Please join us in congratulating our grade level top spellers and the 2020 Discovery Elementary School Champion, Krithik V!

Krithik will be representing Discovery in the Regional Spelling Bee competition on Saturday, February 29, 2020, at Town Hall Seattle. We wish him all the best!

It was a tough competition. We are so proud of our little spellers who worked hard and showed a lot of determination and skill. 

The top spellers by grade are:

• 1st Grade: Suvas D.
• 2nd Grade: Agam S.
• 3rd Grade: Lahari G.
• 4th Grade: Ashank M.
• 5th Grade (Tie): Krithik V. and Daanish S.

Thank you for the tremendous interest and support shown for this program.

Yearbooks are a wonderful way for your students to preserve memories of their time at Discovery. Ordering your copy by April 28 guarantees you’ll receive a yearbook. Quantities are limited, so make sure you order by the deadline to secure your copy. 

Yearbooks are $20 (the 5th grade addendum is an additional $15) and are able to be purchased by clicking here. 

We’ve teamed up with the Mariners once again to offer DISCOUNTED tickets for you, your family and your friends to take in an afternoon of exciting baseball!

Join your fellow Discovery Eagles on Sunday, April 12 for a 1:10 p.m. game against the Boston Red Sox.  

Two seating options are available:

• 100 level: discounted PTSA price of $40 (regular price $63)
• 300 level: discounted PTSA price of $20 (regular price $23)

Save the date for Friday, March 27 when Discovery and your PTSA will be holding our annual Talent Show!

Does your student:

• Juggle?
• Do magic tricks?
• Dance?
• Sing?
• Play an instrument?
• None of these but they still have some amazing talent that the world needs to see?

No matter their talent, we encourage all students to audition! Registration for auditions opens up on February 24 with auditions the following week on March 3. All students in all grades are welcomed to audition and show us their unique talent or skill. 

Stay tuned for more information!

February’s Volunteer of the Month is Joanne Sousan. If you’ve seen (or smelled!) the popcorn machine running at Discovery, chances are you’ve seen Joanne. But her contributions to our school extend far beyond popcorn...from helping with the art docent program to assisting as room parent, a classroom helper, and making sure our staff feels the love during Staff Appreciation week, Joanne dabbles in everything. She also works to encourage other grandparents and parents to volunteer.
