.
Jones has an upcoming title
bout later this month.
Simpson even made a pledge
for the Kettering Boys and Girls
Club.
“I am about to give $1,000 to
Mr. Patterson personally, and
when the community center
opens, I will be the first one
The FEC at PGCC is the first of several
Financial Empowerment Centers that United
Way NCA will open across the region as part
of its “Community Commitment,” which is a
$12.3 million investment to address the education, financial stability and health of residents
throughout the national capital community
over the next five years.
Hoyer hosts 35th Annual Military Service
Academy Forum
Congressman Steny H. Hoyer (MD-5)
hosted the 35th Annual Military Service Academy Forum on April 25 at the Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro. The forum was an opportunity for Fifth District students and their
parents to learn about applying for admission
at the five United States Service Academies.
Major Herman Bulls, Jr. from the U.S.
Military Academy at West Point served as the
keynote speaker. Students in attendance had
the opportunity to speak directly with college
ROTC coordinators, admissions personnel,
military recruiters, and members of the Fifth
Congressional District Academy Selection
Board.

County council, board of education

special programs.
However, the breakout sessions
were not open to the press, despite a
call for all citizens to take part in the
meeting.
Chris Librizzi, the managing
director with Parthenon, said the
group decided to close the meetings
to the press to ensure they got the
“most honest” answers from citizens, which they believed would be
impeded by press presence.
“We just wanted to make sure
we were going to get the most honest
feedback from people that we could.
This is such a unique opportunity for
us to bring together as many parents
and community members as we
could. We want to make sure that we
hear from everybody and that everybody has a chance to be completely
open and candid,” he said.
As a result, The Sentinel was
not able to listen in on the communities’ complaints and ideas for the
school system.
Labrizzi said the group took the
“unique opportunity” presented by
the town hall to really gauge the residents of the county and find out
what they think needs to be fixed in
the school system. The project is focused around continuous improvement, Librizzi said.
“A lot of the areas we are assessing from the standpoint of con-
tinuous improvement, they affect
students and families just as much
and some cases more so than they affect educators in schools and leaders
in the central office,” he said. “And
if we’re trying to get a sense of
strengths and weaknesses of
processes in the school system, you
can’t sometimes get a full appreciation for that if you are not talking to
people who are in a very real way the
consumers of the school system. So,
that’s why it is so important to hear
from people.”
Librizzi said his team has a very
open mind in regards to what they
expected to hear from families in the
school system. Parthenon is right in
the middle of its process where they
are still gathering data, meeting with
invested parties, and doing research.
“I think both parties understand
they want an objective and comprehensive view of the good, the bad
and the ugly,” Librizzi said.
Derrick Davis, the chair of the
county council, said the council,
board of education and County Executive Rushern Baker III are always working together to achieve
common goals. He said the stakeholders in the school system have all
come together for the performance
audit process because the ultimate
goal is a “world class, 21st century
school system.”
“This is the first such assessment of the county school system in
18 years and we expect when the
work is completed there will be a lot
of very useful results to review and
consider,” he said.
Both Davis and Segun Eubanks, the chair of the board of education, said the public’s comments
and concerns gathered in this
process will be fully considered in
the audit process.
“It’s my hope that tonight’s
meetings will bring about a renewed
sense of partnership and cohesion
between our school district and parents, community partners and government officials,” Eubanks said.
During the meeting, Eubanks
gave examples of how the school
system is moving forward – increased graduation rates, improved
college and career readiness programs, attendance and enrollment –
but said more still can and will be
done.
“We need to hear from you,” he
said.
Despite the importance, emphasized by Eubanks and Davis,
only seven of the board’s 14 members were present at the town hall
and almost all of the board members
and county council members left the
meeting before the breakout sessions began.
Davis said that the comments
made during the sessions would be
provided to the council in a transcript at a later date.

Dave & Buster’s among new county businesses opened in April
From “Businesses” page 1
The store employs 300 people,
according to Jim Coleman, chief
executive officer of the county’s
Economic Development Corporation. He also said the facility was a
$15 million investment, with some
of that money going to countybased contractors.
He said the facility’s location,
in Ritchie Station visible from the
Capital Beltway, made it a great
amenity for Prince George’s.
“A lot of residents are going to
enjoy this,” he said. Anybody travelling from New York down to Miami is going to stop here and they’re
going to get a chance to see what
it’s like here in Prince George’s
County.”
Earlier that day, Coleman and
Davis, with other county council
members, had attended the ribboncutting ceremony for a new Court-
yard by Marriott hotel in downtown
Largo. Named Courtyard by Marriott Largo Capital Beltway, the hotel is the company’s 14th property
in Prince George’s County.
“Prince George’s County has
my dedication to this hotel, this
company and this community,” said
Rickey Earles, general manager. “It
is my intent and vision to make this
Courtyard, not only the best in
Prince George’s County, but the
very best in the United States.”
Coleman said the area is
booming and the hotel’s opening is
a sign of more growth to come.
“With the investment and focus that County Executive Baker
has placed on Largo, now is a great
time to become a part of this vibrant
community. Marriott is investing
here because they realized there is
oil in the ground, opportunity is
plentiful,” he said.
Other parts of the county are
also seeing growth. On April 12 in
College Park, county and University of Maryland officials celebrated
the grand opening of a new facility
for FlexEl, a custom battery company that launched as a start-up at the
college.
“If you are a fearless Maryland
alum like David Hillman or Scott
Plank, or a startup like FlexEl,
know that Prince George’s County,
the city of College Park and the
University of Maryland are united
and welcome your fearless ideas
here in Prince George's,” Council
Vice Chair Dannielle Glaros said.
The company will add 60 jobs,
while the Marriott will add 36
more.
Hyattsville also welcomed a
24-hour Safeway store earlier this
month. The company invested $17
million into the new facility and
hired 171 workers, with job openings still available. The store fea-
tures chef-prepared items in addition to consumers’ typical grocery
needs.
The previous Safeway closed
in 2012, so Eastern Division President Steve Burnham said the new
store’s opening was like a homecoming.
The store will serve as an anchor for the new Gateway at UTC
mixed-use development near the
Prince George’s Plaza Metro station.
Smaller, local businesses are
also experiencing growth. Healthy
Dental, a veteran-owned business
which provides general and cosmetic dentistry services, opened
their second county location in Hyattsville on April 18, with a grand
opening open house celebration
planned for April 30. Their first location opened in District Heights in
March 2015.
“We are here for the communi-
ty,” Madhu Nadimpalli, owner of
Healthy Dental, said.
County leaders say the recent
openings are signs the economic
policies they have put in place are
working.
“I’m glad we started the work
that we did back in 2011,” Davis
said. “We started to understand
from the perspective of economic
development, if you work hard to
bring our crime down and work
hard to build our education system
up, we could attract business.”
Baker shared those sentiments.
“When we talked about, five
years ago, we were the economic
engine of the state and the Washington region, everybody was happy to
hear us say that. Now what you hear
is Montgomery County (competing), saying ‘no, we’re the economic engine,’” he said. “We feel really
good about the progress we’re making.”
Comptroller tours county sites funded through board of public works

