Einstein Middle School on campus Monday, March 19

8th Annual Einstein Middle School Campus Tour

390 (yes, 390!) 8th graders from our local middle school, along with 30 teachers and parents will experience our beautiful campus and programs during a tour on Monday morning at 9:15 a.m. They’re only here for an hour, so it’s a fun, quick whirlwind view of our College, followed by a visit to UW. The principal tells us that the teachers and students love this tour, even more than UW.

It’s amazing how many local high school students visit our campus throughout their elementary and middle school years (for Math Olympiad, STEM Festival, the Einstein trip), and then enroll here as college students.

Usually the Einstein visit happens during our Spring Break, but due to bus transportation issues, this falls upon our last day of instruction. Affected programs and departments have been notified about the visit.

Say hi to this crowd of 8th graders on Monday morning if you have an opportunity!  If you have questions, please contact Amy Stapleton (astaplet@shoreline.edu, ext. 7841).
