Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom…
First, the Trump administration is trying to bring back the presidential fitness test. But PE teachers in Washington state are largely ignoring it.
Next, scientists are traveling all around Washington to figure out exactly what fish are living in rivers and streams. They’re using some high tech equipment to search out even the most “underloved” freshwater fish.
And finally, in the middle school that bears her name, Holocaust survivor Carla Peperzak celebrated her 103rd birthday last week.
