Announcements

Recent national and local ICE activity has raised questions about on-campus safety. While no incidents have occurred on our school campuses, the Issaquah School District wants families, caregivers and staff to know about our procedures and protections. Learn more about how we keep schools safe.

We are pleased to share a recap of the Fall sports season with our community. This year, more than 2,600 ISD middle and high school students participated in Fall athletics. Our student-athletes had an incredible fall sports season. Local levy dollars from the Educational Programs & Operations (EP&O) Levy provide funding that helps us offer athletics and activities for students across the district. The levy will expire unless it is renewed.

Are you looking for levy facts? We have been sharing information each week in the district bulletin, but wanted to share resources today, in case you have missed our prior messages. The district has three levy renewal proposals on the February 10, 2026 ballot. If approved, the measures would maintain the district's current total combined tax rate. Resources and details enclosed.

Do you have a child who will be 5 years old by August 31, 2026? Registration for students entering kindergarten in the fall of 2026 opens on February 2. We can't wait to welcome the class of 2039! 

Families of students with IEPs are invited to connect with our Special Services team at a Family Listening Session on January 22. Share your voice and help shape our Portrait of a Graduate while learning, asking questions and sharing feedback on topics that support students with disabilities and their families.

The Special Election is February 10. Local and state election officials urge voters to mail ballots early or use ballot drop box locations due to postmarking delays. You can register to vote online or by mail through February 2 to vote in the election. 

Help make a difference for ISD students by volunteering at the Free Winter Clothing Event on January 31 at the ISD Administration Building. With shifts available for students, families, staff, and community members, your support will help ensure every student has access to warm winter clothing.

Elementary report cards for the first semester will be available to families in Family Access on January 23 at 5:00 p.m. Translation resources and language support are available to help all families stay connected to their child’s learning.

Families are invited to join the Special Services team for an evening focused on helping students successfully navigate important school transitions, from early learning through high school and beyond. Join us on February 9 to learn practical strategies, explore resources, and discover ways to support your child through each stage of change.
