Has anyone realized that Nyland has a history of turning low performing schools to the federal government? Of course, he happened to be standing with the Chamber of Commerce.

Unless HCC gets it's own campus, it seems inevitable.
I'm also curious about the Lincoln situation. Don't they have to be out for the Lincoln refit, yet their new spot at Licton is not going forward due to the heritage designation. Where are they going and when.
I'd also like to know if anybody has an idea of Nyland's feeling about HCC. Since it looks like he may be the next superintendent, he's going to be overseeing any changes in HCC. WHat did they do for gifted students in Marysville during his tenure?
As regards blending the cohort, how is it working at Fairmont Park and are students being blended at JAMS?

Where/when did she say this?
-here's hoping
The Landmarks Preservation Board included no controls in their designation of the Wilson-Pacific campus. What that means: The existing structures can be demolished and the new elementary and middle schools built as planned.

Do you happen to know if there's any progress on planning for HS capacity issues that are likely to hit in the next couple years, before Lincoln reopens?
