Welcome Little Hawk Alliance Members to the 2025/26 School Year!
Welcome Little Hawk Families!
Welcome to the Mountlake Terrace Elementary 2025/26 school year! The Little Hawk Alliance has been hard at work and in transition. This year we are returning our core set of board members and volunteers and sprinkling in a few news as well, we are ready to start the school year with many plans and activities. Some of us were new last year and trying to figure things out, but most of us are no longer rookies and we are ready to take on new challenges and enhance our commitment to help our kids, the Administration and our fantastic teachers. Please join us so we can put together more events and activities at Mountlake Terrace Elementary school.
If you are new to the school, the Little Hawk Alliance is Mountlake Terrace Elementary’s Parent Teacher Organization. We are looking forward to continuing the working partnership that has been established with the Administration, our amazing Teachers, our invaluable Staff and our families to provide an excellent learning experience and additional enrichment opportunities for our children. If you are a returning family, you likely know that COVID changed a lot for us, but hopefully you are as excited as we are to re-establish and continue some of our best traditions and create new ones.
Our 2025/26 Little Hawk Alliance President is Ana Alcazar, who came in as a kinder parent last year and took the mantle of VP with Enthusiasm. Ana has a Bachelor’s Degree in Education and has spent time working in community Education and has spent time working in community organizations to bridge the gaps of culture and language. She also is an amazing party/event host and entertainer! We are lucky to have her in our community and in a role of leadership. As a diverse school and now in our third year of being a Dual-Language school, it is imperative that our organization is representative of our community and works to bring in all members. This includes ensuring that all of our events and communications are dual-language.
As an individual with a child at Mountlake Terrace Elementary, you are automatically a member of the Little Hawk Alliance. The Little Hawk Alliance works collaboratively to support the school through many events and volunteer opportunities. We are all trying to give our kids the best educational and social experience possible. This could not happen without the donation of time and resources from all of you. We would love for you to show your support by participating in the events and activities planned throughout the year. Your participation might be that of a committee member, volunteer, or as an attendee. Whatever level of participation you select, your time and involvement will certainly be appreciated.
In addition to events, we invite you to attend the Little Hawk Alliance meetings as you can. Typically, meetings are held the second or third Monday of the month from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. in the Mountlake Terrace Elementary School Library (see attached schedule).
Thank you for all that you do for our Little Hawks! I am looking forward to a year of new opportunities and getting to know many more of our members. Feel free to contact us if you are interested in volunteering.
Sincerely,
Ana Alcazar
Little Hawk Alliance President
