The Olympic Hills PTA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, and our members decide how PTA resources are allocated to best serve all OHE students. Membership is not required to participate in PTA-hosted events and does not require a time commitment, though we're always happy to have more volunteers! Membership is $12 for parents / guardians and other community members. If you are unable to afford this, or have any questions, please email us at info@olympichillspta.org.

HIP Delivery Drivers Needed

We still need a few more people to help with HIP (Hunger Intervention Program) deliveries to Olympic Hills Elementary!

How it works:
Every Friday, HIP sets out banana boxes full of food for our school at their HQ at Lake City Presbyterian Church (a 7-ish minute drive from OHE). Volunteers collect those boxes and bring them to the school in the morning (between 8-10 AM). A second volunteer collects the empty banana boxes in the afternoon (between 12-2 PM) and brings them back to HIP HQ.


Time commitment:
About 1-2 hours a month, but the more people we have on our delivery team, the lower the time commitment! We will have a schedule where people rotate deliveries and box returns throughout the school year. There are no deliveries during school breaks.


This volunteer role does require a car with decent cargo room and the ability to lift banana boxes full of food (~20 lbs). If this is something you'd be interested in, we'd love to have your help!

Join Cub Scout Pack 338!

Looking for a fun, hands-on activity for your K-5 kid this year? Cub Scout Pack 338 is a welcoming, family-run pack right here in Northeast Seattle, based at Our Lady of the Lake School in Wedgwood.

Cubs make friends, build confidence, and get outside - hikes, family campouts, and weekend adventures all year long. They also build and race Pinewood Derby cars, launch model rockets, explore nature and conservation, and take on citizenship and service projects in our community - kids and grown-ups working together.

We meet Wednesday evenings at 6:30 at Our Lady of the Lake School (3520 NE 89th St): one all-pack meeting and one den meeting a month, plus at least one weekend adventure. Visitors are genuinely welcome, no commitment needed.

Kids of all genders in grades K-5 are welcome - from any school and any faith background - and families can join any time during the year. Learn more and get in touch at pack338seattle.org - we'd love to meet your family.
