Reopening celebration for one acre City Hall Park in Downtown Seattle. (Ryan Packer)

Summer is (finally) here for families with kids in Seattle Public Schools! In this episode, hosts Ray Dubicki and Natalie Argerious reflect on how we got to this late start to summer and look forward to what’s ahead. A great companion piece to this episode is Ray’s recent op-ed on Mayor Harrell’s vision for Downtown Seattle. Be sure to check it out.
