Volunteers work to spruce up the Orcas Island School Campus in preparation for an Open House on Saturday, May 29, from 11:30 to 2:30.

Preparing for Open House on Saturday following the Pet Parade

By Marian O’Brien

This past Saturday, parents, students, teachers, staff and school board volunteers gathered together to do a bit of Spring cleaning for the Orcas Island Schoolcampus.

Every ounce of care the school receives when we have these spruce-ups is enjoyed by hundreds of pairs of eyes every day… young and old. This attention to the details reminds us of the value of our community’s investment in our school; in time, resources and pride.

Thanks to PTSA for providing refreshments, and thank you to all who came out!
