Rainy Day Rundown is your update on the latest happenings related to Seattle Public Schools. In this episode, we examine what systemic neglect looks like:

🔹 Restraint & Isolation – For the third year in a row, testimony reveals heartbreaking stories of students being restrained, isolated, and ignored by lawmakers.

🔹 Students Caught in the Crossfire – A shooting at the Bridges and Interagency School leaves vulnerable students in harm’s way, while district leaders remain silent.

🔹 February 12 School Board Meeting: The School Board votes on the superintendent’s contract (again), hears a detailed analysis of the enrollment study done by Strategies360, and has an emotional discussion on the future of the Highly Capable Cohort. 

🔹 Listener Feedback & Community Notes: We share what our listener community is talking about, including how executive orders on the federal level are being addressed on the state and district level, and option school waitlists.
