Eckstein Burglars Wanted...Musical Instruments?

In yet another odd police report for SPS this week.  From SPD:

Three juvenile burglars arrested.  This morning at approximately 1:30 a.m., officers responded to Eckstein Middle School at 3003 NE 75th St to an alarm.

Officers arrived and contained the area.  Three suspects were observed inside with flashlights attempting to steal musical instruments.  All three suspects dropped the equipment and fled out of an exit door.

The suspects were taken into custody without incident.  They were fingerprinted and photographed.  All three juveniles were later interviewed and released to their parents.

Yes on 1240 - like your initiative, your comment makes no sense. You need an "is" there, somewhere, and either a question mark, a period, or an exclamation point for us to understand what the heck you are talking about.

As usual, the devil is in your details.

Uh, Yes on 1240...? Melissa cited the SPD, here's the link: SPD Blotter at seattle.gov She got it the same place the Times got it, and she cited. What is your problem, Yes on 1240? I'm guessing you're not actually affiliated with the Yes on 1240 campaign, because I believe they wouldn't be as juvenile...or as poor at grammar and mechanics. I mean, they ARE an education supporter..of sorts...

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.)

Breaking It Down: Where the District Might Close Schools

Update 2: an absolutely fabulous interactive map made by parent Beth Day (@thebethocracy on Twitter - she covers Board meetings and is fun to read).   end of update    Update 1: Mea culpa, I did indeed get Decatur and Thornton Creek mixed up. Thanks to all for the correction. end of update   I suspect some who read this post will be irate. Why do this? Because the district seems very hellbent on this effort with no oversight skid marks from the Board.    To clearly state - I do not believe that closing 20 schools is a good idea. I think they hit on 20 because they thought it might bring in the most savings. But the jury is still out on the savings because the district has not shown its work nor its data. I suspect closing schools and THEN leasing/renting them is the big plan but that means the district really has to keep the buildings up.   But this district, with its happy talk about "well-resourced schools" is NOT acknowledging the pain and yes, grief, that is to come fro

MEETING CANCELED - Hey Kids, A Meeting with Three(!) Seattle Schools Board Directors

 Update 2: So I have seen a message from President Liza Rankin on why she, Director Evan Briggs, and Director Michelle Sarju backed out of this meeting.  In a nutshell: - She says there was no organization to the meeting which is just not true. They had a moderator lined up and naturally the board members could have set parameters for what to discuss, length of meeting, etc. All that was fleshed out. - She also claimed that if the meeting was PTA sponsored, they needed to have liability insurance to use the school space. Hello? PTAs use school space all the time and know they have to have this insurance.  - She seems to be worried about the Open Public Meetings law. Look, if she has a meeting in a school building on a non-personnel topic, it should be an open meeting. It appears that Rankin is trying, over and over, to narrow the window of access that parents have to Board members. She even says in her message - "...with decisions made in public." Hmmm - She also says that th
