Dear Students and Staff of Saltar’s Pont School:

On behalf of the many families and individuals who rely upon the We Love Steilacoom Association to supplement their food budgets, WE THANK YOU, for your very generous donation in March and April of over 2,500 food items with an estimated weight of between 1,200 and 1,300 pounds and your ongoing support. I plan to use these items along with others in our Saturday distributions at the food bank and in the food bags distributed in coordination with the Steilacoom Historical School District schools.

It will be interesting to see what 2025 brings. With COVID-19 and the impacts of the various variants, reduction in SNAP benefits, discontinuance of many of the COVID-19 relief programs, and continued inflation, increased numbers of individuals are requesting assistance at the food bank/pantry. Your donation will help ensure that we are able to provide this assistance in their time of need.

Thank you again.

Sincerely,

Paul Loveless, President

We Love Steilacoom Association

Dear Families,

This Friday, we will be conducting a Shelter in Place Drill as part of our ongoing commitment to student and staff safety.

A Shelter in Place Drill is a safety procedure used to protect students and staff from potential dangers outside the building, such as hazardous materials in the area or severe weather. During the drill, all students and staff will remain inside the building, and outside doors will be secured. Normal activities will continue inside the classrooms, but no one will be allowed to enter or exit the building until the drill is complete.

Please know that this is only a practice drill to help ensure that everyone knows what to do in the unlikely event of a real emergency. We appreciate your support in helping us maintain a safe and prepared school environment.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

If you have questions or concerns regarding the transition to middle school that you would like addressed at the May 8 Incoming 6th Grader & Parent Night please use this Google Form.
