Fall Neighborhood News

MCGILVRA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STAYS OPEN!!!

Seattle Public Schools leaders named four schools they plan to close next year as part of an effort to alleviate a $100 million budget shortfall. Thanks to the heroic and tireless work of so many , McGilvra Elementary School is no longer on the list of schools earmarked for closure in 2025!!

Still, this does not guarantee stability for neighborhood schools in the future- there are many more tasks ahead for the legislature and the community. Attend our Neighborhood Meeting this coming Monday, October 28 at 6:30 at the Bathhouse to learn more details. FoMP will continue to keep you updated as we learn more.
