Einstein 8th Graders here for a tour on Fri., March 24

It’s time for the annual Einstein 8th grade tour of our campus on Friday, March 24 from approximately 9-11 a.m.

350 (yes, 350!) 8th graders from our local middle school, along with 40 teachers and parents, will experience our beautiful college campus and programs during a whirlwind tour. They only have an hour, so it is literally a fun, quick, and chaotic whirlwind view of our college for our future students. They go to the UW after our tour. The principal tells me that the teachers and students love this tour, more than UW.

Usually, this tour happens during our Spring Break but due to our change in schedule, this year’s tour falls on our last day of finals. I have communicated with key parties and departments to ensure student finals won’t be disrupted.

It has been amazing to meet students in our local high schools who have come to Shoreline Community College for Math Olympiad in 4-8th grade, STEM Festival, and the annual 8th grade Einstein trip and are now getting ready to register for classes here. Fabulous.

Say hi to this crowd of 8th graders on Friday morning if you have an opportunity!

If you have questions, please let Amy Stapleton know at astaplet@shoreline.edu or Ext. 7841. If you’d like to join us for this fun time, that’s great and appreciated.

Free parking days on campus March 27 – April 3

To facilitate the needs of students and their families in preparing for the new quarter, parking on campus will be free March 27 – April 3. No fees are required to park March 27 – April 3, and no citations will be issued for not paying parking fees. We ask that visitors to campus do still park in the appropriate parking areas during this period of free parking. If you know any students who still need to register for classes, let them know to take advantage of the free parking and come on down to campus to get registered now!

Safety & Security will post signage on the parking machines on Free Parking Days.

Thank you.
