2. A huge thank you to all those that participated in student club HOSA's Blood Drive event in December at Peninsula High School. There were 38 successful blood units donated by staff and students.

7. Native American Fact – In 1857 the Tulalip Indian School was founded and was created to assimilate Native American children into an Anglo-American culture or to “civilize” the Native American Children. Many of the children were taken from homes, not allowed to speak their traditional language, forced to wear “English” clothing and often never returned home. The last federally run Native American residential school was closed in 2020.
