Lewis and Patterson elementary schools in southeast
Houston will get new buildings
and Garden Villas Elementary
will undergo needed renovations if voters pass an $805
million bond measure in November, said Houston Independent School District board
President Manuel Rodriguez
Jr. at the Oct. 3 gathering of the
Greater Hobby Area Chamber
of Commerce.
In addition, Mitchell Elementary, 10900 Gulfdale,
will get a “relief school” to
handle its overflow of students, said Rodriguez, calling
Mitchell
“the
mostovercrowded school in the district.”
“It’s got over 1,100 students; it was built for 650,”
said Rodriguez, adding the new
facility may be built at Almeda
and Valentine, but that a final
decision has not been made on
the site.
The bond issue will also
help upgrade science labs at
secondary schools, Rodriguez
said, saying the district did
similar work on the labs in elementary schools and saw a
improvement in Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills
scores.

the 54 Houston-area school
districts, Rodriguez said the
bond issue will fund infrastructural improvements without a tax hike.
“This will be at zero cost to
our taxpayers,” he said.
It would also help Houston
school district students get an
education on par with their
counterparts in more affluent
suburban communities, he
said.
“We need to reinvest in our
infrastructure,” he said.
“We need to make our
schools the best we can to provide that quality education
that everybody talks about that
is out in the suburbs and not
here in town.”
This year’s bond is the third
and final phase of a bond program that started in 1998, Rodriguez said.
“There’s 134 schools that
have been waiting 10 years to
be touched by one of the bond
programs,” he said.
“We’re trying to (keep) the
promise that we made to the
schools, the communities and
the teachers to come in and finish the final phase of this
three-phase program.”

elementary

in nation to be
selected for honor
■
The Houston school district’s Scott Elementary School
has been named a prestigious
Blue Ribbon School by the U.S.
Department of Education.
The No Child Left BehindBlue Ribbon School award was
given to 287 schools across the
nation.
The Blue Ribbon award honors schools for helping students
achieve at high levels and for
making significant progress in
closing the achievement gap.
“The National Blue Ribbon
award is considered by some to
be the highest honor that an
American school can achieve.
We are humbled to be among
the 23 Texas schools to receive
this awesome recognition,”
said Artice D. Hedgemon, principal, Scott Elementary School,
3300 Russell St.
“It is a wonderful testament
to the commitment and dedication of the entire school community,” Hedgeman said.
“The teachers, staff, students, parents and business
partners at Scott Elementary
hold teaching, learning and accountability in high esteem.”
Selection process
The award honors public
and private elementary, middle
and high schools that are either
academically superior or that
demonstrate dramatic gains in
student achievement.
The schools are selected
based on one of two criteria:
■ Schools with at least 40 percent of their students from disadvantaged backgrounds that
dramatically improve student
performance to high levels on
state tests; and
■ Schools whose students, regardless
of
background,
achieve in the top 10 percent of
their state on state tests or in
the case of private schools in
the top 10 percent of the nation
on nationally normed tests.
The award-winning schools
will be honored at an awards
ceremony in Washington, D.C.
on Nov. 12-13.

ETTY Morgan Bennett
loves the brightness of
primary colors, and she
also is a huge fan of the African
American culture.
So she’s combined these two
things to create a series of folk
art
featuring
elongated,
brightly-colored ethnic women
carrying urns, baskets or bowls.
“I’ve always been fascinated
with collecting African American things, and I just kind of incorporated it into my artwork,”
said Bennett, whose day job is in
telecommunication equipment
sales for Inter-Tel Technologies,
1140 W. Loop North .
She began painting while a
student at Milby High School.
“That really started off in
high school with some art
classes,” said Bennett, a 60year-old grandmother of 10 who
lives in League City.
“I painted a picture that
ended up traveling across the
country with artwork from
other students, and that kind of
sparked something in me.”
Bennett attended Sam Houston State University where she
earned a degree in home economics, following in the footsteps of her mother, who was an
interior designer.
While Bennett herself enjoyed a stint as an interior designer in the former family business, she continued to dabble in
painting.
Bennett mostly focuses on
watercolor still life now, but
there was a time when she enjoyed oil landscapes — one of
which she said is hanging at
Prosperity State Bank in Hempstead. Her current work can be
found at 2411 Strand in
Galveston.
“Customers like her use of
color and her subject matter,”
said Teresa Ouellette, store
owner. “Betty is a very bold art-

But the impact of that money
can be multiplied by “leveraging that million dollars,” said
Yeiter, noting that the Uptown
Houston District collects about
$13 million in annual assessments but attracts more than
triple that amount in grants
from city, county state and federal governments.
“Now, we’re dumb if we
don’t do this, if you ask me,” he
said. “We’re just dumb.”
Yeiter asked chamber members to approach commercial
property owners with copies of
the district’s petition for services
and
improvements.
Twenty-five owners must sign
the petition, “or we’re out of
business,” he said.
Yeiter said the district and
civic groups can also bolster the
area’s identity by creating an
annual community event with a
small-town to bring residents
and businesses together.
He cited Alvin’s Annual
Frontier Days Celebration and
the North Shore Rotary Club’s
Annual Catfish Fry and Crawfish Boil as examples of events
that foster a sense of community while raising thousands of
dollars for charitable causes or
infrastructural improvements.

