Bellevue School District To Celebrate Ribbon Cutting Of New Welcome Center UPDATE - 09/24/25

Bellevue, Wash. — September 23, 2025— The Bellevue School District (BSD) is proud to announce the official ribbon cutting of its new Welcome Center, a hub dedicated to supporting families, students, and community members as they transition into the district. 

 

With families representing 125 countries of birth and 117 home languages spoken, the Welcome Center will serve as one of the first points of contact for new families, partnering with schools to provide resources in multiple languages, enrollment support, and guidance on academic programs and services. It also stands as a community-centered space to foster belonging, inclusivity, and connection. 

 

“This Welcome Center is more than just a building—it is a symbol of our commitment to every family who chooses Bellevue schools. “We want each student and caregiver to feel seen, supported, and valued from their very first interaction with us,” said Dr. Kelly Aramaki, Superintendent of the Bellevue School District. 

 

The ribbon-cutting ceremony will bring together families, staff, community partners, and local leaders to celebrate this milestone. Attendees will have the opportunity to tour the facility, meet staff, and learn more about the resources offered. 

 

“The Welcome Center is here to walk alongside families as they join our district,” said Dr. Ricardo Macias, Director of the Welcome Center. “From enrollment to accessing essential resources, our team is here to ensure every student starts and finishes their BSD journey with a sense of belonging and confidence.” 

The ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place on Friday, September 26, at 12:00 pm, at the Bellevue School District.  

 

The Bellevue School District, with over 20,000 students and 28 schools, is a diverse and dynamic district in East King County, Washington. Its mission is "To serve each and every student academically, socially, and emotionally through a rigorous and relevant education that is innovative and individualized. As a learning community that values one another's humanity, we provide courageous support for an equitable and exceptional education for all students."
