Message from your PTSA President 
It was wonderful seeing so many parents at our General PTSA meeting and Curriculum Night this week.  We are so fortunate to be part of a community of parents and staff that care so much about our students.  Hopefully you were able to meet some members of our PTSA leadership team. 

At the PTSA meeting, we were able to approve our Mission, Values, and Goals - take a look here.   We really work hard to make sure the use of your generous donations aligns with our mission to serve the students and community of Eastlake High School.  Thank you for your financial support during our fall fundraising drive! Click here to donate.  

WOLF STRONG PACK STRONG!!

Julie Olson, 
Co-President EHS PTSA
