Sumner High School ASB hosts Benefit Night
Join us for a very special talent show to benefit fifth generation Sumner resident and Sumner High School graduate Julie Moltke. Moltke was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer-- so rare, she's one in a million! The ASB-sponsored event will raise funds to support Julie and her family with medical costs.

Moltke is an active member of the Sumner and Sumner High School communities. As a high school student she was involved in many activities and served as ASB vice president. In the community she has continued as a leader, serving as the president of the Sumner Historical Society.

Benefit Night features a variety of performances by students and community members, making for a fun evening of entertainment and laughter for the whole community. Choose to make a difference and show your support for our local community member.

Come cheer on the Bonney Lake and Sumner High schools Special Olympics basketball teams and benefit our community! Thirty-five Special Olympics basketball players will participate in individual skills competition and play a full team game at each of these Pack the Gym events.

Admission is free; canned food donations to benefit local food banks are encouraged.

Bonney Lake High School Gym

Special Olympics athletes are students with disabilities or special needs. All athletes are either current students within grades 9-12 or in the district’s Community Transition Program, designed to help these students “transition” out of the school and into a more independent lifestyle. The program focuses on employment readiness, independent living skills, and other skills that students need to function and live more independently in the community. Students who have graduated from high school are eligible to participate in the program up to 21 years of age.


Changes to 2011-12 School Calendar: Snow Make-Up Days
At this time there have been 4 days of school closure due to weather. The current school calendar includes 2 days for weather make-up in May.

  • May 25 and May 29: SCHOOL DAYs for all students K-12

The additional 2 make-up days have not yet been scheduled.


Skylert Notifications
The District and all schools now have capability to send notifications about attendance, general messages and emergency alerts by phone, e-mail or text messages. All families should log on to Family Access to update their contact information and select preferred messages. Families will choose the phone number to which general and emergency messages will be sent (home, work or cell phone), with additional options for the message to also be sent by e-mail or text.


Preparing for Winter Weather
Winter weather brings road and driving conditions that might result in school delays or closures. Safety for your child is our primary concern. When winter weather impacts specific areas of the district, Limited Bus Transportation service areas may be announced. We try to make information available about school closure or changes to the school schedule by 5 a.m. Families should remember to check the Web site or call the District Hotline at 891.6001 for updated information about school operations.

 

From the Principal's Desk

I wish to thank all the students, staff, parents, and community members who supported our annual Food Drive, the Community Dinner, the toy drive, and our Winter Wishes program. Each of these events positively touched the lives of those within our school community and the communities of Sumner and Bonney Lake. Each and every person who was able to contribute or volunteer their services participated in one of the greatest gifts of all, serving others. During these difficult times, I know that the acts of  kindness and dedication to others touched lives more than we may ever know.

All of us at Sumner High School wish you the best of holiday seasons and a very happy new year.

Bill Gaines, Principal
