Idaho County

and warm welcome. “Hello, Nick.” She puts me at ease. We both stand in front of the photographs, and she points where Kooskia City Hall should be. She then directs me to her office and points to a chair to sit down. It is not the most comfortable chair, but it will do. The name plate on her desk spells out Teresa Lytle. As I am sitting down, I notice the mahogany furniture and the marble desktop. “Very fancy,” I thought Brandt 2 for Kooskia. She also looks very professional with a blue and black pattern blouse, black slacks, and dress shoes. Her hair just right and with a little makeup. She smiles once again. Currently, Teresa Lytle is the Kooskia City Clerk and Treasurer. But she started her career at the county level. She worked as a secretary. When she left the county, she felt guilty because they had sent her on numerous training and she really did enjoy her job. Several things made her quit: the long drive to Grangeville, her family, and her elderly parents. Having her kids, husband, elderly parents down in the valley and driving every single day was tough. She quit and soon after got the city clerk job in Stites. It was part-time but fit her life well. She was the Stites City Clerk for five years. Her current position came up in 1998. She decided to apply because of the retirement and health benefits. She was thinking of the future. At the time my dad was the Mayor of Kooskia, and he is the one who hired her. She has been the Kooskia City Clerk for 19 years. As…

This led me to think that this book should be called The First Shot due to Danny firing the one shot that set the story in motion. This story portrayed its setting very well by providing examples of futuristic elements as well as real life locations such as Boise, Idaho. This book also included countless examples of surprises, both big and small, including my surprise when I saw what all Daniel’s one shot caused. Since this story was set in a futuristic time period, there were many items that…

Idaho Department of Labor’s website says that a Dietitian’s annual wage is $51,219. While the annual openings are few (about 9) the 10 year growth is much faster than average according the website (20.6%). It is considered to have a medium employment outlook of 306 in Idaho (idcis.intocareers.org). Some may say that that has its risk and disadvantages but I am passionate about nutrition and I know this is what I am supposed to do. Idaho Department of Labor has a lot of things that they advise I…

Ross Wiener suggests, in his “Teaching to the Core”, that states should not waste time and finances to develop new tools such as testing. The states have the opportunity to collaborate and share what already exists. Since the CCSS has been adopted in most states, a student is able to transition from one state to the next, with much more ease. (Rainey) For instance, math standards should be the same in Idaho as Massachusetts or Maryland. (Golod) Proponents of the CCSS argue that the standards are…

His gun accidentally fires and shots get exchanged where many protesters die. An outraged federal government demands for the names of the soldiers to be released as well as for Idaho to comply with the new law. When both demands are denied by the Governor of Idaho, tensions start growing and a civil war breaks out between the national military and the National Guard of Idaho. It shows how far a state will go to protect its constitutional rights when an oppressive national government goes too…

Other platforms that were held at various times include tax reform, reform voting to a popular vote, smaller salaries for politicians, and better representation. Rayner knew that if he could unite blacks under one party they could knock the Democrats from power. Despite the Rayners hard work for the Populist it the party did not…

The Snake River rises near the continental divide in Yellowstone National Park. The Snake River leaves Idaho through the Palisades Reservoir. When the Snake reaches Oregon it starts to flow north. This creates the border of Oregon and Idaho for 216 miles. The Snake River flows west and feeds into the Columbia River near Pasco, WA. Throughout the river there are steamboats going through the river, and railroads were built along the side. There is always a bunch of salmon coming through the Snake…

I hope all is well with you Emily. I talked with you over the last couple of month. I was having a hard time with the College of Western Idaho meeting my Reasonable Accommodations. I eventually got that worked out but it did not make me feel good going there anymore so I decided to transfer to a bigger school Boise State University because I thought that they would have more resources to accommodate me; I was wrong. Speaking to you put my heart at ease on the legal definitions and I could tell…
