\"Our voters came in at over 57% approval rating to to support our capital projects levy,\" a district official said during the board meeting, describing the levy as a capital projects measure earmarked in part to replace the long‑overdue track and field and to address stadium safety concerns. The official said the district set aside $3.5 million for the track and has since received matching funds from grants and donations to approach the project total.

Nut graf: The community day included a stadium groundbreaking event, local officials and long‑time community members; district leaders called the event a broad community celebration that also served as a public launch for capital projects funded by the recent levy and outside support.

Funding update: Board members said legislators secured roughly $800,000 in state funding to support the stadium project. \"We closed out the legislative season with $800,000 coming from our legislators,\" one board member said and named Senator McHugh, Representative Marcus and Representative Marshall as contributors to that appropriation.

Project next steps: The district reported awarding contracts for stadium work and finalizing colors and design mockups; leaders said they expect additional grant and donation matches to cover remaining costs and that they will share mockups with the board and community as they become available.

Community context: The speakers framed the work as part of broader efforts — including academic goals and attendance outreach — that the district highlighted during community‑wide events. The presentation included historic elements (a 100‑year‑old graduate attended the groundbreaking) and thanked the mayor for permitting street closures for the festival.

No legal or ordinance citations were introduced in the meeting transcript for this item; funding updates and design approvals were presented as administrative updates to the board rather than formal ordinance actions recorded in the meeting minutes.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Eatonville School Board of Directors Business Meeting 05/14/2025 at 7:00 PM","oneSentenceSummary","District leaders recapped a large community day and coronation, said voters approved a capital projects levy by about 57% to replace a decades‑old track and stadium, and announced roughly $800,000 in legislative funding toward stadium construction.","taxTitle","Eatonville School District, School Districts, Washington","taxId",55047,"location","Washington","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6241108,"Eatonville Elementary reports gains in ELA, highlights attendance as barrier to further progress",645,869000,1514000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3309951-a4fd5785c97a95dde1441b84db88687c&start=869&end=1514","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3309951-a4fd5785c97a95dde1441b84db88687c/thumbnail_869000.jpg","/articles/6241108/Washington/Eatonville-Elementary-reports-gains-in-ELA-highlights-attendance-as-barrier-to-further-progress","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6241108-ca26a291c61ebef88315f30fcfcaa6e2/orig.mp4?Expires=1770898293&Signature=m8i52qvhK44QztvRAPbruiDrda~zG~sPSU9ipQEAunM2gWyNIaXSkkp3D7RpsoeoeBO2l4ktUEJxi6Ra2SFJzYpyAeY6gQ~ZIyEV6vQ73mZBx~z1Twod4Y3UtaDg3L1~oM6E8Z5FA1AnW7ZwJuyCETiHqRyiMA210z6NKcF39GJpiz2QwVmham8D61RfeJ550-sE4MLkO0SmXJ0IavxwFt8HtAQUlZiWJjpl9rFWcBhiN8JBNvmPdI5MbDBeHVlReCcg-vyhWSj9j1WDHHIEsG5dNciRAlGh4nWjm3Q-ZKovkdVLLKJFX~OZaAm-vFUzmfAZAQafmcZLJAvho1OyyQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","School leaders told the Eatonville School District board that focused ELA interventions and consistent curriculum implementation produced measurable winter gains, while attendance disruptions and resource tradeoffs limited similar improvements in math.

\"This group of students ... they scored last year on the SBA, 35.2% in ELA, 33.8 percent in math, and 46.5 in science,\" the presenting school leader said while reviewing fifth‑grade outcomes, citing improvements from previous years. He and other staff pointed to a fall‑to‑winter rise on iReady benchmarks: \"For ELA, every single grade level had a 10% increase in their grade level standards,\" he said.

Nut graf: School leaders described a multi‑pronged approach — updated ELA curriculum, coordinated para‑educator phonics training, targeted one‑on‑one interventions and an after‑school tutoring program — that together produced reading gains. They also said math growth lagged because the school temporarily doubled ELA intervention time for some students to accelerate reading gains.

Details and data: The principal (presenter) said that for some cohorts SBA performance rose by more than 10 percentage points compared with the prior year and that winter iReady diagnostics showed significant typical and \"stretch\" growth for students multiple grade levels behind. He noted one example: fifth grade had 39% meeting typical growth in math by January after instructional changes.

Attendance challenges: School staff said two months of high illness — multiple students and staff leaving school sick daily — produced daily attendance percentages in the 60s for those months and made the district's goal of a 5% average monthly attendance increase unattainable for the current year. \"We had, like, 15 to 20 kids going home, 5 staff a day going home throwing up,\" the presenter said, describing the outbreak. Leaders emphasized that many absenteeism drivers are parental or household issues and that district‑level coordination and wraparound services are needed.

