Wednesday, June 12: King County Parks River Safety Presentation:
The presentation will include important information about river safety, small group games and activities, and the opportunity for all students to try on life jackets. It will also incorporate the following key messages:
- Rivers are an important ecosystem in the Pacific Northwest.
- There are things in a river that are an essential part of a river ecosystem, but they can be dangerous to humans if humans don’t take safety precautions.
- Everyone can take basic steps to recreate safely in or around a river.
- Everyone should wear a life jacket when in or around a river.

I can’t believe that this is our last week of school. It has been my honor and privilege to teach your children. I have enjoyed getting to know your wonderful families.
The mystery word is appreciation.
With so many thanks for a fantastic year in 4th grade,
