Students in Family & Consumer Sciences classes at Sedro-Woolley High School took part in the “Bite of Reality” financial simulation on Wednesday, May 20, hosted by volunteers from WECU.
During the hands-on activity, students were assigned careers and monthly incomes, then visited stations representing real-life expenses like housing, groceries, transportation, childcare, entertainment, clothing, utilities and more. Students had to make budgeting decisions while also navigating unexpected “fickle finger of fate” moments, including surprise expenses like car repairs or wedding gifts.
Volunteers helped students think through important financial topics such as saving money, avoiding high-interest credit card debt and asking good questions to make informed financial decisions.
One of the biggest takeaways for many students? The surprisingly high costs of transportation and childcare in the real world.
The simulation gave students a valuable opportunity to practice real-world financial literacy skills in a fun and engaging way. Thank you to WECU and all of the volunteers who helped make this experience possible for our students! We also appreciated Washington state Sen. Keith Wagoner for stopping by to volunteer at the event.

Big Lake Elementary School sixth grade students recently attended the Annual Skagit Youth Conservation Tour at Pomona Grange Park in Burlington for a full day of hands-on outdoor learning. 🌿
Students rotated through six interactive learning stations focused on environmental stewardship, natural resources and conservation. Activities included exploring local forestry and ecosystems, learning about soil and clean water protection, practicing Leave No Trace outdoor ethics, participating in a salmon life cycle game, and discovering the important role pollinators play in our food systems.
Experiences like these help students connect classroom learning to the world around them while building curiosity, teamwork and an appreciation for the environment. Thank you to the organizers and volunteers who made this meaningful learning opportunity possible for our students!

Evergreen STEM Elementary School Eagles recently transformed their school into a glowing celebration of art and creativity during the Vincent Van Gogh Glowing Art Show and STEM Night.
Organized by Evergreen STEM Elementary art and music teacher Nicole Trexler, the event featured glowing artwork inspired by Vincent Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” and “Sunflowers” through the Meet the Masters art curriculum. Students in grades 2-6 showcased artwork in the art and music room, while kindergarten and first grade students collaborated on a sunflower-themed art piece displayed in the hallway.
The project was made possible through a grant from the Sedro-Woolley Alumni & Schools Foundation, helping bring this unique experience to life for students and families.
The glowing gallery was more than an art display — it was a chance for every student to feel included, take pride in their creativity, and share their work with family members and the school community. Experiences like this help students connect learning, self-expression, and the importance of the visual arts in a memorable way.
Thank you to Ms. Trexler for creating such a memorable experience for Evergreen students and families. Great job, Eagles! 🎨✨
