Cherrydale Primary School

We want to thank our Cherrydale PTA, families and students for such a wonderful week of kindness and appreciation! The delicious meal on Thursday and the various gifts and sweet treats throughout the week brought smiles to our faces. You all are what makes Cherrydale a great place to be!

We have 22 more school days left! These last few weeks are important, especially as 3rd grade testing begins next week. See Looking Ahead below for details.

Each spring we ask parents to complete an Intent to Return Survey to let us know your family’s intentions for the next school year. By completing this survey, you are helping us plan for future staffing, supplies, class rosters, and curriculum. We have a 75% response rate so far but we need 100% participation! Please take a moment and let us know if your Cherrydale student is planning on staying in the Steilacoom Historical School District, whether at Cherrydale or moving up to Saltar's Point. Thank you for your cooperation!
