Hillary Clinton to Visit Rainier Beach High School on Tuesday

Update: this event is not sponsored by SPS; they are just renting the space to the campaign (or sponsor) of the event.

end of update

Seattle Schools announced that presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, will give a speech at Rainier Beach High on Tuesday night at 8:15 pm.  Doors will open at 6:15 pm.



I'm glad Secretary Clinton is making this stop as I'm sure there are many supporters who want to hear her speak.  It might also draw attention to the shabby building that students and staff use every day.  (Also, RBHS is a lot smaller than Key Arena which Bernie Sanders packed on Sunday.)

The Clinton family has a busy day tomorrow with Secretary Clinton making a labor speech, then going to a meeting with tribal leaders and then a private fundraiser before finishing her day at RBHS.  Former President Clinton and Chelsea Clinton will also be here at various events.

She's the most corrupt presidential candidate in my lifetime. Read about it in today's Seattle Times: http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/times-watchdog/as-hillary-clinton-bolstered-boeing-company-returned-the-favor/

As Secretary of State, Hillary charged $450,000 in direct payments to her family and millions more in donations to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for her support. Will her price go up when she is President? What happens to the people without the means to pay?

As Secretary of State, she charged $450,000 in direct payments to her family and millions more in "donations" to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for her influence.

Will her price go up as President? What happens to those without the means to pay?

Washington state Democrats should demand that she publish an updated price list for her services as President before our upcoming caucuses, so that we know what we are getting.

I like a lot of Bernie Sanders' ideas, but don't think he'll be able to accomplish very many if any of them. Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan and the rest of the obstructionist congress are not going anywhere. It's like his agenda is this:

Run for president
Make a lot of huge promises
????
Revolution!!!

Yeah, no.

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, gr...

Education News Roundup

From the ever-amusing Washington Policy Center : Vouchers are Pell Grants for students under 18.  Vouchers are no different than Pell Grants or GI benefits, except the money goes to the families of students younger than age 18.  Except they are. Pell Grants were created to help needy students and that's not really the goal of the voucher program.  The Pell grant website does have a couple of great studies on why low-income students drop out before finishing their higher ed and what makes a difference.
