The Office of African American Male Achievement works to ensure that the educational environment across the SPS supports the brilliance and excellence of Black boys and teens. In alignment with Seattle Excellence, the district's strategic plan and collective commitment to unapologetically support and serve students and families furthest from educational justice, the Office of AAMA is committed to the long journey required for the positive transformation of SPS, and has been working to achieve that vision every day since its founding in 2019.
