Key Areas of Focus

Our strategic plan, “Envision Shoreline – Engage. Inspire. Empower.” is built around three areas of focus that create an integrated framework designed to ensure that students are prepared to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally:

  • Every Student Supported
  • All Students Literate
  • Each Student Thriving

During the budget emergency we are currently facing as a school district, the clarity of three areas of focus and our shared vision will help us navigate our path forward.

Thank You, Local Voters!

Strong support for recent bonds from voters in Shoreline and Lake Forest Park have allowed the school district to maintain and update buildings as well as build all-new, modern facilities that foster safety and security and support learning.

See the recent capital projects that have been completed or are in process, thanks in large part to local voter support!

National Hispanic Heritage Month Sept 15 - Oct 15 with floral decoration
Hispanic Heritage Month

Please join us in celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month and expressing our appreciation for our Hispanic and Latinx students, staff, families, and community members!

Each year, the United States observes National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15 by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America, and Spain.

The observance started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on approval of Public Law 100-402.

The day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of the independence of: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and September 18, respectively.