Hartman teacher receives $14,000 grant
DAVE ROSSMAN : F O R T H E C H R O N I C L E
READING IS FUN: Second graders from MacGregor Elementary School met Downtown Aquarium mascot
A grant program created by
basketball legend Michael Jordan will help take science out of
the textbook and place it in the
hands and minds of 6th-8th
grade students at Hartman
Middle School, 7111 Westover.
Jane Taylor, robotics teacher
at Hartman, is a 2007 recipient
of the Inspiration Grant from
the Jordan Fundamentals Grant
Program for $14,000.
Applying for this award is by
invitation only (for teachers
who have received $2,500 Jordan Innovation grants and successfully completely smaller
projects) and the average project is funded for $10,000.
Taylor’s submission was

of the textbook and places it in
the hands and minds of 6th-8th
grade students.
Three science teachers representing each grade level will
work to combine science with
the appeal of LEGO educational
robotics.
Hartman’s teachers will introduce and reinforce applied
physical science concepts such
as the physics of motion, engineering design, and programming.
Working together, students
will design and construct robots, among other things. The
project will end with a robotics

child’s dream.
The event, which took place
Sept. 27, is a philanthropic initiative of Executive Women International, an organization
with more than 3,500 members
across the United States,
Canada and Europe.
The goal is to bring the gift
and excitement of reading to all
children and to demonstrate an
excitement for reading through
chapter and community volunteers.
More than 350 members attended the event at which nine
costumed mascots from several
companies — including Jack the
Dog from Wells Fargo, Sharky
from the Downtown Aquarium
and Octavius Octopus from
Landry’s Restaurant — lent a
hand to author/illustrator Kay
Douglas, a member of Executive
Women International, who read
to the children.
“The children were the stars
of the day,” Allen said. “They
were well pampered, they received T-shirts, had several stories read to them, received
stuffed animals, books and a full
backpack.

The company provides classroom volunteers to deliver special programs, help plant vegetables in the school garden, revamp classrooms that need a

Ward joined the pupils at this

“The principal was presented with a $4,500 check,
which I don’t think she was expecting,” Ward said. “The money is for the school to put towards literacy initiatives.”

T
HE Austin girls volleyball team got
a taste of the Class 4A playoffs a
year ago, and coach Tomlisha
Randle says the Mustangs liked it.
In fact, Austin would like nothing more
than to repeat their postseason run with a
top three finish in District 20-4A.
“The only thing that matters is getting to
the playoffs,” Randle said.
“That’s our goal. We have to
make it.”
A few weeks ago, the
prospects looked dim for the
Mustangs after back-to-back
league setbacks to Reagan
and Davis. With a 2-3 district

knew Austin’s margin for error was slim.

CHRONICLE CORRESPONDENT
The Sterling volleyball team
has been eliminated from the
District 19-4A playoff race, but
coach Rachel Mackey still views
her team as a possible spoiler.
Sterling, which met firstplace Kashmere earlier this
week, will take on Wheatley,
another postseason contender, at
6:30 p.m. Friday
at Barnett Sports
complex.

against Worthing
MACKEY
at 4 p.m. Oct. 19
at Barnett.
“The kids still come to practice and are working hard,
which is a credit to them,” said
first-year Sterling head coach
Rachel Mackey. “We’re just trying to keep our spirits up and
finish strong.”
Sterling,
3-8
overall,
dropped a pair of league
matches last week to slip to 3-6
in District 19-4A. The Raiders
lost to Furr in five games 29-27,
25-27, 25-23, 19-25, 15-10, then
fell to Scarborough 26-24, 2523, 25-18.
“If we had won those two
matches, we’d still be in the
playoff picture,” Mackey said.
Sterling was without two
starters against Scarborough,
middle blocker Natisha Lavalais
and setter Whitney Price. Lavalais sprained her knee against
Furr and sat out as a precautionary measure.
“Not having those girls hurt
us,” Mackey said.
Lavalais, a 5-foot-8 senior
captain, has been Sterling’s offensive catalyst, averaging six
kills and three blocks per match
from her middle blocker position.
“Natisha is our best overall
player,” Mackey said. “She
leads us in kills and blocks.
She’s also our leader on the

won, like against Furr and Scarborough. Maybe we’re not fighting hard enough. It’s hard to

