FAQs

What is TOLO? TOLO is a dance that originated in the Pacific Northwest at the University of Washington. The all-women’s honor society titled the “TOLO club” borrowing the Chinook word Tolo, meaning success or achievement. TOLO dances eventually spread to high schools – mostly on the West Coast of the United States. Today, TOLO is celebrated at Issaquah High School as an informal, fun dance. Students can attend with friends, dates or by themselves! A theme will be revealed shortly and students can either dress to the theme, or show up as they are.

Is TOLO a dance only? TOLO is similar to the homecoming event, at a smaller scale. Food, drinks and fun activities will be a part of the experience. A photo wall with props will be set up for students to take photos on their phones. And, DJ KEEB will be here to provide an entertainment and music for the dance floor.

Can I bring a guest? Issaquah High Students may bring 1 guest from outside Issaquah High School. To do so, students must pick up a guest dance form from Ms. Couty or print the online guest dance form, completely fill out, and return by 3:00 p.m. Thursday 3/28.

Why should I pre purchase my ticket? There is a discount! Pre-purchased tickets are $15 with ASB membership and $20 without at the bookkeeper’s window from 3/14 – 3/28 at 3:00 p.m. Ticket prices will be $30 at the door, no discount.

The Issaquah DECA Club attended WA DECA’s State Career Development Conference in March 2024. We had 159 students in attendance (a school record). Over three days, students competed against 5,000 other students from around the State. It was a fun (and exhausting) three days, and we had some great success to share.

Congratulations, students!

Meet Principal Erin Connolly

Hello, Eagle families! One of the best parts about being a principal is getting to build relationships with students, staff and families. A few fun facts about me: My family immigrated to the United States in the 1920s from a tiny island off the west coast of Ireland. My favorite young adult book is “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.” I enjoy listening to folk music, and if I could only eat one type of food for the rest of my life, it would be tacos. My bucket list includes traveling to all of the continents.
