REMINDER: Protests Planned Saturday, June 14

Hello PNB School Families,

We wanted to remind you that this coming weekend on Saturday June 14th, there are several planned peaceful protests around the Seattle area/ in the Seattle Center. Since this is the same day as School Performance, please plan for crowds and you may want to plan ahead for potential parking issues and traffic disruptions. As always, please practice good situational awareness when you are out and about in the city or on the Seattle Center campus this Saturday. Please make sure to allot for extra time so your students are on time for check in. Due to the increased activity, we have hired a second guard to be in attendance for tomorrow’s performance.

We look forward to watching all our students shine on stage this weekend in their performances!

Please reach out to the school if you have any questions.

Thank you!

PNB School Staff
