Construction set to begin this summer on Rachel Carson Elementary addition
As growth continues on the Sammamish Plateau, Lake Washington School District is set to begin construction this summer on a four-classroom addition at Rachel Carson Elementary.
In April 2019, voters approved a capital construction levy to provide classroom space for 1,052 students. Carson’s new addition will open in fall 2022. Additions at three other elementary schools funded by the levy will open in fall 2021 and an addition at Lake Washington High School opened in fall 2020.
Visit our website to see designs, construction schedules, site logistics and safety plan for the Carson addition. You can also sign up for “Building on Success – Rachel Carson Elementary” email updates or ask a question in Let’s Talk!
