Seattle Colleges Foundation Report to Community 18-19 2018-2019 Report to the Community We catalyze community support to advance the mission, work, and impact of Seattle Colleges. We engage our community to transform lives, promote equity, and increase access to quality, affordable education in Seattle. Our Impact Thanks to the Seattle Colleges, Myron Curry is having a second act. As a young man, he got into trouble and wound up in prison. He resolved that, once out, he would turn his life around. Now he’s doing just that as a student at Seattle Central, majoring in IT Networking. He hopes to one day open his own business. But the College has also nurtured another side of Myron: artist. As you can see from the self-portrait at right, he’s brimming with talent — so much so that he was recently featured in a show at the College’s M. Rosetta Hunter Art Gallery. Myron’s success wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of donors who support the Desmond Jackson Memorial Scholarship and other scholarships that benefit him and hundreds of other hard- striving students at the Seattle Colleges — Central, North, and South. Thank you! © 2019 by M. Curry Designs By the Numbers Seattle Colleges is an open-access institution. We recognize that significant gaps in educational attainment persist for first-generation students, students of color, and students from more modest economic backgrounds. Your contributions remove financial barriers to college enrollment and reduce student debt. $1.3 M 420 53% S C H O L A R S H I P S S T U D E N T S A W A R D E D T O D I S T R I B U T E D A W A R D E D S T U D E N T S O F C O L O R Seattle Colleges Foundation | Report to the Community Revenue and Expenses Revenue: $5,275,902 Expenses: $2,082,597 Individual Corporate: 3.2% Foundations 6% $1,879,249 0% Management 18.4% Program Services: Investment Returns: $1,354,959 Investment Return 34.2% $1,803,062 Fundraising: Foundations: $344,717 $314,084 Management and Corporate 35.6% Fundraising Event Revenue: 16.6% General: $350,840 $382,921 Program Services Individual: 65.1% $166,891 In-Kind Revenue 14.2% Other: Other 0.2% Event Revenue, Net 6.6% $11,733 Transfer Revenue from merger: $20,431,599 Net Assets: $23,774,906 *June 30 2019 audited financial statement that reflect recent merger actions Our Leadership Dr. Shouan Pan, Chancellor, Kerry Howell, Vice Chancellor, Keith Schreiber, Chair, Seattle Colleges Advancement, Seattle Colleges Seattle Colleges Foundation Board Of Directors Ex Officio Members Keith Schreiber, Chair Dr. Shouan Pan, Chancellor, Seattle Colleges Rick Davis, Vice Chair Louise Chernin, Board of Trustees, Seattle Colleges Barbara Dingfield, Secretary Dr. Warren Brown, President, North Seattle College Melba Bartels, Treasurer Dr. Sheila Edwards Lange, President, Seattle Central College Scott Ely Dr. Rosie Rimando-Chareunsap, President, South Seattle College Michael Huges Kerry Howell, Chief Executive Officer, Seattle Colleges Foundation Jon Fine Sarah Jane Gunter Board of Trustees Joseph Jahn Steven Hill, Chair Frederick Kiga Rosa Peralta, Vice Chair Richard Locke Teresita Batayola Rahim Rajan Louise Chernin Shiao-Yen Wu Robert M.

GETTING PARENTS ]NVOL VED IN RACIALLY INTEGRATED SCHOOLS INTRODUCTION "The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race. "1 In 2007, the United States Supreme Court decided Parents Involved in Community Schools v. Seattle School District, a case that considered the constitutionality of school assignment policies that voluntarily considered the race of students. The Court held that voluntary race-conscious school assignments in school districts like Seattle, which were never subjected to a court-ordered desegregation mandate, violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.2 Part I of this comment proposes that the Supreme Court's plurality decision in Parents Involved-the most recent in a series of school integration and civil rights decisions-promotes the theory of colorblindness, and rejects voluntary adoption of race-conscious remedies Lo promote racial integration in public schools.

