May is Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month! While initially only federally observed for one week in May, honoring Asian-Pacific American Heritage was expanded to be observed for the entire month of May beginning in 1990. May was designated to commemorate the immigration of the first Japanese to the US on May 7, 1843, as well as the anniversary of the transcontinental railroad's completion on May 10, 1869. A majority of workers who laid tracks for the railroads were Chinese immigrants.*
This month is an opportunity to learn more about the countless Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders who have shaped and enriched the history of the United States. You can visit the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center online to learn more.

Our excursion to Bainbridge Island was a tremendous success thanks to the beautiful weather and coordinated efforts of our EHS German Instructor, Alysha Holmquist, GAPP partner teachers, and the school district. The trip included 21 visiting German students and their teachers, as well as our own Alysha Holmquist and Allison Crane who braved both land and sea to tour the island and the city and give our visitors something to remember. Even their ferry ride home was something to talk about as it arrived late which caused them to miss their train back to Auburn Station. Fortunately, they were able to catch the next one and their ESD bus driver, Vera, was very accomodating and waited for us and delivered us safely back to the school. Ms Holmquist was extremely grateful to the EHS building admin. team, the ESD transportation department, and of course their fabulous driver Vera, for their creative efforts which allowed for the students to have this great experience. The students had some free time in the city and the weather was so good!
