Listening Sessions with the Superintendent
If you have input for our Superintendent, I encourage you to attend!

The first Listening Session for this school year is September 28, 2021, at 6:00 PM via zoom. Please refer to the District Calendar for details and the zoom link.
Staff Recognition Program
Throughout the year, our staff works hard to support the success of all students. If you feel a Port Susan Middle School staff member has made a special connection or has gone above your expectations, I encourage you to use the nomination form below for recognition.
To show appreciation for certificated and classified employees, the Board of Directors looks forward to continuing the district’s staff recognition program for the 2021-22 school year. We are proud that our staff goes above and beyond for the children in the Stanwood-Camano School District.
Nominations for a Certificated or Classified Employee of the Month are accepted September through March for recognition by the board, administration, and our sponsors. All monthly award recipients will be considered for the Certificated and Classified Employee of the Year awards presented in May. Nominations are welcome from parents, community members, peers, administrators, and students.
If you would like to nominate a staff member and share personal examples of the dedication, commitment and passion this individual has portrayed working for the Stanwood-Camano School District, please visit our Staff Recognition Program page on the website. Please use personal examples of why you believe this individual deserves recognition and share how they inspire you and others.
