Goodbye 5th grade! - Hello 6th Grade!
Can you believe that it has been 6 years and these kids are moving on to Middle School next year? No matter where they go to school, they will always be a Columbia Cougar! We can't wait to see the wonderful and amazing things that they do next! Congratulations to our class of 2031!
The Playground Got a GAGA Ball Pit This Year!
Mrs. Beiermann invited last year's 5th graders over for an afternoon of GAGA Ball because the pit was not in place in time for them to enjoy last year. There was a great turn out and the kids loved it. It was fun for everyone to get together again. Thank you to our PTA for supplying the tasty otter pops!
Camp Kindergarten - Aug 21
Give your child the opportunity to experience a small taste of what kindergarten will be like in a real kindergarten classroom!
The experience will be 30 minutes long. You will be greeted at the black gates to sign in. A volunteer will then lead you and your child to a kindergarten classroom, where you will briefly say goodbye! You will head to the playground area to chat with our PTA and mingle with other parents while your child listens to a story, completes a fun craft, and plays with their peers! When the time is up, your child will be led in a line out to you, where they will be allowed to play and explore on our playground with their new friends!
We hope that you are able to find a time slot that works best for your family’s individual needs. Please sign up as soon as possible; spaces are filling up quickly!

Lost and Found to Charity -June 24th
Unclaimed items will be donated to Clothes for Kids on June 24th.
Attendance Matters!
If you need to report an absence, tardy or early dismissal, call our 24 hour attendance line at 425-366-2605 or CLICK HERE to email us!
Please note that teachers do not always have the opportunity to inform the office that your child is going to be absent. Please include office staff on all attendance emails to teachers.
- Early Pick-Up
If your child will be leaving early for the day, families/guardians will need to send a note, email the teacher or call the office on the main line at 425-366-2600. (Avoid calling between 8:45-9:15 AM)
Please do not leave a message on the attendance line. Please avoid picking up during their scheduled lunch, recess or time with specialists, as it may take extra time to retrieve your student.
Only an authorized person may take a child from school. Any student being dismissed prior to the regular dismissal time must be met in the office and the student must be signed out by the parent/guardian or authorized person picking them up.
- Pre-Arranged Absence
Any absence not specifically covered, such as family vacations or other extended absence, must have a Principal approved pre-arranged absence form in order to be excused. This form must be completed and submitted to the school office one week prior to the scheduled absence.
