September 9:  First day of Preschool

Camelot students participated in the “Storming the Sound” project this year, and last week, members of the Green Knights released salmon they’ve been raising – and studying – since January with the hopes the fish will return to Hylebos Creek in three to four years to start a new generation of salmon.  This was a big event, involving 13 Federal Way schools.

The salmon release event came as the culmination of the first year of “Storming the Sound with Salmon,” a partnership between the City of Federal Way and Federal Way Public Schools to promote science and environmental education. The partnership between the City and the district includes curriculum development, educational materials and assessment tools for stormwater and environmental science education. The curriculum was designed to align with state science standards and is easily transferable to schools in other districts.  After releasing salmon to the waters of the Hylebos, students participated with EarthCorps, Friends of Issaquah Salmon Hatchery, Highline Community College Marine Science and Technology Center, and district and City staff in habitat restoration activities and fun, hands-on science education exercises.

We are now taking enrollments for our tuition-based preschool beginning in September, 2013.  Tuition is $1,900.00 per year, divided into 9 monthly installments, from September through May.  Preschool is held Monday through Thursday for a half day, either in the morning or the afternoon.  If you would like more information regarding the preschool program, please contact Mrs. Keeney at 253-945-2527 or Mrs. Sanders at 253-945-2527.

Beginning April 29th, we will also be taking Kindergarten enrollments for the fall of 2013-2014.  The office will be taking enrollments between the hours of 9:30 and 3:00.  In order to enroll your child, you must provide a copy of their legal birth certificate, and you need to have all of their immunization dates.  It is also advisable to bring your child to school when you enroll, so that we may do a short screening we do for all incoming Kindergarten students.

Kindergarten Roundup will be on May 7th from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m.  At Roundup, you will have the opportunity to hear about the Kindergarten curriculum and meet the teachers.  We will also be taking enrollment forms that evening, as well as screening children.

If your child receives free school lunches, you may qualify for Internet Essentials from Comcast.  The special rate is just $9.95 a month plus tax.  Please visit InternetEssentials.com to get more information.  You will need proof that your child is eligible for free lunch.  As the school office is not able to provide proof of free lunch eligibility, please stop by Nutrition Services at 1344 S. 208^th Street, Federal Way  98003; or, you may call at 253-945-5555.

Go2 (grades online) allows Camelot parents access to student grades and assignments at the time that they are entered into the teacher’s grade book.  Parents who did not receive access codes and instructions from their child’s teacher at Student Led Conferences will be receiving them in the mail.
