To every parent, caregiver, and family member who donated, cheered, or spread the word—thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We love our school and are grateful to be part of such a caring, committed community.
We have a couple more fun events heading your way.

Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week
Big Thank You to Our Amazing Volunteers and Parents!

THANK YOU FROM STUDENT ACTIVITIES!
We also want to give a heartfelt thank you to those parents who have generously volunteered their time and energy to support our After-School Activities.
Your involvement makes such a positive difference in the lives of our students, providing them with enriching experiences and valuable opportunities.
We truly appreciate your dedication and commitment to our school community.
Walk and Roll to School Month
Spring School Pool is back!
A special shout-out to Larissa Ruiz for passing out all the maps and sunglasses to the school. This month, you are encouraged to walk or carpool to school. The kids have a "Candyland" like map in their classrooms. Each day, they mark how they got to school.
At the end of the event, the maps are collected and returned to the City of Redmond to be tallied. Each map is worth a $5 donation from the city to the PTSA. They only need to participate once.
Please make sure your child puts their name on their map, and their teacher's name too. If your child brought theirs home, just make sure they return it by the end of the month. More reminders are coming soon.

Now Accepting Nominations for the Einstein Volunteer Awards!
Have you seen an Einstein Volunteer or Staff Member go above and beyond this year? Let the PTSA know their name and what they've been doing by nominating them for the end-of-year PTSA awards! Your nomination could get them recognized for all of their efforts.
Who's eligible? Any staff member or volunteer. Some examples are people who help with PTSA programs and events, those who have helped teachers, bus drivers, or any staff member who you feel deserves recognition for their efforts.
Thank you to the awesome budget committee for meeting and doing the work to prepare us for the next school year.
Einstein School Dance Night! Tuesday, June 17th from 6:30–8:00 PM
Shine on, Otters!
Join us for an otterly fun evening as we celebrate the end of the school year with music, lights, and dancing!
We booked a live DJ to turn tracks and get the party started! Kids are encouraged to bring their water bottles to stay hydrated. The PTSA will be selling snacks.

Roles & Responsibilities
WSPTA-Approved LWPTSA-Led Training
Local PTA leaders and incoming boards members: This WSPTA-approved training session will help all PTA/PTSA board members understand the basic responsibilities of their positions—and everyone else’s!
We will review the basic elected PTA positions (president, secretary, treasurer), and we’ll also cover topics such as advocacy, fiduciary responsibility, membership and outreach.
This training is ideal for anyone new to a local PTA board, as well as any board officer who could benefit from a comprehensive overview of the board’s responsibilities in the PTA realm.
Mark your calendars for the legendary Mrs. Lindgren and her amazing choir singers as they present "Singing Around the World!"
The concert is on June 5th at 7:00 PM in the Einstein gym!
🎶 The students have been working hard to learn songs in different languages. They can't wait to take you on a musical journey—see you there!
