Mukilteo School Board approves school improvement plans, PAC change order and policy on completed projects
Summary
At its Jan. 14 meeting, the Mukilteo School District board approved revisions to a project-acceptance policy, adopted school improvement plans for 2024–25 and approved change order No. 3 for Kamiak High School's Performing Arts Center; a collective-bargaining motion with Sno Isle was introduced but not recorded as voted.
Mukilteo School District Board of Directors on Jan. 14 approved three items affecting district facilities and program plans, and a separate bargaining motion was introduced without a recorded vote.
The board voted to revise board policy 1945, “Acceptance of Completed Project,” and approved school improvement plans for 2024–25. Board members also approved change order No. 3 for the Performing Arts Center renovation at Kamiak High School, extending the project schedule; staff said the expected completion date is in May. A motion to approve a collective bargaining agreement with Sno Isle (Sno Isle Technical Skills Center) was made during the meeting but no vote on that motion appears in the transcript.
Why it matters: the three approved actions affect capital project timelines and school-level plans that guide instruction and supports for the coming school year. The change order affects the schedule for Kamiak’s Performing Arts Center renovation; the school improvement plans describe district- and school-level priorities and accountability for 2024–25.
Board action details
- Revision to board policy 1945 (Acceptance of Completed Project): Moved and seconded during the meeting. The board adopted the revision by voice vote; the transcript records a voice “aye” vote but does not record a roll-call tally or additional details about the policy text.
- Approval of school improvement plans for 2024–25: The board approved the plans by voice vote. Board discussion described the plans as data-driven, aligned to the district strategic plan, and including multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS) and attention to students’ social-emotional needs; the transcript attributes those descriptions to board discussion but does not record a detailed written summary of each school’s goals in the public record.
- Change order No. 3, Performing Arts Center renovation (Kamiak High School): The board approved change order No. 3 by voice vote. Facilities staff told the board the expected completion date is May; an exact May date was not provided.
- Collective bargaining agreement with Sno Isle: A motion to approve the collective bargaining agreement was made and seconded during the meeting, but no final vote or outcome on that motion is recorded in the transcript provided.
What board members said
Board members praised the school improvement plans as connected to the district strategic plan and noted they reflect attention to both academic interventions and social-emotional learning. Facilities staff answered board questions about the Kamiak Performing Arts Center schedule and said procurement items prompted the May timeline for completion. The transcript records that voice votes were taken; it does not record individual member votes or counts.
Next steps and context
The revision to policy 1945 and the approved school improvement plans will be part of district governance and school-level work for the 2024–25 year. The Kamiak PAC schedule will proceed toward a May completion target per staff remarks; any further schedule or budget implications tied to the change order will be handled through project management and future board communications. The collective bargaining motion remains on the record as introduced but without a recorded board decision in the provided transcript.
Ending note: The board conducted these votes during the business portion of its Jan. 14 meeting and then continued with policy review items and other discussion later in the agenda.
