Spring Fling!
We are thrilled to announce the PTSA is hosting a Spring Fling event for the kids this year! For some, this will be their first big event at the school during school hours on Monday, June 13th. This all-day carnival will take place during the school day. There will be plenty of outside activities for the kids to participate in, including carnival games, field games and an inflatable obstacle course! Be sure to send your kids in comfortable clothes and sneakers so they can be ready to run/jump/play. Kids will have opportunities to win various prizes and every kid will be sent home with a Newcastle Lions goodie bag.
We are still looking for a few more volunteers to help run the various events on the day of: morning (8:30am-11:30am), lunch (11:00-2:00pm) or afternoon (1:30-4:30pm) shifts. NOTE: all volunteers must be pre-approved to be on school grounds and pre-approval must be done annually. Access to the volunteer application is below: The link to sign up for the event can be FOUND HERE (please only signup once you are approved). We are also in need of a few items to borrow: Corn hole sets and a bubble machine(s). If interested in volunteering your time or have items to loan, please email Katie Green (katrina.s.green@gmail.com) and Alice Kim (aliceh.kim@hotmail.com).

Last PTSA Membership Meeting Join us for our last PTSA Membership meeting of the year as we vote in our executive board for 2022/2023! Principal chat to follow. School and Community News Issaquah Schools Foundation: Nourish Every Mind Each year, Issaquah Schools Foundation hosts Nourish Every Mind, an event to raise funds for all of the 20,000 students in our school district. Our goal this year is to raise $400,000! Donors like you, who understand the importance of investing in our students and our schools, will help us to re-imagine possibilities and bring our student's dreams to life! With your support, Issaquah Schools Foundation can continue helping our district’s students reach their potential by bridging the gap between the dollars the state provides for basic education and the funding our 26 schools need to ensure students succeed in school and are prepared for life. Issaquah Schools Foundation is a local organization that is singularly focused on the success of all students. We are an independent, non-profit 501(c)3 whose mission is to drive resources to help students district-wide achieve the promise of their potential.
