City of Shoreline launches Surprised by Shoreline website

The City of Shoreline recently launched a new site called Surprised by Shoreline that aims to “celebrate the many perks of our small city that borders Seattle to the north” and introduce people to the many reasons why residents love to call Shoreline home.

Shoreline Community College is mentioned on the site several times (so far we’ve seen ourselves under the categories “more bang for your buck” and “top-tier schools”), and this is a great new resource to point people to who are curious about the community around our college.
