I think it’s been a couple months since we first posted about the new readerboard that was planned for Enterprise Middle School. They finished the concrete base and then … nothing. And more nothing. Until I drove by today and saw that the sign is finally up. It’s a little smaller than I expected, and [...]
Getting Ready for School
by Matt McGee on August 30, 2010 in West Richland Schools, West Richland Sights
Today was “meet the teachers” day at Wiley Elementary. We took our youngest over this afternoon and it looked like half of West Richland was there! Kids are in school starting tomorrow — please drive safely around all school areas. Well, drive safely everywhere, actually.
Enterprise Middle School Getting a Readerboard
by Matt McGee on July 23, 2010 in West Richland Schools
If you were driving along Paradise Way within the last week, you may have seen some heavy equipment and a few workers on the front lawn outside Enterprise Middle School. My son tells me they’re putting in a readerboard. Looks like the first step is done — this concrete foundation has been finished for a [...]

by Matt McGee on December 8, 2009 in West Richland News, West Richland Schools
Cari was turned around this morning when she was dropping off our son, Sean, at Enterprise Middle School. A couple teachers were in front of the school alerting parents that the school had no power or water. Other homes in the area of the school were also without power, we’re told, but we don’t know [...]
Winterfest 2009 at Enterprise Middle School
by Matt McGee on December 2, 2009 in West Richland Schools
With our son now up in 6th grade and at Enterprise Middle School, we had our first chance to experience the school’s Winterfest program tonight. They started it just a couple years ago, I think, and it’s become the main fund raiser for the school. We skipped the early part of the event — dinner [...]
Richland School District needs a new bus route policy
by Matt McGee on November 7, 2009 in West Richland Schools
Did you catch this story last week about a “mixup” involving a Richland School District bus and some students from Tapteal Elementary here in West Richland? In short, several Tapteal students didn’t arrive home via bus at their normal time last Monday. They had gotten on the wrong bus, and the bus driver wasn’t answering [...]

- Tri-City Homes Hit Their Highest Average Sales Price in 2011 February 1, 2012What an interesting year! No federal tax credit, record-low interest rates, and a booming Tri-Cities economy combine to create an fascinating picture. Two seemingly disparate facts tell the 2011 Tri-Cities real estate story. #1 – Total sales for the year – 2,734, which is the second lowest total within the last ten years. (The lowest […]

- Building Our New Home, Part 8 January 23, 2012My husband, Matt, and I are building our new home. This is the eighth in a series of who-knows-how-many. I’m writing from the perspective of a buyer, and an agent, since I am both in this case. We had two important walk-throughs last week and the week before. On the 11th, we met with the […]
