Understanding the Mysteries of your Teen's Brain

If your student attends a school within the Newport feeder pattern, you’ll probably receive this invitation from your current PTA, but there are a few folks on the list from private schools who might not otherwise receive it. This is for all parents of teens in the Bellevue School District, so feel free to pass it around!
