Roosevelt High School

Continuing our series of schools within the Wallingford attendance area, here's a look at Roosevelt High School. Roosevelt High School (1410 NE 66th St.) is located in the Roosevelt neighborhood, just a block north of 65th and Roosevelt.  We include it in our school series because it is our attendance area high school; however, for those 8th graders in the Advanced Placement Program (APP) at Hamilton International Middle School, a new APP program will begin at Ingraham High School in September…

House Fire

Eagle-eye Shannon sent over some pictures she just took of a house fire on Corliss, between 44th and 45th, behind Kabul.  Seems like everything is under control and there was tremendous response from the fire department.  We'll let you know when we have more information to share.  Hope everyone's ok.   Update, 3/10:  We just received an incident report from the Seattle Fire Department.  Thankfully, this wasn't a fire, but excessive smoke caused by a previous fire lit in the home's…

OK, folks, you forced our hand. We're taking it up a notch. The last four times we ran the What in the Wallingford contest, eagle-eyed readers nailed it in a matter of hours (and sometimes minutes). So we're going to make it a little more difficult. This week's mystery photo is shown at right. As you can tell, we had a little fun with it, but it should still be recognizable. Also, to give everyone more of a sporting chance, instead of…

Baby Chick Season Has Begun!

We've had chickens for a decade, raising most from chicks. If you want to raise chicks, your season starts now: From this week through to the end of April the Bothell Feed Center is selling baby chicks.

Chicks are easy for the first month or so- you just need a box, a lamp, and some starter feed.…
