Seattle Public Schools is committed to providing excellence in education for every student.
Multilingual Feature
We serve the city of Seattle. Our students speak more than 140 languages or dialects. The top five languages spoken by families and students are: Spanish, Somali, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Amharic.
Seattle Public Schools publishes important information to help families support their students on key webpages with text that has been translated by a person rather than a computer.
Not all our webpages are published in this way. If you visit a webpage that does not have the language links, you may use Google translate, located in the top right corner.

We are proud of our award-winning schools, great educators, strong academic programs, and engaged community.
Will your child be 5 by August 31? Will your family be new residents of Seattle? Then it’s time to enroll for next school year.
