Yeah, if I were on the Highline school board, I probably wouldn't like the letter of support. On the other hand, if the board knew/approved, she's not too far out on a limb. The issue of not mentioning the lawsuit is stretching pretty far, too. I don't know what school district anywhere discloses all the lawsuits that might have major impacts on them to all prospective students. Lord knows the SPS one would be a long list.

An easy place to recruit Highline kids. Bet in fact it is part of Sierra's strategy to fill the school. Bus up the White Center kids. That means a loss of Highline funding. Highline can't fund the schools it has. <br /><br />NoCharters<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-76239764496793419592016-03-29T13:26:26.606-07:002016-03-29T13:26:26.606-07:00attachment is not showing upattachment is not showing upAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
