Welcome to the Interlake PTSA Web Site

We're glad you are here. Our job as your PTSA is to help create and nurture the connection between home, school, and the community that tells students we care, tells teachers we support them, and tells parents they are not alone...we are all in this together.

2009 - 2010 "Olympic Spirit" Auction

Make your reservations now for the 2009 - 2010 Interlake Auction!  The auction will be held March 27, 2010 at the Marriott in Redmond Town Center.  Tickets are available at $45 per person before 12/31/09.

Attendance at Interlake is at a record level!  The Students and Teachers need our financial support to fill in the gap of budget shortfalls.  The auction provides funding for PTSA activities, athletic equipment, sports scholarships, senior night, music, teacher appreciation, and much more.

None of this can take place without the help of many volunteers.  Join us in putting together a fabulous night of fun and fundraising.  Our biggest challenge is the procuring of items.  Please do your part and ask the people you do business with to donate an item.  Remember, the auction provides something for every student at Interlake.

For reservations, to volunteer, or to make donations, visit www.interlakesaints.org.

Reflections

The Reflections Program is a National PTA and WSPTA cultural arts competition. The purpose is to provide an opportunity for students to use their creative talents by expressing themselves through their own original works.  The theme for school year 2009-2010 is "Beauty is...".  When the thrill of vacation begins to wear-off, challenge your teen to think about what "Beauty is" means to them. Suggest they push the boundaries of "beauty" in any and all directions.

Young artists get involved in Reflections through their local PTA or PTSA. Only original works of art are accepted. The six art areas are:

Literature -- works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, prose, drama, short stories and lyrics.

Music Composition -- original musical composition, with or without words.

Photography -- prints up to 11 x 14 inches in color or black and white, including techniques: photogram, retouched, montage, sandwich and multiple exposure.

Visual Arts -- drawing, painting in tempera, oil, acrylic, watercolor & t-shirt paints, computer generated art, two-dimensional collage, printmaking, needlework & leather tooling.

Film/Video -- original works, with or without sound, of animation, narrative, documentary, experimental or music video/film.

Choreography/Dance -- originally choreographed dance composition (recorded on VHS tape or DVD).

Encourage your teen to express themself and let Interlake High School PTSA showcase their work! For specific details on deadlines, rules and applications visit Washington PTSA main website: www.wastatepta.org/programs/reflections/program_details.html
