Message from the Directors
Dear Rainier Families,
Starting Monday, August 5, our office will be located at the new campus (located in the portables on the south side of the Mt. Pleasant High School campus - access by Marten Ave). If you need to turn in forms or have questions, please stop by during office hours: weekdays from 8am to 5pm.
We have a Facilities Work Day scheduled for Saturday, August 3. Many hands make light work, so come out and join us. Please RSVP for the August 3 Work Day on this list. We will be getting the insides of the classrooms ready for the school year. There is more information with the Items that are needed for the day. This is another work day scheduled for August 24 and we will schedule them periodically during the school year to keep our facilities in shape. There will be NO Math session held on August 7. Our staff will be in Professional Development next week. Our Summer Mixer will be held Saturday, August 10 from 4-6pm on the Tahoma campus. It will be a joint Rainier/Tahoma event. Bring the whole family for games, activities and a raffle to kick off the year! New Student Orientation will be held from 9am-noon on August 12, 13 and 14 on the Rainier Campus. This is mandatory for all new students to attend. The first day of school for all students is August 19 at 9am.
School events are listed on the PIVOT calendar.

We also encourage parents to join us at the monthly PIVOT meeting - our next meeting is August 8 at 6:30pm.

Please join us on August 10 from 4-6pm for our Summer Mixer. This is an event for new and returning Summit families to mingle and get to know each other. It will showcase our vibrant community, different committees, student clubs, and various events that take place in our school year.

Please sign up to bring something or staff one of the booths on the Summer Mixer Sign Up List. We would love for all families to bring an appetizer or dessert to share.
