We’ve designed our district and school pages to be an informal, quick information source about our school district. We welcome participation and look forward to interacting with people through this channel. We want the experience to be as positive as possible for all of us. So here are some simple and, we think fair, guidelines for participation. We will delete personal attacks, inappropriate remarks or profanity on our page. Our pages are about the Snohomish School District or a particular district school, so let’s keep the conversation focused on that. Business plugs, personal issues, political banter all have a place on Facebook - just not on our particular pages. Avoid spamming. Posting the same or very similar comments repeatedly, flooding posts with excessive comments, or sharing unrelated links and promotional material is considered spam. Spam disrupts the conversation and may be hidden or removed to maintain a positive space for all users. Be involved. We welcome your feedback on our postings, and we hope you’ll comment when something grabs your attention. If you have ideas on what you’d like to see included on our page, we would love to hear from you. And we hope you will encourage others with a passion for education to find us and follow us here on Facebook. It’s best to contact principals, teachers, staff members or the school board privately. Our pages will share lots of information but won’t be equipped to forward messages to particular people.

Our next stop in our school leaders’ backpack series takes us to Cascade View Elementary, where we’re getting a peek inside Ryan Painter’s backpack and learning a little more about the person behind the principal’s desk!

• If your backpack could only hold three things for the school day, what would they be? Laptop, water bottle, and snacks.

• What’s your go-to snack during a busy school day? Anything that you can hold and eat on the run .

• What’s your favorite school event or tradition - and why? Back-to-school week! There is a special energy on campus at the beginning of every new school year.

• If you suddenly had a free hour during the school day, how would you spend it? Join recess or PE to spend time playing games with students.

• What’s something about you that students might be surprised to learn? My hair color is dark brown.

• What do you enjoy most about being a principal at Cascade View Elementary? I love being a part of a school community of staff, students, and families all sharing the same goal of creating passionate life-long learners!

Cathcart Elementary and other elementary schools across the district welcomed a special guest last week – author and reading enthusiast John Schu!

With plenty of energy, enthusiasm, and animated storytelling, Schu brought books to life as he shared stories from This Is a Story, Lily-May's Joyful Day, This Is a School, and dozens of other popular favorites. He also signed snd gave away books adding an extra special touch to an already memorable visit!

Thank you for sharing your passion for reading and reminding our young readers that stories matter and there's joy to be found in every book!

Fall learning is in full swing at Cascade View Elementary where kindergarteners are getting their hands dirty in the best way!

Earlier this year, Cascade View students helped plant seeds, water, w**d, and care for the school garden as it grew. This week, kindergarteners got to enjoy the fruits (or should we say pumpkins!) of that hard work!

From feeling the hard outer shells to discovering the gooey, stringy insides and scooping out seeds, these young learners got an up-close, hands-on lesson in all things pumpkin!

The Cascade View garden is more than just a place to grow vegetables. It's an outdoor classroom where curiosity grows, hands get messy and students experience the joy of planting and harvesting something together.

A Snohomish Tradition Like No Other: The 67th Annual Serpentine! There’s nothing quite like Serpentine!

Each year, Snohomish High School’s entire student body parades through the streets of Snohomish, bringing Panther pride to the heart of our community.

The tradition extends far beyond the halls of Snohomish High. Elementary and middle school students, future Panthers themselves, join in the spirit by decking out in Panther gear, while alumni and community members line the streets to cheer on the students. It’s a wonderful reminder of what makes our community so special, bringing together current students, future Panthers and generations of Panther alumni to celebrate a beloved tradition!

And the celebration continues tonight! The Panthers take on Cascade High School at 7 p.m. at Veterans Memorial Stadium, with a fireworks halftime show expected at approximately 8 to 8:30 p.m.

Once a Panther, always a Panther!

Creativity, engineering and a little personal flair were on display this week at Centennial Middle School! Seventh grade students in teacher Chad Steinbaugh’s engineering, design, and manufacturing classes were hard at work this week designing and creating their own personalized phone stands. From stands with built-in spots for Tech Deck fingerboards to designs featuring engraved pets, initials and more, students put their creativity and problem-solving skills to work to make something uniquely their own!

As our Disney-loving Totem Falls Elementary staff demonstrated earlier today, earthquake safety is no fairy tale!

