Friday Open Thread
Last day of school, always a mixed feeling. I have to smile looking at the window at this typical "summer" day for the last day of school.The district will be participating in the Gay Pride Parade this Sunday:
All students, staff, families, and friends are invited to join Seattle Public Schools in the Seattle Pride Parade on Sunday, June 24 at 11 a.m.
You can ride on the yellow school bus float or march alongside. We will provide snacks and fun items you can hand out to the crowd. Meet at the parade staging area on 4th Avenue early if you would like participate. The parade ends at Seattle Center where there will be a rally, music, food, and entertainment.
Surprised to see this but there is Work Session scheduled for Monday the 25th from 4:30-6:30 on BEX V.
I'll have a separate thread but apparently the Trump administration wants to merge the Department of Labor and Department of Education. Something about overlapping interests, cost-cutting but really, it's much more about aligning education to work.
Again, there is a huge difference between educating and training and we need education to have citizens who are not only productive but also able to have the skills to vote and participate in civic life. Not be told how to vote or who to vote for or what is real news or fake news but to be able to do those important items themselves.
Given the events of the past weeks on immigration, I don't believe a word being said by this Administration nor do I trust their motives for this merger (which Congress would have to vote for and I'm not sure that can be done).
The issue of meetings around union contracts being open to the public is discussed here in an article from the Tri-City Herald where that district's school board is going to vote in July on opening those meeting up.
Apparently other districts are considering this and one, in Pullman, has done so. Thoughts?
There are no director community meetings this weekend (and likely not again until August).
What's on your mind?
