Seattle Schools News for Week of Nov 12-18, 2018
Monday, November 12thNo school in honor of Veterans Day.
Please do talk to your children about the sacrifice of others for the country we have. Point out that soldiers have to do their jobs in all kinds of weather...including rain. It would appear from Trump's visit to France this weekend that Seattle kids are better prepared to be presidential than he is.
Here's the district's webpage for the upcoming district levies. One item I saw that might be of interest:
In January, the district will host informational meetings across the city. If your school is interested in a levy presentation or if you have questions about the EP&O Levy renewal, please contact staff at budget@seattleschools.org .If you are in PTA or a PTO, you might consider asking your group to NOT endorse the levies. Why? Because the district should understand the depth of unhappiness throughout this district. It feels to me like frustration and anger is rising among parents, no matter their issues. And passing levies that ask for over $2B is pretty heavy lift for any district and I would think the district would like as much support at possible.
Tuesday, November 13th
The previously scheduled meeting at Whitman MS about capacity management issues at Robert Eagle Staff Middle School is cancelled. Whether this is a good or bad thing remains to be seen. I do hope the district gets the message that this "divide and conquer with short meetings on big topics" will no longer work nor be tolerated by parents.
Here's the presentation from the meeting at RESMS.
Wednesday, November 14th
Regular Board meeting, starting at 4:15 pm. Agenda.
Looks to be a short meeting; not a single Intro item.
Highlights:
- Resolution about amount that can be collected via levies. I'll have more to say about this in a separate thread.
- Speakers list. I see very little that the public might comment on so I would say you could sign up to speak on just about any topic.
