Drop-off and Pick-up Reminders

These guidelines are meant to keep our students safe. Do NOT pass others while exiting or entering. Do NOT turn left out of the parking lot no matter how clear it may look, this will slow down the process. Please remember this line must keep moving. Drop/Pick-up and go!

Cougar Attendance Matters!

Did you know that just TWO absent days a month can make it harder for your student to stay on track? We care about your student's attendance! If you need support, please call us at (425) 366-2600. If your student is absent, please contact our 24 Hour attendance line at (425) 366-2605. Please include: Student First and Last Name, Date of absence, and Reason for absence. We will only return your call if we have questions.
