Tolerance is as American as apple pie.

A brief exchange between a member of the public and the Edmonds School District.

Sorry, is there someone else, from whom I should have requested this document? I used to get these every two years from the Planning and Property Management Specialist. I was on a list.
Thanks.

In response to your request, you are correct in requesting the Capital Facilities Plan from myself. However, I needed to have additional copies made. It will be mailed to you today.

The District really should move this document online. For the very few people in the region that read the Capital Facilities Plan, it would be more convenient and cost-effective to keep it on the website. I would also recommend an illustrated version for board members so the concepts can become more clear to them.

Maybe each quad could be portrayed as an apple tree and the children can be the apples. When the apples become ripe, they fall from the trees and roll into the classrooms - where they are ravaged by hungry worms.

Editorial: Thank you to yet another contributor. This polite exchange seems so unlike the manner in which others were treated while trying to rent a public parking lot.

You are assuming that the "specialist" has the skills to be part of the new century and put documents on-line. Apparently it's a stretch to have her fill out the print request. Or maybe she had some help running the copier. Ohmygod. How will she get it mailed?
