Today, Governor Inslee announced that all Washington State school districts will remain closed through the end of the school year.  It is important to focus on our students and their needs during this difficult time.  The Puyallup School District will stay the course and provide continued learning, childcare for our health workers and first responders, and our weekly student meal program. 

Last Thursday we had over 14,000 students log into our student learning management system and access activities, resources, and assignments.  In addition, 1,111 teachers and 1,422 parents/guardians logged into our student learning management system.  Our meal program has been serving on average 1,800 students per day with both breakfast and lunch.  Today, was our first day of serving 5-day meal packs, we doubled our estimates and prepared and served 3,650 students with breakfast and lunch.  Our need exceeded this estimate today so we will increase production for next Monday. 

Again, we know this unprecedented school year is not what anyone expected, especially for the graduating class of 2020, but with our collective effort and community support, we will provide the best continuous learning opportunities as possible.  We are also working on alternative graduation ceremonies for the class of 2020.
