School Information
Challenge
At Sneak-A-Peek this
year, you will receive all
the information that
parents generally
received on enrollment
day. There will be
information from the
district, a school
calendar, a parent guide
for Washington, along
with many more tools to
help you navigate the
2017-18 school year.
However, we also
welcome you to call and
ask questions along the
way. (780-7730)
Principals/ Counselors
Last year, our Principals
challenge was related to
using our social skills
throughout each day, and
students were rewarded
for their efforts. We will
continue with this
tradition; however, we
will call it our Counselors
Challenge. The principals
challenge this year will be
more academically based
and setup to help
students understand how
to set, work towards and
achieve goals.
