We organize for racial equity in Seattle schools by harnessing the collective power of families and communities. Our top priority is to ensure funds raised by parents and caregivers are distributed to schools in a racially equitable way that helps close the opportunity gap for our city’s young people.
The Seattle Public Schools District has a huge opportunity gap between white students and students of color: the worst in the state, and the fifth worst in the nation.
We want to create a future where all Seattle Public Schools students can succeed.
We believe that one important step toward that future is creating a system whereby Seattle Public School PTAs contribute a portion of their proceeds to an Equity Fund. This fund would then be distributed to schools where the opportunity gap is widest.
