Community

With everything we have to deal with

these days, it’s a good idea to protect

ourselves from being scammed by

criminals using the opportunity to cheat

and steal from generous people who are

trying to donate to the tsunami recovery

relief funds. Experts indicate that the best

donation is money so that supplies can be

purchased close to the affected areas. This

saves on transportation costs and logistics.

The following three sections will help you

make a better decision on how to provide

help to others while protecting yourself, if

you decide to assist:

Protect yourself from fraud

The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s

consumer protection agency, has provided

a “charity checklist” to advise consumers

about donation wisely to charities.

If you are asked to contribute to charity,

you should:

a. Ask for the name of the charity if the

telemarketer does not provide it promptly:

b. Ask what percentage of your donation

will support the cause described in the

solicitation;

c. Verify that the charity has authorized

the solicitation;

d. Do not provide any credit card or bank

information until you have reviewed all

information from the charity and made the

decision to donate;

e. Ask for a receipt showing the amount

of the contribution and stating that it is tax

deductible; and

f. Avoid cash gifts. For security and tax

Do you attend the Chamber’s events,

mixers or early morning breakfasts

Maybe it’s time to grow and gain a better

position in your business. Networking is

great for this. When you network, you give

and you receive, but what exactly are the

benefits of networking

1. Being active. Being active is a benefit

of networking. Believe it or not, by just

getting yourself out there and connecting

to people you are moving your career

forward. By going to a networking party or

group, you are taking the first step towards

improving yourself and your business.

2. Openness. Openness is a benefit of

networking. By allowing yourself to be open

you gain more information for yourself and

that you didn’t think of before.

6. Contacts. Gaining contacts is a benefit

of networking. You are sure to make great

new business contacts and connections.

7. Skills. Developing skills is a benefit of

networking. Networking is a skill in itself.

The more you network, the better you do

and the more chances there are that you

will grow.

8. Reputation. Improving your reputation

is a benefit of networking. If you start

networking a lot and become good at it,

you might get a reputation for being a

person people want to talk to and get to

know. Again, this will allow you to grow.

9. Support. Finding support is a benefit

of networking. A good reputation leads to

support. Getting people to be on your side

is like word of mouth advertising. These

people will help spread good information

about who you are and what your business

does.

10. Self Esteem. Gaining self esteem is a

benefit of networking. As humans we need

to socialize and network, which leads to

making friends and getting people to like

us. All this leads to higher self esteem.

Higher self esteem makes you happy and

in turn makes you create a better position

for yourself so that you and your business

will grow.

Buy Local Year Round

Supporting local businesses is the BEST decision you can make all year

long! Supporting local retailers and businesses is great for our local

economy in two obvious ways:

1. Money spent locally, stays local

2. Buying locally keeps sales tax revenue in Rosemead.

Spending $100 at a locally-owned business generates about $68 in local

economic spending compared to $43 from spending that same $100 at

a national chain

Local businesses create local jobs. Local businesses tends to have

higher payrolls and often purchase goods and services from other local

businesses including payroll and accounting services. Staff at local

independent businesses tend to work closer to their homes than big box

employees: their income taxes and property taxes then support these

same local communities.

So please remember to Buy Local this spring and all year long for

these great reasons!

1. Money spent locally, stays local

2. Buying locally keeps sales tax revenue in Rosemead

3. Local businesses create and maintain local jobs

4. Local businesses are preportionately more generous to local

charities, schools and community events

5. Buying locally saves you money on gas and travel time and you avoid

shipping and handling fees on catalog and Internet purchases

6. Buying locally supports and retains our neighborhood business

Easter day is the

Commemoration of

the Resurrection of

Jesus, with its promise

of eternal life. A symbol

of the Resurrection is

the egg out of which a bird

hatches.

So often we celebrate the Easter

Holiday with all our traditions passed on

thru the years, and sometimes we wonder

how it all came about. Here are a few facts

associated with the Holiday:

• The first Easter baskets were made to

look like bird's nests.

• The custom of giving eggs at Easter time

has been traced back to Egyptians, Persians,

Greeks and Romans, to whom the egg was

a symbol of life.

