Via Goldy, more Seattle schools are going to be closing for a week after the new flu bug was discovered in one of their students.
Yesterday my smallish/rural district sent home a letter to all parents detailing what they would do if the flu was discovered in our schools.
If this keeps up, I wonder if we'll be having WEA Rep Assembly in Spokane in two weeks?

I'm guessing, based on your comment, that you'll be at RA in Spokane. I'm going to attend for the first time (if we still have it).
Maybe we'll run into one another. :)
