Help Make Senior Sunset a Delicious Event

RHS seniors have just a few remaining events left of their high school careers. Senior Sunset is a long-running tradition and gives them the chance to hang out in a chill atmosphere while enjoying the beautiful weather we are about to have. Please sign up to donate snacks/drinks to the event to make it even more festive. Donations can be dropped off in the front office in the box marked "Senior Sunset" by 9am on Wednesday, June 12.

We Need You – Join the PTSA Board

Our PTSA is still looking for some roles to be filled for next year’s board. Our highest priority is to find a President. Without a president, we don’t have a PTSA. The role of a president may seem huge but if you like being a leader, this may be the role for you. There is training to learn the official PTSA stuff and lots of other board members who will be there for support and guidance. The president position can also be filled with 2 people as Co-Presidents.

If you don’t think president is right for you, we are also looking for a Co-Treasurer, Family and Community Engagement VP, and a Membership Chair. If you are interested in joining our PTSA in any of these roles or would like more information, please contact nominations@redmondhsptsa.org.

Senior Breakfast Volunteers Needed

Help make graduation day extra special by volunteering to help with Senior Breakfast. Each year, after the graduation rehearsal, the PTSA puts on a breakfast for our soon-to-be graduates.

We need 10 volunteers between 9:30-11:30am on Thursday, June 13. Sign up here.       

All volunteers must be district-approved, so if you haven't already done so, please fill out the LWSD volunteer application here.

Our Grad Night Celebration is just days away and we still need a number of volunteers to help make this event a success. We are looking for overnight chaperones and male bus loaders.

For our chaperones, we will have vehicles to drive you to the arena, if needed, so you won't need to leave a car in Seattle overnight. There will be loads of food, fun activities, and luxury coaches all night long. Our parent volunteers make it ALL happen. For those with a future graduate, it is a great way to pay-it-forward and get a sneak peek into what Grad Night Celebration is all about!

Sign up here. All volunteers must be LWSD approved.