Policy and next steps: Staff said they plan to replicate the intentional ELA intervention model in math next year and continue building school culture to support staff retention and engagement. They also flagged pending state legislative work on attendance liaisons and pending truancy updates as potential resources; the presenter said a truancy meeting with Pierce County will provide additional information.

The presentation included both classroom‑level intervention data and district‑level operational challenges; board members and community members offered support and suggested community forums and volunteer programs as possible complements to district strategies.","School leaders reported double‑digit winter gains in English language arts as measured by iReady and SBA historical comparisons, credited targeted interventions and curriculum fidelity, and said high illness and parental barriers drove a drop in daily attendance that threatens continued gains.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6241115,"Eatonville elementary expands after‑school tutoring into districtwide summer sessions with community funding",605,157000,762000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3309951-a4fd5785c97a95dde1441b84db88687c&start=157&end=762","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3309951-a4fd5785c97a95dde1441b84db88687c/thumbnail_157000.jpg","/articles/6241115/Washington/Eatonville-elementary-expands-afterschool-tutoring-into-districtwide-summer-sessions-with-community-funding","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6241115-6ea4370e26bb76ea4f9fd062a442f935/orig.mp4?Expires=1770898293&Signature=aR-cIyFgDmuuaQXln6~HYmGmguHYlQ2nZ1lH9laveiiv-4oKLdJ3qIZqSWb0fZxyiXPyF~IPmHbnHrCNb3RuIHbcspGU~BJ8m7UNGeDs2EIjWeluc4geck6EUUywdzvDNwB7pcFkj7AB~lzWTGOydYjDYTQKAarF1sDxCvKotN3Onn7i4YR9nYQf7sNSPlhvlsXjuHComYoiVbVyG0aAoy-Tf0OXAsql~7kHVLHVl2ctP6ZJ3EP1vol1R8Mxmefeviy3-4Yez5ui8Sto8FhwY3FzaO7aN6GD5qf9FCk3rMse-ftuDiPuh~OftNOdME~YXJr0kqPbyGpylUBO4I8rrg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Eatonville Elementary School staff told the Eatonville School District board they will expand a successful after‑school tutoring program into three districtwide summer sessions after receiving administrative approval and a community gift.

The tutoring program, presented by Miss Holland, runs three days a week for one hour, with classroom and small‑group work and a 6:1 student‑to‑adult ratio during the regular after‑school sessions. \"We offer, 3 days a week after school for an hour of students to come in and work in small groups,\" Holland said, adding that tutors often work one‑on‑one or in small groups and that families can take home games and activities to practice skills.

The program's summer expansion will run three sessions — June, July and August — and organizers said they have 15 teachers signed up to staff it. \"We're doing 1 to, 1 teacher to 8 kids, and 15 teachers have... They've seen it. They're they're they bought into it,\" Holland said. Organizers said the summer sessions will include art, outside learning, social‑emotional supports, two daily snacks and bilingual intake forms. The district was asked to provide transportation options for families with barriers to attendance.

Why this matters: tutors and school leaders said the after‑school work produced measurable literacy gains and increased student confidence. Holland reported that in fall there were 35 students in the program and 32 different students in spring; most students showed growth. She also reported specific literacy results: in one group she said the class started with 18 students and \"we have 16 now at grade level or above\" for letter‑name fluency, and in a separate older group, \"11 out of their 14 are now at grade level fluency.\"

Funding and inclusions: the summer expansion is supported by a community donation. When asked whether the funding was part of a levy or district funds, Holland said, \"It's actually, our tutoring level for scholarships from Evan Wilson's donation.\" The presentation also stated the program will explicitly invite multilingual learners (MLL) and provide an interpreter during intake; the Google intake form will be available in Spanish and English.

Program operations and limits: presenters said the regular after‑school tutoring operates with six students per adult and that the summer model will be one adult for eight students. School staff said the summer offering will be open to students identified by iReady risk indicators, teacher and counselor input, and that transportation support will be arranged when the Google form indicates it is needed.

Discussion and next steps: school leaders thanked district administrators (mentioned by name in the presentation) for giving the program the \"green light\" and support. Staff said they will proceed with registration and outreach; no formal board motion or vote on the summer program was recorded in the meeting transcript.

The program's presenters and district leaders said they will continue to refine enrollment logistics, interpreter coverage and transportation for families with barriers to attendance.","Eatonville Elementary staff described a three‑day‑a‑week after‑school tutoring model that officials will expand into a districtwide summer program funded by a donor gift; the program will include multilingual supports, transportation assistance and 15 participating teachers.","actionData","errors"]
