***NEW PROCEDURE*** PTSA will handle the $100 reimbursement for certificated staff directly. Please fill out https://issaquahhighptsa.org/Doc/Forms/IHPTSA%20Check%20Request%20Form.pdf , attach copy of the receipt, and place in the PTSA mailbox at the school. (Or take a photo of form/receipt and email IHPTSATreasurer@gmail.com). Please allow for 5 weeks since we only process checks once a month.
Different staff members (e.g. a department) may combine their reimbursement to purchase a larger item. If doing so, please inform the PTSA Treasurer on the form or by email (IHPTSATreasurer@gmail.com) if that's the case.

If you have students who are food insecure, there are different places they can pick up food either before school or during lunch.

Maureen Lipsen (Counseling Department) has snacks from PTSA
Nurses have snacks that come from Issaquah Schools Foundation and the Nurses Fund.
On Friday afternoons as school ends, any student may pick up weekend food packs (Power Packs) and toiletries in the IHS large conference room (past the front desk). The packs include macaroni and cheese, protein bars, etc. This is sponsored by the PTSA Angel Program as well as the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank.

Fall 2023 letter in staff mailboxes:

Issaquah High is an amazing place and YOU are a major reason why!

Here are some ways your PTSA shows appreciation and support:

Free Salmon Day Parking (just show your badge to park at IMS/IHS)
Red Safety Backpack Restock
Back-to-School Luncheon
Monthly Staff Breakfasts
Staff Appreciation Week
$10,000 budgeted in grants every year (www.tinyurl.com/ihptsagrants)

PTSA donors would like to pay for your PTSA staff membership again this year. Sign up at a staff breakfast or write your name/email on this sheet of paper and put it in the PTSA mailbox. We were thrilled to reach our goal of 100% Staff Membership last year (counted as FTE). Let’s do it again!

Help us to serve you better by filling out the PTSA Fall Survey at http://tinyurl.com/2023FallStaffSurvey

One last item – ISD is no longer processing PTSA reimbursements. Instead, submit your receipt and reimbursement form (found at www.tinyurl.com/ihptsaStaffHub ) to IHPTSATreasurer@gmail.com by email or PTSA mailbox. If you are combining staff reimbursements to buy a larger item, please note that. Allow for 5 weeks to process.

If you have suggestions for the PTSA, even small ones, email them to issaquahhighptsa@gmail.com. We always want to improve.

Looking forward to another fantastic year!
