The Seattle Department of Education and Early Learning would like to invite you to attend a community forum to discuss the principles and priorities of the upcoming Families and Education Levy. This 2018 Levy will focus on funding the educational needs of youth and families. It will do so by combining two existing levies – the Families and Education Levy and the Seattle Preschool Program Levy – into a single levy.

We would like to make sure constituents affected by the levy have the opportunity to shape and/or influence its content. To this end we are hosting two  input forums on Saturday January 20^th, to identify priorities and receive feedback on our programs to date from parents, families and community members.

We’d love for you to attend one of the meetings below and share your insights and offer input regarding the Families and Education Levy.
