Seattle Public Schools Skills Center
Our application for the 2024-25 school year is still open, and there is still room in some classes, like Teaching Academy: Careers in Education. Check our website for schedule and updates: http://skillscenter.seattleschools.org
Our Schedule
The Seattle Skills Center is a half-day option high school and follows the same annual schedule as Seattle Public Schools. Our daily schedule during the school year for morning classes is 8:50am to 11:20am, and for afternoon classes, 12:45 to 3:15pm, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday.
*On Wednesdays we release 75 minutes early, so morning classes release at 10:05am and afternoon classes release at 2:00pm.
Transportation
If you requested transportation when you applied for your class, we have communicated this to the Transportation Department, and if you are being provided transportation, you should receive information about your route from the Transportation Department.
As stated on our application, transportation for the Skills Center has been reduced this year. For the 2024-25 school year, students who requested and qualify for requested transportation will only receive a mid-day shuttle.

If you're considering a Skills Center school year course, talk with your counselor and family to make sure the class you’re interested in will fit your schedule at your home high school.
