Breaking news from the West Seattle Blog; Executive Director Aurora Lora is leaving the district. She's going to Dallas as an assistant superintendent. Her last day is July 6th.
That's one TFA gone (and I hear we lost another in HR).

Going to the Gay Pride parade? There an SPS float in it that will be decorated as a school bus.
The Board approved the change to the advertising policy and will permit it on school calendar, scoreboards, etc. Not sure where (high school only?) and when it starts.
From SPS (to update your calendar):
Seattle Public School employees will again take unpaid furlough days in the 2012-13 school year to help balance the budget and prioritize classroom funding.
Furlough days for teachers and other Seattle Education Association-represented employees include Wednesday, Aug. 29, 2012, and a half-day on Feb. 14, 2013.
Principals will take a furlough day on Jan. 3, 2013. Non-represented employees, meanwhile, will take Aug. 29, 2012, and Dec. 26, 2012, and upper management staff will take an additional two days on April 19, 2013, and July 5, 2013.
The John Stanford Center for Educational Excellence will be closed on Wednesday, Aug. 29, 2012.
