    Community Learning Center (HOST)

    The Seattle Parks and Recreation Community Learning Center (CLC) at Washington Middle School aims to bridge the gap between communities and school, by creating programs that are culturally relevant and reflective of the community we serve.

    The WMS CLC offers the following seasonal programs:

    • Huskies Out of School Time (HOST): Fall-Winter and Spring
    • Parks Academy of Learning Summer Program (PALS)
