“Our vision is to prepare students, in partnership with family and community,
for global citizenship in an increasingly interdependent world.”

Seattle Public Schools has initiated a process for studying the impacts, risks, and benefits of sustaining and expanding Seattle’s International Schools and Dual Language Immersion programs through the establishment of an International Schools / Dual Language Immersion Task Force. The role of the task force is to gather, analyze, review, and consider information and data and to prepare a report to the Superintendent of Schools regarding Seattle’s International Schools and Dual Language Immersion programs. The Superintendent will use this report, along with other important data, to make recommendations to the School Board for potential changes in the 2017-18 school year.
There will also be community outreach meetings throughout the city through April and May, 2016. Interpreters will be provided at each site for Spanish, Mandarin, and Japanese and additional languages as needed.
