Pearl Gala, Auction & After Party
April 26, 2025
For three decades, the Alliance for Education has been a steadfast partner to Seattle Public Schools, supporting their evolution as a beacon of excellence and opportunity. This Pearl milestone honors what we’ve achieved together since 1995 and looks toward the luminous potential ahead.
We invite you to join us for a joyful evening to reflect on 30 years of community partnership and care, celebrate the current excellence across our school district, and raise funds to further our mission of advancing racial equity and educational justice for Seattle Public Schools students.
Like a pearl, our schools shine brightest when they are cared for, invested in, and celebrated as the foundation of our shared future. See you on the dance floor!

2025 Theme: Pearl
Seattle Public Schools are the pearl of our community—a precious gem nurtured by generations of support, care, and investment. Like a pearl, our schools reflect the resilience, collaboration, and shared commitment of students, educators, families, and the broader Seattle community.
A pearl forms layer by layer, growing stronger and more luminous over time. For 30 years, the Alliance for Education’s journey has mirrored the formation of a pearl—each layer strengthened by unwavering dedication to Seattle’s students and the belief that public education is the heart of a thriving community. Our strength lies in these layers of support: innovative programs, community engagement, and a shared vision for equity and excellence.
