Mariana, Kindergarten Student
I like to play outside and play toys with my friends and read books at the library and sing at music. I like to do work in class and play choice time.

There are great teachers and principals at Somerset. I belong at Somerset! I love to play and talk with my friends.

Deepa Patten, BSD Parent and Bellevue Schools Foundation Trustee
Watching kindergarteners use basic programming skills to move robots is an experience that you can only get in the Bellevue School District. The high-quality educational opportunities that our students have access to is only possible through the support of the community. The Bellevue Schools Foundation has been the key community partner to fund educational innovation in a way you can't find anywhere else in the state, so our students learn the skills to be 21st century thinkers starting in preschool.
