SPS Native American Education

We work with students, families, teachers, principals, and district staff to meet Native students’ needs.

We connect families with district resources and increase school understanding of Native students’ experiences. Our goal is to ensure all Native students have a high-quality educational experience and reach the goal of graduation.

The Seattle Public Schools Special Education Department will be joining us for a panel discussion and Q&A designed to help families learn more about special education services, supports, and resources. This is a great opportunity to hear directly from district staff, ask questions, and connect with other families.
