    Here is October 2025 OSPI CS newsletter (apologies for late posting) with info about the Elementary School Computer Science Survey and the CSforAllWA podcast announced in other threads.

    As one who is monitoring his blood sugar level, I do not agree with the sentiment in System Reboot: "you'll regret 100% of the fries you don't take"   I am almost the opposite but still grab a few from others' plate (with their permission) when the opportunity presents itself.
