@heatherturner.bsky.social Fyi!

My son’s team is playing in the WA cup today and the Sounders play LAFC. Nervous for both! Excited for a day of ⚽️

Just spent the past two days with other school board directors from across the state. Feeling hope and optimism and appreciation for the laws and policies in WA state that help us focus on children.

Scenes of academic absurdity in times of scarcity, during our faculty meeting yesterday we were told not to throw away any garbage in our meeting room because otherwise we'd be charged for it (in other words pay custodians).
