• End-of-Year Archiving Process for ParentSquare

    Dear SVSD Staff, As we wrap up the school year, the SVSD Communication Team will begin the annual ParentSquare archiving process in late June. ParentSquare automatically archives content, including past posts and groups, at the end of each school year to help declutter feeds and prepare accounts for the upcoming school year. Most of this process is automated based on district dates and settings. No actions are required for our staff.  Archiving Posts All 2025-26 posts will move to archived status after June 30. These posts will no longer appear in regular feeds, but staff can still access archived posts at any time by following these steps: Log into ParentSquare from a web browser. Click your name in the upper-right corner. Select “Archived Posts.” Browse archived communications by school year. ParentSquare also has the ability to preserve posts from specific groups. This is especially helpful for groups created near the end of the school year that will continue communicating with families throughout the summer months. If you feel your group’s posts should remain active and not be archived, please contact me directly through ParentSquare or by email at laffeyc@svsd410.org. Archiving Groups Most ParentSquare groups will also be removed unless the district manually preserves them. If there is a group you would like to preserve, please complete the form attached to this ParentSquare message and list all groups you would like saved.  Please note that if you created a club, program, activity, committee, or other custom group, much of that membership data may change after the summer roll-up. Thank you for helping us keep ParentSquare organized and ready for a smooth transition into the new 2026-27 school year. If you have any questions, please contact the Communication Team. Sincerely, Conor Laffey Communication Director

  • Continued Update on Social Media Threat Investigation

    Dear Twin Falls Middle School Families, Thank you to the many families who have reached out today to share feedback and concerns. We understand that this morning’s messages, as well as students accessing the social media posts, may have caused anxiety for some students and families. Please know that while we are limited in what we can share during an active investigation, if our district ever believed there was a safety risk at school, we would not hesitate to cancel or modify the school day. Our administrative team continues to work closely with the Snoqualmie Police Department. We are in the process of contacting and interviewing students who share the same first names mentioned in the posts. For those who have not yet heard from us, please be patient as we work through this process. The posts were vague, and we are doing our best to follow every lead while keeping families informed. We have and will continue to have extra staff at Twin Falls while the investigation is still active.  We understand that some families may choose to keep their students home. If you choose to do so, please have your student check Schoology for assignments and call the attendance line at 425-831-4151to excuse their absence. We are committed to maintaining a safe and secure school environment. If we ever believe there is a credible threat, we will respond immediately, which could include canceling or closing school if necessary. Please remind your student how important it is to speak up if they see or hear something concerning, whether at school or online. By working together, we can continue to keep Twin Falls Middle School a safe and supportive place for everyone. Sincerely, Dan Schlotfeldt Snoqualmie Valley School District Superintendent

  • Upcoming SB-SBIRT Screener Information

    Dear 7th and 8th Grade Families, A student’s social and emotional health plays a key role in their success at school. To help identify the social and emotional support that middle school students may need, we use the School-Based Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Services (SB-SBIRT) process. The SB-SBIRT is an online screener administered during the school day to students in grades 7-8 at all three of our middle schools.  Our district  began using SB-SBIRT seven years ago in  partnership with the King County Department of Community and Human Services (DCHS) and grant funding from the King County Best Starts for Kids initiative. This model uses an online screening tool called Check Yourself, which was developed by Seattle Children’s Hospital and the University of Washington with Tickit Health. It takes no more than  30 minutes t o complete and asks questions covering four areas: strengths and goals, substance use, mental health and personal safety. The purpose of SB-SBIRT is to identify students who may need support so our staff can connect them with resources. Collective SB-SBIRT data may also point to broader trends impacting the larger student body. Student responses gathered through the SB-SBIRT screener will be handled confidentially and shared only with designated school counseling staff directly involved with providing support. In rare instances, a student’s responses may reveal a need for immediate action to protect them from harm. Our school uses this data for student support during the current school year only; it does not become part of the student’s educational record. Over the years, SB-SBIRT has proven to be an effective tool for supporting many of our students and families, with special care taken to ensure privacy. As part of the grant requirements, our counseling team will provide King County with a high-level (no names or personally identifiable information) summary each year of the support they were able to offer because of SB-SBIRT. Consequently, approximately 38% of the students identified through the screener as “potentially needing support” were not previously known to need help.  Each family will receive a message through ParentSquare with more information— including an FAQ and an opt-out option —prior to your student’s screener.   We will reach out two weeks before the students’ screening date . If you have any questions, please refer to the  district website  or contact your building’s success coordinator. Chief Kanim Middle School: Kimbra Baker (bakerk@svsd410.org) Snoqualmie Middle School: Abbey Cantrell (cantrella@svsd410.org) Twin Falls Middle School: Susie Scoones (scooness@svsd410.org) Thank you for your partnership in supporting the health and well-being of all students. Sincerely, Snoqualmie Valley School District

  • Upcoming Student Screeners at Middel Schools – Opt-O...

    Dear Middle School Families, To support the well-being of all students, Chief Kanim, Snoqualmie Middle, Twin Falls and Meadowbrook will administer three student screeners this year. These tools help our counseling staff understand student needs and provide appropriate supports through our Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS). Middle School Screeners and Dates mySAEBRS® Social-Emotional Screener mySAEBRS® (Social, Academic, and Emotional Behavior Risk Screener) is a brief, research-based self-assessment that helps identify how students are doing in areas such as social skills, academic behaviors, and emotional well-being. The screener takes only a few minutes to complete and provides valuable insights that help school staff support students more effectively. Chief Kanim Middle School (CKMS):  October 1 Twin Falls Middle School (TFMS):  October 1 Snoqualmie Middle School (SMS):  September 29 Meadowbrook School (MBS):  October 8 mySAEBRS Questions Washington State Healthy Youth Survey (HYS – Fall 2025) The survey will be given to students in Grades 6 and 8 in large districts across the State. The Healthy Youth Survey includes questions related to physical activity, unintentional and intentional injury, substance use, interpersonal relationships, school experiences, risk and protective factors, and access to school-based services.  Survey results are used by schools, communities, and State agencies to plan programs to support our youth and reduce their risks. Participation in the survey is voluntary and steps are taken to ensure student privacy. There are no names or codes used to link a survey back to a student.  Chief Kanim Middle School (CKMS):  October 22 Twin Falls Middle School (TFMS):  October 22 Snoqualmie Middle School (SMS):  October 20 Meadowbrook School (MBS):  October 8 Learn More About the Healthy Youth Survey   |    HYS Website   |   Healthy Youth Survey Questions   Please note that we have opted not to include the optional gender question and have requested and received exemptions from the sexual behavior and sexual violence questions . These questions are only asked of students in grades eight and above and are not included in our version of the survey. More information can be found on the HYS Informational Page . Counseling Survey Developed by our school counseling team, this survey asks about belonging, safety, organization, study habits, stress, and friendships. Students can also indicate if they would like additional support. Conducted on the same dates as mySAEBRS (see above). View Counseling Survey Questions Confidentiality and Family Choice All student responses are confidential and used only by counselors to guide support services. Families may choose to opt out of any survey  (Sept. 24) by completing the attached ParentSquare Opt-Out Form. If you have questions, please reach out to your student’s school counselor.
