      Dear Parents and Guardians of Federal Way High School students, 

      We hope each of you are having a summer filled with good times and positive memories while staying safe through these unprecedented difficulties related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

      During this summer, Federal Way High School has been continuing to advance. Staff are attending many workshops and professional development opportunities to constantly improve curriculum and instruction.

      As the 2020-21 school year will begin soon, I would like parents, guardians, and students to be aware of and proud of the accomplishments completed last year and to challenge this year’s students to achieve even more.
