State Audit Raises Alarm Over Marysville School District's Financial Stability

The Marysville School District is facing a severe financial crisis, according to a recent state audit. The audit, described as "rare and alarming," highlighted the district’s deteriorating financial health and raised doubts about its ability to continue operations. The crisis stems from a failed levy in 2022, loss of risk management membership, and declining enrollment. Despite significant budget cuts and state intervention, the district remains in a precarious position. Community members are calling for increased state support as the district struggles to maintain its educational services.

Fatal Street Racing Crash in Pierce County Claims Two Lives

A street racing incident in Pierce County led to a fatal collision early Wednesday, claiming the lives of two people. The crash occurred when a driver, reportedly speeding at around 130 miles per hour, ran a red light and struck another vehicle at the intersection of Canyon Rd. E and 160th St. in Frederickson, Washington. Both vehicles burst into flames, and the drivers were found dead at the scene. The collision also caused a power outage in the area, and investigators spent hours working to understand the cause of the crash.

Despite renewed U.S. and Arab efforts for a cease-fire, recent assassinations and entrenched political interests, particularly those of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, make an agreement unlikely.
