Dear Families

As we work together to create a supportive and respectful environment for our students, I’d like to kindly address an important matter regarding communication within our school community.

Occasionally, misunderstandings or incomplete information can lead to the unintentional spread of incorrect details about school events, policies, or even about individual students. While we know that everyone’s intentions are rooted in care and concern, it’s crucial that we ensure the information shared is accurate and reflective of the facts.

To help us maintain a positive and informed community, we kindly ask for your assistance in the following ways:

1. Verify Information: If you hear something concerning or unclear, please do not hesitate to reach out to the school directly. Our team is always available to clarify details or provide accurate updates.

2. Use Official Channels: Information shared through school newsletters, emails, our website, or other official communications is the most reliable source for updates about events and policies.

3. Exercise Caution on Social Media: Social media can be a wonderful tool for connecting with others, but it’s also a space where information can quickly become distorted. We encourage thoughtful and cautious sharing in these forums.

4. Model Respectful Dialogue: Our children learn from our actions. By fostering thoughtful and kind communication, we set an example for how to engage with others responsibly and empathetically.

We value the trust and partnership we share with you in nurturing our students’ growth and well-being. Your cooperation in maintaining accurate and respectful communication strengthens our entire community and ensures that our focus remains on supporting every child’s success.

Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of our school family. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me directly at: aclauson@steilacoom.k12.wa.us

Saltar's Point Elementary

They have huge eyes and a pouch full of egg yolk attached to their bellies. If you look real close you can see their hearts pumping through their transparent skin! For a few weeks they stay hidden in the gravel, living off their egg yolk. As the yolk gets used up, the pouch shrinks and then disappears. Scientists call this "buttoning up".
