Cedar Way PTO

It's that time of year when peals of kids laughter and the shouts of teachers going down in the dunk tank ring out. 

One of the highlights of the school year is Field day, a collection of events such as egg toss, dunk tank, races, face painting and bouncy houses that kids LOVE!! 

This year, field day will take place on Friday, June 11th.  A picnic will kick out the event.  From 11:45 to 12:45 the whole school will picnic out on the playfield.  Primary and intermediate classes will then participate in Field day activities starting at 12:55 and running to 2:55. 

There are over 20 possible events.  There will be a DJ to crank out music to dance to while kids jump on bouncy houses, run in relays and get their faces painted.   

Volunteers are needed to help run or assist in events.  Donations are also needed to help cover some of the costs.  Contact Taira Rink or Nicole Jones if interested. 

Come join the fun! 

Thanks to the Lisa, Joy Muller, Marcy Lewis, Laura Longacre and their kids for their work on the planting beds around the school.

On Wednesday, May 26th five yards of donated bark from the Edmonds School district was dropped off at the CWE parking lot.  In the next two days a small group transformed a weedy set of planters into a nicely landscaped school front. 

What was once covered in weeds was transformed in two days - one clear and the other terribly rainy - into well tended planting beds. 

Even kids joined in to shovel bark, and with only one small injury, taking many wheel barrows to the different planting areas.

While at first daunting, the pile dwindled quickly with the help of a small group of people.  It was a nice reminder that a little bit of time, organization and sweat equity can lead to great changes!
