What started out as a handful of dedicated parents has grown into a full-on grassroots movement. With hundreds of community members, we provide clear, accessible ways to engage with our democratic process and ensure that our public education system is inclusive, equitable, and accountable to its students and families.

OSD4ALL was started out of a crisis in the ‘23/’24 school year. The Olympia School District and its board of directors were considering closing two schools to fix a $3.5m projected budget gap. The community rallied together to come up with solutions that included increasing enrollment, downsizing the district office, applying for federal grants and increasing revenue through early learning. There was advocacy at the state level that led to increased state funding, letters signed by district educators and 15 parent-teacher groups, and a successful legal appeal of the closure process brought forward by a group of parents. No schools were closed!

With that major win behind our sails, we’ve achieved nonprofit status and promise to nurture the momentum that we started. We’re partnering with other advocacy groups and community organizations to uplift the needs of our public education system. We’re participating in the legislative process to ensure that public education is fully funded. And we’re creating community with folks from all walks of life, including you. Thank you for being a part of this movement.
