Public forum tonight on new schools plans

Citizens planning committee will unveil options for new school facilities

A public meeting tonight will feature design ideas and locations for new public school facilities on the Island. The 21st Century Facilities Planning Committee for Mercer Island School District is holding a presentation tonight, from 7 until 9 p.m. at the Islander Middle School Library.

The 21st Century Facilities Planning Committee (21CFPC) is a citizen’s committee created by the Mercer island School District School Board to help address the facilities challenges facing the district. The group has been working together for a year, investigating scenarios for housing students and programs to best meet the long-range facility needs of the district. Come hear what the committee has learned and the options they are considering putting before the board this fall.
