Friday Memo October 28, 2016 This Memo Includes 13 Attachments Friday Memo October 28, 2016 This memo includes 13 attachments Dear Board members, As Larry is out town, in his stead we share these things. Good news: We were notified on Friday, October 21, for the first time in Seattle Public School’s (SPS) history, SPS has received the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the current budget from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). This award is the highest form of recognition in governmental budgeting and represents a significant achievement by our organization. Please join me in congratulating Linda Sebring and the rest of our great budget staff! Cascadia Elementary has been nominated in the Best of the Northwest survey by King 5 as “School with the Most Spirit.” Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) School of Distinction awards were presented Thursday at the Puget Sound Educational Service District (PSESD). The (11) Seattle schools awarded: BF Day Elementary, Broadview‐Thomson K‐8, Cleveland High School, Hawthorne Elementary, Hazel Wolf K‐8 STEM, Madrona K‐8, Olympic Hills Elementary, Rainier Beach High School, Rainier View Elementary, Viewlands Elementary and West Seattle Elementary. Parents, community members, local businesses and community organizations joined together with Kaboom and Target to raise funds for and then build a new playground for Beacon Hill International School. Prep work happened all week, and then TODAY, the kid-designed playground is being put up. This is a perfect example of our work as a community to strengthen partnerships with SPS in service of providing the very best for our students. Top Puget Sound Area Elementary Schools – The Puget Sound Business Journal looked at elementary schools across the region. In addition to test scores, they looked at the school’s racial diversity, economic diversity and teacher experience. Of the top ten elementary schools listed, Seattle had 6 of the 10: Olympic Hills (#1), Kimball (#4), Van Asselt (#5), Maple (#7), Wing Luke (#8) and Rainier View (#9). As I mentioned at the last board meeting Macklemore recently visited the Recovery School and the visit was filmed by MTV. You can view the interview with our students and the impact of the Recovery School at http://www.mtv.com/video- clips/cq4b5t/prescription-for-change-recovery-high-school Symetra Hero in the Classroom Award: Elizabeth Dolan, a teacher at Ingraham High School was recently named a Symetra Hero in the Classroom. Many of her students refer to her as a “bright light in the world.” Elizabeth was honored at a Seattle Seahawks game with a VIP experience, received $1,000 for school supplies, and was presented with a Seahawks jersey and Symetra Heroes in the Classroom certificate. Friday Memo for October 28, 2016 1 Community Engagement and Boundaries Just as we use simple guidelines for our work with students: An adult at school cares about me when I am gone. My teacher takes the time to get to know me. My teacher makes me feel included in class. Our Boundary adjustment work reminds us of that same need for our students’ families: My district cares about me and my needs. My district takes the time to get to know me. My district makes me feel included. The numerous boundary meetings have been a clear effort to engage parents and families in a difficult and often seemingly confusing set of issues. The juxtaposition of numerus boundary options has fostered creative and thoughtful work by many, many people. Themes have emerged about what people want, and what people think may work. Feedback from the community sessions and emails included these consistent themes: what to do with Cedar Park, what north end boundary changes to implement, and grandfathering. Certainly more topics are part of the conversation and need decisions such as the challenge of the Highly Capable Cohort (HCC) capacity in one current building, yet these three are the most spoken about with a high level of topic traffic. In front of the Board legislative meeting next week, I deeply appreciate the effort you have put into listening to constituents, to working on plausible solutions, all the while knowing that no easy solutions exist nor will everyone get what they want/need. Change is hard. Families plan, they build community and we want their schools to have a large role in their fabric of life. Then more housing is built, more families move, and we all face change. The question was asked by Director Peters and Harris: What is PSESD? Puget Sound Educational Service District (PSESD) is one of nine regional educational agencies serving school districts and state-approved private schools in Washington. Educational Service Districts, created by the legislature, are an essential regional delivery system for early learning and K-12 services in the state. PSESD is a quasi-governmental organization authorized by law to serve and support school districts. Educational Service Districts improve the quality, equity, and efficiency of educational programs through partnerships with school districts, early learning, higher education, and public and private organizations. Friday Memo for October 28, 2016 2 PSESD can save schools money through regional efficiencies, centralized services, pooled resources to Improve the effectiveness of educational programs Deliver specialized services otherwise unavailable Provide leadership for innovative and effective educational practices Build networks and partnerships among districts and other agencies Link schools with regional, state and national educational resources PSESD provides a myriad of ready to go services and can build customer requested special supports and services. Services include support and professional development around race and equity and other instructional programs and subjects, program and services reviews, school district fiscal support, legislative support in conjunction with 35 Puget Sound areas school districts, administrative reviews and safety training, just to name a few! An overview of other services and products can be found here: https://www.psesd.org/services/ . Because ESDs receive very little operational funding from the legislature (PSESD gets just over $500K per year), it operates as a not-for-profit business, needing revenues to support operations. PSESD charges for services provided, based upon school district client size and scope of work. Annual LGBT Family Dinner: The annual lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Family Dinner will be held Thursday, November 3 from 6-8pm at Washington Middle School. Thank you to School Board members that plan to be there to welcome LGBT families and their friends. All Seattle Public Schools (SPS) students, families and staff are welcome to attend. This donation-funded event is brought to you by the Health Education Office and the Office of School & Family Partnerships. Dinner and entertainment will be provided. To reserve space at this popular event, please RSVP with the number of people in your party to Lisa Love in the Health Education Office at 206-252- 0982 or [email protected].

Monday, 10/24- Michael Tolley participated in the Oakland Unified School District’s African-American Male Achievement Fall Forum where the group identified lessons learned to inform the City of Seattle’s black male achievement (BMA) initiative and other area BMA efforts, strengthening strategic momentum and collective impact for BMA locally, and relationship- and network-building among local leadership.

Some communication departments include journalism, while at other universities they are separate majors. Communication majors may go on to work in a wide variety of fields, including public relations, business, the media, and education. Here are just a few of the many professional careers that a communication major might prepare you for: • Print or broadcast journalist • Corporate communication specialist • Publicist • Fundraiser • Public relations officer • Social media specialist • Marketing or advertising specialist • University admissions officer • Human resources manager • Event planner How can I prepare at Seattle Central for a major in communication?