More than 500 British soldiers
fell at the battle – which took place as
a series of three main skirmishes –
before they eventually broke through
the American ranks and continued on
to Washington, D.C., where they
burned public buildings to demoralize the country. The next major battle
was the Battle of Baltimore, and it
was during that siege when Francis
Scott Key penned the poem that
would become America’s national
anthem.
The BPW approved a $125,000
bond bill in fiscal year (FY) 2012 to
allow the visitor’s center to complete
renovations and construction to better
showcase this history. Day said much
of the funding went to the monument,
located across the street from the park
itself next to the George Washington
House parking lot.
“It will last for a very, very long
time. Forever,” Day said.
Aaron Marcavitch, executive director of the Anacostia Trails Heritage Area (of which the Bladensburg
site is a part), said the state’s investment has led to other revitalization in
the community as well.
“It is money well spent, in a
community that needs to tourism,
needs the impact. You’re getting a big
return on your investment,” he said.
Day agreed the bond was a good
use of state money.
“It’s not only about (Franchot)
approving money, it’s also about him
supporting history. It’s enlightening
people and I really appreciate that,”
he said.
James also thanked Franchot for
his visit.
“The comptroller has always
been a great supporter of our community, been a great friend to the community, so we’re really excited about
him being here,” he said. “We love
the support from the state and all of
our key stakeholders and partners.”
Earlier in the day, Franchot had
visited the St. Ann’s Center for Chil-
dren, Youth and Families, which
works to help mothers, children and
families out of poverty and homelessness. The center was awarded
$750,000 in FY2010 for design, construction and renovations.
After Bladensburg, he went to
the Forest Heights Municipal Building. BPW awarded the town
$200,000 in FY2009, which the town
matched to repair, renovate and reconstruct the town hall.
His final stop was the Greenbelt
City Council meeting, where he gave
a presentation on the 2016 tax filing
season in the state, his efforts in the
legislature to fight tax fraud and identity theft, and the economic outlook
for Maryland.
“Maryland has strong economic
bones and we’re eventually going to
get back to the prosperity and economic growth that we were accustomed to. So we’re showing progress
but we’re not out of the woods,”
Franchot said.
The comptroller also said his office has seen an exponential increase
in the number of suspicious, fraudulent tax returns. The number has
grown from 367, valued at about
$600,000 total, 10 years ago when he
took office to almost 20,000 last year,
valued at $20 million. He estimated
this year the number would be 30,000
returns.
To help fight the problem, Franchot said he introduced a bill in the
General Assembly that would give
his office subpoena power (to get
documents to prove wrongdoing) and
injunctive relief (to shut fraudulent
preparers down) for income taxes as
it has for alcohol, tobacco and petroleum taxes.
Even after assurances from
members of both chambers, as well
as positive testimony from groups involved with the issue, Franchot said
the bill did not pass this session.
“I was told through the back
channels I was being sent a message
by the leadership that I was too collegial with Gov. (Larry) Hogan,” he
said. “Petty politics does not surprise
me, but it did surprise me in this in-
stance because they’re trying to send
a message to me that doesn’t hurt me.
I’m very, very well-supported around
the state, but it hurt taxpayers.”
The bill, the Taxpayer Protection
Act, is shown on the General Assembly website as having passed the third
reading vote in both the House and
Senate, but is not listed as enrolled.
Council members thanked Franchot for taking the time to come to the
meeting.
“You’re very visible and we appreciate the fact that you’ve come to a
municipality. We appreciate that attentiveness,” Jordan said.
Franchot said the visits to
Bladensburg and Greenbelt, as well
as his others throughout the county,
offered an opportunity to hear from
the local leaders about how the state
can help them achieve their goals.
“It’s also a chance for some of
the local officials to sort of buttonhole
me and say ‘we need help on this,’”
he said. “It’s a chance for me to say
how much the state of Maryland respects Prince George’s County.”

Redskins sign Norman Riverdale Baptist, Bowie baseball win
to five-year $75M deal
By Daniel Kucin Jr.
Sports Editor
By Sean Farrell
@Sean_PGSSports
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The
Washington Redskins made a huge
splash in free agency and solidified
their secondary by adding All-Pro
cornerback Josh Norman, formerly
of the Carolina Panthers.
Norman’s deal is for $75 million
over five years, with $36.5 million
guaranteed plus a $15 million signing
bonus. But for Washington, this move
will likely require additional moves
to provide them salary cap relief.
CSN Mid-Atlantic’s Rich Tandler feels those moves will be on the
offensive side of the ball.
“I think the deal increases the
likelihood the Redskins will draft a
wide receiver early,” Tandler said.
“They had the cap room to be able to
re-sign one or both of Pierre Garcon
and DeSean Jackson. Now they may
have to choose to let both of them go.
“By making this deal, the Redskins are gambling that they will be
able to get Kirk Cousins under contract this year or at least prior to the
start of 2017. If they need to franchise
tag him again it will cost $24 million.
With Norman set to carry a $20 million cap hit, that would mean that two
players would be taking up 26 percent of a cap that should be around
$165 million.”
These cap issues are important
because Washington has looming
roster concerns after this upcoming
season. Locking up tight end Jordan
Reed long term is critical, as well as
solidifying their pass rush with Junior
Galette and Chris Baker, who are key
signings that need to be made.
Although Washington knew
moves needed to be made before the
Norman signing, the moves most cer-
tainly have to be addressed quickly.
However, Norman adds so much to
the defense that the "cap casualties"
that come with him may be tolerable.
Norman was once benched in
Carolina for being “too soft.” That lit
a fire under Norman that turned him
into a vital cog in the Panthers’ defensive scheme. Last season he defended
18 passes and forced six turnovers (4
INTs, 2 forced fumbles) and earned
the label of a “shutdown” corner.
Still, some analysts feel Norman was
a “product of his system” as he
played an astounding 81.6 percent of
snaps in zone. For Washington, that is
viewed as a huge positive since their
defensive scheme doesn’t contain
much man-to-man defense.
Norman also gets to test himself
against New York Giants All-Pro
wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. in
highly anticipated matchups in Week
3 and Week 17. After last season’s
matchup where the two literally traded blows on the field, the two games
are definitely worth circling on the
calendar. The Panthers will also face
Washington in Week 15, so Norman
will have his chance to prove his
worth to his former team.
“He's a good player, not great.
Only four picks this year and seven
for his career. Great in that scheme,”
one NFL defensive backs coach said.
“I like his competitiveness and toughness, but his great picks are one inch
from disaster.”
The risk for Washington is worth
the reward considering the secondary
gave up 258 passing yards a game last
season. Norman gives the Redskins
that defensive piece that will make
teams think twice before testing his
side of the field, and that should already make them better without even
playing a snap.
WASHIGNTON D.C. – D.C.
United blanked the New England
Revolution 3-0 on April 22. Lamar
Neagle of D.C. United scored the
first tally of the match on a penalty
kick, while teammate Luciano
Acosta scored his first MLS career
goal to go up 2-0. After accounting
for an assist on the previous score,
Alvaro Saborio notched the final
goal of the match to finish the threegame home stand with a win. D.C.
United sits at 2-2-3 with nine points,
good for fifth in the Eastern Conference. Up next for D.C. United is a
April 30 matchup with the Chicago
Fire.
Riverdale Baptist’s baseball
team defeated St. Anselm's Abby

hit, two runs scored and a RBI.
Riverdale junior Justin Oakley collected two hits, one RBI and scored
a run as well. Riverdale will face

Connor Devlin notched the victory
with one strikeout. Bowie senior Jovan Kellough had an impressive
performance after he tallied two
hits, two runs and two RBI. Another
player who shined was senior A.J.
Barnes, who had two hits, scored
one run and drove in one RBI as
well. Bowie will take on Eleanor

D.C.’s Wade overmatched in title fight
By Ron Harris
@DCRonski
INGLEWOOD, Calif. –
Washington D.C.’s Dominic Wade
was in deep water as soon as he entered the ring and listened to
Michael Buffer shout, “let’s get
ready to rumble!”
Wade was floored in the first
round by champion Gennady
Golovkin, and later finally
knocked out in the second round at
2:37 with a picture-perfect right
hand. Golovkin, known as “Triple
G,” seemed to toy with Wade and,
at one point in round two, knocked
him down with a blow to Wade’s
left arm.
For a fighter with less than 20
fights, Wade (18-1) received a very
good pay day and faced a fighter
with the reputation as the pound-
for-pound best fighter in the world.
Golovkin (35-0) made Wade his
22nd consecutive knock out.
Other than Madison Square
Garden and The Barclays Center,
Washington D.C. has been the goto city on the east coast for title
fights. On April 30, the DC Armory will host its second world title fight in one month’s time.
Floyd Mayweather’s promotion company believes in D.C.
“D.C. is not a good city; it’s a
great city with a lot of talent and
some very good trainers,” Mayweather said.
This will be a test for D.C. and
its fans. The two title fights are between Badou Jack and Lucian Bute
in the super middleweight division, and James DeGale and Rogelio Medina, also in the 168-pound
division. All four are excellent
fighters, but do not have the name
recognition of an Adrien Broner,
the headliner on April 1, who sold
out the DC Armory. That night featured several well-known local
fighters.
The card on April 30 has no
well-known local fighters.
“I think the card on the 30th
will be a test for D.C. in a way,”
D.C. Boxing Hall of Fame member
Gary Williams said. “Unlike the
rest of the cards in the area, there is
no prominent local boxer on this
card. It is wonderful that we have
two world title fights on this card,
but are the D.C. fans knowledgeable to know who they are so they
will come out? If so, that will be a
very important hurdle to cross
over.”
The card will be shown on
Showtime Championship Boxing.

