Our 4th grade classes will be visiting the Steilacoom Historical Museum, while our 5th grade classes will enjoy a field trip to the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium. We also have our annual STEAM Gala coming up next week.

Does your student leave the house with items like a water bottle, lunch bag, coat, hoodie, or other belongings and not come home with them? Those missing items may be in our school Lost & Found.

Families are encouraged to stop by and check for any belongings that may belong to their student before the end of the school year. Once school is out for the summer, all unclaimed items will be donated to Caring for Kids, an organization that provides school supplies, clothing, food, hygiene products, and other essentials to children and families in need throughout our community.
