Today, students engaged with books read by special guests, many of whom dressed up for the special occasion! Students and staff had a ton of fun, learned new things, and had a positive experience with reading! |

Meet the THS Black Student Union |

The Black Student Union (BSU) at Tahoma High School is a club where students gather during Power Hour to learn about Black history and current influential Black figures, and to discuss racial issues facing the local, state and national communities. The group recently held a school-wide basketball game fundraiser, and are now in the process of planning their participation in this year's Culture Fair! |

Celebrating Tahoma's Maintenance Team! |
|
Tomorrow, March 3 is Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day, and we want to show our appreciation for the AMAZING members of Tahoma's maintenance team, who make sure our buildings function as they should and that students and staff are warm, safe and dry. THANK YOU for your service, maintenance professionals! |

March is National Nutrition Month! To help families in our community facing nutrition insecurity, we are running a food drive March 6–10 to benefit the Maple Valley Food Bank. Consider dropping off (or sending your child with) a few unopened, unexpired nonperishable food items to help stock the shelves at MVFB. The school with the most donations will win the Golden Can trophy award! |
