 Congrats to Hawthorne Elementary:
For the fourth consecutive year, Hawthorne Elementary received the nationally prestigious John Hopkins University’s National Network of Partnerships Schools (NNPS) Award. The Hawthorne community is being recognized for their notable achievements in applying research-based approaches to strengthening and sustaining family and community engagement. 

NNPS commended Hawthorne Elementary as an “emerging national leader on partnership program development” based on their submissions of documented school-wide activities and engagement plans aimed at closing the achievement gap. 

Eight years ago, Hawthorne’s school enrollment numbers were low, and the school was designated for school improvement by the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), the state education agency for Washington. Schools identified in this way receive additional support from the state to enhance academic achievement and school culture. 

Hawthorne school business officer and head teacher Eileen Gray remembers that time well. “Because we were under a school improvement grant, we had to do things differently. We couldn’t just take a template and plop it on.” With the new vision to improve school culture and academic achievement, Hawthorne assembled a design team of staff, parents, and local community members. The top priorities of the team included strengthening family partnerships through the transformation of communication. Families received language specific notifications through robocalls, text reminders, hallway communication, school bulletins, and word of mouth.
The SPS Annual LGBTQ Families Dinner is Tuesday, Nov. 8 at Meany Middle School from 6-8 pm.

Superintendent Juneau had this to say in her most recent journal entry (partial):
Seattle Public Schools serves a diverse school community. We are dedicated to creating welcoming environments where each student feels safe and their differences are celebrated. Seattle Public Schools has a long history of supporting and advocating for LGBTQ students, staff, and families. 

We thank all those standing by us in our commitment to the success of every student in every classroom, every day. Our strength lies in the beauty of our diversity and we will continue to uphold our values of respect and dignity for everyone. 

To every transgender and gender-expansive youth, you are loved and supported. We see you and stand with you.
Horrific article from Crosscut about the rape of a student who attended Skyline High in Issaquah by two football players in 2014. While that act was terrible, what came over the next year was almost as bad.  It's hard to believe a school and a district that would allow sports to trump decency and common sense.  I hope the family wins big because there should be a huge smackdown for this kind of conscience behavior from people who work with teens.

The Washington State Supreme Court ruled yesterday to uphold the charter school law I predicted that would be the case but I'll have more to say in a separate post.
