ABOUT DKG
Delta Kappa Gamma was established in 1929 with major objectives to improve opportunities for qualified women employed at every level of education, as well as advance the status of women educators. To this end, the purposes set forth by the founders continue to embody the spirit of the Society today.

Washington State Organization was established in 1941. The ceremony was held at Seattle's Washington Hotel and represented by school districts from Bellingham, Ferndale, Seattle, Shelton and Yakima, and Eastern
Washington College. Today there are 29 chapters and approximately 600 members that represent all areas of Washington State.

Membership is considered a prestigious honor with a variety of benefits and privileges.
