This week is Washington State PTA's Focus on Advocacy Week. Each day focuses on an over-arching theme.

• Monday, January 17 – Focus on dismantling racism
• Tuesday, January 18 – Focus on equity
• Wednesday, January 19 – Focus on mental health & wellness
• Thursday, January 20 – Focus on preserving funding
• Friday, January 21 – Focus on safety and emergency preparedness

WSPTA is asking members to act virtually throughout Focus on Advocacy Week. Each day will focus on an important part of the WSPTA platform. The best way to participate is by subscribing to the WSPTA Action Network so that you receive the daily calls to action for this week and periodically throughout the legislative session. You will be provided with easily customizable messages that the action alert system will automatically send to your legislators. It is easy to do and only takes a few minutes! 

The school administration has asked us to find four Morning Greeters every school day for the rest of the year! We'd love to see you there.

Greeters would help by opening car doors and/or school building doors. The most important aspect is to greet PK students with a smile and 'Good Morning!' to help start their day off right! 

We need four greeters a day, from 8:40a-9:10a. 

Greeters are required to wear masks and be a district approved volunteer. You can find out how to be an approved volunteer HERE at https://www.lwsd.org/get-involved/volunteering-in-lwsd
