Dear Ambassadors,
Thank you for contributing to a fantastic board meeting last week. Ambassadors heard from former Seattle School Board Director, Dr. Stephan Blanford, and engaged in thoughtful discussion about gap closure and district governance. We are indebted to our fellow board members who asked probing questions and sought to discover practical measures community leaders can take to move the needle. Find Dr. Blanford's advice to community advocates
here. Find Dr. Blanford's recent Seattle Times piece in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

Winter and spring offer numerous opportunities to dive deep into the College's community embedded initiatives. Please save any compelling dates listed below or reach out to your Ambassador support team for tailored opportunities. Below, please find shareable content from the College and a spotlight on Ambassador Keisha Scarlett.
Finally, please take a moment to help us celebrate the life of beloved civic leader and fellow Ambassador, Ginger Ackerley. Ginger's influence and generosity helped move the College's best assets into poverty-impacted schools where the maximum good could be accomplished through collaboration. We honor her memory.
Thank you for being a champion for the College of Education!
Warmly,
Mia Tuan & Kimberly Mitchell
