New Track Team Forming

Harbor View Elementary School is forming a new track team that will practice three times a week for 12 weeks and participate in three local races.

The team will meet from Jan. 25 through May 1 and will be open to all students, from kindergarten though sixth grade. There will be a $60 fee that will cover training and entry fees for the Spirit Run on March 21, the Newport Beach Track Meet on April 16 and the Kids Run sponsored by the OC Marathon on May 1.

Practices will be held Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:50 to 3:30 p.m. Volunteer coaches, timers and attendance monitors are needed. Organizers also are looking for safety monitors to watch driveway areas while kids run loops in neighborhoods around the school.

Parent Kim Seybold is organizing the creation of the team.

PFO President Jan Parker said she expected a lot of students to participate.

“This is just great for our kids at Harbor View,” she said.

Sixth Graders Graduate D.A.R.E. Program

Police and school district officials were on hand Tuesday morning for a ceremony to honor Harbor View students who graduated from an 11-week anti-drug program.

D.A.R.E. Officer Rachel Johnson presented a video that showed what the students had learned, including tests they had performed wearing goggles that simulated being drunk, and a breathing test that showed what it was like to be a pack-a-day smoker.

Students Will Cord, Alex Stowell, Karl Donovan and Christopher Rybus were awarded prizes for their essays on how to resist drug abuse.

“Drugs are dumb,” Christopher read from his essay. “I have only one life, so I want to make the best of it.”

Police Chief Robert Luman as well as other officials attended and shook hands with each student as they were presented a D.A.R.E. diploma. D.A.R.E. stands for Drug Abuse Resistance Education. The students then presented Officer Johnson with a gift basket.
