Project Proud has been around for about 35 years. It was started to bring the then three elementary schools (Malott, O'Keefe, and Virginia Grainger) and their students together. Project Proud was organized to bring cultural experiences and community together via assemblies.  Since we live in a rural area, exposure to the arts, music, and cultures within and outside our area broadens the experiences of our students that they might not otherwise receive.

Currently, the members of the Project Proud committee are Amy Sullivan, Patty Caryl, Kris Clark and Shayla Rauch. 

Project Proud offers a school store every Friday morning before school to help provide funds for assemblies during Halloween, Veteran's Day, Christmas, Grandparent's Day, etc.  They also coordinate with Methow Valley Arts to bring in culturally rich assemblies from all over the world.  They have also brought in acts such as the Pacific Science Center and the Reptile Man. They work closely with the community to bring the annual Christmas Food Drive.  It is a wonderful way for students to learn how to give back to their community.