Bowie takes series with Harrisburg, Mancini promoted
By Shawn McFarland
Managing Editor
BOWIE –The Bowie Baysox
lost 6-3 to the Harrisburg Senators on
Sunday, but still managed to win the
series after taking the first three
games of the four-game set.
The Baysox also lost slugger
Trey Mancini, although for a good
reason, as the first baseman was promoted to Triple-A Norfolk following
the game.
“It is a very good feeling,”
Mancini said after learning the news.
“It is a little bittersweet in a way because it has been such an incredible
experience here in Bowie. But I am
very excited to move up and move on
to the next step.”
Mancini, the league's best hitter
last year, has kept on raking in 2016.
Coming into Sunday the powerful
right-hander was leading the Eastern
League in home runs (7), slugging
percentage (.759), runs (18), total
bases (44) and extra base hits (10). He
was also second in hits (18), third in
RBI (14) and fourth in on-base percentage (.443).
“When I have done well, it has
been seeing the ball and being relaxed up there,” said Mancini, who
was ironically 0-for-5 in his last game
with Bowie. “Today, my first three atbats, I was all out of whack. I had
kind of known before the game today
that (getting promoted) was going to
happen, so I don’t know if that played
a part, but I just let it go and made solid contact my last two at-bats.”
Bowie Manager Gary Kendall
brought Mancini into his office following the game and thanked him for
everything he had done for the club
over the last year and three weeks,
which included the franchise’s firstever Eastern League championship in
2015.
“It was nice to get to tell him
that,” Kendall said. “You always like
to promote and give good news in
this game. He is a guy who has certainly deserved every good thing that
has happened to him.
“He was a big part of our club
last year and was huge this year, but
that is what this game is all about and

Bowie Baysox catcher Chance Sisco tags Harrisburgʼs Spencer Kieboom out at the plate to end the first inning on Sunday. The Baysox fell 6-3, but took
the series after winning the first three games of the four-game set. After the game, slugger Trey Mancini was promoted to Triple-A Norfolk.
I am happy for him.”
Mancini was invited to spring
training with the Orioles this year and
said he learned a lot from the experience.
“It was awesome,” Mancini said.
“Being around the major league guys
was a really neat experience. They
were all so welcoming. And the way
they go about their business, from the
meetings they have as a team, to
thinking about every situation on
every play and knowing where they
need to be, it is pretty incredible to
watch. So being around them, you
know what to expect in preparing to
be successful in the majors.”
As for the Baysox, Sunday’s loss
was just their second in the last nine
games. After starting the season 1-7,
Bowie rebounded and has gotten to 89 as of Sunday night and is three
games behind Akron in the Eastern
League West Division.
It was not a great day for starting
pitcher Jason Garcia, as he allowed
six runs on eight hits in four-plus innings of work. He also walked four
batters, while the rest of the staff
walked six more. Kendall said it is
something that cannot continue to
happen.
“I was disappointed in the
walks,” he said. “It’s one thing if the
team goes out there and hits the ball
and beats you. But we have to throw
the ball over the plate. That was not
Double-A quality stuff and you don’t
like to see it happen, especially in a
game where we were maybe a hit
away from getting back into it.”
The good news for Bowie is the
fact that the offense continues to hit.
Although the Baysox scored only
three runs – their second lowest output in the last 10 games – they did
record 12 hits. Chris O’Brien provided some pop in the second with a solo
home run. The other two runs came in
the ninth off the bats of Mike Yastrzemski and Corban Joseph.
Yastrzemski has been on fire
lately and was named the Eastern
League Player of the Week because
of it. The right fielder hit in all seven
games last week and had six multi-hit
games. For the week he hit .438 (14for-32) with three doubles, three
homers, seven runs scored and nine
RBI.
As of Monday, Bowie was leading the league in batting average
(.264), on-base percentage (.350),
and runs (90), and was second in hits
(151), total bases (235) and slugging
(.412).
“Yaz has been on fire, Joseph
too,” Kendall said. “We will get
(Quincy) Latimore going, but we are
getting a lot out of (Adrian) Marin
and guys at the bottom of the order.
Drew Dosch is swinging a hot bat, so
I really like us one through nine.
“We have 12 position players
here. All of them are capable of being
regulars and they are all patient when
they don’t get their time.”
The Baysox will host Richmond
for a three-game series before heading out to Harrisburg on April 29.

Amanda Espina named 2016 PGC Teacher of the Year
@candacerojo
GREENBELT – Amanda Espina dreamed of being a teacher
from the time she was in middle
school, and now, she has been
awarded in the career of her dreams.
Amid much pomp and circumstance on April 21, Espina was
named Prince George’s County
2016 Teacher of the Year from a
group of 13 nominees and four finalists.
“I am completely overwhelmed, honestly, but extremely
proud,” Espina said. “I love the
county that I work for, I love the students that I serve and especially my
school. We’ve worked so hard to develop a really rich and rigorous program at Benjamin Foulois.”
Espina is a visual arts teacher at
Benjamin D. Foulois Creative and
Performing Arts Academy. She is a
10-year veteran of Prince George’s
Amanda Espina, center, is surrounded by fellow teachers who have previously been named county teacher of the
year. Espina, a teacher at Benjamin D. Foulois Creative and Performing Arts Academy, was named the 2016
Prince Georgeʼs County Teacher of the Year. She was one of 13 nominees and four finalists.
County Public Schools (PGCPS)
and has been at the school since
2009.
She works with the University
of Maryland College Park as a mentor to new teachers, is the PGCPS
Visual Arts Department Art Show
Coordinator, and leads the Visual
Arts Professional Educators Induction Program, Fine Arts Summer Institute, as well as numerous trainings on elementary art instruction,
art exhibit preparation, arts integration, and curriculum development.
Her students’ work has been
featured at both local and state levels and has been recognized for excellence in the Youth Art Month
Countywide Exhibit. Last year, the
Prince George’s County Board of
Education named one of her students “Best Student Artist.” Espina
is also partnering with Continental
Studies, a nonprofit group whose
arts and humanities division will
provide a local gallery experience
for students and exhibition of their
work.
“Not only do I enjoy art, but I
enjoy students and I enjoy the
school setting and the school and
education experience in general. So
I started to think about ‘what could I
do that could wrap or tie all of this
together?’ So I became a double major at the University of Maryland

Prince George’s County rewards stormwater
stewardship grant recipients for future projects
By Emily Blackner
@emilyblackner
BELTSVILLE – Even the
weather seemed to be celebrating
the efforts of county groups to reduce stormwater runoff.
April 20 was a beautiful spring
day at Behnke’s Nursey in
Beltsville where the county department of the environment held a ceremony honoring groups and municipalities that had been awarded part
of the $2.4 million in stormwater
stewardship grants for the first two
years of the program.
“We’ve dedicated a large part
of our stormwater program to
putting money in the hands of those
closest to the environment,” Adam
Ortiz, director of the department of
the environment, said.
Grants were awarded to 28
nonprofits, businesses, municipal
governments, educational institutions, faith-based organizations and
community groups to help them
complete projects like rain barrel
installation, conversion to permeable pavements, tree canopy pro-
jects, trash and litter removal and
education and outreach. Awards
ranged from $5,000 to $200,000
depending on the project.
The funds come from a partnership between the department of
the environment and the Chesapeake Bay Trust (CBT), a nonprofit
group dedicated to improving the
Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries
through grants. It gets much of its
funding from the purchase of “bay
plates” license plates state-wide.
Jana Davis, CBT executive director, said the grant money in this
program benefits more than just the
environment. Some funds pay for
jobs in the environmental field,
while 30 percent of the grant money
was given to for-profit businesses,
like contractors, to perform work.
“These dollars are doing incredible things for our community
well beyond the environment,” she
said.
Davis said the grantees are positioned to have the most impact on
the environment because they are

