K-12 PUBLIC SCHOOLS WITHIN THE SEATTLE AREA
It is important for Sherman to give back to his local community so he can consider a limited number of requests each year to visit public schools in the Seattle area.
If you represent a public K-12 school in the Seattle area and you would like to request a classroom visit, you can send your request to fallsapartproductions@gmail.com. PLEASE DO NOT SEND REQUESTS AT THIS TIME. We're not able to track them or to consider them at this time.
Please note that due to the large number of inquires received we may not be able to get back to you in a timely manner and we are not able to respond to all requests.
K-12 PUBLIC SCHOOLS OUTSIDE THE SEATTLE AREA
Sherman is not able to travel to visit public K-12 schools outside the Seattle area, but we are currently exploring ways in which Sherman can participate in your classroom from a distance, such as Internet chats and video conferencing - via the Internet and via conference rooms with distance learning facilities.
If your classroom has access to facilities that allow for Internet meetings or chats or if you are near a facility that you can use for distance learning, you are welcome to contact us to ask about these possibilities at fallsapartproductions@gmail.com. PLEASE DO NOT SEND REQUESTS AT THIS TIME. We're not able to track them or to consider them at this time.
Please note that due to the large number of inquires received we may not be able to get back to you in a timely manner and we are not able to respond to all requests.
NON-SPEAKING SCHOOL-RELATED REQUESTS
For school-related requests other than speaking, readings or classroom visits, please contact Sherman's office.
