President's Message There is still time to meet for lunch and a visit with School Retirees from Chelan & Douglas Counties. |
|
|
If you have never attended one of our lunches, this is a great one to be first. We will also be having a program. We will hear from Jan Albin-Bullock – the counselor at WestSide High School. Jan also received one of our Mini-Grants this past fall. She will share some WestSide facts and tell us how she used her Mini-Grant. We will also hear from Shannon Weldy from Lee Elementary in the Eastmont District. Not only did she receive a Mini-Grant – but her students assisted with our Connections focus. We look forward to seeing you at our last meeting of the school year. Summer is just around the corner. If you have any questions – please send me an email. Kriss Crilly – CDSRA President “Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time." - John Lubbock |

Wine Donations Wine is not being collected to celebrate the end of the school year, although that sounds like a great idea. CDSRA is accepting wine donations for 2 different events. Please bring your wine donation to the June 13th Potluck, or contact an Exec Board Member for pick up. CDSRA will be hosting a table at the NCESD STEM Summit. Wine will be offered in several drawings for attendees. Non-members and members, please stop by and say ‘hi’ and to enter. If you are interested in helping at the summit, the in-person dates are August 15 & 16. The location is at the Wenatchee Convention Center (up to 28 STEM Clock hours available for purchase). The second event is for the WSSRA Convention that will be held September 12 – 14th. The wine is a PAC Fund Raiser. Support CDSRA & WSSRA with a wine donation. |
