Help Us Support Families in Need - Donate to the Food Service Scholarship Fund! Every day, many families in our community face the challenge of managing their children’s food service balances while struggling to make ends meet. To support these families, we’ve established the Food Service Scholarship Fund. This fund helps families experiencing financial hardship by reducing or eliminating their unpaid food service balances. By alleviating this burden, we empower families to focus on their children's education and success. We invite you to join us in making a difference. Your donation—no matter the size—directly supports local families, ensuring every student has access to nutritious meals and the opportunity to thrive in school. Together, we can create a stronger, more compassionate community. Thank you for your generosity and commitment to supporting one another!

Dear Cle Elum-Roslyn School Community, at approximately 7:20 AM, the fire alarms at the High School and music room were activated. The fire department responded within minutes. It was quickly determined that the cause of the activation was as a result of increased water pressure, causing the dry sprinkler system to trip in the music room. Custodial staff were eventually able to drain off excess water pressure and reset the system. This process took approximately 25 minutes and the fire alarms did deactivate at approximately 7:45 AM. Most students had not arrived at school at this time. At no point were any students or staff placed at any risk. We wish to thank our fire department partners for their prompt response. - Cle Elum-Roslyn School District

Dear Parents/Guardians, as we prepare for our upcoming school photo day, we want to remind you of our policy regarding student attire for official photos. To maintain a uniform and professional appearance in our school records, we ask that students refrain from wearing hats, decorations, costumes, face coverings, or glasses (unless prescribed for vision purposes) during their school photos. Additionally, all clothing, hats, and other items must feature school-appropriate language and imagery. This policy applies to all official school photos, including those taken for ASB cards and the yearbook. However, parent-supplied senior photos are an exception to the hat policy in the yearbook. Seniors who choose to submit their own photos for the yearbook may include hats or other personal touches, as long as all clothing and items feature school-appropriate language and imagery. If your student or you would like an individual photo with any of these items (such as a hat or costume) for personal use, you may request a second photo be taken with the photographer. Please note that these second photos will not be included in the yearbook or ASB card but can be purchased separately for your own collection. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a consistent and respectful image in our school publications. Thank you, and we look forward to capturing your student's best smile!

Dear Cle Elum-Roslyn School Community: You may notice increased activity around our schools, particularly at the High School and in the parking lot. The US Forest Service is mobilizing fire crews to assist with the recent fires and establishing an incident command post on our campus. This will include tents on campus and parked equipment to support our firefighter crews. They will be staging over the next 3-4 days, and are expected to be on campus for a couple of weeks. At this time, we do not see them intermingling with our students when school begins, but we will keep you in the loop as we approach the start of school. Our beautiful campus is conducive to camping, while not athletics. As a designated Red Cross facility, the Cle Elum-Roslyn School District has supported the Forest Service in the past, and we are happy to assist. We will keep you informed of any changes. If you have any questions, please contact the district office at 509-852-4819. Thank you for your understanding and support.
