Thank You!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

We are so very grateful for the over 500 volunteers who donated time and talents to Salmon Bay this year.

The programs and events we do aren't possible without thousands of volunteer hours and you stepped up to provide those. Over 4,500 on-site hours, in fact. And that figure doesn't include the hours donated outside of school (coaching, auction planning, FOSB meetings, gardening, etc.).

We are especially grateful for the folks who are helping us finish strong in these final days ...
Field days and talent shows and promotions, oh my! 

You make our jobs fun and our students' lives richer.

Thank you,

Jodi and Kristina
