In the early 1970's, students at what was then known as Harrison Elementary School in Seattle's Madison Valley initiated a
project to research the process of renaming their school to honor one of their heroes. The students participated in every
stage of the process, including appearing before the Seattle School Board, and holding a school-wide election to
vote on the name change. Martin Luther King Elementary School plays a vital role in its community.
The school is located at 3201 East Republican St., Seattle WA 98112, and can be reached at (206) 281-6510.
