Tuesday Open Thread
From KUOW:Young people who are detained by law enforcement in King County can no longer waive their right to an attorney on their own.Another story of interest from KUOW, this on the use of police in schools:
On Monday, the King County Council unanimously approved a motion meant to ensure that young people in custody are fully informed when deciding whether to talk to law enforcement. The new ordinance requires kids detained at the Juvenile Detention Center in Seattle to get advice from an attorney first.
Police are handling routine discipline issues in many Washington schools – sometimes even arresting children — finds a new study from the American Civil Liberties Union of Washington. The ACLU-WA found that 84 percent of the state’s largest school districts have police officers patrolling the halls, even at the elementary level in more than a quarter of districts studied.
The ACLU-WA also found that police are more likely to be stationed in schools with more students of color and in low-income neighborhoods. That's relevant because researchers found that students were more likely to be arrested for regular discipline issues if police were based at their school.
"It is actually a crime under Washington law to intentionally disturb or disrupt a school,” Hernandez said. “We think that that crime should never be applied against students. You shouldn’t be arrested or prosecuted for misbehaving in your classroom.”That last statement gives me pause because, in the course of attacking a teacher or other student physically, the attacking student could be charged with assault AND "disrupting the class." Maybe that law needs to be clarified. The ACLU is urging revisiting this law.
Circling back to the subject of resilience, a very compelling conversation with actress Sally Field and ballerina Misty Copeland in the New York Times.
Funny story from the New York Times on "the coolest kindergarten class in the world."
What's on your mind?Since 2010, the Pestalozzi Foundation has operated from inside the stadium — literally inside, not next door or across the street — offering families perks that are most likely unique in the world of early childhood education.The kindergarten borrows the stadium’s field, tunnels and roof for group activities. Players from the team come by to read to the children. Teachers use the arena’s main stand as a sort of giant break room. And on match days, parents clamor to reserve a spot to watch from the prime vantage point of the kindergarten’s deck, within shouting distance of the rowdy southern stands.Dribbling, here, had two meanings.
