Welcome to 2019-20 Year at QAE!

We know that start of school is a busy time with a fair share of information overload. We've put together a single form where you can pay your student's fees and fill in your directory information. You can also join the PTSA and let us know how you plan to volunteer.

​Please take a few minutes to complete the QAE Back-to-School Form. It only needs to be done once per family. Questions? Contact the PTSA at communications@qaeptsa.org
Here's some more details what's included on the form:

Changes for 2019-20
  • The classroom supplies fee has been increased to $65. It had been $50 since the school opened, so we needed to increase to keep up with costs.
  • We've simplified to have a single place you can donate to help cover the student fees and yearbook of those families who are unable to afford them. Thanks in advance for your generosity.

Student Directory Information
We'll ask for parent names and contact information. The QAE PTSA uses email addresses collected on this form to build the lists for the classroom coordinator emails as well as teacher, specialist, school and PTSA announcements, including our weekly newsletter, The Rocket Reader. The information in the directory will be shared exclusively within the school community, and commercial use of the information is strictly prohibited. ​

Pay Your Student Fees
The total is $165 per student. For the convenience of our families, the PTSA collects this money for the school and passes along the funds. At the beginning of each school year, instead of giving families a supply list to fulfill, our teachers ask for a $65 classroom supplies fee to allow our teachers to buy appropriate classroom supplies throughout the year, as they need them. In addition to the classroom supply fee, there is a $100 technology fee to cover the cost of the iPads and laptops used in the classroom. ​

​No QAE student shall be denied access due to an inability to pay fees. If financial assistance is needed, please contact Ms. Roy by phone (206-252-2480) or email ( jbroy@seattleschools.org) with full confidentiality guaranteed.
