Make Connections- Get to know the teachers & staff better and make life-long friends with other parents at the school

It's that time of year again! We are looking for 18+ host families for our interns in the 2020-2021 school-year. As a host family you gain a new, unique friendship and learning experience by welcoming an intern from a Spanish speaking country into your home. Additionally, your child will benefit from extra practice and help with their Spanish language skills.
There is flexibility to the hosting duration with 13 week and half-year options. This will allow us to make better family/intern matches as well as potentially improve the experience for both interns and families. If you are interested, please refer to the
FAQ page for more information, then complete the
Amity Host Family Application.
Puesta Del Sol supporters, although many things in the future are unknown, we are still planning for next school year, 2020-2021! We invite you to volunteer at Jubilee Service Day at Puesta Del Sol to help teachers and staff prepare for the school year. More information to follow. Registration will open in JUNE 2020.

Bellevue Schools Foundation
The Bellevue Schools Foundation is a non-profit organization that raises private funds to support our schools.
Since our inception, we have raised over $30M for our school district. Public funding in the United States is not enough to guarantee that our students receive a top-notch education.
The Bellevue Schools Foundation helps make up the difference by asking parents, local businesses, and community members to support our schools.
