Seattle Education This Week
I was mistaken when I previously said there were no district meetings until August.
Wednesday
Audit and Finance Committee meeting of the Whole from 4-5 pm. The only agenda item is to debate any last issues on the budget for 2013-2014 and presumably move it forward to the Board meeting.
Public Hearing on the 2013-2014 Budget
Your opportunity to weigh in on any topic in the budget. If you have a real concern, it really is important to get it on the record. You may sign in to speak starting a half-hour before the hearing.
Special Meeting of the Board from 5:15-6:00 pm
Just one action item - voting on the new budget. They will be taking public testimony so there are speaking opportunities for any topic.
The City Council will be debating and voting this week on whether to create a separate fund for the money from the school speed zone tickets.
So if these are about safety around schools and the City wants to help the district, here's a couple of things:
- fund crossing guards. The City used to do this and then cut it. The district funds
