The experience I had at McKnight was the reason I hated school so much. As someone with a good…read moreacademic standing from middle to high school, I reserve the right to say that many of their staff were authoritative red guards and unqualified to teach. The rules are highly restrictive and the school has too many policies, resulting in rebellious and hateful attitudes towards the administrative staff. You're not allowed to use your phone at ANY time of the day including lunch and you are required to be seated at all times in the cafeteria. No student is allowed to carry a backpack or bag of any kind, so they are required to use their locker or carry by hand. You are not allowed to have bags or any school materials during lunch. Their programs are terrible and lacking in advanced STEM courses to prepare for high school. It's ironic how they hang up posters that display, "failure is not an option" because at McKnight, failure is on their agenda.

Now that I am back in the neighborhood, it was nice to come back.The best thing is that the senior pastor, whom I went to college with, still teaches from the Bible. They have grown along with the growth of the neighborhood. It's really nice to see some familiar faces, which demonstrates the stability of the congregation. They have 4 services, each catering to a different style of worship. The early morning Sunday service worked very well for us. Nice to be back!

I watched a livestream of the new lead pastor, Jesse Campbell and had the following notes to share:…read more Engaging and evocative sermon filled with immersive historical context that truly makes you feel connected to the people and places in the Word. I especially appreciate Jesse's nuanced and self-aware consideration of skeptics in his flock as he speaks and conveys some of the "unlikely" coincidences in the various books. Jesse's lighthearted humor and love for his family leavens the experience. Truly an inspired and talented pastor.

Terrible school system. Teachers teach to state minimum standards. So long as teachers have a…read morespecific percentage that pass the class quarterly they could care less about those left behind. It is rare to have found teachers that have compassion towards their job. Just like any other job those new in the field get so beaten down by the pointless burroccratic rules that they too after a few yrs become miserable husks of individuals. The renton school district leaves a ton of kids behind and they could care less. If you average c's or b's in this school system you'll pretty much end up struggling your whole working career because you did not gain enough smarts to go onto the more advanced jobs. Please consider college after high school. It opens up a whole new academia world and teaches you skills that you other wise would not of gained. Working with a high school degree can only get you so far in life. If you find a trade or field you are like really good in then you can go far. Do not feel sorry for your bullies. Just because you get the short end of the stick in your youth will mean if they continue that path they will get the short stick of the path in their adult hood. I keep crossing paths with many of my once upon a time bullies and: They struggle keeping employment, end up getting addicted to drugs that destroy their life, bounce from one relationship to another, have poor financial skills and often end up homeless alot. Don't feel sorry for your bullies. This is their path if they continue it. I keep crossing paths with one lady who is an absolute drunk and could care less about personal hygiene so she's sweaty and frumpy half the time. The other half of the time she can't even talk without spitting. I attended renton school district in my academic yrs and despised it. The only fun part of the school system was elementary school. Kids can be cruel and even cruller if you are low functioning, have any sort of physical visual disability or impairment be it visual or not. Kids are not held accountable for their actions and system fails to properly discipline those that deserve it. Middle school was so cruel to me that I blocked it for most of my life and can't even remember it. High school was okay but I felt abandoned in my studies. When I got to college I realized how little I really knew. I hate to say it but the school system needs to start teaching tolerance classes to society. Not just the you have a physical disability. It goes for everything else too: glbt group, being obese, nationality background, physical impairment.... If the state taught tolerance classes to kids these days I think society would be less arrogant and belittling towards these groups. I got beaten up a lot in middle school because of my disability being very noticeable. It got so bad my parents were considering home schooling. The school agreed to suspend the kids for 2 weeks assaulting me. Sorry but that's just a slap on the wrist. The kids parents didn't even take it seriously. If it were not for my parents assisting me in my academic studies I would of failed school or averaged c's and b's most of my life. I hate to say it but kids these days have too much of a controlled environment. I had food allergies growing up and knew not to eat this or that or be extra careful if I saw a kid eating a pbj sandwich. Kids these days are so damn clueless. No they have to have helicopter state parenting because the parents can't teach them these basic life skills. I work retail and have tweens entering the work force and have absolutely zero clue how to manage their food allergies because of this controlled environment. By 4th grade I knew which foods were a no-no. And I was low functioning more so then than as an adult. Math. I hate to say it but the school needs to teach all math levels to everyone. I am currently tackling the math program in college (later in life) and I'm finding just how much the renton school district screwed my math academia. Stop separating kids from "normal" level math into "advanced" math. There is zero reason for this b.s. Anyone can learn math. I hate to say it but Please teach kids cursive. Since when did the school system decide cursive was obsolete. B.s. You still need to teach it to kids these days as they will not be able to read important documents such as our founding father's documents. It is still vital. I can not tell you how frustrating it is to know how to write cursive at work and companies are considering people being cursive illiterate a disability. B.s. it's not. It's you dumbing down society.

I was going to the Worksource when a student whom I did not know was a high school student attempted to approach me. At the time I was smoking a cigarette. There needs to be in place a separate space for the alternative school kids the minor alternative school kids. There were at least over a dozen kids standing around a make shift awning smoking. It doesn't make for a great impression. These kids should not be in close proximity to the adults it just didn't seem too appropriate & I didn't feel comfortable.

Also lied to us in terms of how communicative they'd be about issues that arise, and the principal basically admitted that the staff had given me inconsistent info because they should've "communicated with each other ahead of time and worked on their communication" before talking to the parent. Basically, getting their lies together straight so that they can back each other up instead of being honest with what's really going on!
