Big Lots Competition

from Paul Dieter

This competition could mean a great deal to The Center School. It allows for multiple votes every day. I've voted 9 times today (Tuesday), not proud of taking advantage of some glitch in the website but I'm sure that's what the competition is doing as well. We're up against some schools with pretty big student bodies so we should try and get this out on our social networks as much as possible and keep voting through July 4.

Having Your Say

The Seattle Public Schools has extended the deadline for their survey on the district’s strategic plan -- if you haven’t yet participated, go to

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SPS_Strategic_Plan_Survey_Spring_2011

“The survey consists of 21 questions and will close on Wednesday, June 8th at 9:00 p.m.  Responses to the survey will remain confidential and anonymous. For questions about the survey, please email performance@seattleschools.org.”

Do you have an idea for a BLAST article?

We want to know what you know, and we want to know what you need.  Send us your specific content, or your ideas for content.  If you have Blast content to get out this week - please submit it by Friday at 3 pm.

Things we like to know:

School News, in and out of the building

Opportunities for Center School students (volunteering, classes, performances, etc)

Student, staff and faculty accomplishments beyond the school.

And the ever-favorite other stuff.

By now you’ve seen the motley collection of stuff that qualifies for the Blast -- if you’ve got something that fits that very elastic category, send it in.  Make sure you tell me what’s going on, where and when it’s happening, and how to get in touch with the people involved, if participation is the goal.  And let me know how long you think it should run.

To submit news, events, or calendar items to be included in the Blast, send an email with subject line "News" to submitarticle@csca.thecenterschool.net.
