the ampersand

As the next school year will be the tenth that Lake and Park opens its doors, we are marking our first decade with a celebratory gathering and fund drive on May 11th, at 6 pm, details above.  We began  in 2003-2004 with 13 children and Jordan Talley (Paris) and I as the two teachers. By the close of the year, there were 21 children enrolled.   The following year, Luann Perkins joined us as a half time teacher, with approximately 30 children in the school. Now those same children are in the sixth and seventh grades;  several current children in the school are siblings of those from the first  two years.  We are inviting those children to especially help us in our celebration;  please contact the school, for more information.

We welcome everyone in the larger community who shares an interest in child centered education to participate.  One can join us for the evening.  We welcome contributions of any amount.  We are a 501 (c)3 non profit corporation.  Reservations and gifts can be made by mailing a check to the school's address at 3201 Hunter Blvd. S.  Seattle, WA.  98144
