Save the Date! 8th Grade Farewell Celebration
On Thursday, June 18th, we will be celebrating with our 8th grade students from 1:30 PM to 4:05 PM at Shahala Middle School.
The cost of this event is $20.00. Each $20.00 ticket includes a trip to the Kona Ice Truck, a special dessert, unlimited activities and games with prizes, and a photo booth & free pictures.
Students will also have a BBQ lunch option, and we will have a special motivational guest speaker.
All 8th graders (no ticket purchase required) will receive a gift thanks to the generous donations received from our community partners.
Shahala student behavior expectations apply at this event.
More information will be coming out later in the Spring about this event.
Please note that this has been pushed back one day due to the school closure on 12/17/2025. The date is subject to additional change due to possible future snow days.

A message from our Principal, Chris Griffith
I'm excited to extend a warm invitation to a new monthly event I’m calling Coffee with Chris to all interested parents.
Join me for a casual conversation to discuss the future of our students. This is a great opportunity for us to connect informally. I'd love to hear your hopes, dreams, and aspirations for your children as they navigate these pivotal middle school years.
If you can’t make it this month, no worries, maybe next month will work better. I will vary the times of these meetings throughout the year to try and accommodate a variety of schedules.
Please stop by for a cup of coffee and a conversation. I look forward to hearing your insights!
Next Coffee Date is To Be Announced
Location: Starbucks, 170 NE 192nd Ave
