The Sedro-Woolley School District is proud to recognize Elizabeth (Beth) Vaith as Big Lake Elementary School’s Outstanding Employee of the Year!
A 6th-grade teacher, Beth goes above and beyond her daily responsibilities to support students, families, and colleagues. Each year, she personally meets every student's family at the start of the year, establishing trust and building a strong foundation for a positive school community. One of her unique traditions invites each student to bring a special guest—whether a parent, relative, or family friend—to the classroom to share about their experiences, helping foster pride, belonging, and meaningful connections.
Beth's commitment to students extends well beyond the school day. She leads a variety of student clubs, including art, Lego, tutoring, and homework help, offering students enriching opportunities to learn, explore, and grow. She also regularly attends students' extracurricular activities, participates in parent group and auction meetings, and even hosts family connection dinners, strengthening ties between school and home.
Known for setting high expectations paired with support, Beth mentors young teachers, leads district-level committees, and serves as a district mentor, bringing passion, knowledge, and inspiration to her colleagues. In her classroom, she holds one-on-one student conferences, helping each student reflect on their academic progress, set goals, and realize their full potential. Through her guidance, Beth fosters independent thinkers who are well-prepared for the next steps in their academic journey.
Beth’s exceptional leadership, dedication, and heart for her students make her an invaluable part of the Big Lake Elementary community.
Congratulations, Beth, on this well-deserved honor!
We’re excited to celebrate at the Lyman Wildcat Assembly Wednesday at 10:35 a.m.
It’s Spring Picture Day at Clear Lake Elementary today! 📸

Whether stepping up to support colleagues, guiding students with care, or ensuring the success of school initiatives, Kyle goes above and beyond every day.
A natural leader, Kyle serves on the site-based leadership team and is the designated teacher in charge when needed. His deep understanding of the school’s needs, combined with his positive and solution-driven mindset, helps Lyman Elementary continue to grow and thrive.
Born and raised in the Sedro-Woolley School District, Kyle’s passion for this community runs deep—he truly "bleeds royal blue and white." His dedication to education, leadership, and school spirit make him more than deserving of this special recognition.