  • King County Official Local Voters' Pamphlet
    August 7, 2012 Primary and Special Election King County Official Local Voters’ Pamphlet For more information call 206-296-VOTE (8683) or visit www.kingcounty.gov/elections 2 A letter from the Director Dear King County Voter: The August primary and November general election represent the grand fi nale of our four year election cycle in this Presidential election year. In keeping with the drama and intensity of Presidential year elections, this election cycle, national headlines have focused on stories about what some consider to be safeguards and others deem barriers to voter registration and voting. Registered voter purges, requirements to provide government issued photo identifi cation, redistricting with the appearance of isolating minority communities, and screening requirements for voter registration are examples of programs creating controversy. Naturally, advocacy groups have lined up on both sides of these actions. Department of Justice law suits and Supreme Court rulings have reined in some states to address any semblance of voter discrimination. A prominent issue related to these actions is citizenship, and the fear that non-citizens are taking part in our political process. Citizen concerns about voting rights and voter fraud have increased. Recently, King County’s Election Department has received inquiries about the efforts we take to research the validity of citizenship for voter registration in our county, offering the opportunity to clarify myths about voter fraud. I’ve seen immigrant citizens avoid their legal right to vote due to fears brought with them from their former place of citizenship. Reports and proof of non-citizens illegally invading the ballot box are extremely rare.

  • Raising the Achievement of English Language Learners in the Seattle Public Schools
    Raising the Achievement of English Language Learners in the Seattle Public Schools Report of the Strategic Support Team of the Council of the Great City Schools Submitted to the Seattle Public Schools By the Council of the Great City Schools Summer 2008 Raising Achievement Among English Language Learners in Seattle’s Public Schools ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Council of the Great City Schools thanks the many individuals who contributed to this project to improve achievement among English language learners in the Seattle Public Schools. The efforts of these individuals were critical to our ability to present the district with the best possible proposals. First, we thank Maria Goodloe-Johnson, Superintendent of the Seattle Public Schools, who asked for this review. It is not easy to subject one’s district to a review such as this one. It takes courage, openness, and commitment to the city’s children. She has those qualities in abundance. Second, we thank the Seattle School Board for supporting this effort and meeting with our team to discuss the issues presented in this report. The board has demonstrated a strong commitment to improving public education in Seattle. Third, we thank staff members and teachers in the Seattle Public Schools, who provided all the time, documents, and data that the Council team needed in order to do its work. Their openness and honesty were critical to our understanding of the challenges faced by the Seattle schools. Fourth, we thank the many individuals, groups, organizations, and associations with which we met. Our only regret is that we were unable to meet with everyone who we know had something valuable to contribute.

    Book Prospectus Seattle Schools: A New Western History of Education, 1850-1990 Nancy Beadie, ed. Contact: Nancy Beadie Educational Leadership and Policy Studies College of Education, Box 353600 University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195 [email protected] (206) 221-3428 (o) (206) 324-1580 (h) Seattle Schools Book Proposal 1 Introductory Remarks The book described here is the first book in the New Western History to make education its central focus. It is also the first book to imagine the history of education in the United States from a western perspective. Practitioners of the new western history have investigated many dimensions of social and institutional life, from industries to churches, clubs to labor unions, regulatory agencies to ethnic groups and neighborhoods. Seldom, however, have education or schools appeared as more than incidental examples within these histories. Similarly, historians of education have long noted differences among regions of the United States in patterns of school development, especially between North and South. Nonetheless, most education history still takes the Northeastern United States as the standard, treating other regions as deviations from the norm. Few scholars have assumed the challenge of re-imagining the history of U.S. education from a regional perspective. More specifically, no one has yet made education the central focus of a study shaped by the principles, theories and themes of the New Western history. This book assumes that challenge. Content Overview Framing the history of education in Seattle as a study in new western history highlights several distinguishing features of the case as compared with that of other cities and regions in the United States.
