Wonderful first day for Kindergarten! Mrs. Groshell’s class @VESHuskies, dad reading Roald Dahl’s Matilda to son @eaglesS_O_A_R_, first playground experience @AES_Otters, and Mrs. Willson with K’s first lunchroom experience @SwiftWaterSeals. @psd401 – at Gig Harbor, WA
Got to see some wonder EOY events around @psd401 this week as we put a bow on 2023. 5th grade Moving Ups and awards assemblies, and other celebrations…and we got some sun to kick off summer break!
Elementary Grad walks are one of the highlights of the year. @pad401 seniors return to their alma maters for a parade and Q and A in full cap and gown, and the kids love it! @Peninsula1947 pictured at @MinterCreek
Magical night @roadrunnerpride’s spring concert, the fabulous Julie Allison’s final concert after 39 years. Nobody has had more of a musical influence on my twins as Julie, and as a @psd401 admin I am grateful knowing there are 1000’s of others who feel the same. #supportthearts
Graduation season kicks off for me with Transitional Kindergarten at @GhVoyager: what a wonderful year with their outdoor focus - Mrs. Northstrom is a star! @psd401

Great events tonight around the district, including @VESHuskies STEAM night and @DESExplorers Celebration of Learning night. “I just can’t stop smiling” - Principal @delonna – at Gig Harbor, WA
