And I got this from 5th Avenue theater today:

The 5th Avenue Theatre Seeks Five Pint-Sized Powerhouses!
Audition for Oliver! and Secondhand Lions
Saturday-Sunday, May 18-19
At Alderwood and Southcenter Malls
The 5th Avenue Theatre is searching Puget Sound for five charming, charismatic, and extremely talented kids to join the casts of two of the 2013/14 season musicals: Oliver! and Secondhand Lions. An additional 30 talented tykes and teens (ages 8-15) are being sought to fill a variety of ensemble parts for these two shows. Children being considered for Secondhand Lions may even have the opportunity to fly to New York and audition for Broadway producers and the Tesley & Co. Casting Agency (SMASH, Annie, Newsies, Wicked).

KISS FM’s Jackie and Bender are joining forces with 5th Avenue Theatre casting directors to hear youngsters sing their hearts out. If your child is high-drama, high-energy or just a natural-born star, this might be his or her chance to shine!
AUDITIONS
Alderwood Mall - May 18, 1-3 PM (3000 184th St SW, Lynnwood)
Southcenter Mall - May 19, 1-3 PM (2800 Southcenter Mall, Tukwila)
Auditions are first-come-first-serve, with a limited number of slots available. We recommend arriving early to reserve your spot in line.

As an aside, the 5th Avenue expects child performers to keep to a fairly grueling schedule, so only consider this if you are prepared to give up two months or so of your life if they made the cut. There is very little time left for school, friends or family.

There is no better place to learn than The 5th Avenue Theater. You will work hard and grow in ways you never thought possible. The schedule is demanding but then again so is real life. The only part you can't get is the one for which you don't audition.

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...
