SPS Athletics Job Opportunities

Athletic participation is a great opportunity for our students to include with their academic careers and preparation for life after graduating high school. Your desire to work with student athletes in developing a well-rounded athletic team is what helps make this possible.

There is a process to fully vet you prior to working in any capacity within Athletics with our District. If you have questions or would like further information, email Kalani Igarta: kpigarta@seattleschools.org.
