a crank’s progress

Well, the Seattle School District came to its senses and took school closures off the table: it was clear to everyone else it wasn’t going to save any money — and might actually cost money over the long haul — and ran the serious risk of chasing families out of public school.

So now we get/have to figure out to how conquer the entrenched problems: financial mismanagement is a constant, from what I can gather, and the district seems to have lost sight of its mandate — education — instead focusing on properties and facilities issues.

But that’s a problem for tomorrow: after 4 weeks of frenzy, it’s time to take a breath.
