Dear Families,
Soon, many of the ParentSquare text messages you get from our school will come from regular 10-digit phone numbers. This will make it easier to see who is messaging you. For example, a message from your child’s teacher will come from a different phone number than a message from the school office.
What’s changing?
Right now, most texts come from a 5-digit number. Soon, you’ll start getting texts from different regular 10-digit phone numbers for:
Messages from the district, digests and alerts will still come from the 5-digit number.
What should you do?
When you receive a message from one of these new 10-digit numbers, save it to your contacts. Here are some suggestions:
Save a teacher’s number as: Ms. Davis - 4th Grade
Save classroom/group posts as: Lincoln Elementary Classes
Save school posts number as: Lincoln Elementary Updates

Please join us in celebrating the retirement of Dottie Lang, a dedicated and caring bus driver who has been with the Cle Elum-Roslyn School District for 19 years.
For nearly two decades, Dottie has been a constant source of warmth and dependability for our students and families—offering a reassuring presence each morning and a cheerful send off at the end of the day. Her kindness, patience, and consistency made a lasting impact on all those lucky enough to ride her bus.
Dottie, your service and care have meant so much to our school community. You will be truly missed, and we wish you all the best in your well-earned retirement.
