Lake Stevens school bond funds needed safety work at all schools

A parent’s greatest fear is for something bad to happen to their child. The Lake Stevens School District bond will fund critical safety and security updates at all schools such as perimeter fencing and secure entries to keep kids safe.

Additionally, more than 1,100 students are currently learning in portable classrooms; by modernizing and expanding Glenwood, Skyline and Lake Stevens Middle School, as well as building an additional elementary school, students can be housed in the safer, more-secure main buildings.

Let’s help keep our kids safe by voting yes on the Lake Stevens School District bond.