• In medieval times a festival of eggthrowing

was held in church, during which

the priest would throw a hard-boiled egg

to one of the choir boys. It was then tossed

from one choir boy to the next and whoever

held the egg when the clock struck 12 was

the winner and retained the

egg.

• Easter is now

celebrated on the first

Sunday after the full

moon which happens

on or after March 21,

the Spring Equinox.

• It is an ancient tradition in Britain

to climb the nearest hill to see the sunrise.

In America they hold outdoor services at

dawn in such places as the Hollywood

Bowl.

• On this day it is also tradition to wear

new clothes which have been carried on

to the modern "Easter Parade".

• The Easter Bunny symbolizes new life

and rebirth. It is considered it a symbol

of the moon, as the moon determines

the date of Easter. The Easter Bunny's

visit is based upon a German Legend.

The legend goes that a poor woman

decorated eggs for her children to find

during a famine. At the moment they

found them, they looked up to see a big

bunny hopping away.

EMUHSD Board Meetings “Go

Green”

by Anne Donofrio-Holter

In an effort to do its part to help preserve the

earth’s natural resources, the El Monte Union High

School District went “green” beginning with its March

2 board meeting. The decision came following the

board’s request to look into a more environmentally

friendly and cost effective way to distribute board

packets.

“The district will be saving paper, copy machine

toner, the wear and tear of the copy machine

itself, staples and staff time,” said superintendent

Nick Salerno. “Last year, the district was charged

over $8,200 for the printing of board packets and

booklets and extra copies that went out to the various

administrators, directors, union representatives,

management, and community.”

According to Salerno, the district administration

looked into several companies who provide the

electronic version of board governance systems. After

reviewing the services of five companies, BoardDocs

was selected with board approval in October 2010.

Board packets and all related documents will now be

more readily available to the public enabling them to

To be considered for this honor, students must

first time students entering Pasadena City College

from a high school within the United States and must

enroll in 12 or more units for the fall 2010 term.

“We have a lot to be proud of, especially with

these students,” said Pasadena City College professor

and El Monte Union High School District board

president Esthela Torres de Siegrist. “The Pasadena

City College PTSA is one of only two PTSAs based

on a community college campus and has been serving

PCC students, faculty and staff since 1941.”

Recipients were honored at a special reception

where they each received a $400 scholarship. Each

recipient also qualifies for membership in Alpha

with membership to the society posted on their

academic record.

“We are very proud of our graduates and wish

them continued success as they pursue future goals,”

said Nick Salerno, EMUHSD superintendent.

“Prior to this change, the community did not have

access to any documents in advance unless they came

to the district office and requested them,” said Salerno.

“While we posted the board agenda and minutes on

the district’s website, reports and documents were not

online.”

The community will now be able to access the

district’s board packets by visiting the following

will also be able to access other information from this

site including district board policies, board profiles

“To support our environment and save precious

resources, the El Monte Union High School District

is going green,” said Salerno. “By utilizing the

paperless BoardDocs program for board reports and

meetings, this change also constitutes a cost savings

to the district, making it a win-win situation for all.”

Superintendent’s Message: - Dr. Amy Enomoto-Perez

Students and Adult Mentors Help Supt. on

Career Journey

Like many administrators, Amy Enomoto-

Perez, Superintendent of Rosemead School

District, knew from an early age she was

destined to become an educator. “I always

wanted to be a teacher,” she said. “Even though

I am Superintendent, my heart and soul is in the

classroom.”

In junior high, Enomoto-Perez joined Future

Teachers of America. In college, she applied

for the Teacher Corps. She was accepted to the

University of Southern California’s Graduate

School of Education, and worked as an intern

at Compton USD.

“I wanted to make sure I was still committed

to this decision,” she said. “I had always hoped

to become a teacher one day, but I wanted to

check on my career goal and I felt the way to do

that was to work with children.”

Early in her career, Enomoto-Perez worked

part-time as an instructional aide for English

learners. She went on to work as an elementary

language arts specialist in Santa Ana USD,

bilingual resource teacher in Lawndale SD and

elementary ESL/EL teacher in Rosemead.

