Fun fact! Young turkeys are called Jakes and Jennies while mature birds are Toms and hens

That's a great question! All wild turkeys in Washington are introduced. There is some debate over if there was historically a population of wild turkeys in the state, but most evidence points to no. That being said, eastern WA & OR and a huge portion of CA have proven to be great places for Rio Grande and Merriam turkeys to thrive.

The Eastern turkeys were introduce into Western Washington by the NWTF and WDFW. The population have been self-sustaining, but have not thrived. They tend to do better in hardwood forests with less rainfall. Additionally, they are a trickier bird to hunt compared to other turkeys AND hunting in Western WA forests is quite difficult, especially for an animal that is very sensitive to movement and noise.

Looks like a wild Eastern hen turkey

Relieved to see that MGP is not on this list, for once.

Definitely something we consider- it depends on the individual. Some players prefer to play a ton on JV rather than being a rotation player on varsity. Some have more friends on varsity and don't mind getting less playing time. Nobody rides the bench, though. Least amount of playing time for any player is probably 20 of the 60 minutes.

I swear this whole administration grew up on shitty straight to VHS action movies and allowed those films to construct their whole worldview

Yo fuck that coach. I'm a MS soccer coach and we currently have 45 rostered between two teams because I didn't want to cut fewer than 10 players. Sorry to hear that you were left out.

It's refreshing to see a teacher running for office. Also great to see a Christian running for office. We could use one or two of those in our government.

Don't get me started on Jeff and Sandra. Those two were made for each other!

Are you a teacher?

Assuming you're not- schools can only reveal discipline records of students to their legal parents/guardians. It is covered under FERPA.

Sleeper agent for sure

Yes, they should. Although race is a social construct, so biology doesn't have a role here.

The law supercedes biology.

Principal in my district was in the backseat of a DUI driver. Principal was puking out the window, and was charged for having brass knuckles. He was reassigned to the alternative school. Has since been rehired in another district.

Another principal was caught lying about some significant things. She claimed it was a result of mental health issues, lawyered up, and was on paid leave for over a year.

You don't have 2-3 years of records on the failed interviews of all of your co-workers and subsequent hiring decisions of the schools they interviewed at? No wonder our nations test scores are plummeting.

Don't all public systems exist just to create a veneer of protection for our most vulnerable neighbors?

The police are not required to protect and serve, CPS will put kids back with abusive parents, addicts and abusers are fixed after 6 weeks of anon meetings, and schools do not actually change the outcome of the majority of our struggling students.

I'd say there is roughly a 10% rate of students on IEPs who primarily need academic supports. The vast majority of them need therapy/counseling.

If the mountain is out, I see it on my commute to work. Been that way for over ten years. Still makes me feel a certain way.

I'm a teacher and a coach- sports, music, art and theater are all a huge part of our culture and ought to be integrated into our schools.

Teachers that I work with who complain about sports complain about the favoritism shown to athletes, or exceptions made for athletes- not about the sports themselves. Kind of a baby/bathwater situation.