OPINION
Visions: Teen sexting should be a crime
By Anita Naves
Special to The Sentinel
Being the parent of a teenager,
who literally shares a lot of her experiences at school with me, I was
absolutely shocked when I had
learned from my 14-year-old
daughter that students at her
school have conjured up a particular time of year to expose, via social media, “nude” photos of students. These pictures are mainly of
teen girls who have taken nude or
partially clothed “selfies” to send
to other students, under the pretense they were once photos sent to
teen boys whom they had dated in
the past.
As a parent, educator and
“multi-award” winning youth advocate, I find this very disturbing,
considering adults who view or
who are caught with child pornography in their possession are la-
beled sex offenders and are criminally punished. In no way, am I defending “perverts” who prey on
children! What I am saying is that
teens need not “stir the pot,” as in
posting nude selfies of themselves.
I believe some are purposely posting pictures of themselves for the
fun of wanting to show off their
“budding” bodies.
Whatever the case, we as sensible adults, the court system, educators, and mainly parents need to
address this growing trend. If we
are going to have a healthy discussion on the solution to sex trafficking, we certainly need to address
this shocking matter in our public
schools everywhere, starting as
early as middle school.
Parents, if you can hear me
through the words of this article,
please take a moment and go
through your children’s phones
from just about every angle that
you can. Catch them off guard!
And insist they show you what’s
on their social media accounts. I
did this one day with my teen and
was surprised she had posted a
negative comment about me – the
day I took her phone.
Luckily for her the comment
was very mild. Nevertheless, I didn’t like it. And, yes, surely her
phone was taken away from her for
several weeks. But when I accidently hit a button and it pulled up
nude pictures someone had sent to
her, I was alarmed. I even saw pictures of kids that had visited my
home before.
Guess what I did? I called the
school and addressed what I had
seen with the guidance counselor
of that child. The guidance counselor stated she was already aware
of the matter, because several other parents did what I had done.

What’s going on in Greenbelt - the city in brief
By Emily Blackner
@emilyblackner
A Golden Month
The council issued a proclamation naming May “Older
Americans Month” in the city.
Events will include Rita’s Italian
Ice Day, a free produce giveaway
and potentially coordination with
the Old Greenbelt Theatre and the
Golden Age Club to bring the
city’s various groups for older
Americans together to celebrate.
Getting on the Right Trail
The council voted to amend
the timetable for the Greenbelt
Station South Core development.
Initially, the plan had called for
the Stream Valley Trail, which
would connect the community
with Cherrywood Lane, to be
completed by the issuance of the
250th building permit. But Woodlawn Development Group
(WDG) asked for an extension
due to difficulties dealing with
the state, which owns the land the
trail would be built on.
“We’re dealing with entities
that are out of our control. If we
get the permit sooner, we’ll build
it sooner. That’s the max. We just
need to build ourselves a little bit
of wiggle room to ensure we
don’t stop the progress,” said
Norman Rivera, a representative
of WDG, said.
WDG asked for the deadline
to be moved to the 352nd permit,
but the council agreed with city
staff to require it by the 300th
permit. WDG is currently on the
213th permit.
The revision also requires
WDG to place signs on the trail
indicating the expected date of
completion, and for the trail to be
fully bonded by the 250th permit.
(Every Step You Take)
They’ll Be Watching You
Residents of the Greenbelt
Station development expressed
their concerns about a rash of
break-ins in their community.
They requested additional police
patrols and city-installed cameras
placed in the area to complement
those the residents have put up
themselves.
Council Member Edward
V.J. Putens said he had put an
agenda item forward for future
discussion to devise a city-wide
plan for the use of surveillance
cameras.
Climate Control Change
The Council is proposing offering a contract to Shapiro and
Duncan Inc. for work to be done
on the community center HVAC
system. The $355,264 price tag
includes replacing the fan coil
units, modifying one of the AC
units in the gym and installing a
new dehumidification coil in an
air handler to prevent the growth
of mold.
The project initially included
work on the adult day care portion
of the building, to allow it to
pump heat and cold separately
from the rest of the building, but
Acting Director of Public Works
James Sterling said that the proposed costs for that part of the
work were too high. That upgrade
has been postponed to a later date.

Amanda Espina named 2016 PGC Teacher of the Year
From “Teacher” page E-1
with studio art and teacher education and it’s kind of a dream come
true to do what you love for a living,” she said.
Each school in the PGCPS system had the opportunity to nominate
teachers for consideration. Espina
was nominated by her peers not
only for her professional skills, but
for her devotion to her work, love of
children, and support of colleagues,
according to PGCPS. Espina is a
leader at her school, serving on a
number of committees, including
co-chairing the Character Education
Committee.
One of those who nominated
Espina was Matthew McCrea, the
principal of Benjamin D. Foulois.
He said he is constantly amazed by
the way she encourages her students
and what she is able to get them to
accomplish.
“What doesn’t make her stand
out? She’s an exemplary educator
inside the classroom. She’s an exemplary educator outside the classroom,” he said. “This is my second
year at Foulois and I remember
walking into her classroom and
thinking ‘I am just the luckiest principal in the county to have teachers
like Amanda all around me.’”
McCrea said that, looking at
Espina’s students’ work, you would
never know middle and elementary
school students created it.
“I don’t know how she does it. I
wish I could just distill what she
does into a bottle and have everyone
drink it. It would solve all of our education problems,” he said.
Kevin Maxwell, the chief executive officer of PGCPS, said all of
the teachers nominated for the
teacher of the year award are doing
great things in the county and are
examples of great teachers.
“I think this is just a great example of a teacher and when you listen to her children, when you listen
to the parents of the children in her
room, you really see the impact that
great teachers make on children and
that’s what we want in every single
classroom in Prince George’s County – great teachers doing great
things for our kids. And, absolutely,
a vast majority of our teachers are
excellent and could have been
here,” Maxwell said.
Other educators nominated for
the teacher of the year included two
from Hyattsville Elementary, Tracy
Clark-Peele and Amy Monjes; two
from Imagine Foundations at Morningside Public Charter, Jennifer
McGill Thompson and Tamyra
Wesley; Cullen Waller, also from
Benjamin Foulois; Samuel Ogle
Middle’s Erin Morrison; Oxon Hill
High’s Emory Andrews; Kwabena
Asomani from Thurgood Marshall
Middle; Mary Rowley from Ridgecrest Elementary; Eleanor Roosevelt’s Tetsuo Ogawa; Brandie
Cole from Judith P. Hoyer Montessori; and Gywnn Park Middle’s
Shercora Parker.
Maxwell said he believes Espina will be a great candidate for the
statewide teacher of the year competition, which Laura Shelton, also
a teacher at Benjamin Foulois, competed in, in 2014.
Shelton said Espina is in for a
whirlwind but affirming year. Espina is in for hearing a lot of “thank
yous” and many opportunities to advocate for her school and her school
system, Shelton said.
“It is a once in a lifetime opportunity,” she said. “Just enjoy
every moment of it. I’m happy for
her. This is just a wonderful opportunity. I’m excited for her and it
couldn’t have happened to a better
person.”
As the teacher of the year, Espina will meet monthly with the
state superintendent of schools, will
be invited to multiple events, and
becomes part of a cohort of past
Prince George’s County winners.
Espina said she is incredibly
excited to start her journey as the
county’s teacher of the year, but she
will take it one step at a time.
“Honestly tomorrow, I’ll be
back in the classroom teaching
where I belong,” she said.
She will go on to the state
teacher of the year competition
with representatives from all 24
counties in Maryland. The state
teacher of the year title will be announced in the fall and the winner
will go on to the national arena.
County rewards stormwater stewardship grant recipients

