Launch Day was first piloted at Inglemoor High School during the 2018-2019 school year. It is a partnership between PTSA, the Northshore Schools Foundation and many volunteer community members.
It is a day for seniors to talk to experienced members of the community about lifestyle changes after graduation, what to expect at college, how to manage personal finances, when you should go to the doctor and other important subjects. Since the 2019-2020 school year ended with virtual classrooms, the Launch Day also went online.
Schedule of Events
Seniors from Bothell, Inglemoor, North Creek, Northshore Networks, SAS & Woodinville are invited to experience Launch Days. The first 100 students on the zoom call will get to participate live, otherwise, the sessions will be uploaded in 24 hours to the
