Chief Leschi Schools earned national recognition receiving the U.S. Department of Education Green Ribbon School District Sustainability Award. This award honors our innovative efforts to teach students how to care for the planet, reduce environmental impact and utility costs, improve health and wellness, and ensure effective sustainability practices. Across the country, 26 schools, 11 school districts, and four postsecondary institutions are being honored as 2023 Green Ribbon Schools, District Sustainability Awardees, and Postsecondary Sustainability Awardees. Chief Leschi Schools (CLS) is Washington’s first state-tribal education compact (STEC) school to be selected as a Green Ribbon School District. Chief Leschi Schools was nominated by the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), based upon CLS implementation of components identified in Pillar Three: offering effective environmental and sustainability education, including civic learning, green careers, and STEM connections. Chief Leschi’s environmental and sustainability achievements include restoration work at Lake Leschi, the on-campus wetlands, to create a powerful outdoor learning space that inspires students and helps them see their connection to the land. Students themselves completed much of the restoration work, so they can apply the environmental and sustainability concepts they learn in the classroom. Connecting the classroom to the environment and careers encourages students to continue to steward the land. Chief Leschi Schools also offers students access to an indigenous culinary garden and a miniature salmon hatchery. “This well-deserved recognition is a reminder that anyone can play a role in making communities sustainable,” said Governor Jay Inslee. “Schools are where young people prepare for their future, and that includes getting the knowledge necessary to support the environment and increase sustainability. Future generations are already learning the importance

We raise our hands to our boy's basketball team as they travel to Spokane to compete in the WIAA State tournament. We celebrate and honor the players and coaches as they make the trek to the east side. Students, teachers and community members stood and cheered for our Warriors as they left campus this morning for the opportunity to play for a State championship. The halls echoed with positive vibes in hopes of propelling the Warriors to victory.

Being a part of Chief Leschi, there's a chance you may have heard the term CTE. There is also a chance you may have thought, "what in the world is CTE?" Career & Technical Education, also known as CTE, is a collection of courses that lead to careers within Puyallup tribal enterprises in the community by providing students with the technical and occupational knowledge needed to be successful. Here is a quick video that includes our students expressing why CTE is helping them achieve dreams. #warriorfamily #careerandtechnicaleducation #CTEMonth #ChiefLeschi
