Yet another feather in the Tahoma School District’s cap…..Glacier Park Elementary school has been named a School of Distinction by the office of State Superintendent of Public Schools.
State Superintendent Terry Bergeson said
“Students and teachers and schools continue to make incredible progress,” Bergeson said. “This award celebrates the real gains these schools have made, gains that aren’t recognized by the federal No Child Left Behind law or its ‘Adequate Yearly Progress’ calculations.”
The Tahoma School District continues to be a strong draw to families relocating to the greater Seattle area. High WASL scores along with relatively more affordable housing (compared to districts closer to Seattle/Bellevue) means “more house for the money”.
Congratulations to the Administration, Teachers and Students who have worked hard for this honor of distinction!

"I was bitten by the "house-hunting bug" at a young age when I would go through the Sunday papers with my parents, looking for open houses. My father was an NFL football coach and we had moved several times throughout my childhood before finally settling in the Pacific Northwest. I have come to view the house hunting and the moving process as an adventure, and although it can sometimes be stressful and inconvenient, I love the process as much today as I did back then!"
