Welcome to Lake Washington High School, home of the Kangaroos.

I'm Christina Thomas the principal.

Lake Washington High school was built in 2011 to accommodate a 3 year high school model.

In 2012 and 2013 Lake Washington School district moved to 4 year high school model,

which increased the number of students attending Lake Washington.

We are continuing to experience growth every year.

We've gone from a school of 900 students in 2011

to now a student body 1597 students.

The next few years is looking at incoming classes of over 400 students.

Next year we are planning to be over 1700.

In future years even more.

It's very crowded, especially during passing periods.

It's very difficult getting through so many people.

Even in the halls, sometimes the halls can just get packed.

It's a little bit overwhelming.

When Lake Washington high School was built, there was a plan to build a second phase addition

to accommodate future growth.

Lake Washington High School with the additionof 9th grade,

and increased enrollment is now in need of this addition.

We've added 10 portables in the last 2 years

to accommodate growth.

An addition will increase the number of classrooms to 52 classrooms.

An addition to Lake Washington High School is part of the Lake Washington School District

bond measure, which is on the ballot on February 13th ballot.

Trump Imposes Tariffs On Foreign Washing Machines And Solar Equipment

On Monday, the Trump administration announced the imposition of a 30% tariff on foreign

solar panel equipment (cells and modules), and a 20% tariff on a number of washing machines.

Here�s how the tariffs will work.

The 30% solar tariff will will drop to 25% after the first year, then it will continue

to drop before eventually �phasing out entirely,� reports The Hill.

Additionally, �the first 2.5 gigawatts of imports each year are exempt.�

As for washing machines, NPR writes that the first 1.2 million imported will see a 20%

tariff.

Above 1.2 million, washing machines will be subject to a 50% tariff.

This too will �phase out after three years,� according to ABC News.

The impetus for the tariffs is a U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) decision made in

September which found that imports of solar equipment from other countries were harming

domestic producers.

The Trump administration�s tax reforms will accelerate global economic growth, according

to the latest forecast of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Total economic output for the world will grow 3.9 percent in 2018 and 2019, after adjusting

for inflation.

That would be the strongest year for global growth since 2011 and represents an upward

revision of 0.2 percent since the IMF�s forecast in October.

When the IMF released its Global Economic Outlook in October, it assumed that U.S. tax

policies would remain unchanged.

In other words, it assumed Republican efforts to pass tax reform would fail.

The changes to the U.S. tax code are expected to be responsible for �about half� of

the upward revision, the IMF.

Much of that will arise from lower corporate income tax rates.

The IMF estimates that lower rates will lead to an acceleration of business investment.

As well, a larger federal budget deficit will stimulate the economy and boost U.S. growth,

according to the IMF

A new CNN poll suggests that the tax reform bill which passed late last year has revived

Republican hopes of maintaining both houses of Congress in the 2018 mid-term elections.

According to the poll, the difference between Republicans has narrowed to just five points,

from ten to fifteen points before the wide-reaching tax cut passed.

Now, voters prefer Democrats to Republicans only 49% to 44%.

While the �recovery� is by no means complete � and support is not yet guaranteed � the

poll represents a significant change from the summer, when the GOP was struggling to

shore up the support necessary to avoid major losses.

Democrats are down 7 points from CNN�s previous poll, and Republicans are up 6 points from

the same, suggesting a major change in voter sentiment.

Patient Stories: Stephen | Aesthetic and Family Dentistry of Washington - Duration: 1:57.

Stephen: I've been coming here for seven to eight years, actually my whole family.

So I have two daughters and my wife.

We started at their old office and this is their new settings.

I love this place.

Light, airy, there's stuff for the kids.

And that's one of the first things I noticed when I got here the first time.

It's really well to do.

My last dentist, who was a lot more local to us, we had had him for a decade with our

kids.

He had old technology.

He didn't change his equipment around.

And it was just him as a one-man show and the pain level was a little higher.

There's a very cohesive team here from getting the phone calls for the appointments, for

the followup calls, like everything to the billing, it's all very cohesive, very seamless.

Well, I've had 30 to 40-year-old fillings replaced, the old silver fillings.

I've had a number of crowns done.

And then, when I needed a root canal, they actually sent me out to an oral surgeon and

they actually did a root canal through a crown.

And then I came back here and they redid the crown for me.

The whole experience was beyond my expectations because everything from walking into the office

to getting my teeth cleaned and then being able to actually 3D model a crown within a

short space of time and install it, and not have to wait for a week and have them put

in a temporary crown.

The ability to put on some headsets and watch TV, you know, while work is being done on

your teeth, all that I wasn't used to.

And so all that went above and beyond.

That's why we keep coming back.
