Our Vision: Achieve a whole-community approach of emergency management, set forth by the Federal Emergency Management Association, as it relates to our school communities throughout the Lake Washington School District. The whole-community approach is a concept that emergency preparedness is a shared responsibility, and calls for the involvement of everyone in order to attain a secure, resilient community.
Our Mission: To provide training, networking and support to emergency preparedness chairs from each school in order to encourage the PTA management of supplies, preparedness education, community engagement and facilitation of drills through building a relationship with the school principal.

Bring your children to join in the fun! We need your stories, we need your voice, we need you!
New Venue: WSPTA reserved space across the street from the Capitol at the United Churches of Olympia (110 11th Ave SE, Olympia) to network with fellow PTA advocates and hear from lunchtime speaker Chris Reykdal, WA Superintendent of Public Instruction.

We are encouraging members to schedule meetings with their legislators this day (even if you need to schedule remote meetings). It is important to reach out to legislators as soon as possible.
The event is free. Information on the venue and parking can be found here. Register today!
NOTE: A two-hour school delay on the meeting’s originally scheduled date, this meeting was rescheduled to Tuesday, Feb. 18, on Zoom.
The LWPTSA Sustainability Committee is made up of local sustainability chairs at schools across the district.

Sustainability Committee meetings for 2024-2025 will be a mix of in-person meetings at the LWSD Resource Center Sammamish Room (16250 NE 74th St., Redmond WA 98052) as well as online sessions via Zoom.
