Announcements

We are excited to welcome our next batch of Eagles to the nest! We know that transitioning to high school can be both exciting and a bit nerve wracking for students and parents, especially if this is the first student in your family to enter high school.  

As 1st semester draws to a close, many students are looking ahead to their 2nd semester classes and asking about changes. As communicated last spring and again this past fall – course change requests remain limited in scope. The course change request form and visuals of criteria and timeline can be found on the counseling website. Any requests must be submitted for review by Thursday January 30th, at 11 a.m. Any changes that meet the criteria and are able to be made (pending availability in requested course/in student schedule) will be updated by 4 p.m. on the 30th. 

Senior Class Council is excited to announce that senior merch will be available to purchase from January 13th until the 24th! Hoodies are $40 and can be ordered from this link: https://wa-issaquah.intouchreceipting.com.
