North and South Seattle Schools are separated by more than the Ship Canal Bridge. Test
scores, enrollment figures and levels of parental involvement set them apart.
Under-enrolled schools with mediocre to poor test scores are generally in the south end,

city. I wrote about this for Seattle's Child magazine, and later volunteered in several South
Seattle schools for a year.

I had little knowledge of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 until I met Helen Szablya.
She lived through the uprising with her husband, two children and newborn baby. She
made history come to life.

I spent a day with Benedictine Monks in Lacey, Washington. I left with this life advice
from Brother Joseph: "When you find a place where your joy is augmented and your
suffering is supported, that's where you belong."
