Three Seattle Public Schools-related notes tonight:

COMMUNITY CONVERSATION WITH YOUR SCHOOL BOARD REP: Leslie Harris, elected Seattle School Board rep for West Seattle and South Park, heard about a lot of hot topics during her first community conversation gathering last month (here’s our coverage). If you have something education- and/or district-related on your mind, you’re invited to her next one, tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon, 3-4:30, at High Point Library (35th SW and SW Raymond).

CHIEF SEALTH IHS SHOWCASE: It’s not the typical open house – Chief Sealth International High School is showing off its programs 6-7 pm next Tuesday (February 23rd). From principal Aida Fraser-Hammer:

The strong academics offerings – the IB Diploma, IB Career Program, Academies of Finance and Hospitality & Tourism, Spanish Immersion, UW in the High School, Running Start, etc. – and robust athletics opportunities – Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Baseball, Swimming, Golf, etc. – will be spotlighted. There will also be a showcase of special project opportunities for students such as ecology projects, career apprenticeships, international travel, and much more.

All are welcome.

FINAL LEVY RESULTS: King County Elections certified the February 9th election results today. Both SPS levies were approved with 72 percent of the vote. The final turnout in Seattle – 30 percent.
