Come join us for our virtual coffee chat. Every Friday, at least for the foreseeable future, we'll be hanging out in Zoom. We'll start by providing new updates, we'll answer questions, and then we'll turn it over to you to share stories, successes, challenges, and learn from each other. We hope to see you there.

During this “Stay Home, Stay Safe” period of time, we can all benefit from a little structure. At our recent spring AWSP board meeting, we discussed providing additional resources for families. Here is a resource the principals at the Washington Virtual Academy (WAVA) shared with us to help students in grades K-12 and their families create schedules to manage their time.

In this edition of AWSP News, we discuss what school might look like in the fall, a brand new resource called the Principal Contract Guide, your own evaluation and some tools and resources to help you, our Virtual Summer Conference, the pre-conference registration deadline, the Association of Washington Student Leaders summer programs, new guidance from the Department of Health, Friday 7am coffee chats, and sharing with us the amazing leadership moves you are making every day.

Congratulations, 2020 grads! Alaska Airlines and their friends, Russell Wilson, Ciara, Governor Inslee, and more, have a special message for you. Watch it the video and keep soaring! #SeniorsTakeFlight