Enomoto-Perez said as an ESL teacher, her

students – young and old – have given her many

new insights about education and the United

States. Through their eyes, she has learned to

recognize and treasure the opportunities this

country has to offer.

One of her adult students from Mexico,

Miguel, told her that he had always heard

the streets of America were paved with gold.

He literally believed this was true and was

disappointed upon arrival that this was not the

case. Miguel said that in Mexico, one would

never find coins discarded on the ground, and

not picked up by a passersby as here in the U.S.

“We talked about how people pass up pennies

rather than pick them up because they think

it is beneath them to pick up these coins,” she

said. “Miguel told me that he always picks up

pennies he finds. Now I do too, not so much that

I need the pennies, but rather because I always

think of Miguel and the lesson he taught me about

not overlooking any opportunity.”

As a member of an immigrant family herself,

Enomoto-Perez said she can relate to the cultural

and linguistic challenges of English learners. Her

grandparents were immigrants from Japan, and

English was a second language for her parents and

older brother.

“I have great empathy for our immigrant

families and students who might experience the

same (challenges) because their parents may feel

the language barrier or inability to speak English

keeps them away from school,” she said. “I try to

make sure, therefore, that our school offices and

sites are very parent-friendly, especially if there is

language or cultural diversity.”

Like many immigrant families, Enomoto-

Perez’s family faced many challenges in adapting

to a new culture, language and way of life. But this

was made worse by World War II, when her family

was settled in relocation camps.

“When the Japanese Americans did leave

camp, many were displaced without homes to

return to. They were given minimal resources to

re-start their lives, so jobs and survival were the

focus of their lives and not school,” she said.

Enomoto-Perez’s mother was chronically ill

throughout her childhood, and later passed away

when Enomoto-Perez was in high school. Teachers

and other school staff often stepped in to fulfill

duties her mother was unable to perform.

“This is what I remember of my teachers:

awesome individuals who really cared about their

students. I went into education to pay that forward,”

she said. “I had wonderful teachers all throughout

my school career and so many of them influenced

my desire to become an educator. They all took

an interest in my academic life and served as life

mentors, wonderful teachers and outstanding role

models of what I wanted to achieve.”

Although she always knew she wanted to

work in education, Enomoto-Perez didn’t think

she would pursue a career in administration. When

she was offered a job as a middle school summer

El Monte High School

Greenhouse Up and Running

by Anne Donofrio-Holter

Thanks to $2,000 in grants from the Upper San

Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District, the El Monte

High School suburban water irrigation project and

California native plant project is now underway.

Spearheaded by instructors Steven Swanson and

Ashley Garkow, the irrigation project

will allow students to learn hands-on how

and why water irrigation is important

in residential properties in Southern

California and the native plant project

will demonstrate the difference in water

consumption between California native

plants and other decorative plants. To

achieve this goal, students built an

irrigation system for a small patch of

grass and built a greenhouse next to the

science department.

“The Alt-Energy Ghetto Greenhouse

is the focal point of integration of

technology in all courses taught in the El

Monte High School science department. This project

was initiated to increase collaboration between

courses and teachers with a scaffolding of projects,

labs, and activities for the various science classes,”

said principal Keith Richardson. “The Alt-Energy

Ghetto Greenhouse curriculum includes practical

skills, critical thinking and community service that

benefit the students, the school and the community.

Biology students will grow two types of plants.

“One will be a water wise California native plant

and the other a water thirsty plant,” said Garkow.

“Students will record various data including plant

growth and water consumption.”

Arroyo High School Places Third

in City Recycling Contest

by Anne Donofrio-Holter

Arroyo High School has placed third in the

El Monte City Recycling CRV School Contest.

Collecting 703 pounds of plastic bottles, aside from

the normal recycling fee, the school was awarded a

check for $500. During the months of November

and December, elementary, middle, and high schools

competed to see which could collect the most CRV

beverage containers for recycling.

“I am very proud of the hard work and effort

the Arroyo community has put forth in our recycling

program,” said assistant principal Angie Gonzales.

