Members of the board include our principal, head teacher and other staff, elected parents, volunteer coordinators and community representatives. General members include YOU!

Our John Hay Partners PTO would like to share the results of our online auction efforts, extend our gratitude to those that donated and worked tirelessly, and share some opportunities to continue to spread goodwill and connect with our community.

The John Hay Partners PTO would like to extend our deepest gratitude to our John Hay community. Our online auction came to a close on March 31.

We thank everyone that was able to participate and help us move toward our fundraising goal for the year.

Hello John Hay Families, 

WE MISS YOU! We hope all is well with each one of you and your loved ones during these trying times.  Last week saw the implementation of the district curriculum and resources made available. This week, OSPI also made a statement indicating there will be upcoming changes on the topic of what learning will look like remotely, so expect more.  The quote from Heraclitus is where we are today as educators and parents, “The only constant in life is change”!

Background
About COVID-19
Along with many areas around the world, Washington state is experiencing an expanding outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus (COVID-19). This virus can spread from person-to-person and the number of detected cases is growing. Several schools have closed operations in order to prevent further spread of the virus. The resources in this guide are intended to help parents, guardians, and families understand the school’s role during a closure, commitments to students, and what making days up at the end of the school year looks like.

Do you have a spare iPad, cell phone, laptop or other device that you could donate during our school closure?

Please email: Angela Clement (amclement@seattleschools.org) or Tami Beach (trbeach@seattleschools.org) for a no-contact pick up and thank you for considering!

YOU DID IT!!!

After logging the last few Annual Fund drive forms that came in this week, you have now raised a total of $92,094 for our kids!

This is a RECORD amount for the Annual Fund and an amazing start toward our annual fundraising goal! Visit our Annual Fund page for more details.

Thank you ALL for your support!!

This fall, Seattle Public Schools has made a change to the username students use to log on to district digital tools such as The Source and the student portal. This change will enable students to keep their same username until they graduate!
