Kudos for the Peninsula School District and Galaxy Theatre:
As I was driving to work this morning, I was pleasantly surprised while listening to the local radio broadcast of NPR. The Peninsula School District and our local Galaxy Theatre was given their own featured article of good news. If you're interested, you can listen for a short time to the audiocast here.

Key Peninsula Middle School, one five middle schools that received national honors last year for their outstanding science program, is once again highlighted. As reported by the Peninsula Gateway newspaper in a December article, science teacher Kareen Borders has taken the required assignment on space and brought it to life by opening the world of space travel and habitation for her students and others in the district in a real-time way and garnered the nod of “isn’t that cool” from our local media.
It has been a year since the grand opening of Galaxy Theatre. Their promise that in addition to featured movies and concerts offered, their commitment to the community that they joined has been astounding and very much real. You may know about their Monday Matinees—an opportunity to view the classics like “Some Like It Hot” and “the Good, The Bad and the Ugly” for $2.00. And afterward you can also go home feeling good to know that the proceeds are donated to the Peninsula School District. Did you also know in the current glaring economic spotlight highlighting “there is no free lunch” there is free Monday night Football at Galaxy?
The partnerships that we develop between local businesses that support and strengthen our community has been tremendous and uplifting to see. After reporting the depressing story of the Microsoft lay offs and the removal of the WASL program that our state has dropped untold millions into developing and implementing, I salute the individuals that make connecting young minds to real world developments. Not to be trite, but these chlidren truely are our future.