“It has been a win-win situation, where we recycle for

the environment and gain support for our programs.”

Some of the benefits of recycling include

principal, she took it. Later, her superintendent

suggested she enroll at the university as an intern

for the administrative credential program. By

chance, she ran into her former Teacher Corps

director, who was now the faculty mentor.

In fact, mentors have always played a huge

role in Enomoto-Perez’s education and career.

From her Japanese American junior high school

teacher to superintendents who encouraged her to

move up the career ladder, she had many mentors

to look up to.

“All throughout my career, but especially in

Rosemead, I have had numerous wonderful mentors

both male and female, teachers, administrators,

assistant superintendents and superintendents,”

she said. “Our assistant superintendent and later

superintendents afforded me wonderful learning

opportunities.

Enomoto-Perez also credits the support of her

school board in helping her achieve her professional

goals. “It would not have been possible for me to

get or keep this job without their incredible support

and encouragement throughout the years,” she

said. “They too have been among my most ardent

mentors who always encourage me to grow.”

In the Rosemead district, which has a student

population that is about half Hispanic and half

Asian, Enomoto-Perez has worked as a teacher,

site administrator, district administrator for English

categorical programs, technology and facilitator

of the district strategic plan. She also served as

assistant superintendent of educational services

before taking the superintendency.

When Enomoto-Perez was offered the

position as interim superintendent, the move was

not without its challenges. For one, she had not

planned on the career change. She had three small

children and was working toward her doctorate.

The district itself was having major labor, finance

and facilities challenges. Staff morale was at

an all-time low. Enomoto-Perez, who had to

learn all aspects of business and facilities

quickly, was preparing for a potential strike

and facilities lawsuit.

“The first two years were the toughest,

and I came to realize that I could not be

insulated from our district problems.

I decided I needed to be part of the

solution and accepted the role as district

superintendent,” she said. “Almost 14 years

later and I am still here loving my work and

the relationships established here.”

Enomoto-Perez said her success is due, in

part, to opportunities she has had working in a

variety of positions. “For me, having supervised

According to Garkow, the data collected will

then be used to calculate the amount of water savings

per year by using the native plants.

Over the course of the on-going, multi-year

project, approximately 400 students in grade levels

ten through 12 will be involved.

“Through these projects, our students will see the

dramatic water saving capabilities of native California

plants in an area where water conservation is vital,”

added Garkow.

According to Richardson, students

have been given the opportunity to use

more precise detailed instrumentation,

conduct online research, perform

virtual labs, and problem solve to

better understand science concepts.

“This application of science

has taught students that technology

goes hand in hand with science

knowledge,” he said. “The students

are learning skills that keep them

competitive in this digital age and

students look forward to working

with the technology because it makes

learning more enjoyable.”

According to Richardson, in addition to the water

district grants, a grant from Hewlett Packard has aided

in the El Monte High School science department

“becoming technology rich and current.”Many

teachers, he added, see the technologies used by the

science department and have looked into making

changes to utilize the advantages of technology in

their classrooms.

“We want to thank the Upper San Gabriel Valley

Municipal Water District and Hewlett Packard for

helping our students have the opportunity to participate

in these important projects,” said superintendent Nick

Salerno.

saving energy, supplying valuable raw materials to

industry and stimulating the development of greener

technologies. Every ton of recycled paper saves 17

trees and 7,000 gallons of water. Recycling one ton

of glass saves the equivalent of ten gallons of oil. A

recycled aluminum can saves enough energy to run

a television for three hours and one recycled glass

container saves enough to light a 100-watt bulb for

four hours.

“Congratulations to all participants. You did a

great job,” said Sandy Costandi, City of El Monte

recycling consultant. “Through your efforts 2,888

pounds of CRV beverage containers were collected

and recycled.”

According to Gonzales, the prize money will

be used to help students who can not afford school

items such as caps and gowns, sports equipment or

PE uniforms and will help pay the cost of student

advanced placement exams.

every department in the organization has

brought me a unique understanding of all of the

operations of the district,” she said. “Whether

it is food services, maintenance or special

education, it is different when you actually

have served as an administrator in charge of

the particular program.

