The Power of One Volunteer Program matches people from the community with volunteer opportunities in the schools to help students in need of assistance.
Volunteers work directly with students under the guidance of a classroom teacher to provide regular, consistent help during the school day.

- Reading with students in small groups
- Improving math skills through games and practice
- Assisting with special art projects
- Providing support in libraries
- Supporting Multi Language Learners

The benefits of joining Power of One include interacting with students in a positive way, being part of a group of dedicated volunteers, free educational trainings and workshops, and ongoing support from the Power of One program coordinator. Volunteers must undergo a Washington State Patrol background check.
Power of One is a partnership of the Shoreline-LFP Senior Activity Center and the Shoreline School District. This well-regarded program began in 1996 to connect senior members of the community with their neighborhood schools. It continues today as a model volunteer program and welcomes both seniors and non-seniors.
