Downstairs at Town Hall, enter on 8th Avenue

Already in the 4th year of the district's latest strategicplan, are Seattle Public Schools working, or is it time for more reform? Voters have been generous in approving levies to support student learning, but are current resources being used as wisely as they could be? What can we learn from other communities and films such as "Waiting for Superman" about closing the achievement gap and creating an environment where every student can succeed? Join the conversation as Seattle Channel host C.R. Douglas leads a live televised discussion "in the round" with Superintendent Maria Goodloe-Johnson and other leaders from the school district, parents, teachers, students, and YOU. Electronic polling during the event will gauge responses from both thelive and online audiences. Seattle Speaks is produced by the Seattle Channel, CityClub of Seattle and Town Hall.