“After all these years, I have come to

realize nothing substitutes for professional and

life experience. Therefore, I suggest aspiring

superintendent candidates work and take on as

many different jobs as possible to learn from.

Enomoto-Perez said as rewarding as her

career has been, it hasn’t always been easy.

The job takes long hours and non-traditional

work hours. Finding the right balance between

work and family can be tough. “For me, this is

a position that requires 24/7 commitment and

love for the work,” she said. “As the steward

of public education in the community, it is

important to know that the work is more about

a ‘calling’ than a normal job. You’ve got to

love this job or it will never make sense and

be frustrating. I believe this is true, however, of

anyone who does something well; not just of

superintendents.”

Enomoto-Perez said despite the many

elements of the job, her ultimate goal is simple:

to prepare students for the future. “I’d like each

child to grow and become an adult who can

provide his or her best to his or her family and

children, she said. “I’d like to believe we prepare

our students to value and provide leadership

and service to their work and community in

future years.”

Community

What is Relay for Life

The American Cancer Society Relay

for Life is a fun overnight team event that

raises funds to fight cancer. Throughout

Relay for Life, dedicated teams of friends,

families, and co-workers commit to

keeping at least one member walking the

track at all times….because cancer never

stops. Relay for Life brings together the

entire Rosemead Community in the fight

against cancer.

Relay for Life gives us an opportunity

to honor cancer survivors and to remember

those who have lost their fight with the

disease. We honor cancer survivors by

inviting them to take the first lap around

the track, the Survivor’s Lap, where we

celebrate their victory over this disease.

The Luminaria ceremony is another

highlight of the event. A Luminaria is a

small bag filled with sand, containing

a small candle that makes it glow. Each

Luminaria bears the name of a person who

has battled cancer. At dusk, we light all the

candles along the path. They burn into the

night, honoring and memorializing those

who have faced cancer, and lighting the

way for walkers…along the path of hope.

Tips for E-filing Your Tax Return

With less than a month to go before

Tax Day, more taxpayers are considering e-

filing their federal income tax returns. The

IRS encourages taxpayers to e-file, citing

it as the “safest, fastest and easiest way to

submit their individual tax returns.” Last

year, nearly 100 million taxpayers took

them up on it; since 1990, taxpayers have

e-filed nearly 1 billion individual federal

income tax returns.

With e-file, taxpayers can avoid

common filing mistakes. This doesn’t

mean, however, that you shouldn’t be

careful. Following are a few e-filing tips to

help you get your return to the IRS safely

this tax season:

• Organize your records before you begin. You’ll

need your current year tax documents as

well as last year’s tax return.

• Sign your return. Yes, you’ll “sign” your

e-filed return, too, by entering last year’s

adjusted gross income or a five digit PIN

(Personal Identification Number) that

you create. To create a PIN, go to the IRS

website and fill out its secure form.

• Pay your taxes. If you e-file and you owe,

you can send a check to the U.S. Treasury,

pay by credit card or authorize an electronic

funds withdrawal.

• Get your refund. If you e-file and you’re

due a refund, you can arrange to have your

check mailed to you or get it faster with

direct deposit.

• Be secure. If you e-file your tax return using

third party online software, make sure that

the connection is secure (one telltale sign is

“https” in the URL).

• Use common sense. If you use a shared

computer, such as a computer at a public

library, make sure you log out from the

program and clear out the Web browser

cache. It’s recommended, however, that

for the best security, you not use a shared

computer.

• Consider using an authorized IRS e-file provider.

If you opt not to e-file on your own, you

can use the Authorized IRS e-file Provider

Locator to find a tax professional who has

been accepted into the IRS electronic filing

program.

• Remember that the IRS doesn't charge to e-file.

While your tax professional or software

provider may charge a fee, the IRS doesn’t

charge a fee for electronic filing. If you

qualify for free tax services, you may be

able to e-file and not pay a thing.

• Be careful. Finally, remember, if you

receive an email purporting to be from the

IRS that requires a response, do not click

on it or respond directly. The IRS will never

initiate contact with taxpayers via email.
