“Hello! My name is Derek Thibeault. I’m new to Cle Elum but have loved my time here so far. I was born and raised in western Washington and I’m super excited to start my next chapter here with the School District. In me free time I like to watch football, play video games, and hang out with my fiancé. If you see me around the school always feel free to say a hello!”
Let's give a big welcome to Derek!

WATER UPDATE: The Washington State Department of Health has officially cleared the Roslyn water system, and district water operations have returned to normal.
All schools are good to go on Monday, and drinking fountains and normal water use will resume as usual.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we worked through this situation. If you have any questions, please contact the District Office at (509) 852-4819.
- Cle Elum-Roslyn School District

District Water Update
The school district remains on the Roslyn water system, which is still impacted by this week’s water main break. Due to the potential for water contamination, all drinking fountains across the district will be unavailable for use until further notice.
The district is prepared and taking steps to support students and staff during this time. Our Food Services team has developed alternate menus and will be ready to serve meals as scheduled. The district will also have some bottled water available at schools; however, families are encouraged to send students to school with extra water as available, and staff should plan to bring their own drinking water each day.
We anticipate receiving updated information on Monday following Roslyn’s water testing and a review by the Department of Health, and we will share an update with families as soon as it is available.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact the District Office at (509) 852-4819.
