Sedro-Woolley School District is excited to celebrate 100 years of Central Elementary School at our Central Centennial Celebration on Saturday, October 3, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

As we prepare for this historic milestone, we are looking for Central Elementary alumni who would be willing to share stories, memories, or possibly serve as speakers during the celebration. Your experiences are part of the rich history that has shaped generations of students in our community.

The celebration will also include a community open house with self-guided tours, giving alumni, families, and community members a chance to walk the halls and revisit the school.

If you attended Central Elementary and would like to share a memory, photos, or be considered as a speaker, we would love to hear from you.

📧 Email: swsdcoms@swsd101.org

Please consider sharing this post with Central Elementary alumni so we can connect with as many former students as possible ahead of the celebration.

Graphic announcing the Sedro-Woolley School District Superintendent Search Community Forum on Tuesday, February 3, 2026, from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. at the Sedro-Woolley High School Auditorium. Community members are invited to share input on district strengths, challenges, and leadership priorities. Entrance is through the 4th Street Union High School entrance with white columns.
Maintaining aging school facilities requires ongoing planning and prioritization. Here’s a snapshot of recent and planned facility work at Central Elementary School.

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.
