Community support creates student opportunities
Our community continues to come together to make after school programs Beyond the Bell and Club B possible for Tacoma kids.
This work couldn’t happen without partners like the YMCA of Pierce and Kitsap Counties, Boys & Girls Clubs of South Puget Sound, and other youth-serving organizations that provide engaging programs in a supportive environment to TPS students.
We are grateful to all those who financially support these important programs, including Pierce County, Tacoma Creates and the City of Tacoma, Tacoma Public Schools, and private donors.
Private philanthropy and individual donors play a critical part in providing opportunities and creating lasting impacts for our students. We are honored to be among the recipients of a generous donation from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott which partially supports the cost of providing Beyond the Bell and Club B programming. We are also grateful for the critical support of Sen. Maria Cantwell, whose congressional earmark was instrumental to expanding these critical programs.
Tacoma Public Schools is profoundly grateful for the hard work and generosity of our many partners and providers who support our students and families.
