Help is needed to make sure every Shoreline School District student is back to school ready
Tuesday, August 13, 2024
Shoreline PTA Council and Shoreline Public Schools Foundation are collecting backpacks and financial donations to support students this year.
Donations of large backpacks for middle and high schoolers are low this year. And we need several more volunteers on Wednesday, August 21, 2024 to help sort supplies and deliver them to the schools.
Financial contributions can be made to the Foundation
Backpacks can be dropped off at the Foundation offices, located in the Shoreline Center at 18560 1st Ave, or shop from our wish list
Volunteers can sign up here
Thank you for being such a supportive community.

Do we want to feed the "gotta have a new one" monster? Yes, things are different today. At the same time, just because I didn't have a well-off family doesn't mean I didn't have friends. I was nice, friendly, and supportive, regardless of a cheap backpack.
Ever heard of Climate Change? I am not interested in buying expensive plastic (synthetic = plastic in terms of harm to the environment) status symbols for today's kids. They need to stop worrying about the expensive, new things, and start thinking about the world they will be in, in not so many years.
I got my backpack from a thrift store and added what I thought were cool decorations - like kids do with their phones, today.
Let's encourage helping the environment and REUSING more things!
