All School Announcements
Message from Dr. Breuder:
This weekend I, along with a couple other AAPI (Asian American Pacific Islander) school and district leaders, presented at the iGrow Washington, Leaders of Color conference. This conference was hosted by AWSP (Association of Washington School Principals), and this was an opportunity for leaders of color to come together and collaborate and learn about leading with equity and inclusion in our organizations. It was a full two days of learning, but it was inspiring to work alongside other leaders of color across the state and learn from some incredible leaders across the country.
Community Conversation: Please join us for an online meeting to hear about the budget changes and impacts for the 2025-26 school year. Admin will host a meeting on Teams on Wednesday, March 26th, at 5:30pm. Here is the Teams link for this meeting. Hazel Wolf K-8 Community Conversation 3.26.25