closer to it.
“When we talk about treating
an acre of impervious surface, or reducing nutrients, it’s you guys doing it. Our job is to take the vision
of these folks up here and translate
that into something you guys can do
and use. And I can’t tell you how
thrilled the Trust is to be part of
this,” she said.
Shawn Garvin, regional administrator for Region 3 at the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency,
agreed that the people at the local
level make the most difference.
“When you talk about where
the differences are made, it’s at the
local level. You all are putting together these amazing, innovative
projects that really are making a
difference,” he said.
Maryland Secretary of the Environment Ben Grumbles said the
state is leading the nation in terms
of stormwater thanks to its Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System
permitting system. The goal is to
treat or reduce 20 percent of the impervious surface area statewide.
Prince George’s County has
pledged to replacing 6,000 acres of
impervious surface by 2018, with
the final goal being 15,000 acres in
10 years.
“Prince George’s County is a
leader in so many respects, from
helping to lead the green infrastructure revolution to public-private
partnerships and innovative financing and bringing in new partners,”
he said.
County Councilwoman Mary
Lehman echoed those remarks, noting the county ranks first in the state
in recycling. She thanked all of the
grantees for their work to improve
the water quality county-wide.
“I just want to applaud all of
you for working so hard to improve
water quality in our county. Water
is really our greatest resource. It’s
really the lifeblood of this state,”
she said.
Behnke Nurseries, where the
event was held, is also a leader on
environmental issues, officials said.
It was awarded grant money in order to “create a walkable, living
classroom where we showcase
some of the best practices,” Ortiz
said.
“It’s not just a nursery but it’s
really a transformational business.
They show that this work can be
done,” he said.
Alfred Millard, president of
Behnke, said the goal was to create
a place where residents of all ages
could learn about bay-friendly gardening practices.
“What you see around us is the
evolution of what we’re trying to
do, one of our mission statements.
This is a group of environmentalists
here at the nursery. We want this to
be an educational area for the community, especially for young people,” he said.
Other grant recipients include
the Town of Forest Heights, EcoCity Farms, the Alice Ferguson Foundation, Prince George’s Green, Interfaith Partners of the Chesapeake,
the University of Maryland, the
League of Conservation Voters and
the Anacostia Riverkeeper (ARK).
Trey Sherard, outreach coordinator with the ARK, said his organization received grant money both
years, which it used to forge partner-

ships with churches in the county.
“We have been doing faithbased outreach. In this round of
grants, we are actually implementing a cistern at one of the churches
that we met through Interfaith Partners of the Chesapeake in the first
round,” he said.
Partnerships like that allow the
grants to have even greater impact,
Ortiz said.
“Our environmental challenges
are so great here in Prince George’s
and in Maryland. The government
really has a lot of power and influence, but certainly not enough to
solve the problem by ourselves. The
only way we’re going to be successful is if we engage our non-profit
sector, our businesses, churches,
other governments and other levels
of government and our residents to
help come together,” he said.

County firefighter remembered
at memorial in Hollywood, Md.
By Jim David
Special to The Sentinel
HOLLYWOOD, Md. – On a
bright and sunny Wednesday afternoon, with the birds chirping and
bagpipes playing, roughly 2,000
firefighters from as far away as New
Jersey, Pennsylvania and North Carolina, along with family members,
friends, co-workers, and state and
county officials from Prince
George’s County, came to a small
church in Hollywood to say farewell
to a county paramedic who was
killed in the line of duty as he was attempting to provide help to a Temple
Hills resident.
On April 15, firefighter/paramedic John Ulmschneider, a 13-year
veteran of the Prince George’s
County Fire Department, along with
volunteer firefighter Kevin Swain of
the Morningside Volunteer Fire Department, were only a few feet into a
house when the man they were
checking on opened fire, ultimately
killing Ulmschneider and wounding
Swain.
“He was a great firefighter and
paramedic,” Prince George’s County Fire Capt. Danon Ushinski said.
“I am still shocked about the way he
died.
“It is just hard. Only a few days
ago, my crew and I had to take out a
door to check on the welfare of a
person. We will get through this, but
it is going to take time.”
Ulmschneider leaves behind a
wife and a 2-year-old daughter.
Ulmschneider’s brother-in law said
the family would like to thank the
county fire department for all the
support it has given the family. The
department has been there from the
start and has never left.
County Executive Rushern
Baker III attended the memorial and
said a few words.

knows how, but a great firefighter

ple he served. His commitment to
service made him special and
beloved.”
Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan
also spoke at the funeral and said
Ulmschneider lived and died as a
hero who will never be forgotten.
Hogan and U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer
(D-MD) each presented his family
with flags flown over the U.S. and
state capitols. Prince George’s County Fire Chief Marc Bashoor also presented the family with the flag that
was flying over the department’s
headquarters the day Ulmschneider
was killed, as well as the Medal of
Valor, and a meritorious service
award. Bashoor also informed the
family that Ulmschneider will be
promoted to the rank of lieutenant.
Ulmschneider’s casket was
placed on the back of one of his station’s fire engines for his final ride to
a cemetery a few miles away.
County fire department
spokesperson Mark Brady said Ulmschneider was working overtime at
the Forestville Volunteer Fire Department on county paramedic ambulance 823 at the time of the incident. He is normally assigned to Landover Hills Fire Station 830.
The homeowner who shot the
firefighters was questioned by police. During his interview he told police he believed his house was being
broken into and fired in self defense.
Police said they have no evidence refuting the story and released him.
However, Prince George's County

said the investigation is still ongoing.

TOWN OF BLADENSBURG
NOTICE OF A PROPOSED REAL
PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
The Mayor and Council of the Town of Bladensburg propose to
increase real property taxes.
1. For the tax year beginning July 1, 2016, the estimated real property assessable base will increase by 5.3%, from
$398,521,148 to $419,673,565.
2. If the Town of Bladensburg maintains the current
tax rate of $0.74 per $100 of assessment, real property tax revenues will increase by 5.3% resulting in $156,528 of new real
property tax revenues.
3. In order to fully offset the effect of increasing assessments, the real property tax rate should be reduced to
$0.7027 per $100 of assessment, which is the constant yield tax
rate.
4. The town is considering not reducing its real property tax rate enough to fully offset increasing assessments. The
town proposes to adopt a real property tax rate of $0.74 per
$100 of assessment. This tax rate is 5.3% higher than the constant yield tax rate and will generate $156,528 of additional
property tax revenues.
A public hearing on the proposed real property tax rate
increase will be held at 7:00 p.m. on May 9, 2016 at Bladensburg Town Hall, 4229 Edmonston Road, Bladensburg, Maryland 20710.
The hearing is open to the public, and public testimony
is encouraged.

Samuel Ogle MS students spend
Earth Day on the Patuxent River
@candacerojo
UPPER MARLBORO – Students at Samuel Ogle Middle School
took the message of Earth Day literally and got down and dirty in the
Patuxent River.
On April 22, students from the
middle school traveled to the Patuxent River Park to learn more about
the river, the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, the ecosystem surrounding the
two, and also to plant wild rice in the
mud beds of the river.
Karen Pumphrey, a science
teacher for grades seven and eight at
Samuel Ogle, said the students began
growing their wild rice plants in early March in their classrooms, while
they learned the importance of the
rice to the ecosystem. Then, on Earth
Day, they had the opportunity to
plant them in the riverbed.
“We’re a green school and we
would love to think of all our students as caretakers of the planet. So,
I’m thrilled that, being here on Earth
Day, they have allowed us to board
the boats and plant the rice that we
have grown,” she said.
While at the park, students went
on a tour of the river where Greg
Kearns, a naturalist with the Patuxent
River Park, showed them osprey
nests and wild turtles, told them
about birds specific to the area, explained the history of the river,
showed them areas where the ancient
sea bed is visible, and talked about
the importance of wild rice to the
area.
Kearns said the rice is full of nutrients, carbohydrates and calories,
which are critical for birds. The rice
doesn’t grow in many places, he said,
so the bay and river are federally protected to ensure the rice continues to
grow.
However it hasn’t been an easy
journey for the wild rice of the Patuxent River. Canadian Geese and invasive species such as Phragmites, a
wild reed plant, had decimated the
rice and nearly 90 percent of the wild

was gone by the year 2000, Kearns
said during the tour.
James Roberson, an instructional specialist for environmental literacy with Prince George’s County Public Schools, said this is why it is so
important to not only plant the rice,
but to teach students about the
ecosystem. The wild rice program is
currently open for all seventh grade
students across the county.
“What we’ve done is we’ve
tried to empower students to be part
of a green solution and in this particular program, they’re restoring habitat along the Patuxent River,” he
said. “It’s easy for us as educators to
go in and tell students about why
Earth Day is important or why helping the environment is important, but
something like this, we think, has
much more meaning because they
are part of the solution.”
For 15 minutes or so, the students trudged through the mud in
borrowed waders, dug holes and
planted the rice. Some quickly became pros at navigating the soft,
sinking soil while others struggled
with getting stuck and fell into the
mud.
Indiayah Jackson, a student,
said she had a great time planting the
grass. She said it was an “interesting”
experience.
“I learned a lot, like, a lot. There
are a lot of birds out here,” she said.
“I fell twice, I got stuck a few times.
It was actually fun. If you stood on
your tippy toes, it was a lot better and
easier, like they said, but if you stood
regular, you’d get stuck.”
Darren Ambe also said he had a
lot of fun. He fell into the mud a few
times and ended up with mud and water in his waders. He said he enjoyed
learning about the ecosystem and
how all the plants and animal interact.
“I’m just really proud to be here.
I’m happy I had this opportunity to
come here,” he said.
Andrew Muray and Anjolaoluwa Oludayo agreed and said it
was a great learning experience. Muray said he really hope the rice grows.
“Today’s Earth Day and I feel
like I’m doing something good for
the Earth on Earth Day, which I don’t
normally get to do,” Oludayo said. “It
was just a fun experience and I really
liked experiencing all of this and getting into the environment.”

