As tragedy hangs over the district, it’s a difficult first day for new Seattle Public Schools Superintendent Ben Shuldiner.First and foremost, Shuldiner acknowledged the two teenagers shot and killed at a Rainier Beach bus stop on Friday afternoon.
“Last night I drove around where the shooting happened, parked the car, walked around in the rain, I could only think of the tragedy in our community,” Shuldiner said.“Things like single points of entry, things like cameras, things like fences, even metal detectors,” Shuldiner said.“The more that we do what our families want, which is to create safer buildings, it’s going to be super popular when kids and faculty feel safer,” he said. Shuldiner said the SPS budget has serious issues that need to be addressed as well. Last year, the district shared that they are facing a $104 million dollar budget gap. “What I think you will see is reorganizing of a district so that departments are now working together and see efficiencies will percolate,” he added.He tells us he will be in the schools, hearing from students and staff through the end of the school year, saying trial and error will quickly show what works. “These are the things we have to try,” Shuldiner said. “If they work, great; if they don’t, we will try something else, but what you don’t want is decision paralysis.”16-year-old Sultan robbery suspect arrested after police chase across Snohomish County A 16-year-old boy was arrested Sunday night after allegedly robbing a Sultan gas station and leading law enforcement on a lengthy police pursuit.Tickets for Noah Kahan’s Seattle show soar past $4,000A prosecuting attorney with the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office said thieves have shifted from catalytic converters to copper communication lines.As tragedy hangs over the district, it’s a difficult first day for new Seattle Public Schools Superintendent Ben Shuldiner.Chrystal Ortega's tireless dedication recently earned her the WSECU Community Champions Award and a $1,000 grant to further the mission.When Shawn Tibbitts opened Tibbitts FernHill, he was just trying to survive.
