Winter 2019 Quarter
Dear Seattle Colleges Community
Yesterday Seattle voted and passed the Families, Education, Pre-School and Promise Levy.
This action will support equitable education for all Seattle public schools’ students from birth through high school graduation and then on to what for us is the most exciting part – the first two years of a community college education at Seattle Colleges.
Thanks to all of you who supported, advocated and ultimately, cast your vote. We are excited to get started on the work ahead.
The Seattle Colleges have been awarded approximately $4.3 million in federal grants to increase retention, completion and transfer rates for all students, with a special emphasis on students of color, first-generation students, and those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds.
