Pedro and Adam Two Hazel Valley students, Thais Pedro (6th grade) and Nabil Adam (5th grade), have been selected to represent the Seattle SCORES program at a national poetry slam in New York City in April. They are the only two students selected from the Seattle area.

Seattle SCORES is a non-profit organization that provides after-school programs in 15 elementary schools in South King County, including Hazel Valley, Beverly Park, Bow Lake, Cedarhurst, Mount View, and White Center Heights. SCORES is a unique program that combines soccer and poetry. It is the only after-school program to use the world's most popular sport - soccer - to inspire literacy in elementary school children.
