Issaquah Special Education PTSA 2.6.13
Come learn about the Issaquah Special Education PTSA 2.6.13 — our district’s newest PTA! Members of their board will join us at our March 21st membership (6pm in the Briarwood Library) meeting to share what they’ve been up to in their inaugural year. This group is the first districtwide PTSA in Issaquah and it is focused on providing education, advocating for students, and building community. They aim to serve families, educators and students with disabilities in our district. Come learn about the group’s regular Parent Power Hour meetings, advocacy work, Facts for Families education campaign, and Ask the Experts video series.
It is an exciting time of year as the Issaquah School District begins to reach out to our community in preparation of welcoming the incoming Kindergartens for the 23-24 school year at their neighborhood school. The Issaquah School District offers full day Kindergarten at no cost to all students. If you have a child who will be a kindergartener for the 2023-2024, please visit the ISD New Student Enrollment website. Students who are turning 5 years old by August 31, 2023, are eligible for enrollment for the 2023-2024 school year.
The PTA is thrilled to announce the return of our annual auction MARCH 24th to MARCH 31st! Just like last year, we plan to offer art from students, as well as priceless experiences from teachers and staff.
New this year, we will have art donations from the community! This is an exciting addition to our auction, and we have a variety of art forms including paintings, photography, pottery, jewelry, textiles (like quilts/crocheted blankets) and even woodwork. Our community is so talented!
Additionally, some of our local businesses donated products, services, or unique experiences to show their support for our school!
The PTA is partnering with Briarwood to put on an evening event on Thursday, March 30 to celebrate the cultures and diversity in our community. We are inviting all Briarwood community members to participate in the planning committee for this event. The committee will undertake tasks such as organizing event logistics, booths, volunteers, and communications. The expected time commitment for the committee members is about 2 - 3 hours over the next 3 - 4 weeks. You do not need to be a PTA member to participate in this committee or event. We will host our first planning meeting on Wednesday, March 8th 7 – 8:30 PM at Doofers and you can RSVP here!
If you are interested in participating in this event to showcase your culture, but aren't available to be on the committee please feel free to sign up here and we'll be in touch with you soon.
