You must read the same blog I do, because you often do the same subjects as Educating Mom at the Seattle PI, only you're often a few steps behind her as is the case with your noticing the principal assignments, and the student assignment changes, and, and, and...

Those of us that dont read the "Educating Mom blog", thank you Beth for continuing to keep us all up to date and informed. Keep up your hard work, and ignore the criticism.

Interesting, it looks like Marni Campbell, principal at Eckstein is not moving.

Why would anyone bother to post this? I read Educating Mom blog and she does read this blog and posts topics from this blog as well. Also, both the principal topic and student assignment topic have been covered prior to Beth's posts, so what you post doesn't make sense.

I think it's great to have multiple blogs regarding SPS and I enjoy reading both of these daily.

Not that anyone here needs my defense, but I LOVE this blog. Each person who writes SaveSeattleSchools is well informed about what's happening in education. They're way ahead of me in terms of involvement too.

Remember, it takes a village - and at least two Seattle education blogs - to raise Seattle's children.

Thanks, Linda. I am so glad you have your Education Mom blog on the PI site. The more people around Seattle can learn about and discuss public education issues, the better. I really enjoy your writing.

Tuesday Open Thread

The speaker list is up for the Board meeting tomorrow; not as packed as I thought with just four people on the waitlist. The majority of the speakers are speaking on high school boundaries (with several wanting to talk about Ballard High). There are only three of us speaking about the Green Dot resolution asking the City to not grant the zoning departures that Green Dot has requested.  It's me, long-time watchdog, Chris Jackins, and the head of the Washington State Charter Schools Association, Patrick D'Amelio.  (I knew Mr. D'Amelio when he headed the Alliance for Education and Big Brothers and Big Sisters; he's a stand-up guy.)

Nepotism in Seattle Schools

Update: Following a scandal at Aki Kurose Middle School, apparently the district has pulled the principal, Caine Lowery who leaves Aki for a promotion to Central Office to support/train/guide principals. Hmm. I also note that former Rainier View Elementary principal Anitra Jones, who was removed from that school, still doesn't show up on the staff roster at Rainier Beach High School where it was stated she would be. Where is she? Who knows?  end of update   This is going to be a difficult post to write because it is sad to see what looks like a norm now at JSCEE. The norm I speak of is largely an occurrence with principals as well as JSCEE senior staff. I also know that this is not going to surprise most who works at JSCEE. The norm I'm referring to is the one where some personnel have personal connections within the district that sees them moving between jobs and even getting promoted based on those relationships. In short, nepotism.  This district is risk-adverse wh...
