🗳️ February 10 Special Election – Ballot Reminder
Ballots for the February 10 Special Election must be received by 8:00 p.m. on Election Day.
Voters in the Sedro-Woolley School District will see two school district propositions on their ballot. Ballots may be returned by mail or placed in an official Skagit County ballot drop box.
📍 Nearby ballot drop box locations
• Sedro-Woolley Post Office
111 Woodworth Street
(Located in the alley between Eastern Avenue and Metcalf Street)

12925 South Front Street
🕒 Ballot drop boxes are open until 8:00 p.m. on February 10.
📬 Important mailing reminder
Ballots are no longer postmarked when they are received, but when they are processed. Ballots mailed close to Election Day may not be processed in time to be counted. To ensure your ballot is received by the deadline, using an official ballot drop box is recommended, especially as Election Day approaches.

✔️ Return ballots early or by 8:00 p.m. on February 10

Completed with the 2021–2026 Capital Project Levy
• Roof replacement
Projects delayed due to inflationary cost increases (included in the proposed levy)
• ADA-compliant access at the front entrance (currently, those with mobility issues enter through the side entrance and proceed through a gated area, then the playground to a back entrance to an elevator)
Planned improvements if the replacement levy is approved
• 2028: Window replacements
• 2030: ADA-compliant main entrance
• 2032: Kitchen remodel
In addition to site-specific projects, the proposed levy supports ongoing districtwide facility, safety, and technology needs that benefit all schools, including Central. These projects occur throughout the six-year levy period and are not tied to a single year or building.
• School Resource Officer support (in partnership with the City of Sedro-Woolley)
• Ongoing technology replacement and infrastructure support
• Security camera replacement and system maintenance
• Telephone system replacement
• Flooring replacement (carpet and tile)
• Student furniture replacement
• Exterior painting of district buildings
Planning note: Projects shown reflect short-term recommendations developed through the Citizens Advisory Committee based on facility maintenance data. Long-range facility planning is underway separately to assess future needs over the next 10–20 years.