Young filmmakers watch their
work on the silver screen
@Candacerojo
SILVER SPRING – The work
of students from elementary, middle
and high schools in Prince George’s
County Public Schools (PGCPS)
made it to the big screen on April 20,
as more than 500 students participated in the 4th Annual PGCPS Film
Festival.
The festival, held at AFI Silver
Theatre and Cultural Center in Silver Spring, was a celebration of student film work. In total, 78 films
were submitted for consideration of
awards and recognition; of those,
three were selected from each category for viewing. Winners were selected by the people’s choice
through a viewing party, online voting and professional judging.
Anita Lambert, coordinating
supervisor for creative arts programs, said this film festival started
four years ago because she saw a
need to showcase the creative talents
of students in another way.
“Some disciplines have been
well established. They have been established since time began, but as we
look to our newer technologies and
the art and science of media and design and creativity, it is just an opportunity to showcase the creative
spirit of our students at another
venue in another way,” she said.
She said it is extremely important to foster a community amongst
students where they can express
themselves and learn from each other. She said she is always glad to see
students supporting each other.
“We had five or six schools that
were here today that did not win
anything, not a third or second place,
and they were celebrating with all of
the other students,” she said. “And I
think that is something our society
needs and it’s a skill set that will carry our students far in regards to what
they choose to do in life.”
John Ceschini, the arts integration officer at PGCPS, said the film
festival is also a great way to give
recognition to the students and
teachers who spent a great deal of
time on their films and to recognize
the talents of students.
“It is very prestigious. These
kids have made small-screen videos
that are now going to be recognized
and are going to be on the big screen.
It’s a fantastic opportunity for
them,” he said.
Ceschini said there is a great
level of excellence in Prince
George’s County and he was “very
impressed with many of the films”
created by the students.
“Keep in mind we have from
the beginning level, like elementary
school, all the way up to high school.
So, it varies on the quality of the
films, but they are all the best that
our students could do with the
knowledge they had and some of
them are really fantastic films,” Ceschini said.
Categories ranged from public
service announcements to an undera-minute challenge and from documentaries to silent films. Winners at
the film festival included Laurel
High School, Central High School,
Bowie High School, Oxon Hill High
School, Hyattsville Middle School,
Kettering Middle School and James
H. Harrison Elementary School.
Abigail Ortaleza and Anthony
Newhouse are both 12-year-old students at James H. Harrison Elementary School. The two won multiple
awards for their films in the 48-Hour
Challenge and the feature category,
specifically for their film “Choices.”
They started filming in February after using January to plan. The
entire project took them three weeks
to put together.
“It felt very surprising,” Ortaleza said.
“We didn’t know we were going to win,” Newhouse added.
Ariana Dabner, a seventh grader at Kettering Middle School, was
also surprised she won. She said her
group put a lot of work into their
silent film “The Study Group,”
which was about a murderous doll.
Dabner directed the film and
said she did a lot to make sure the
story, created by her friends, was believable and scary. She said it meant
a lot to see her work up on the big
screen and to watch people enjoy
their hard work.
“I felt accomplished. I feel like
I actually did something I really love
to do and I put all my time to work
into it. I think the cast and everybody
who’s in the video did so much work
and tried so hard and it really made
me happy that everyone got to see
it,” she said.
“The Study Group” won a
grand award where it beat out films
created by other middle school and
high school students.
However, films created by high
school students stole the show as
Oxon Hill High took home three
grand prize awards for their PSA titled “Don’t Press Send,” and Dr.
Henry A. Wise, Jr., Central, Bowie
and Laurel high schools each took
home grand prize awards.
Steffanie Caison and Myles
Loftin created “Don’t Press Send”
and are both seniors at Oxon Hill.
Caison created the initial idea for the
film, which is a PSA warning girls of
the dangers of nude selfies, which
are technically child pornography if
those pictured are under 18.
“It’s not just about emotions, it
is about the law,” Caison said. “That
why at the end we spoke with the
corporal because it is illegal as a
child to distribute child pornographic materials.”
With three trophies in hand,
Loftin said he was nervous to show
the film to his peers at the film festival, but said he was glad to see how
people interpreted his work.
“To have the support of everyone and to notice that what you
made was good and to actually win
and be commended for something
you put a lot of work into, it just
feels wonderful,” Caison said.

House of Delegates recognizes positive
rap platform where local youth shine
By Andrea Blackstone
@andreablackston
PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY - Displaying high school pride
through writing positive rap verses,
and performing clean lyrics while using local high school locations as a
backdrop, became fashionable for
youth in Prince George’s County.
Andrew Messam, aka “DrewStar The Entertainer,” the 25-yearold founder of the High School
Cypher (HSC) Project, and some of
his musical relatives are to thank for
that.
The Messam family operates a
Silver Spring-based music video
production company called Kno-Effort Productions and an independent
record label called Black Liberty
Records (BLR). On April 5, the
Maryland House of Delegates acknowledged The DMV Prince
George’s County High School
Cypher by presenting an official
House resolution, in recognition of
publishing music that upholds the
value of education and showcases
the talent of positive young rap
artists across Prince George's County.
Last February, rap music void of
profanity gained the attention of
Prince George’s County Del. Angela
Angel, who represents District 25 in
the Maryland House of Delegates.
After discovering HSC through social media and learning the project
engages youth in video and music
production, Angel wanted the unique
project to receive recognition
through a House resolution.
“Videos that are unfortunate
showcase to our youth, so I watched
their two (HSC) videos with kids that
were rapping. They weren’t cursing.
They were talking about good things
in school. And so I reached out and
wanted to honor and recognize the
work that they are doing, and encourage them to keep pushing,” Angel
said.
In 2013, Messam was inspired
to implement a platform for youth
artists to be seen and heard, while
getting more exposure for Kno-Effort Productions. His brother, Ramone Messam, previously established the successful cypher formula
to promote upcoming local talent
through the video production company. Kno-Effort Productions was cofounded by brothers Ramone and
Jerome Messam.
Approximately 35 students attending more than 13 schools located
in Montgomery County and Prince
George’s County – such as Surrattsville High School, Suitland High
School, Oxon Hill High School,
Roosevelt High School, Grace
Brethren Christian School, Laurel
High School, Charles H. Flowers
High School, Riverdale Baptist
School and others – have had opportunities to showcase their rap talent
in attention-grabbing Montgomery
and Prince George’s County High
School Cypher videos that are viewable on YouTube.
“One of the reasons why we recognize people on the (House) floor is
to also extend the fact that we are doing great things here in Prince
George’s County. You may hear
about not great things happening in
our schools – the fights or what our
scores aren’t – but we have some really great things happening. So I want
to make sure we are saying that loud
and clear, and for the whole state to
acknowledge that,” Angel said.
Angel said a partnership to
highlight the HSC program, and annually recognize student participants, is in development. She also
mentioned the value of budding rap
artists learning collaboration and
technical skills that are utilized.
“One of the things I know the
leaders of the cypher want to do is to
increase it more, so some youth can
help with the video production, with
the videography, with the editing,
and to make it something that grows,
that they’re able to participate in at a
greater level,” Angel said.
Messam said he wanted to create leaders and compensate for the
budgets cuts in school art programs,
while offering opportunities for
youth to participate in the HSC.
“We are going to take the High
School Cypher music video platform
nationwide and eventually worldwide,” Messan said.
He aspires to encourage youth
to attend school and take academic
responsibility for improving their
grades, while encouraging creative
expression of budding rap artists,
writers, singers, editors, actors, poets, engineers and directors.
Evan Harrod, 17, is one of many
youth who has received exposure
through the HSC. Harrod attends
Riverdale Baptist and said he often
incorporates Christian values in the
original rap lyrics he pens. He enjoys
sharing his lyrical expressions
through performing and said the
HSC gives youth a positive focal
point. He was permitted to participate in Prince George’s County High
School Cypher 2 after submitting
song samples with clean lyrics. His
segment was recorded in the cafeteria of his school.
“A lot of positivity came out of
it because (the video) was not only
on WorldStar(HipHop) and
YouTube, and received a lot of
views, it was also featured on the radio on (WPGC) 95.5 with Tony
Redz,” Harrod said. “Now, I actually
have a chance to be heard.”
Alphonso Messam, the father
and chief executive officer of familyowned Black Liberty Records, said
that parents, teens and the general
public appreciate the HSC platform.
“I observe that it also gives the
teens a positive topic to talk and feel
excited about. Now it seems everyone is eager to get to school to talk
about who and what they saw in the
HSC music videos, and everyone
wants their school to be featured in
the near future,” Alphonso said. “We
have also received more exposure
and people wanting to work with us
to help get the HSC to other schools
in other areas and parts of the country.”

