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.
Facility maintenance projects are planned over multiple years based on building conditions, site constraints, and available funding. Here’s a snapshot of facility work at Samish Elementary School.

Samish Elementary includes buildings constructed in the early 1960s. Long-range facility planning has identified significant system and site constraints at this location, which affect how and when improvements can be completed.

Projects delayed due to inflationary cost increases and site constraints
• Repair and repave the parking lot
• Install a backup generator to support restroom and septic system operations during power outages

Planned improvements if the replacement levy is approved
• 2030: Install a backup generator
• 2032: Repair and repave the parking lot

In addition to site-specific projects, the proposed levy supports ongoing districtwide facility, safety, and technology needs that benefit all schools, including Samish. 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
• Phased installation of air conditioning in district buildings (beginning in 2030)

Planning note: Short-term levy projects are developed through the Citizens Advisory Committee based on facility maintenance data. Separate long-range facility planning examines district facility needs over the next 10–20 years, including broader options for Samish Elementary.
