City Inside/Out: Seattle Schools 1/29/2010 On February 9, 2010, Seattle voters will decide whether to approve $712.7 million in school levies. Proposition 1 is a capital levy for $270 million, and Proposition 2 is an operations levy for $442.7 million. The 2 levies are not technically new; they continue previous funding provided by Seattle property owners, though the capital levy is bigger this time. How has this funding been used in the past, and what projects are they earmarked for, if passed? Don`t miss Levy 101, our background story which delves into Seattle`s school levies and why they are not universally supported. We also check in on the status of the Seattle School district, with an in-studio interview featuring Superintendent Maria Goodloe-Johnson, Seattle Council PTSA President Ramona Hattendorf and former Seattle School Board member Dick Lilly. |

City Inside/Out: Education Funding 2/6/2009 On this edition of City Inside/Out, we head back to Olympia for a conversation with new state schools superintendent Randy Dorn. He has proposed replacing the controversial WASL test, and we get legislative reaction to his plan. We also talk with state representatives Skip Priest (R-Federal Way) and Ross Hunter (D-Medina) about their wide-ranging proposal to overhaul K-12 funding in Washington state. Looming over these efforts to improve public education is the growing state budget deficit and the Governor’s proposal to slash $800 million in education funding. In-studio, a panel of education experts weigh in on what needs to be done in these hard economic times. Confirmed guests include Chris Korsmo, Executive Director of the League of Education Voters; Elizabeth Beck, President of the Shoreline Education Association; and Marguerite Roza, Ph.D., a research associate professor at the University of Washington's College of Education. |
