A Week in News: Two Themes Emerge — The ‘Hottest Race in Town’ & Follow the Money!
It’s been quite a week of local (and national) news coverage of my School Board race!
Here’s an overview:
Live radio interview/debate with Sue Peters and Suzanne Dale Estey on KBCS 91.3, hosted by Sonya Green (tune in at 4:09 p.m during “Music + Ideas”). — Oct. 15.
Disturbing developments from some of (my opponent) Dale Estey’s supporters, reported in the Seattle Schools Community Forum Blog (“Seattle School Board Campaigns – What Does a ‘Positive’ Campaign Look Like?”) (Oct. 14) andThe Stranger (“How Low Can You Go in a School Board Race?”) (Oct. 15)

If the Seattle Times Told the Truth…
It might look like this:
Sue Peters
Sue Peters has a solid track record in education advocacy, not only at the school level working in her children’s classrooms and schools for the past 9 years, but at the community level, with recent work on two district task forces, as a co-founder of the Seattle Math Coalition and the Seattle Education Blog, and at the national level as an education journalist and founding member of Parents Across America. Peters is the only candidate in the race with extensive, recent experience with the Seattle School District, and has researched and written about local and national public education policy for the past five years, as a professionally trained journalist with a Master’s degree in Communication from Stanford University. Peters has two children who have attended district schools for the past 10 years.
Instead of this.
DONATE! VOLUNTEER! VOTE! PASS IT ON!
