Dear Ambassadors,
Our January board meeting will be special!
Per your requests, Dr. Stephan Blanford will join us for a conversation about the challenges and opportunities facing Seattle Public Schools. Four years ago Dr. Blanford won a seat on the SPS Board with 89 percent of the vote. His discoveries after joining the board led to his decision to push for change externally. Dr. Blanford will touch on Seattle’s 5th largest-in-the-nation opportunity gap, the role that community leaders like you can play in addressing it, and field your questions. Get a head start by listening to Dr. Blanford’s conversation with Ann Dornfeld on KUOW
here.
Our next board meeting is Thursday, January 18 at 12 p.m at El Centro de la Raza (2524 16th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98144).