Today (October 15) at 10:15 a.m., students and staff across the district joined thousands of others throughout Washington for the annual Great Washington ShakeOut earthquake preparedness drill! From classrooms to offices, everyone practiced the three important steps to staying safe during an earthquake: Drop, Cover, and Hold On! The Great Washington ShakeOut is an annual reminder that a little practice today can make a big difference when it matters most.

According to information from Great Washington ShakeOut, in most situations, if you feel shaking or get an earthquake alert, immediately:
• DROP where you are, onto your hands and knees. This position protects you from being knocked down and reduces your chances of being hit by falling or flying objects.
• COVER your head and neck with one arm and hand. If a sturdy table or desk is nearby, crawl underneath for shelter. If no shelter is nearby, crawl next to an interior wall. Stay on your knees; bend over to protect vital organs.
• HOLD ON until the shaking stops.

Under shelter: Hold on to it with one hand; be ready to move with your shelter if it shifts
No shelter: hold on to your head and neck with both arms and hands.

Or adapt to your situation. If you have difficulty getting onto the ground, or cannot get back up again without help, then follow these recommendations:

If you use a cane: DROP, COVER, and HOLD ON or sit on a chair, bed, etc. and cover your head and neck with both hands. Keep your cane near you so it can be used when the shaking stops.

If you use a walker or wheelchair: LOCK your wheels (if applicable). If using a walker carefully get as low as possible. Bend over and COVER your head/neck with your arms, a book, or a pillow. Then HOLD ON until the shaking stops.

Today we're stopping by Riverview Elementary to get to know assistant principal Shareene Mossburg a little better!

• If your backpack could only hold three things for the school day, what would they be? If my backpack could only hold three things for the school day, I’d bring: A full coffee travel mug to help bring the energy, Ticonderoga pencils since they’re the best writing utensil, and my laptop.

• What’s your go-to snack during a busy school day? An apple or some Milk Duds and a Diet Coke. One healthy snack cancels out the mediocre snack.

• What’s your favorite school event or tradition - and why? I’ve only been at Riverview Elementary for a year, but so far, the Panther-to-Panther tradition has quickly become one of my favorites. It’s such a fun and meaningful tradition for both our staff and students. Watching Snohomish seniors return to find their elementary teachers is incredibly heartwarming. When I was a teacher at Valley View Middle School, I also loved our end-of-year talent show. It was so much fun to see students step into the spotlight, share their unique talents, and celebrate what made them special.

• If you suddenly had a free hour during the school day, how would you spend it? If I suddenly had a free hour during the school day, I’d head to fourth grade and jump into a Washington state history lesson or go to the gym and hope it’s Dance Week to brush up on the Cupid Shuffle. A free hour would be a great excuse to step away from the office and simply enjoy being part of Riverview!

• What’s something about you that students might be surprised to learn? Students are always surprised to learn that I have eight siblings. One of the first questions they ask is, “What are their names?” Then, naturally, they want to know where I fall in the sibling lineup. If you’re curious, I’m number seven.

• What do you enjoy most about being an assistant principal at Riverview Elementary? I most enjoy spending time with our students; getting to know them and hearing about their interests. For example, I recently learned that one of our second graders is learning how to forge metal with his dad. How cool is that?! I also love learning from our incredible teachers and staff. I missed Ms. Alford’s bee lesson last year, and I’m already looking forward to the next time she teaches it. Or watching the second-grade students learn about the salmon life cycle – we get to watch the salmon cycle from eggs, to alevins, to fry, before releasing them in a nearby stream. There’s always something new and fascinating happening at Riverview, and I feel lucky to be part of it.

In celebration of homecoming week, students in teacher Patty Stapleton’s Floral Design class at Snohomish High School got creative with bouquets featuring chocolate roses and tissue paper carnations!

Students designed their own arrangements and added school spirit with Panther colors- complete with paw ribbon. How sweet!

Each fall, the Glacier Peak High School (GPHS) and Snohomish High School (SHS) bands and drumlines bring the excitement of music to our elementary schools! These talented student musicians share their passion for music while inspiring the next generation of musicians.

Through lively music and engaging performances, they show elementary students just how much fun it can be to make music, work together, share their talents, and be members of the high school band! The high school bands are directed by teachers Tadd Morris (GPHS) and Richard Carey (SHS).
