Thank You Volunteers!

June 10, 2025


A heartfelt THANK YOU to all of our amazing volunteers! 
Whether you gave your time in the classroom, helped at events, served as a lead for PTSA, or supported behind the scenes, we are so grateful for you. Your energy, ideas, and kindness helped make this school year stronger, more connected, and full of memorable moments for our students, staff, and families!
It truly takes a village, and we’re lucky to have the very best in Carnation! And a special shout out to Bakey Cupcakey for these beautiful thank you cookies (details will be sent to volunteers for when/where to pick one up)!

Book Purchases

June 9, 2025
Our PTSA theme this year was Reading Rainbow: I Can Go Anywhere! 
and we’re so excited to fund the gift that keeps on giving: BOOKS!
PTSA membership approved more than $4,000 in book purchases from next year’s Rad Reader list to flood every classroom this summer. Our hearts are full and grateful to be able to give this gift!
Thank you Tigers, and thank you Rad Readers team for such a thoughtful and impressive list of books our kids will thoroughly enjoy!

Playground Toy

June 9, 2025
Exciting news Tigers! PTSA (with YOUR help) raised more than $50k this year!
We have been pouring it back into the school all year long, and are now so happy to announce BIG plans to cap off this year.
Announcing the WhirlyQ! This super fun playground toy will be installed (hopefully this summer) and we couldn’t be more excited for the kids. Whoo-hoo!

Display of Olivia Sua’s Butterflies

June 9, 2025
Remember when PTSA and KCLS brought children’s illustrator Olivia Sua to the school for an assembly?
She led the kids through a beautiful butterfly craft, which were assembled together in three large canvases.
We are excited that the nurse’s office (where kids often need a little extra TLC) will be forever brightened by the kids’ creations!
