Shoreline Special Education PTSA

Our mission is to build community within and between student groups, caregivers and staff, and to advocate for special education students and for equitable, inclusive education for all.  

We envision a Shoreline School District community where every child is valued and authentically included, without segregated special education.  We envision a process where caregivers feel empowered and prepared to support student-centered special education planning in partnership with educators.

Updates

Shoreline Parks ADA Plan Update + Final Member Meeting of the Year. Wednesday, May 6, 7:00 pm over Zoom (registration required) Following our final member meeting of the year, where we’ll elect next year’s officers, we’re excited to welcome Nick Borer the Parks, Fleet, and Facilities Manager for the City of Shoreline, for an important update on accessibility in our local parks. Nick will share recent improvements, including updates at Richmond Highlands Park and Kruckeberg Botanic Garden, along with insights from last year’s Parks ADA Transition Plan survey. He’ll also walk us through highlights of the final transition plan and what it means for making Shoreline parks more accessible for everyone. Please join us for this informative conversation and to help shape the year ahead!

Membership for the 2025-2026 school year is open! If finances, or anything, is a barrier to membership, please email us. All information will be kept confidential. $16 for an individual, $26 for a two-person joint membership. 

Volunteer Opportunities:  We have several volunteer opportunities that can scale to the time and energy you have to give! Have only a couple of hours twice a year? Have a couple of hours a month? Have more time? We would love to discuss how you can support students, teachers, staff, and families in our district. Most opportunities can happen at times set by you. Please see our volunteer requests for current ideas. If you have a skill or idea you want to develop or contribute, please email us and let's talk!
