A quick note of appreciation for your support and patience as our team worked through all of the firsts for Tamarack. The first arrival, dismissal, drills, recess, lunch, open house, school wide assembly and much more. We had a great turn out last Thursday, thank you for attending. It is a gift to serve you and we look forward to many more opportunites to celebrate our community!

Coming soon...school zone lights on Kinnaman and Reed! Please be cognizant of your speed when traveling to dismissal by car. As you likely have noticed, we have a lot of family pick up; walkers and drivers. Your patience and attention to safety is appreciated particularly as we enter the rainy season. We have stationed a crossing guard at the crosswalk in the parking lot. Please use the crosswalk when walking with your children even to your parked car. We truly appreciate it, we have some solo student walkers and bike riders and want to ensure a safe route home for everyone as best we can. Thank you!

Please join me in our cafeteria for coffee or tea! Bring your topics, questions, ideas-an informal opportuntiy for me to share news and events and for you to learn more about Tamarack! This will occur on the following Thursdays at 8:05 to 9am. Hope to see you!

October 12th, November 16th, January 11th, February 15, March 21, April 18 and May 23rd

Mark your calendar for the 2nd Thursday of each month (unless otherwise noted) beginning October 12th at 5:30-6:30pm in our Library. Please consider signing up to become our President, VP, Secretary or Treasurer. The goals of this group are to provide feedback to the Principal, raise funds for the school & plan events/socials for our community to gather. This will be a low stress, community driven group of parents/caregivers who want to LOVE & SUPPORT Tamarack. Special thanks to Amanda Schreiner, Tamarack mom, who has supported getting the group set up and moving forward. Now we need your help!

You should have recieved an email, regarding CSE lessons for 23-24SY, you will also receive a letter in the mail soon. If you have any questions, don't hestitate to email or call. It is your choice to opt your student out of all, some or one of the lessons. We work hard to create a supportive enviroment delivering developmentally appropriate lessons focused on safety. As a parent/guardian, we encourage you to learn more about our K-12 Comprehensive Sexuality Plan and teaching materials.
