Support our Schools

Families and community members play a vital role in creating an effective educational experience for our students. Learn about the different ways you can support our schools.

Volunteer

We are committed to offering many ways for families and community members to be involved in the education of Seattle’s children. Visit our School Directory for contact information. Learn how to get started as a volunteer at one of our schools or lend a hand at the District level.

Community Alignment Partnership Program

Seattle Public Schools partners with  before- and after-school care providers, pre-schools and summer programs to create learning support services that align and integrate with school learning standards.

Donations

For information about how to contribute financially or donate classroom materials to a school, please contact the school directly. The District accepts technology donations and we welcome contributions to the Seattle Schools Scholarship Fund and our partner, the Alliance for Education.

The Alliance for Education is an independent, non-profit organization that brings together parents, teachers, and members of the community who are dedicated to identifying academic issues and supporting new learning programs for children in Seattle Public Schools.

Partnerships

We actively pursue opportunities to partner with local organizations and work together in ways that best serve our students. To learn more about current partnerships and ways that your organization can work with Seattle Public Schools, contact Courtney Cameron, Manager School & Community Partnerships, (206) 252-0513.
