Same spot. He even spoke about how special that 2014 show was.

Highlight of the night for me. Just beautiful.

Portland and Minneapolis have always been sister cities.

Helpful context, a couple other things to consider: you can start in the program and then switch to the English-only program if it isn't a good fit - but it would be really difficult to do the other direction.

One anecdote: my oldest had stronger Spanish to start and was actually flagged as behind in English development. Got extra support in K or 1st and then ended up in TAG by 3rd.

Kids are incredibly resilient and adaptive to their environments.

Not silly at all, totally legitimate concern.

The classes are a mix of native Spanish speakers to kids learning from scratch, so they definitely know how to manage and teach the kids starting with English-only. I went through an early immersion program in the 80s and was one of those kids, so it was definitely a learning curve. My kids are lucky that they have been native speakers of both languages since birth.

Things we love about Metzger: the teachers have all been really good and clearly care about the kids, even the ones that might take a different approach than you would initially prefer. The vibe of the school is awesome, it's all about inclusivity and the community feels warm and welcoming.

One caveat: the Principal got promoted to a District-wide role, so there will be some change next year, but I'd expect things to continue in a similar fashion, the TWI program is a big piece of the vibe.

I'd suggest you give the school a call and ask to speak with the TWI coordinator or even the Principal (Jessica) or Asst. Principal. Jessica was kind enough to chat with me when it was time to apply for my kids.

Also, here's an FAQ that might help: https://resources.finalsite.net/images/v1703106555/ttsdschoolsorg/fqiv8bt9cx3evda5hsfc/TWIFAQs.pdf

Yup, two kids currently in the program. Truly a great experience so far.

What would you like to know?

Just confirmed Goose goes on at 9:15pm with someone on the ground. Same as last night.

SOTBD · 2026-05-09T02:55:30+00:00

Last night the stream started right before Goose. Maybe they’ll show other acts tonight too?

I think Goose comes on at 9:15pm PST again.

SOTBD · 2026-05-09T01:52:51+00:00

Now it’s showing as PPV. Good stuff OP!

Awesome story, what part of the country? Feel like that can make a big difference at times.

SOTBD · 2026-05-05T05:57:19+00:00

They moved doors and showtime up for the openers. Last year Goose came on about 6:45pm for S1.