Madison aims at Westside
Madison head football coach
Ray Seals isn’t sure there is a
way to stop Westside, but his
Marlins will give it their best
shot when the teams meet at
7:30 p.m. Friday at Butler Stadium.
“I’ve watched their last two
games, and I don’t think they’ve
had a drive longer than seven
plays,” Seals said. “They’re
pretty explosive. They sure can
score in a hurry.”
Westside (3-2, 2-0) is averaging more than 400 yards and
36.4 points per game, tops in
District 20-5A. The Wolves
dominated their first two District 20-5A opponents, beating
Milby and Westbury by respective scores of 35-6 and 49-33.
Seals said Westside simply
has too many weapons, includ-
ing quarterback
Mike Goodnight
(1,064
yards
passing,
10
touchdowns),
running
back
Frank Williams
(700
yards,
SEALS
seven TDs) and
receivers Mike Smith, Arvin
Jackson and Kevin Brooks.
Goodnight is the scariest of
the bunch. Just ask Westbury,
which saw him complete 16 of
21 passes for 221 yards and four
touchdowns. Goodnight also
ran for a score.
“Our best chance is to keep
those guys off the field as long
as possible,” Seals said. “We
need to control the clock offensively, and the defense has to
play well.”
But Seals is feeling slightly
more relaxed about the Marlins
(2-3, 1-1), who held off Bellaire
23-14 last week. Madison trailed
7-0 at half-time before outscoring the Cardinals 23-7 the first

we absolutely had to have to
make the playoffs,” Seals said.
“Now we have to play Westside,
which might be the best team in
the district. It doesn’t get any
easier.”
District 20-4A showdown
The Yates-Washington rivalry is one of Houston ISD’s
most historic, making Saturday’s 6 p.m. showdown between
the Lions and Eagles at Barnett
Stadium a must-see game for
area football fans.
Yates (4-0, 2-0) ripped Reagan 60-0 last week, while
Washington (3-2, 2-0) edged
previously unbeaten Davis 1312.
Quarterback Darveon Trahan led the Lions last week,
throwing for 103 yards and a
touchdown and rushing twice
for 79 yards, including a 59-yard
score. Six different players ran
for touchdowns and the defense
scored twice on fumble recoveries.

“I don’t think we took Bellaire lightly, but we just didn’t
play well the first half,” Seals
said. “Fortunately, we regrouped at halftime and went
back to the basics and focused
on the little things we weren’t
doing well.”
LeDarrayae Groover, Madison’s all-district running back,
rushed 21 times for 141 yards.
Groover broke loose on a 49yard touchdown run in the third
quarter and added a four-yard
score late in the game. He also
ran for a pair of two-point conversions.
“LeDarrayae played like he
should have been all year,”
Seals said. “He did an outstanding job.”

SPORTS CALENDAR

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5
Semi-pro tryouts: A semi-pro
“I think those two losses
woke us up, especially the Davis
match,” Randle said.
Austin crushed its next two
opponents, beating Sharpstown
25-10, 25-18, 25-12 and Washington 25-11, 25-12, 25-8. The
Mustangs also won a match at
last month’s Houston ISD Invitational.
Last week, Austin even took
a game off Austin before losing
in four, 25-17, 25-14, 21-25, 2515. That Left the Mustangs at
20-7 overall and 4-4 in District
20-4A.
“We’ve had a lot of success so
far,” Randle said, noting that
Austin finished second at the
Sam Houston Tournament and
posted wins over Pasadena and
Aldine.
Austin has one of the
league’s top players in senior
Jessica Hernandez, a 5-foot-8
outside hitter. Hernandez is averaging close to eight kills per
match to lead the Mustangs.
“Jessica has been our go-to
player,” Randle said. “She usually leads us in kills most
nights.”
Angelica Delgado, a 5-8 junior, is the other outside hitter,
while Melissa Chatman, a 5-11
senior, and Cassie Guerrero, a 57 junior, start at middle blocker.
“Melissa is an exciting
player,” Randle said. “She’s had
some big-time blocks for us.”
Mia Lopez, a 5-7 junior, and
Annette Gaona, a 5-9 senior,
have gotten plenty of playing
time at outside hitter and right
football team is holding tryouts
for the spring season Saturday.

face always-tough Reagan Friday at Barnett Sports Complex.
side hitter, respectively.
A difference-maker for the
Mustangs is Cynthia Miramontes, a 5-7 junior. Miramontes is
Austin’s defensive whiz, providing reliable support at the
libero position.
“Cynthia can neutralize
teams with her defense,”
Randle said.
“She’s had some amazing
digs.”
Zadai Castillo, a 5-4 senior,
has the tough challenge of playing setter and has done a commendable job so far.
“When Zadai is on top of her
game, we’re like clock work,”
Randle said.
Adding depth are 5-5 senior
Serena Narcisse, the back-up
setter, and 5-8 junior Kimberley
Escobedo, a right side hitter/
middle blocker.
Randle said it will be virtually impossible for Austin to
catch District 20-4A frontrunner Waltrip, but the Rams
could take one of the next two
playoff spots if they play well
during their final four league
matches.
“We’ve got the talent,”
Randle said. “We proved it last
year. Hopefully, we can do it all
over again.”
