Mark your calendars for our action-packed mid-year general membership meeting on Wednesday, January 21 at 6pm in the IMS library. We've got some exciting stuff to discuss, and we really need your voice and your votes to maintain our momentum for the rest of the year!

Here's what's on the agenda:
1. Don't miss our special presentation about the upcoming school levy with Executive Director of Finance and Budget for the Issaquah School District, Moriah Banasick. The election's on February 10, 2026, and this is your chance to get all the facts! If you're not able to make it, check out the levy webpage on the district.
2. We'll be forming our nominating committee for next year's PTSA Board positions (2026-2027). This is an important way to serve our community and keep the programs we rely on running strong!
3. Our treasurer will walk us through how we're putting your PTSA dollars to work
4. Want to help with some awesome upcoming events? We'll fill you in on opportunities like the 8th grade dance on February 27 (our first in SIX years!) and STEM Night (April 24).
5. Plus more good stuff...

Trust us - this is one meeting you won't want to skip! See you there!

2026 ISD LEvy

In 2022, voters in the Issaquah School District approved three levy measures to help continue funding for programs and positions not fully paid for by the state, such as school nurses, counselors and mental health supports, special education, and safety and security; as well as technology and critical repairs. These funding measures help us ensure equal access to education for all of our students. Without approval of the renewals from voters in 2026, the funding will go away.

Nominating Commitee members needed!

We need volunteers for the nominations committee! This committee will be responsible for the identification, vetting, and nomination of qualified candidates to serve on the 2025-2027 Washington State PTA Board of Directors. The Nominating Committee’s selections, plus any self-declared candidates will then be elected or assigned (depending on position) in the Spring. What does that mean? Recruit board and committee members for next year's PTSA! Shape 2026-2027!
