School furloughs: Is there a better way? | Letters
How is it that a state Legislature can trumpet no education cuts in the recently passed budget, and how is it that the collective memory is so short that the hard-cold fact of impending furlough days for the next two school years is forgotten by most?

Connection to Federal Way commercial | Letters
Jeff Stock and Lamar Neagle have another very definite connection that would make a great story. My father, John Duggan, was Jeff Stock’s soccer coach on the Norpoint Royals as a youth and my father, John Duggan, is Lamar’s uncle. You could create a great human interest story here. My mom, Kathleen Duggan, was also Mother of Year from this area in the ‘80s.

Not only does the public want and deserve more information before they are asked to vote on funding for a replacement high school, but Federal Way Public Schools need to look at long-term bond funding, not a short-term levy.
