Scholastic Bookfair

 
Book Fair is coming Tuesday, March 23rd -through Friday the 26th during the SLC’s. We will be located in the lobby. The Lakota PTA will need at least 10 volunteers for us to be successful. Please contact our volunteer coordinator, Pennie Taylor at lakotapta@comcast.net to pick a 2 hour time slot. Times will be from 7 AM - 7PM the 23rd, 24th & 25th and on the 26th the fair will run from 7 AM - noon.

Be sure to bring spare change for our “One for Books” campaign. The money raised from this will purchase new books for our library. If every student brought in only 50 cents that would be over $380 and if every student brought in a dollar, we would have almost $800 to purchase books with.  Kids...clean out the couch and look in the car and let’s get our library filled!!


Family Partnership Office

The Federal Way School District is pround to have the Family Partnership Office, one of 6 models in the Nation to be selected by the Harvard Family Research Project (HFRP). 
 
Understanding the importance of parental involvement, Federal Way Public Schools promotes opportunities for parents to gain a greater understanding of how they can navigate the school system and become advocates for their children.
