Hello PCMS families,
As we approach the beginning of Ramadan, we wanted to share options for our Muslim students planning to fast during this time. At lunches, practicing students may go to Room 2203 should they prefer a separate space to the lunchroom. Any students having concerns and/or challenges during this time can reach out to their counselor for support.
Ramadan Mubarak!

District
Report Cards for the end of trimester are live and available for parent viewing on Family Access. Directions for how you can access and view your student’s report card can be found on the district website. Blank translations of the report cards are also available on the district website in Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and Russian. Reach out to your student’s teacher if you would like more information regarding your student’s progress.
Strategic planning work proceeds this week, with a work study session prior to the regular School Board meeting as well as a regular session discussion item. The district is creating a three-year strategic plan that will identify specific goals, strategies for reaching those goals, and metrics to measure progress.
At this week’s School Board meeting, staff and board members will continue discussions about the 2023-24 budget process. The recommended reduction for next year is about $9.8 million, with 81% of that amount at the central Administration Building and Operations. A Reduction in Force (RIF) of certificated staff members is not part of the proposed reductions.
It’s kindergarten registration season! Do you live in the Issaquah School District and have a student who will be 5 years old by Aug. 31, 2023? It’s time to register your student for kindergarten for the fall of 2023!
