I am VERY disappointed at the lack of girls sports at the middle and high school level. More money is spent on the boys athletic clubs. They have already outgrown the high school that was built just several years ago. Only two gyms.....really? Academics are slipping, class sizes are 28 in primary and intermediate schools! Just a few years ago it was only 22-25! Too many boundary exceptions and people using "relatives" addresses so they can attend Hockinson. I wish there would be less boundary exceptions. Those of us who pay property taxes here deserve for our children to get the best education possible and others can go in the district they live in!
