Board of Distinction

The Washington State School Directors’ Association (WSSDA) has announced that the Eatonville School District Board of Directors has been designated a Board of Distinction for 2025!

In its recognition, WSSDA stated, “We enjoyed reviewing your district’s application materials and thought that your board provided a compelling example of strategic leadership with a clear and actionable strategic plan. The positive description of engaging the community, excellent connection with board standards, and your recognition that learning can't happen until the opportunity to learn is in place shows thoughtful and intentional governance. Great work!”

This honor celebrates school boards across Washington that demonstrate exemplary governance practices, strong community partnerships, and a commitment to student success. Eatonville’s five-member Board will receive formal recognition on November 20 at the WSSDA Annual Conference.

After learning about the announcement, Superintendent Jay Brower shared: “Wow! This is incredible news! Thank you so much! Our five elected school board members and our executive assistant to the board certainly deserve this honor! Their consistent dedication and focus on student achievement and wellness is paying off in a big way! Eatonville Strong!”

Please join us in congratulating our Board of Directors for this well-deserved recognition. The Eatonville School District Board of Directors continues to model strong, collaborative leadership that supports the district’s vision of empowering every student to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
