SUMMARY:Seattle Education Forum: Block Party with SESEC and Community Partners
DESCRIPTION:Seattle Education Forum: Block Party with SESEC and Community Partners \nJoin the Southeast Seattle Education Coalition (SESEC) and community partners for the Seattle Education Forum: Report Card\, a free\, community-led gathering designed to bring families\, students\, and neighbors into authentic face-to-face conversation with elected and appointed leaders shaping education policy in Seattle and across Washington state. \nThis interactive forum is not a traditional panel or town hall.

Together\, participants will explore what our community would “grade” current leadership on education priorities and how we move forward in partnership to support students. \nSVP Seattle is proud to uplift this event as an organizational partner in collaboration with SESEC and fellow community organizations working to strengthen public education and advance equity across the region. \nLocation: Byrd Barr Place\, Seattle\, WA\nDate and Time: Tuesday\, June 23 | 6 PM – 9 PMCost: Free (Registration available) \nRegister/Learn More: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/seattle-education-forum-block-party-tickets-1989964309819 \nQuestions?
