WE Day and WE Volunteer Speakers: 45 Rainier students were able to attend WE Day this year at the Tacoma Dome April 18. Students were chosen according to the amount of service hours they turned in. These amazing kids had the privledge of listening to many motivational speakers, singing by some stars they know, dancing and much more. Rainier was also lucky enough to be chosen to have WE Volunteer speakers visit

our school. They began our day by speaking to the whole school. This was followed by a three hour workshop that 30 students attended to help them identify a service project they would like to focus on. Ms. Snyder will be receiving $250 from the WE Foundation to support their project! Ms. Cheri Snyder

Our first annual Parent Involvement Day of

African American Students (PIDAAS) was a

success. We had a total of 19 parents and a

number of Auburn School District administrators

attend. The goal of PIDAAS is to promote parent

involvement and address the serious

achievement gap facing African American

students. PIDAAS is a day for all parents to come

to their child's school, see what their day is like and to support their child's educational future.

Attention Students & Guardians: The time is coming to think about next year’s

ASB Officers elections. We will be electing a President, Secretary, Treasurer

(only for 8th graders next year) and 4 each of 7th and 8th grade senators (next

year’s grade). The best candidates are people who are responsible, positive,

interested in planning activities for all students, able to attend weekly meetings

and who want to help make Rainier the best school ever. Students running for office must have a “2” or above in all classes. They

must be able to attend before and after school meetings. Teacher

recommendations and administration approval will be done after a candidate

qualifies by submitting a petition (25 signatures) and have their grades and

behavior verified by Administration. Stay tuned for dates and details.
