Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
The Shorewood High School PTSA Board of Directors stands firmly behind the district’s decision to prioritize the safety and support of LGBTQIA+ and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) in our school community.
Our values of diversity, equity, and inclusion are rooted in a strong belief that, as a school community, we can only thrive if all families and students of historically marginalized groups fundamentally feel like they belong, and that they are seen and heard.

Are you looking for a minimal time commitment but highly impactful volunteer opportunity? Forefront Suicide Prevention is looking for caregiver/parent volunteers!
Suicide is the second leading cause of death of youths in Washington and the US. Shorewood and Shorecrest participate in Forefront in the Schools, a program designed by UW to guide schools through policy development and curriculum improvements to help address mental health and suicide prevention efforts.
Twice a year we give a suicide prevention presentation and we need presenters! For more information, click here.
