Help Create Calming Spaces in Every Classroom

This year, Lafayette is expanding Universal Design for Learning (UDL) supports to help create safe, calming, and welcoming spaces in every classroom. These spaces give students access to tools and environments that support focus, self-regulation, and learning success.

To help bring these classroom spaces to life, Lafayette staff has created an Amazon Wishlist of items that directly support these efforts. Donations of any size make a meaningful difference and help ensure every student has access to these important resources.

Thank you for helping us create learning environments where every student can thrive!

We’re putting together next year’s Back to School Team, and we’d love your help creating a warm welcome for Lafayette families, especially our incoming kindergarteners!

The auction results are in, and together, we raised over $104,000!

We are incredibly grateful to our Lafayette community for making it happen, and especially to Arianna Gervasio and Nikki Rice for organizing the event.

Registration is now open for the West Seattle 5K Run. May 17th on Alki Beach, benefitting West Seattle High School. Run with the whole family!
