Our website is moving!

This website will be on hiatus for the summer.  We are in transition to move over to the
Jane Addams school district website. There will be a PTSA tab with the same type of information present here. We hope that this will be a good thing as you will find that all of Jane Addams information will be housed in one place.

Jane Addams Garden Work Party

Come dig for Doughnuts! The next (and last) garden work part will be Sunday, June 2, 10 to 1. We'll have doughnuts. Come for as little or as long as you'd like.
 
Ongoing Garden Maintenance 
  • Libby Titus and her kids work in the garden most Tuesday afternoons after school and would love to have JA students and their parents join them.
  • Libby is also seeking volunteers to help with mowing (2 volunteers, 3 times each) and watering (4 volunteers, 6 times each) over the summer. Please contact her at 206-915-1275 or libbytitus@gmail.com, if you are interested.
