Welcome to

Loon Lake School District #183

Established in 1889

Living, loving and learning for life!

Our Mission:

To be a professional, welcoming, and joyful community of learners in a secure and nurturing environment.

Our Vision Statement:

We envision a welcoming, nurturing and secure setting, where positive relationships abound among students, staff members, families and the community. And where all reach their potential as lifelong, motivated learners.

We envision a business-like, professional atmosphere that fosters perseverance and problem-solving in the pursuit of personal and academic goals.

We envision a climate of academic excellence, where research based methods and materials, adequate resources, and a mind-body approach help all students master Washington State's Essential Academic Learning Requirements and develop skills and attitudes that transfer to the real world, now and in the future.

Please welcome Carla Crowther who was appointed at the September board meeting to fill the position previously held by Ray Rasmussen who submitted his resignation at the June board meeting. Thank you Ray for your many years of service to the Loon Lake School, you will be missed by us all.

Our Quote of the Week is:

The real source of wealth and capital in this new era is not material things.. it is the human mind, the human spirit, the human imagination, and our faith in the future.
Steve Forbes

Fall is here, so please send your kids to school properly dressed for the weather, because you never know what Mother Nature has in store for us.

The Principal

(Click on my name to e-mail me)

Mr. Waunch started working at Loon Lake School on July 1st 1990. He was a high school principal and decided he wanted to work with younger children.

Our Hero

Ms. Barbara Sevey

(Click on my name to e-mail me)

Barb loves her job very much! She thinks she is a good secretary (and she's right). She has been a business manager for 21 years. Barb is a mother of two boys and a grandmother or three girls and would like more grandchildren. She is going to be retired in five years (which will be sad). She has always wanted to be a crime scene investigator. She became a secretary because she wanted to work with children. Barb is Elvis's biggest fan, I mean Biggest!!! Barb is the glue that keeps this school together! "Thank you Loon Lake Community for accepting me as one of your own, I have enjoyed every minute of it."

All the interviews of our staff were conducted by our students whom we are very proud of. Thank you to all of the parents for providing us with some of the best kids in the world!
