Thank you for providing local news service to Kirkland through the Reporter. It’s especially nice to have since the Seattle Times dropped their Eastside bureau.

I encourage you to keep high standards for proper editing of content. It was terribly embarrassing to see “Thorough Elementary” on the front page!

I certainly hope that the school is “thorough,” but the school’s namesake should be spelled properly: “Thoreau.” I see that this has been corrected online.

There were other errors in the recent issue, such as “Fitness boot camp for Mom’s.” Eeek.
