Our Tutors

Over the course of the school year we had more than 100 volunteers from as many as 25 high schools, colleges and community ensembles participate as tutors with SMP! Our volunteers contributed more than 4,500 hours of service, allowing us to fulfill the promise of working one-one-one with each student.

We are honored to have had students from the following schools as part of our tutor team this past year: Ballard High School, Bishop Blanchet High School, Bush School, Chief Sealth International High School, Cleveland High School, Garfield High School, Global Connections High School, Holy Names Academy, Inglemoor High School, Interlake High School, Lakeside School, Meadowdale High School, Mercer Island High School, Nathan Hale High School, Northwest School, Nova High School, Overlake High School, Roosevelt High School, Seattle Academy of Arts & Sciences, Skyline High School, Cornish College of the Arts, North Seattle Community College, Seattle Central Community College, Seattle University and the University of Washington.

It is not only the younger children who benefit from participation in our program – the lives of SMP’s tutors are invaluably enriched as well. In addition to the inherent rewards of community service, tutors gain job experience and leadership skills, improve their own musicianship and strengthen their own optimism by directly addressing an inequality in their lives.
