We are having our much loved Science Fair in March and need a Chairperson. We already have a committee of 8, but they need a leader. If you would like to chair or co-chair this program. Please let Joanna Ray josueray5@hotmail.com or Lea Bachman leaslater@yahoo.com know, otherwise we may be saying goodbye to Science Fair.......

Wanted--Parent Volunteers for Lunchtime January 7-12
Parent volunteers are needed to kick off Discovery's new food waste recycling program during the week of January 7-12. Parents will supervise children sorting their lunch garbage to recycle food debris, napkins, cardboard containers, etc. Volunteers need to be available from 10:45-12:00 at least one weekday during the week of January 7-12. Please contact Lea Bachman at leaslater@yahoo.com or 425-392-3946 to volunteer. This is a really excellent program organized by the Green Team which is run by teachers Tasha Kirby and Sue McNamara. Kudos to them for getting this started and helping our kids learn to better care for our planet! Won't you help too?

We are looking for 3 or 4 volunteers to assist with this (4 hr. max) morning event on Saturday 12th January. Set up is very basic and we are looking for people to serve muffins, coffee and juice and to take money at the door.
