La Conner Weekly News - Your independent hometown award-winning newspaper

Before Feb. 9 we have a chance to improve La Conner Schools. The La Conner School District replacement levy vote will provide for educational programs and operations that are either not funded or seriously underfunded by the state.

The renewal of this levy will focus on enhanced offerings in STEAM classwork (science, technology, engineering, arts and math). Also included will be extra-curricular activities and athletics, extended day learning, special education services and safety improvements for the schools.

The proposed four year replacement levy is offered at a lesser tax rate than previous levies and will provide stability for the School District in its curriculum planning and operations.

I urge you to vote yes to support La Conner’s kids!
