May 15th was a day to celebrate all of our Tiger’s reading efforts throughout the year! Students enjoyed making chalk art at lunch recess, our Rad Reader Cubs enjoyed their in school celebration and our Rad Reader Tigers had a blast at their after school celebration.
Thank you to our Radiant Readers team of volunteers for launching such a meaningful program. Laura Ancich, Char Richenberg and Ashley Borjeson were the dream team behind this pilot program this year and we are so grateful for their thoughtfulness and hard work to develop such a quality program.
The support was matched by our CE librarian Benjamin Heimfeld as well as the Carnation KCLS librarian, Bekka Martin.
Parents, caregivers, teachers, librarians please be on the lookout for next year’s list (coming soon!) and support your readers during the summer as they get a jump start on being a RAD reader!

This school year, PTSA awarded $10,000 in grant money to CE staff, and we’re so proud of this direct impact!

Please take a look at our end-of-year flyer coming home this week to see every grant awarded! Just a few are:

T-shirts for 5th grade camp

Robots for 1st grade classrooms (so they can learn early coding!)

Flexible-seating for 3rd and 4th graders (think stools that can wobble)

Number Rock (math support) for 2nd graders

Salmon-release field trip for 3rd graders

Walkie talkie replacements for staff!

It’s all thanks to you that we could have such an impactful year!

Funding Assemblies

June 13, 2025

At the core of PTSA is our commitment to equitability and accessibility.

This last year we intentionally moved more programs to the school day to catch as many children as possible.

Instead of more after-school events, we opted to fund assemblies, for example.

And an important part of our event planning process is working with an incredible mom, Melissa Baksa, our ISET Ambassador, who advises on inclusion best-practices. It matters deeply that EVERY child feels that school is a positive place and we take our role in that seriously.

PTSA is above all an advocacy organization, and we invite our families to work alongside us to ensure that every Tiger feels that they belong at Carnation Elementary
