Research shows holding students back a grade is more likely to harm then help. But grade retention is part of the model at this Seattle-area charter school chain... https://t.co/d3BLz07MaY The amazing @isolderaftery and @KUOWLiz edited this series.

Why my husband keeps bugging me to “take another [home] test!” into my second day with cold symptoms… and why I should stop rolling my eyes

IMPORTANT: RAPID TESTS DO WORK WITH OMICRON "But why are some people staying negative in the first days they have symptoms??" This is expected. Symptoms don't = contagious virus This is literally a reflection of the fact that vaccines are doing their job! PLEASE READ https://t.co/YBJvNovQXL

Most students in @SeaPubSchools preschool/elementary/special education intensive pathways whose families replied to district survey plan to return to buildings by April 5: 58%. Survey had 83% response rate.

.@SeaPubSchools and Seattle Education Association have reached a tentative agreement in their school reopening negotiations to bring back pre-K through grade 5 and students in special education intensive pathways by April 5th.

Of course, @SeaPubSchools' aim to start reopening 3/8 is contingent on first signing a deal with the union. I've seen kids cry in other districts when their parents promised them an (unbargained) start date that was delayed. Unsolicited parenting advice: Underpromise/Overdeliver.

.@SeaPubSchools has delayed its in-person learning plans by one week, to March 8th, due to its failure to reach an agreement with Seattle Education Association, its educators' union.

I have no comment about this flack's response to me "No, there is no comment/response on that or things like that. Please note -- this is not a 'no comment' where we are making an official statement of not commenting."

An ⁦Overlake⁩ Medical Center official said the hospital used email addresses they had on hand to jump the vaccine line... Major donors, for instance. Kudos to my former colleague ⁦⁦@sydbrownstone⁩. https://t.co/GhK6dzRti9
