Show Notes

The district's sudden reversal on Highly Capable programming was the big news at the March 12 school board meeting, with strong commitments from Dr Torres-Morales for a definitive plan by April 1. Testimony also covered option school waitlists and the possible loss of the SPS LGBTQ+ program coordinator. Progress monitoring on career readiness, and an update on the upcoming strategic plan were followed by a fascinating Progress Monitoring training session run by AJ Crabill of the Council of Great City Schools. In community notes, we cover school board training being run by community groups. At a recent panel, one director panelist candidly advised: "If you have a high need to be liked, don't do this gig." It’s not too fun to be a superintendent either, and Superintendent Jones has announced his departure from Seattle Public Schools.
