About Us

Panther Lake Elementary, home of the Panthers, is located in Federal Way’s Kitts Corner neighborhood and serves scholars in grades PK-5. Our mission is to cultivate a safe learning environment that embraces cultural diversity, encourages scholars to take risks, and maintains high expectations for teaching and learning by: Providing culturally responsive instruction; fostering scholar voice; partnering with our community to broaden the learning experience for each scholar; and implementing school programming that develops the whole child in partnership with all stakeholders. Scholars also benefit from an array of school activities, clubs, and strong family, PTA,  and community partnerships.
