Highline Schools Foundation provides school supplies to students in need throughout the district. School supplies and backpacks are distributed directly to schools ahead of the start of the school year, allowing school staff to distribute materials as needed. The Foundation also provides school supplies throughout the school year, through school social workers, family resource liaisons, and other school staff.
