Green Team Support
We need adults to help monitor the waste station during lunch. Our students are doing an excellent job of integrating composting into their lunch routine, but still need a little help sometimes (especially in the K-1 lunch). It’s a fun way to have lunch with your student and help our “Squirrels” achieve Washington Green Schools certification. Lunches are 12:25-1:10.

Get your walking shoes on and join us for Sand Point’s first annual Move-a-Thon on Friday, May 18th!
This is a fun and energetic way to help raise money for the school and engage students in physical activity. The money raised from this event directly benefits our students by funding improvements to our school playground!
Students will be grouped by grades and will get the chance to walk or jog as many laps as they can outside around the playground. The Move-a-Thon will be held during school in the afternoon. Parents, friends and family can sponsor students with a single donation (not based on time or quantity of laps completed).
Please use the Move-A-Thon Sponsor Sheet to track donations. Any amount helps, so please collect what you can! Submit all donations (cash or checks made out to SPE PTA) to your student’s teacher school on the morning of Friday, May 18th.
Additional information will be provided the week of the Move-a-Thon, so keep your eye out in Kid Mail.
Come on Squirrels, let’s MOVE!
