Spectrum Thread
This was requested as finally some Spectrum parents are understanding that Spectrum is very much on the chopping block. Who knows? As we speak Shauna Heath and Michael Tolley may have already done away with it (it seems they will be creating whatever Advanced Learning will be).

It may be too late and trying to organize and get any attention in the summer is a big lift. But I would do it if I cared about Spectrum (no matter what its form at your school).

Washington State Charter Commission-Mtg #3
I am obviously way behind on this thread as the next Charter Commission meeting is this week.
It was held at the Technology Access Foundation headquarters in White Center. Very nice building and great staff. One of the Charter Commission members, Trish Millines Dziko, runs TAF and its programs.
