Ingraham High Needs Our Support

 Via Facebook today from Friends of Ingraham High School:

From one of the Friends of Ingraham co-presidents, Trina Nonis:
 
 
At Friends of Ingraham we have been hearing from the community that people are eager to help and show their support. After the shooting and tragic death of a student inside our school building last Tuesday morning at the beginning of 2nd period, we have been struggling to understand how to best support the children and staff at Ingraham. We are now sharing with you an opportunity to show your support to our Ingraham family.
 
We would welcome and appreciate some POSTERS to hang up in the hallways at Ingraham, to show your support of the students as they go about their days at school. Our students feel encouraged when they see that they have the support of other school communities. Can you help make this happen?
 
We welcome messages like "JAMS loves IHS" or "Sealth is with you!" or similar positive and simple messages, in many languages. We welcome as many as you would like to produce.
If you can coordinate the making of posters and the supplies (butcher paper, paper bags, or cardboard from boxes work great), we will coordinate delivery with you and we will have our IHS volunteers hang up the signs.
 
We'd like to have them up this week, and will be accepting them every day this week.
 
If you would like to help us out by creating for us some posters with positive, supportive messages, please email friendsofingrahamhs@gmail.com and we can work together to coordinate delivery of the signs to IHS. We can pick up from you or you can bring them to IHS, but please make this plan with us ahead of time with us by emailing us. School staff cannot accept the signs, we have to have a volunteer ready to pick them up from you outside of the school.
 
Thank you so much - we are really hoping that many schools will want to show their love for our students, so they will have a reminder that they're not alone, that the entire Seattle community is standing with them."
 
In gratitude,
Friends of Ingraham

Just wanted to say thank you to UW admissions. I heard that they are allowing Ingraham seniors to request an extension till Nov 30th for their applications.

Im sorry to write this but things have been bad for years at Ingraham. You just have to watch Ticktock to see all the vicious fights, students flashing guns and weed smoking in the restrooms. If you really want to help Ingraham it starts will replacing the staff with adults in charge. That should be followed with a crack down on the problematic students. Until then why would any parent ever send their child back to that place.
