Mukilteo School Board sends bond, levy measures to ballot

EVERETT — Mukilteo School Board members voted unanimously Tuesday to send bond and levy measures to the February special election ballot.

The bond measure, totaling $400 million, would pay for numerous construction projects across the school district, which covers Mukilteo as well as parts of Everett, Lynnwood, Edmonds and unincorporated Snohomish County.

The bond’s most expensive project is the completion of the Explorer Middle School replacement, a project that began with an initial phase thanks to a 2020 bond measure. The middle school’s replacement is expected to cost $134.7 million.

Other projects in the bond package would include an $88 million replacement of Mukilteo Middle School and work toward replacement of Serene Lake and Olivia Park Elementary Schools. The bond would also fund a $27 million expansion of the Kamiak High School gym, synthetic turf fields at some schools and building maintenance districtwide. Other upgrades planned include safety improvements, technology upgrades and new fire safety systems.
