The Skyline PTSA provides an SAT preparatory course for students at Skyline through SAT Prep, Inc., as well as a mock SAT test and mock ACT test for practice for our students.

PTSA volunteers collect Community Service Hours throughout the school year. Students can find volunteer opportunities under the Guidance Center tab at Skyline school website.

The Issaquah Schools Foundation is a non-profit organization that drives resources to help all students in the Issaquah School District reach the promise of their academic potential. They do this by bridging the gap between funds the state provides for basic education and the dollars our schools need to prepare students for success in school and life.

The VIS group is made up of volunteers throughout the school district that organize and run the Issaquah school bond and levy campaigns. For more information or how you can help, please visit their website. http://www.visvote.org/

Skyline PTSA regularly communicates state and local legislative activity to its members. Sometimes, there are calls to action as well, especially in levy or bond years.

Skyline PTSA funds Spartan Grants in 2 cycles – Fall and Spring. The PTSA on average budgets $10,000 each year ($7,000/Fall and $3,000/Spring). These grants directly benefit both staff and students and are funded through PTSA fundraisers. Spartan Grants provide an opportunity for SHS staff applicants to purchase materials and equipment that support Skyline’s academic program that are not funded by more traditional sources.

Skyline PTSA annually facilitates the National PTA Reflections Program. A fine arts competition is held at Skyline and entries are selected to move onto the Council level.

Parent volunteers help support and fundraise for the staff and students of the International Baccalaureate Program. Over 60% of the juniors and seniors participate in IB, and the PTSA provides the necessary parent support for this growing program.
