It’s hard to believe we’ve reached the end of another school year already, and yet here we are! We’re counting down to the last bell, and our Pacific Northwest weather (finally) got the memo – SUMMER IS HERE!
It’s been a busy year for the PTSA, with lots of impactful projects, positive partnerships, and moments worth celebrating. To share with you some of the amazing school- and community-facing initiatives that have happened over the past 10 months, we’ve created an end of year newsletter.
Join us for a peek behind the scenes at what’s been achieved, thanks in no small part to the generous contributions our Wolf Pack Families have made this year – not to mention the village of volunteers who donated their time and energy to help at every stage of every project. We couldn’t be more proud of what has been accomplished.
Here are some of the best bits – read the newsletter for the full scoop!
