Our Vision
The Edmonds Elementary STARS Foundation is dedicated to enriching the educational experience at Edmonds Elementary School by Supporting the Teaching of Art, Reading, and Science. We raise funds specifically to meet this objective, ensuring that every student has access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive.
STARS offers a unique opportunity to bring your ideas to life and enhance your child's learning experience. We bridge the gaps left by state and district funding to support field trips, learning programs, and classroom resources. We encourage anyone with an idea to submit a grant proposal, with submissions accepted twice a year. We are dedicated to championing our students and teachers, collaborating with families and educators to provide engaging, hands-on educational experiences for every student at Edmonds Elementary. Our passion is making Edmonds Elementary a place where creativity and learning thrive.

Our foundation is committed to equitable distribution of funds, supporting all students across Edmonds Elementary. Teachers, parents, and even community members who identify a need within the scope of our mission can apply for grants, which are typically approved by the STARS board twice a year.
As we continue to strengthen our support for educators in teaching art, reading, and science, we strive to meet our students’ families where they are. We invite you to contribute in ways that best suit you—whether it’s participating in our Holiday STARS Class Wish Lists, attending or bidding at our Spring STARS Auction, or donating throughout the school year. Our goal is to empower our community to choose when and how to contribute, making a meaningful impact without feeling overwhelmed.
