Our Learning Improvement Team

School Mission Statement & SVSD Middle School Mission Statement:   “Focus on Children; Improve Learning; Value Growth for all Students, Staff and Parents.” Snoqualmie Valley Middle Schools are committed to a safe community environment in which all students will have the opportunity to experience intellectual, social, emotional, and physical growth.”   Academics ~ Arts ~ Activities                                                                                                                                                                                                                    Our LIT Team is comprised of 15 staff, administration, and parent members.  We meet once a month with our focus on improving the learning environment for our school.  We use the Nine Characteristics of Highly Performing Schools as our guide.  Our goals are to seek out ways to improve our test scores, assist staff in their needs, and to ensure that every student has an opportunity to be successful.  This team worked with staff to create our School Improvement Plan with action plans and will monitor this plan throughout the year.

How can parents/community help?

CKMS has a large base of PTSA parents.  Currently there is over 350 members.  We also have about 200 parent volunteers that assist us throughout the year in a wide variety of activities and programs.  Financially, our parents pay school startup fees for supplies and ASB needs.  They also have the option of participating in our annual fundraising events; a magazine drive in September and a winter carnival in January.  The majority of parent monies is routed into our ASB accounts and is used during the current school year for our student programs.  During the year our school will receive donations and grants from the community and parents to assist the needs of our staff and school.