program, which is in its fifth year in
Prince George’s County, continues
to give back to the community that
helped shaped the former NFL linebacker. The program, which started
in Minnesota in 2008 while he was a
member of the Minnesota Vikings,
is an afterschool program focused
on promoting physical activity, instilling the importance of education,
and introducing critical life skills to
a select group of students.
“Looking back, I was fortunate
to have men and women of great
character as mentors to aid me in my
development. Whether it was my
parents, teachers or coaches, they all
played a role in my life,” said
Williams, who played collegiately
at the University of Maryland
(UMD). “While a student at UMD, I
participated in a Big Brother Reading Program that took place at Hyattsville Elementary. My pre-existing relationship led us to inquire
(with) the school about starting an
afterschool program there.”
The weekly Dieu’s Crew program, which also visits Hyattsville
Middle School and Clopper Mill Elementary School in Montgomery
County, teaches children things
such as making healthy life choices
or focusing on future career choices,
followed by physical activity either
outside or in the school’s gym. The
elementary school program is more
presentation-based, while the mid-
dle school students engage in discussion, according to current Dieu’s
Crew intern and University of
Maryland public health major Max
Katz.
“A few weeks ago we did a discussion about alcohol, marijuana
and tobacco, which are all things
covered in Prince George’s County’s health curriculum,” Katz said.
“It’s always either related to what
they’re learning or analogous to
what they’re learning or somewhere
in the middle.
“Everyone in Dieu’s Crew has
been selected or nominated for
some sort of reason, whether it’s because they need educational enrichment or they need more social time
with kids their age for an hour or
two. Some need physical activity
because they may not be able to get
that at home or wherever they live.
Some, their parents want them to be
in an afterschool program that’s
structured, so it’s kind of a mix of
things.”
Remaining relevant to issues
and catering to the needs of each
specific group of students is a critical part of Dieu’s Crew, according to
program coordinator Maria Spriggs.
“They all come from different
backgrounds and different home
structures and all that. So it’s meeting them where they are and addressing their needs, while also being cohesive in delivering one simple plan to all the children,” Spriggs
said.
The students also have the opportunity to go on field trips with all
costs covered by the Madieu
Williams Foundation. This semester
the program has taken students to
the White House, the Ringling Bros.
Circus and on a tour of the University of Maryland campus.
“Some of the field trips the
foundation organizes are very relevant to where we want students to
go. Some of these trips have been to
college campuses, and I think it’s a
very good thing for middle school
students to see what happens on the
campus,” said Philip Tazi, assistant
principal at Hyattsville Middle
School.
Williams and his team are also
looking into possibly expanding and
introducing a high school program
as well. According to Williams,
many of the students in the middle
school program also took part in
Dieu’s Crew while they were in elementary school.
“I’ve been in Dieu’s Crew ever
since I was in elementary school, so
that’s like four or five years,” said
Emperess Johnson, an eighth grader
at Hyattsville Middle School.
Other students found value in
the program’s instruction.
“Dieu’s Crew helps you make
life choices. You can ask them about
it and they’ll give you information
about life skills,” said Marquese
Smith, a seventh grader at Hyattsville Middle. “Dieu’s Crew can
inspire you and make you more passionate about your career choices.”
Farrel Taylor, a seventh grader
at Hyattsville Middle, also touched
on the importance of choices.
“What I like about Dieu’s Crew
is they tell you about stuff you’re not
supposed to do. Like not to smoke or
drink alcohol or stuff like that,” he
said.
Williams said he was pleased to
be able to give back to the students
of this county in particular.
“Prince George’s County is a
special place for not only myself, but
to my family,” Williams said. “It
means a lot to give back to the county and community that has given me
so much.”

CITY OF LAUREL NOTICE
OF A PROPOSED
REAL PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
The Mayor and City Council of the City of Laurel in Prince George's
County proposes to increase real property taxes.
1. For the tax year beginning July 1, 2016, the estimated real property
assessable base will increase by 1.6% from $2,581,868,314 to
$2,622,280,195.
2. If the City of Laurel maintains the current real property tax rate of
$0.71 per $100 of assessment, real property tax revenues will increase by
1.6% resulting in $286,924 of new real property tax revenues.
3. In order to fully offset the effect of increasing assessments, the real
property tax rate should be reduced to $0.6991, the constant yield tax rate.
4. The City of Laurel is considering not reducing its real property tax
rate enough to fully offset increasing assessments. The City of Laurel proposes to adopt a real property tax rate of $0.71 per $100 of assessment.
This tax rate is 1.6% higher than the constant yield tax rate and will generate $285,829 in additional real property tax revenues.
A public hearing on the proposed real property tax increase will be
held at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, May 9, 2016, at the Laurel Municipal Center,
8103 Sandy Spring Road, Laurel, in the Council Chambers.
The hearing is open to the public, and public testimony is encouraged.
Persons with questions regarding this hearing may call 301-7255300, extension 2236 for further information.

Clerk to the Council

Hyattsville happenings:
Month in Review
@candacerojo
Keeping Up With the Audits
The city’s 2014 audit is completed and in the final draft, according to Hyattsville Treasurer
Ron Brooks. Brooks said he is also
in the process of writing up new
policy on how the city should handle deferred revenues and how to
account for them in the financial
management system.
The Urban Jungle
For the 25th year, the Arbor
Day Foundation named the city of
Hyattsville as a tree city. The city
met the criteria of the honor of
2015 Tree City USA by maintaining a forestry budget of at least $2
per capita, holding an Arbor Day
observance and proclamation and
by having a tree board or department.
All are welcome
On March 22, the city council
approved a resolution concerning
the Syrian refugee crisis, stating
that the city would accept refugees
into the city.
“For the importance of diversity, inclusiveness and human
rights in the city of Hyattsville,
Prince George’s County and the
state of Maryland,” said Council
President Edouard Haba while
reading the resolution.
The resolution, which was
sent off to Gov. Larry Hogan and
County Executive Rushern Baker
III, was a stark difference and opposition to Hogan’s statements in
late 2015, asking that Maryland not
receive any refugees, but was similar to Baker’s statements made during the same period.
A Safe Way to Find Food
A new 24-hour Safeway has
opened in Hyattsville after four
years without the grocer in the city
and months of anticipation.
The new store, which opened
on April 6, offers many amenities
to customers including a loose leaf
tea selection, a Starbucks, a fullservice pharmacy, and specialty
meal services such as an Asian bar
and pizza bar.

PRIVATE RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES
Judge NANCY B. SHUGER served for 18 years as an Associate Judge on the
District Court of Maryland for Baltimore City, handling various civil and criminal
matters. Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) offers a creative, positive alternative tot the cost and uncertainty of litigation for individuals, businesses, organizations and families. As a former judge, she can assist disputing parties to achieve
reasonable results. ADR offers a way for her to help people discover common interests which can allow them to shape their own resolution to their disputes.
As a mediator, she acts as a private neutral. She emphasizes that mediation can be effective wether the parties desire to address differences in an
ongoing relationship, or to reach a mutually agreeable solution to a single
dispute, without trial. She uses mediation, arbitration and settlement conferences successfully for conflict involving personal injury (including auto
torts and premises liability), employment, workplace conflict, child access,
elder law, ethics, collections, contracts and other civil matters.

