Communications & Community Services

The Communications & Community Services Department wants to help share and promote districtwide stories and events. Please fill out this form to share your information.

Classes are offered year-round for adults and students in after school, evening and summer classes and camps when students are not using the facilities. This includes the Lake Stevens High School swimming pool, which offers a comprehensive year-round aquatics program. It is our goal to offer affordable classes of interest in your local classrooms, gyms and play fields to maximize the community's access to schools. It is our board's strong belief that our schools belong to our community and every effort should be made to make our schools open and available to the community.

The Communications Department oversees the distribution of literature throughout the district. Please contact us for additional information.

Our department facilitates the rental of school facilities according to district policy and procedure. All use of schools and rentals are booked and facilitated through the Communications Department with school district citizens receiving first priority after the school day, and student sports and events.

Annual Communications via various publications and reports including quarterly issues of the Lake Schools community newsletter that is mailed to all box holders in Lake Stevens; district website content; on-going press releases; annual publication of the district calendar and handbook; and a variety of community-centered events planned throughout the year.
