We would like to thank Robert Schuck for his 16 years of service. He has retired from our Board of Directors this year after so much time and effort spent making sure that We the People and Project Citizen ran smoothly and were enjoyable experiences for all.

*Covid-19 Notification*​

Dear Students and Teachers,

Despite the decision to end the federal mask mandate and our current comfortability with "the end of Covid", it still affects vulnerable people like immunocompromised people and the unvaccinated and can still affect those who are fully vaccinated and boosted. We have many employees and regular volunteers who we are concerned about in this regard, and we ask you to be concerned as well. Please get vaccinated if you aren't already and get a booster shot if you haven't. If not for yourself, then for others.

Please be sure to help stop the spread of Covid-19 and keep others safe by:

• Getting vaccinated as soon as possible
  
• ​Encouraging friends and family to get vaccinated asap
  
• Wearing a mask
• Washing your hands regularly and thoroughly
  
• Practicing social distancing with unvaccinated and immunocompromised people
  
• ​Disinfecting your surfaces regularly
  

​​

In other news, the upcoming Washington State Project Citizen Showcase will be virtual this year due to Covid concerns. We hope to see you all in person next year.​​
