Friday Open Thread
Negotiations continue on for the new teachers contract and will thru the weekend. In another thread, someone suggested that maybe the district WANTS the teachers to strike to call attention to how badly this legislation was handled. Hmmm.In sad news, a 9-year old boy killed himself over bullying because he said he thought he was gay. What is troubling is how adults take that in a sexual manner rather than what it undoubtedly meant - he feels different from other kids. Many LGBTQ folks have said they felt that way from an early age but didn't say it.
I urge you to talk to your kids about differences among other kids and the need to be tolerant. I told my kids - you don't have to like everyone at school but you do have to be civil and tolerant. Otherwise, just ignore them if you don't like them.
Great article from the NY Times with thoughts from teachers and students about learning in these United States.
Remember when Superintendent Juneau said she was going on a listening tour? She wasn't kidding. One of her latest tweets:
Up early this morning with @SeaPubSchools school nutrition staff. My grandmother was a school cook for 28 years. My 1st job was working alongside her in the school kitchen. Nutrition staff will alway have a big place in my . Thx for all that you do for students! #SPSconnects
As well, there are several scheduled community meetings with her that I'll list in a separate thread.
Community meeting with Director Patu, tomorrow, Saturday, September 1st at Raconteur from 9 am-11 am.
