Sharing Our Stories

Hear from our learning community who share their thoughts on leading, learning and playing at Tyee Middle School.

Raising four future citizens of the world has shown me just how powerful a rising tide can be. In BSD, that tide is the Bellevue Schools Foundation. My children have benefited, directly and indirectly, from preschool tuition support for families, mental health resources, and early computer science education that prepared them for the world they’re stepping into. When BSF lifts our district, every family rises with it, and every child gains the chance to thrive.

I am truly excited to join the Tyee community. My goal is to collaborate with families and staff to continue to build a welcoming and affirming environment where students can learn, grow, and thrive.

At Tyee our kids are amazing! It’s such a fun atmosphere of learning where students are genuinely curious about issues facing our world and want to make a difference in people’s lives. With our Global Goals projects, our students design their own way to raise awareness of an important issue, and many raise donations and actually serve in our community in so many ways. Even on our badminton and volleyball teams, and with our Future Problem Solvers Club, it’s inspiring to see our kids work together so well and solve future challenges with enthusiasm, dedication, and the heart of a champion.

I love working at Tyee.  The best part of Tyee, like all schools, is the students.  They are curious, funny and like us all, learn from their mistakes.  It’s so fun to watch them grow from small adorable 6th graders, to capable humans as 8th graders.  I feel fortunate to be a part of their journey.
