Unfortunately we are experiencing issues district wide with our phones. We are working diligently to fix the issue. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you must get a hold of your child's school, please send an email to the secretary. Thank you for your patience.
So thankful for the tremendous support for our schools, staff, and, most importantly, for Kelso kids.

Health care specialists, safety officers, advisors, and coaches are an important part of your child's educational experience. These are almost entirely funded by the local levy. Please vote by February 11. #StrongSchoolsStongerCommunity
Levies are for learning, bonds are for building. #StrongSchoolsStrongerCommunity
Have you voted yet? Ballots must be in or postmarked by February 11th to be counted. #StrongSchoolsStrongerCommunity

Levy fact #10: Levy dollars are used to pay for staff, programs, services, and materials not fully funded by the state. #StrongSchoolsStrongerCommunity
The local replacement levy is used to restore, sustain, and enhance curriculum, technology, staffing, and other program costs that the state does not fund.
We are thankful for our dedicated School Board Members and all that they do for our students, staff & community! Happy School Board Appreciation Month!
The replacement levy on the February ballot takes the place of the existing levy expiring this year, it is not a new tax. Even with the passage of the replacement levy, school funding tax rates will still be lower than they were in 2017 - 2019.
Access to Redpath Dr. in front of Huntington Middle will be closed today. Please plan on using an alternate route.
