This and That
Hey, the Alliance for Education had their Roaring Twenties fundraiser: What a wonderful night we shared on Saturday and what a powerful statement of support to the more than 52,000 students in Seattle. You contributed over $400,000 to support students in our public schools - wow! This is by degrees a significant increase over the past few years and yet another compelling testatment(sic) to the generosity and commitment to high quality public education that exists in our community. Thank you! Well, it's great that they are still saying they want to give to Seattle Schools but I wonder how? (Oh wait, the first face I see on their photo roundup of the event is...Don Nielson. Never mind.) Really good piece from Seattle Education by parent Carolyn Leith on the possible raise for Superintendent Nyland. As we at this blog have all seen, from the past two school board elections, counting your chickens before you count all the votes is a bad idea....
