Whether you are new to the school, district, neighborhood, or all three, we are excited that you are considering our school, and hope you’ll feel welcome here. Please reach out to us with any questions you may have as you consider Montlake.
After-School Care
One of the questions we often receive is regarding after school care. The PTA is currently gathering feedback about our community’s after-school care needs and would love your feedback. Note that the survey closes May 9th.
Details on all SPS After-School Care programs can be found here: https://www.seattleschools.org/departments/childcare/
On-site Care Provider: Launch Learning
Launch Learning is our on-site after school childcare provider. Enrollment for the 2025-2026 school year is now open, and you can apply here: ENROLLMENT | Launch Learning.
Enrichment Programs
The Montlake PTA also runs an on-site enrichment program after school, with classes running from the end of the school day until around 3:30–4PM each day (2:30–3PM on Wednesday). In the past, classes have included, art, choir, dance, gymnastics, cooking, Lego club, and so much more!
The enrichment program classes change quarterly, and each class has an enrollment fee paid to the class provider. Classes for the enrichment program start a few weeks after school begins in the fall and run through a few weeks before the end of the school year. Reach out to enrichment@montlakepta.org with questions regarding our programming.
