Lake Stevens school bond will build classrooms, improve safety

One of the biggest concerns parents have in this day and age is ensuring their kids are safe at school. The Lake Stevens School District bond will fund critical safety and security updates at all schools such as perimeter fencing and secure entries.

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.
