EDUCATION NEWS
- ➤ Northshore school board selected Justin Irish as its next superintendent on Wednesday night, choosing him from 32 applicants. He currently leads Anacortes School District and will begin his role on July 1—allowing the district six weeks for a smooth transition. Everett Herald
- ➤ Everett Community College will close its Early Learning Center that serves 71 children on June 30 because its funding is unsustainable—this decision may force families like student-parent Stephanie Henifin’s to find new child care options while the college shifts its focus to post-secondary education. The move comes after previous attempts to secure funds failed, leaving the center unable to cover a projected $300,000 deficit next fiscal year. Everett Herald
GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ Snohomish County Public Works will resurface 76 miles of roads this summer by paving 7 miles and chip sealing 69 miles to extend their service life—drivers using 140th Street NW/NE are advised to plan alternate routes due to single-lane closures along a 4-mile stretch. The work is part of a proactive maintenance program designed to reduce more expensive repairs in the future. Everett Herald
- ➤ Eight firefighters (the Snohomish Eight) are suing Snohomish Regional Fire and Rescue for alleged religious discrimination after the department denied their requests for religious Covid-19 vaccine exemptions and placed them on unpaid leave. The case was heard by the Ninth Circuit on April 3 and now awaits a decision (the firefighters want the case sent back for a trial on the evidence), which could affect similar cases. KUOW
