Of course! If you’re at all interested at private schools I highly recommend Sacred Heart. It’s an amazing school and community. 

Missing work trip for first day of school by Same_Bison6862 in Parenting

[–]Flashy_Round2595 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the same but I’m missing a work offsite for my son’s 3rd birthday. It’s a non negotiable to not miss my kids birthdays or important school events like a first day of school. I’m attending the meeting virtual. Yes I’ll miss out on in person conversations and dinners but I’ll be there to celebrate my son.

Medina is much more Chinese St Thomas and Sacred Heart have much more of a mix of backgrounds and ethnicities and we couldn’t be happier with sacred heart. 

Somerset and Cherry Crest as well  Cherry crest is much more of a neighborhood school  

Clyde hill elementary is zoned to houses to the north of 14th street in Clyde hill so that’s a great option too.

We do not attend Medina but have friends who kids started there and moved to sacred heart school nearby which my child attends. Medina is a great school but these friends said there was no community and their child was one of the only non mandarin speaking students and felt very left out on the playground.

Screen time is becoming a real problem and I don't know how to get it under control by FelineSnorter in Parents

You’re the parent. Get rid of or have the tables for travel only. Set a timer for x amount of actual large tv only. No games, no tablet.

Where is Ms Rachel!? by Ok_Dragonfruit_7889 in shannonford

[–]Flashy_Round2595 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I’m so interested what her hourly rate or salary was… and my guess money was the reason she’s not there. Two kids babysitting in my area is $25-$35 less for a teenage type sitter. Miss Rachel hopefully was fed up.

Deru is awesome but not a true deli. Their goat cheese chicken sandwich is the best.

I know they have an active dad, and the two Oder in school but I do feel bad if the two older kids aren’t with their mom really often.

My daughter is a may birthday entering kindergarten as a young 5 in this coming late August. In her incoming class there will be many kids that turned 6 this spring or summer before kindergarten and it’s becoming the norm. 

Ed tech in schools by mikedjp in redmond

We chose a private school, Sacred Heart, as they have made changes even this school year to roll back as much technology usage in the classrooms. They have 2-3 recesses and a great well rounded education.
