About this listen

In this episode of Rainy Day Recess, we dive into the Seattle Public Schools board’s May 21 special meeting. Hear the latest on the district’s 2025–26 budget proposal, which balances through one-time fixes and new state funding, but leaves the structural deficit unresolved. We also explore the ongoing development of interim guardrail metrics designed to hold the district accountable to its values of safety, equity, and community engagement. With the superintendent transition underway, the board debates how best to proceed with these metrics amid leadership changes. Plus, a note about the Rainy Day Recess podcast and ways you can get involved.
