Success For Each Child & Eliminate the Opportunity Gap by Leading with Racial Equity
The Puget Sound Educational Service District (PSESD) supports and celebrates the NFL’s Washington Football Team deciding to retire the Redskin team name and plan to move forward with a name that is not a racial slur against Indigenous People and Native Americans.
Back in March, all Educare Learning Network schools closed their physical locations in response to COVID-19. Just a month later, Educare Seattle was the first Network school to reopen their building, providing on-site childcare for enrolled children and families of essential workers. We touched base with Educare Site Manager Aeryn King to hear about her journey to her current position and the lessons learned along the way.
Puget Sound Educational Service District (PSESD) is seeking a diverse group of representatives who are committed to racial equity, to consider becoming members of the PSESD Board of Directors.
Four mothers share their experiences being parents in the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW). With help from PSESD's Early Head Start at WCCW, the mothers are able to build healthy relationships with their children, receive parenting and childcare support, participate in child development education, and prepare for their futures upon release.
A new position offered by PSESD, titled Behavioral Health Navigator, is now open for applications. Click here to apply. The Navigator position is designed to assure a dedicated focus on enhancing school/healthcare partnerships and increase access to care for students by understanding current obstacles impeding access and working collaboratively to eliminate those barriers.
At the onset of the pandemic, Educare Seattle took a bold step in assessing the risks and rewards of reopening, to provide services to parents who are first responders. After adopting and implementing strict policies, procedures and practices for health and safety of staff and students, the White Center-based service, carefully welcomed students back in early April. Read about the process here. Learn more about how Educare was founded and their guiding principles.
PSESD’S Science Department, in partnership with Institute for Systems Biology (ISB), offered a number of four-hour workshops for STEM teachers. The powerful event connected workshop participants with practicing scientists and engineers from ISB to maximize professional development and learning.
