A tremendous, heart-felt thank you goes to Tim Jenks and Mark Rutherford for their efforts to bring the 6th Grade Trip home last Friday! Tim Jenks flew Steve Edele and Mark Rutherford to Bend, Oregon on Friday, after Jim had to return early to Seattle for emergency laser surgery on his eye. Steve and Mark took over driving responsibilities to get the 6th graders back home from their travel study week. |

This summer, Sally Adam will be leading a trip to Mexico with a group of Vashon High School students. The VHS juniors are traveling to Mexico as part of a service project to provide support to children at Casa Hogar. The Harbor School has a long standing relationship with Casa Hogar, and conducts an annual trip to the shelter. Unfortunately, the trip planned for this year's 8th grade class was cancelled due to uncertainty based on the developing swine flu news.

At times these sessions will have a particular topic; at other times it will be a more open question and answer format. Please click below to view more details! |
