ParentWiser Event: Supporting Students with Hidden Struggles in Our Classroom
The Issaquah PTSA Council ParentWiser Program invites ALL Issaquah School District families to join us for an essential evening dedicated to understanding the quiet challenges many of our students face every day.
Whether it is navigating social pressure, processing information differently, or managing internal hurdles, many students carry “hidden struggles” that aren’t always visible. This event is designed for every parent who wants to foster a more compassionate and supportive environment for all children, both at home and in the classroom.

District Support & Resources

Our Goal: To move beyond labels and build a more informed parent community where every student—and every challenge—is understood and respected.
