“It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength. We all should know that diversity makes for a rich tapestry, and we must understand that all the treads of that tapestry are equal in value no matter their color.” Maya Angelou, Author

Group photos

We will be having group photos for our different activities mid-March and need to have the lists for each activity updated.  Please make sure that you have given a list of students that participate in your activities by the first week of March.

Volunteers
All persons volunteering in your classroom MUST be a current Puyallup School District approved volunteer.  Please note approval takes time (about 1 week) and must be done in advance.  If volunteer is not approved, they will not be allowed to help, so PLEASE check with Barb before scheduling to make sure they are approved.
