Some of Interact's projects include collaborating with the Red Cross to put together kits for refugees, raising money for malaria victims in Africa, serving senior citizens a Thanksgiving dinner, and collecting food for food pantries.

Through the Rotary Youth Exchange Program, Michelle traveled to France  last sumer.

Michelle participates in varsity tennis. She started playing her sophomore year, but almost quit because she didn't think she was good. She decided to persevere, and during her junior year made varsity. She is still .

Earlier this school year, seven students from the Tukwila School District were invited to speak at the Washington State School Directors Association conference in a segment called “We Are the World: Student Voices From Tukwila”.

In June, Michelle will graduate Foster High School and hopes to attend a four-year university.

Tukwila voters appear to have given a “thumbs-up” to schools in Tuesday’s vote.

More ballots are still left to be counted, but the preliminary numbers show a trend that is not likely to be reversed.
