"Both of my sons
attended Port Townsend schools and my granddaughter does, too. Whatever we can do to make today's education relevant and inspiring—I want to make that happen!"

Seeking Classroom Mentors and Volunteers  

Through our partnership with Skillmation, commnuity members are able to sign up to volunteer, mentor, or be a community partner.  Skillmation provides support for background checks. This is the main database teachers and students use when looking for people to support classroom learning.

Guiding principles

There is a direct correlation between a student's education and the health of a community.

 Learning is powerful when it is relevant and applicable.

Hands-on craftsmanship is a complement to intellect.

Our natural setting  is unique, and offers incredible opportunity for learning.
