Today Governor Inslee issued a new order requiring school staff to be vaccinated or seek an exemption. This order is a mandate for all schools throughout the state. The decision is not a local one, but one made at the state level. The district will work with all staff on meeting the requirement either through vaccination or through one of the two exemptions available to them. This order DOES NOT include students.
