Week 10: TNT's final high school Top 10 team rankings in Washington

Here are The News Tribune’s Week 10 (final) Top 10 team rankings for Washington’s four largest classifications: 4A, 3A, 2A and 1A. CLASS 4A 1. Puyallup (9-0) 2. Lake Stevens (7-1) 3. Graham-Kapowsin (7-2) 4. Sumner (8-1) 5. Skyview (9-0) 6. Kennedy Catholic (8-1) 7. Moses Lake (8-1) 8. Eastmont (8-1) 9. Chiawana (8-1) 10. Bothell (8-1) The skinny: Puyallup is the state’s undisputed No. 1 after beating Graham-Kapowsin in the 4A SPSL championship game last week. Puyallup boasts regular season wins over No. 2 Lake Stevens, No. 3 G-K and No. 4 Sumner, as well as 3A No. 2 Bellevue. CLASS 3A 1. O’Dea (9-0) 2. Bellevue (8-1) 3. Eastside Catholic (8-1) 4. Federal Way (8-1) 5. Enumclaw (7-0) 6. Rainier Beach (7-2) 7. Mount Tahoma (5-3) 8. Southridge (8-1) 9. Lakes (7-1) 10. Stanwood (9-0) The skinny: Eastside Catholic remains in the No. 3 spot after a close win over No. 6 Rainier Beach last week, which likely helped the Crusaders in the eyes of the state seeding committee also, after a lopsided loss to O’Dea earlier. CLASS 2A 1. Tumwater (9-0) 2. Anacortes (7-1) 3. Archbishop Murphy (5-2) 4. Lynden (7-2) 5. Prosser (9-0) 6. W.F. West

‘I don’t remember him saying, ‘I’m not in charge of any of this”: Jake questions Reykdal’s office as I-638 heads toward Dec. 3

After voters passed Initiative 638, the state schools office said it has no formal role in school sports. KIRO host Jake Skorheim pointed out that state schools Superintendent Chris Reykdal had urged voters to reject the measure on air. KIRO host Spike O’Neill voted for the initiative, but he warned that the way it’s written leaves it open to a court challenge.

Gov. Ferguson noncommittal on joining billion-dollar federal education program

WASHINGTON STATE — Gov. Bob Ferguson has not said whether Washington will join a new federal scholarship tax credit program, saying his lawyers are reviewing the rules. “We just got the actual rules, which matter for how these can be implemented, and so we’re taking a close look at those rules,” Ferguson told KOMO News. “We’ve got lawyers taking a look at it. Sometimes the rules aren’t quite as clear as we’d like it to be.”

Playoffs: TNT's football Game of Week, predictions for every South Sound matchup

The “Round of 32” is here, with high school football playoff games being played across Washington this weekend. Here’s our Game of the Week pick in the South Sound, along with our predictions for every local matchup. GAME OF THE WEEK No. 17 Camas (6-3) vs. No. 16 Olympia (7-2) 7 p.m. Friday at Ingersoll Stadium (Olympia) Olympia will look to bounce back after the Bears were stopped in their tracks by back-to-back Class 4A state champion Sumner last week in a 38-8 loss. Olympia kept things a little closer against Graham-Kapowsin in early October, though, and has improved under first-year coach Cary Nagel. Senior running back Ibrahima Diallo is averaging nearly 200 yards per game on the ground and has racked up 21 touchdowns. Camas, meanwhile, will be eager to get to the 4A state tournament after the Papermakers have fallen short of lofty preseason expectations this year. Camas fared well against 4A SPSL opponent Curtis in September in a 41-14 win. Skyview had Camas’ number this year, but I think the Papermakers are heading into the postseason with some positive momentum. The matchup between Diallo and Camas senior running back Thor Brody should be fun. TNT pick: Camas

Teachers, parents ask Kennewick schools to investigate Fuerza leadership

Parents and teachers are asking Kennewick School District to investigate leadership at Fuerza Elementary School amid concerns of changes to its two-way dual language programs. Earlier this month, the Kennewick Education Association teacher’s union rallied at the school to demand “better working conditions and a more respectful and supportive environment.” Allegations have surfaced online that teachers are being intimidated, and their concerns are being dismissed by building leaders. The accusations, while unspecific at the moment, add tension to a school serving 610 K-5 students living in southwest Kennewick and home to the district’s first fully dual language program . Concerned parents also created a Facebook page, and have so far gathered hundreds of signatures in support of district intervention and removing Principal Dora Johns, who has led the school for four years . That group, Fuerza Unidos, plans to speak more about their issues publicly at the Nov. 4 meeting of the Kennewick School Board . In a statement, Kennewick School District administration said they were “aware of concerns on social media about the school.” “District leadership is listening, taking these concerns seriously and actively working through the district’s established processes to address them,” it read. “While we cannot discuss

‘Needs to be addressed.' Inside Kennewick's oldest, cramped middle school

Highlands Middle School band and orchestra teacher Fiona Estrellado says her student performances are like a “big family, community event.” She teaches about a third of the students who attend the Kennewick middle school, or more than 200 students in 6th-8th grades. Families turn out in droves to see their kids perform, and students often say their siblings took a class with her. While music programs at Highlands Middle School are growing, Estrellado says her band room hasn’t. The school was built in 1959 , way before the school even had an orchestra program. Finding space for instruments —and students — can be a challenge. It’s a prime example of the problems teachers at the district’s oldest schools are facing, and why Kennewick is considering asking the community to support replacing the aging schools. “There’s just so much history in this classroom, which is really cool in a way, but we get a little squished,” she said Wednesday evening as students filed in and out before a performance to the visiting school board. “Every year, I have more students that sign up, and I never want to reach a point where I can’t accept more kids because I don’t have
