⚠️ EMAIL SECURITY ALERT
Several Sedro-Woolley School District staff email accounts were recently compromised, and fraudulent emails containing links may have been sent from those accounts to current and former families, community members and other contacts.
Because the messages were sent from legitimate staff email addresses, they may appear to be real.
If you receive an unexpected or unusual email from a district staff member, please do not click on links, open attachments, make purchases or provide personal or financial information.
If you received a suspicious message but did not click anything, report it as spam or phishing and delete it.
If you clicked a link and entered a username or password, change that password immediately. If you provided banking or credit card information or made a purchase, contact your bank or credit card company immediately and report it as potential fraud.
When in doubt, verify the message before responding or clicking anything. You can contact the staff member through the contact form available on the staff directory (available on each school's page by clicking on "Menu" then "Staff". Do not reply to the suspicious email or use contact information or links contained within it.
Please share this information with others who may have received a suspicious message from a district account, including former SWSD families.
Thank you for helping us keep our community safe online.

The first day of the Skagit County Fair is in the books, and these two second graders represented Sedro-Woolley well!
Oliver, who will be attending Central Elementary this fall, and Wyatt, who will be attending Clear Lake Elementary, spent the day showing their chickens, learning from the judge, and building confidence along the way.
We're proud of the hard work, responsibility, and dedication our students show both in and out of the classroom. Great job, Oliver and Wyatt! 🐔🏆
