ABOUT THE BRIDGE SCHOOL
The Bridge School is an independent, cooperative elementary school serving ages 5-11 (grades K-5). Located in White Center, WA. We are a small school of under 30 students with a close-knit, supportive school community. Our mission is to provide a progressive elementary program that fosters authentic learning through whole child development. We foster values of community, confidence, creativity and curiosity through interdisciplinary, multi-age, experiential learning in small class sizes. All students engage weekly in visual and performing arts, special topic enrichment classes, and regular school-wide community meetings. One full day per week, Outdoor Education Specialists take students’ learning outside our four walls and to Seahurst Park in Burien, WA. As a cooperative school, each child and caregiver has a role to play in building a strong learning community; families participate in all aspects of school operations, utilizing their unique skills both in and outside the classroom.

Been doing a lot of walking which has gotten my legs sore. Recommendations for someone in West Seattle to go to for a massage and see how that feels.
Topic: Where are the Efesis lovers?
I know Efesis took a hit when new owners changed it to Greek, and not very good Greek at that.
The good news is Hasan, who owns the building, is back at the helm.
We have gone several times and loved it.
And we have been one of just a couple of tables!
We went on a Friday night and there were only two other tables!
So, please if you liked Efesis in the past, give it a try, you won’t be disappointed. Support our local businesses.I find that I’m not drinking as much wine anymore so I am trying to find a home for some unopened 3-packs of Cayuse and Horsepower wine. All were direct allocations from the respective vineyards and have been cellared and carefully handled since delivery.
I’ve looked into some online consignment possibilities but with all of the fees and shipping logistics those options don’t seem so appealing. So I thought I might start locally. If anyone is interested just let me know and I’m happy to send along a list of what’s available.
Note: These are all $70+ bottles so serious inquiries only. And I will be securing an accommodation sale license from Olympia so that everything is above board.
