Dear friend of Lake Washington Schools Foundation,

Sarah StoneBoard President

Dr. Larry WrightExecutive Director

Dr. Traci PierceLWSD Superintendent

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the Lake Washington Schools Foundation. Your investment in public education supports unique programs, services, and opportunities for all students in Lake Washington School District. By being part of this partnership, you play a direct role, not only in making our district a top performing district, but also in fulfilling the vision of making Every Student Future Ready. As a result, all students, PreK-12, are learning, growing and achieving at high levels. Since 2005, the Foundation has awarded over $2 million to support district-wide initiatives and provide classroom tools across grade levels in science, technology, art, literacy, math, engineering and more. We fund programs chosen by our district that ensure students are ready for their futures, provide access to educational opportunities to all students and invest in our highly-qualified teachers. Our board continues to increase its investment goals so we can make a bigger impact on each of the nearly 28,000 students in the 53 schools in our district. But your investment goes beyond what happens inside the school building. Talented workers from around the globe are attracted to our community because of our high performing schools. That influx of talent in turn creates an attractive place to do business, grows the tax base and enhances civic engagement. This virtuous circle is vital to a healthy community. The Foundation’s commitment to a vital community continues as we bring on board our new executive director, Larry Wright. Larry has more than 15 years of experience in the nonprofit sector working with youth and education organizations in Washington State and in Washington, D.C. His passion for supporting public education matches our trustees’ and we are excited about what we can accomplish together. We have big dreams for our district and we know you do too. To help every student achieve their potential, we need you. Your continuing support makes all the difference.

With Gratitude,

With your help...

STEM Signature Programs:720 high school students

Reaching for Success grants allow teachers to develop innovative

projects that engage students, provide extra learning opportu-

nities and support each school’s goals. This year, grants funded:

kindergarten literacy and readiness, reading and homework clubs,

math enrichment, 3D printers, robotics and mock trials.

F U T U R E R E A D Y

The New Teacher Support Program guides new teachers in their

second year of teaching in our district. “Consulting teachers”

work one-on one with new teachers by modeling, co-teaching,

observing and mentoring -- resulting in improved classroom

instruction of our students and a strong start in their teaching

career with the district.

New Teacher Support Program: 6,500 students, 93 teachers

Reaching for Success Grants: 10,391 K-12 students

At all Lake Washington School District high schools, STEM Signa-

ture Programs and classes provided students an understanding

of STEM careers through project-based learning. Students inves-

tigated, innovated and thought critically about real-world prob-

lems in the areas of global health, environmental engineering and

sustainable design. Community and business partnerships provid-

ed site visits, real world case studies and professional training for

students.

The Access Fund, in partnership with InvestEd, enables

secondary students in need to get the most out of school by

providing small scholarships to pay for school-related expenses.

Scholarships help pay for items such as classroom materials,

musical instrument rentals, sports equipment and cap & gown

rentals. The Access Fund empowers principals and staff to

identify and immediately respond to student needs.

Access Fund: 990 middle and high school students

Safe School Ambassador Program: 3,800 Students

At Lake Washington School District high schools, the Safe

School Ambassador Program (SSA) engages socially-influential

student leaders and trains them to resolve conflicts, defuse

incidents and support isolated and excluded students. SSA

creates a more positive school community impacting the entire

school.

Looking Into the Needs of Kids and Schools ( LINKS) is a district-

wide, volunteer tutoring and mentoring program that matches

caring adults with at-risk students, to enhance the children’s

academic, social and emotional development. Volunteers directly

impact student learning by serving as Lunch Buddy mentors,

academic mentors, and classroom tutors.

EvergreenHealthSupports the Foundation and LWSD Students

EvergreenHealth, in partnership with LWSD and the Foundation, celebrated the first graduating class of students in the Global Health program at Juanita High School. Students studied STEM with hands-on experience and learning opportunities at EvergreenHealth and in the classroom. Students continue to have opportunities to work closely with health care professionals thanks to EvergreenHealth’s stewardship of taxpayer-supported levy funds. EvergreenHealth’s leadership also made a committment outside the classroom by serving on LWSD’s General Advisory Council and speaking on value of community partners at important Foundation fundraisng events.

We thank EvergreenHealth as they enrich the lives of our stu-dents by offering experiences that provide access to and the tools to pursue, the wealth of health, sciences and technology career opportunities in our com-munity and beyond.
