A Victory for Common Sense

In a lawsuit against the Seattle School District, King County Superior court judge Julie Spector concluded that "...there is insufficient evidence for any board member to approve the selection of the Discovering Series", and directed the Seattle School District to reconsider their decision.

The Seattle Times is encouraging the Seattle School District to comply with the court and not file an appeal. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/editorials/2010995832_edit08mathbooks.html


This lawsuit is great news to students, parents, and concerned citizens of Issaquah. In our fight to stop the Board of Education from going down the same failed path as Seattle, this is a powerful tool in our favor.
