Seattle Public Schools
are in crisis.
It’s time to hold the leader of the School Board accountable.
Recall School Board President
Liza Rankin
Three Leadership Failures of SPS
School Closures
President Rankin is the architect of a strategy to close neighborhood and option schools, even when there is little to no evidence that it will save money or improve education.
Spiralling Deficits
By failing to perform basic oversight of the District’s financial planning and operations, under President Rankin’s leadership our schools now face a $100 million budget shortfalls our district faces today.
Missed Goals
Under President Rankin, SPS has failed to achieve student achievement goals in Math and Reading. Even worse, we appear no closer to meeting those goals than we did five years ago.
It Is Our Responsibility to Hold Our Leaders Accountable
We are seeking the recall of Seattle School Board President Rankin on the following grounds:
Advancing an unjust and unfair school closure process
Closing down community engagement and transparency
Failing to provide basic oversight of SPS
Failing to ensure SPS students meet goals for math and reading