Terps’ lacrosse increases win streak to 10 with win over Ohio St.
By Craig Lee
@uaingotalicraig
COLLEGE PARK – A total of
five lead changes during Maryland
and Ohio State’s Big Ten lacrosse
matchup could not prevent the Terps
from defeating the Buckeyes.
An offensive spike from both
teams in the first quarter (seven total
goals) made it seem as if the contest
would be tight throughout, but the
Terps, currently ranked No. 3 in the
nation, picked up their intensity in
the second quarter. The outburst became the catalyst for the 10-8 Maryland victory.
“Not necessarily our cleanest
game, but I thought we played hard
for 60 minutes,” Maryland Head
Coach John Tillman said. “Offensively, I think the guys were a little
more organized and played a bit
faster than the other games.”
Four of the five lead changes
occurred in the first quarter, with the
final change happening in the sec-
ond. With 45 seconds left in the second quarter, Maryland junior attacker Matt Rambo set up senior midfielder Bryan Cole for a goal and
gave the Terps the lead at 6-5. It was
in between the second and third
quarters that Maryland put together
a 7-0 run and ended the third quarter
with a comfortable 10-6 lead.
“We weren’t really pressured.
We just had to play our game,” Rambo said. “We knew we would have
our opportunities and I knew our defense would make huge stops.”
Rambo finished the game with
two goals. He also finished with
three assists, contributing two of
them during the 7-0 run.
The Terps have proven to be
successful in Big Ten play, yet the
wins were far from easy. Their margin of victory against Big Ten teams
has been two points or less. In an
April 10 overtime thriller, the Terps
managed to pull out an 11-10 conference win over Penn State.
“It’s a good conference. Every
game seems to be one-goal games
and this one was obviously tight,”
Tilman said. “It just says a lot about
all the programs and the coaching
staffs. They do a great job.
“You gotta be ready every
week. Ohio State has been playing
everybody tough. I think they’ve
had five or six one-goal games. We
didn’t expect too much different and
the game kind of started that way.”
With less than three minutes remaining in the third quarter, the
Buckeyes fought their way back into
the game. Senior attacker Carter
Brown found the back of the net
twice during a 3-0 run. However,
just as the Buckeyes attempted to cut
the lead even more, the Terps’ defense stepped up to the challenges
and regained control.
The mentality of the Maryland
program is “day-to-day” and focusing on what lies in front of them and
not ahead.
“We haven’t actually really
talked about it,” Tilman said on the

10-game winning streak. “The goal
is to win every game and whether
we’ve lost one or we’ve won one,
we have such a narrow focus of just
having a good practice, making sure
we’re prepared with film, and pre-
pare as well as we can.”
Before the Big Ten Tournament
kicks off on May 5, the Terps (11-2,
4-0) will travel to Baltimore this Saturday to hit the field against No. 8
Johns Hopkins (8-4).
Bowie State holds annual spring football game, shows off backup QB
By Sean Farrell
@Sean_PGSSports
BOWIE – The Bowie State
University football program held its
annual spring game on April 22, as
the team prepares to continue building on last season’s success.
Even though it is only spring,
the Bulldogs are showing some of
their bark and bite early on.
The Gray team defeated the
Black team 15-6, but the score didn’t matter. The talent and cohesiveness between the white lines was
evident, and quarterback Nyema
Washington spoke on that and the
upcoming season.
“We had to learn the hard
way,” Washington said. “We lost in
the playoffs and right now we have
a bad taste in our mouths. But
we’ve been working hard all offseason and some of the guys out
here are taking advantage of that
opportunity.”
Backup quarterback Amir Hall
showcased his skills during the
game by showing impressive arm
strength on his throws, as well as
the ability to read and make quick
decisions on the fly. He may have a
legitimate shot to eventually take
the starting job from Washington
this season. Washington didn’t participate in the game due to a bad
knee.
“Coming from Riverdale
(Baptist) and only losing two
games my high school career, we’re
just trying to continue our winning
tradition at Bowie for however long
that I am here,” Hall said.
Bowie State Head Coach Damon Wilson doesn’t mind having a
competition at the quarterback position and is glad to have two guys
who can lead the team.
“We have two guys that are
ready to start and that’s a good
place to be in,” Wilson said. “Both
of those guys have three or four
years of eligibility, so I feel very
good about where we are at the
quarterback position.”
Anthony Squire also looked
ready to go at the running back po-
sition, as he showed his ability to
hit the hole explosively. He has become much tougher to bring down
on initial contact and the Suitland
High School grad should fit in well
with the high-powered Bulldogs offense this season.
Of the defensive side of the
ball, defensive tackle Sean
Copeland is excited for the upcoming season and the possibilities it
holds.
“We’re really excited about the
upcoming season,” Copeland said.
“Last season didn’t end the way we
wanted it to, but we will keep getting better. We have some young
guys who are improving and some
more depth where we didn’t have
depth before. We just kind of just
picked up from where we were.”
Part of that depth is from incoming freshman Reicardo Smith
of Friendly High School. Smith was
a standout at quarterback and defensive back. As a strong and versatile athlete, he’ll be worked in as a
defensive back. His 4.3 speed
should be a tremendous asset down
the line.
Bowie State has a lot to be excited about moving into the fall and
the upcoming season. They still
look like the team to beat in 2016.
“Football is football and we
are determined to get our guys to
the highest level and they’re determined to do it,” Wilson said.

Pumas knock off Eagles on lacrosse pitch, win 7-2
By Craig Lee
@uaingotalicraig
UPPER MARLBORO – Accustomed to playing on artificial
turf, the Dr. Henry A. Wise Jr. boys’
lacrosse squad was not afraid to get
their sticks dirty on Frederick Douglass’ natural field.
The Frederick Douglass Eagles
hosted the Wise Pumas for an April
21 matchup, which the Pumas won
7-2. What appeared to be an evenly
matched game in the early minutes
of play quickly shifted as the first
half wound down.
“They actually communicated,” Wise Head Coach Jeanine
Cummings said. “It was a little different because we’re normally used
to turf, so they had to get used to
playing in the dirt and the ball was a
little more bouncy. I’ve been working with them on their communication skills and their teamwork skills,
so they can talk.”
Communication and teamwork
were indeed a part of the Pumas’
game plan. An assist from senior
Bryan Marshall, Jr. led to the game’s
first goal by junior Malachi
Maxwell. Later, Marcus Marshall
assisted Marshall Jr. on a goal, making the score 2-0.
It wasn’t until the final two
minutes of the first quarter when the
Eagles’ Lynch Jean found an opening through the middle for a score.
Coming out of halftime with a
4-2 lead, the Pumas looked to pile on
more points, but a defensive battle
from both sides slowed down the offensive momentum. A scoreless half
only worked in favor of the Pumas,
as they maintained the lead established during the first quarter.
“I told them that you control the
tempo by the way that you play. The
clock is your friend,” Cummings
said.
The Eagles failed on multiple
attempts to score in the third quarter
and it took away any chance of a
comeback. Douglass Head Coach
Nicholas Reyes said “it came down
to mistakes.”
“There wasn’t really a failure to

April 21. Marshall had a goal and an assist in the Pumasʼ 7-2 victory.
execute. It was mostly mistakes, and
mistakes happen so we just have to
learn to adapt to that,” Reyes said.
A total of five players scored
the seven goals for the Pumas. They
were Maxwell, Marshall Jr., Marshall, Rylan Hales and Cameron
Gould. Four of the seven goals came
in the first half, ultimately giving the
Pumas the confidence they needed
to pull out the win, along with two
more fourth quarter goals. On the
other side, the Eagles were held
scoreless after a second quarter goal
by Kionte Blake.
Moving deeper into the season,
each player on the Pumas roster has
the opportunity to become a captain,
as Cummings has a unique approach
when it comes choosing them. However, their unity on the field gives
reason to believe that they all are
leaders.
“I switch them up every game. I
don’t link it to seniors, and I don’t
link it to underclassmen,” Cummings said. “I switch it up to who I
feel deserves it.”
