MRHS PTSA General Membership Meeting, Tuesday, May 13th, 7pm Please join us for our last General Membership meeting of the year. This is an important meeting where we elect our board for next year and approve next year’s budget. Mt. Rainier HS PTSA Needs You!!! Please consider volunteering for a position on the board next year as well. We are currently looking for officers for the following positions: Refreshments, Website, Weekly Announcement, Volunteer Coordinator, School Store, Senior Party, Student Recognition, Spirit Wear, Small Learning Community Liaisons, Fundraising, Brick Drive. Some of these committees already have folks who have volunteered to chair, but still need help. Please let us know if you'd like to head up a committee or work on one.
Thank you for your wonderful support of MRHS PTSA throughout this year. See you on the 13th! Exploration Academy Student Led Conferences will be Thursday, May 8 from 2:30-8:00 and on Friday, May 9 from 7:30-2:30. Why student led conferences? - Involvement makes learning active
- Provides opportunities to identify and celebrate each students individual growth
- Provides opportunities for students to evaluate their own performance
- Encourages students to accept responsibility for their learning
- Gives students a strong sense of accomplishment and pride
- Develops leadership skills
- Increases family participation in student learning
- It is a 4 P (Portfolio) graduation requirement
What does a student-led conference look like? The student: - Leads the conference
- Presents a collection of work that reflects his/her learning
- Discusses his/her reading and math skills
- Presents his/her academic and future goals
As a result, families are provided the opportunity to talk with their student about work that is presented so that parents will gain a better understanding of academic expectations. Parents will also identify ways to support students as they achieve their goals. Thank you! Graduation Tickets: All Graduation Tickets will be handed out at Rehearsal on June 12th at MRHS. We will be pre-selling 1 extra ticket to graduating seniors (or their parent) for $2.00 on a first come first serve basis May 12 – 16 during regular bookkeeping hours. At this time we do not anticipate more than 1 extra ticket per senior, however, we will announce after May 16th if more will be available. Seniors! Grad Night Party tickets are still available. Get yours in right away to reserve your spot! Go to the Seniors page of this website for the order form. Buy a Brick to support the Senior Grad Night Party!
