The 2015 bond provides funding to build a new, expanded and modernized Mount Si High School facility on the main campus property at 8651 Meadowbrook Way SE, Snoqualmie, WA 98065. The new school design was built to serve up to 2,300 students in grades 9-12, providing more space for innovative teaching and learning, with a focus on enhancing 21st Century career and college readiness, and enhanced school safety and security features. The newly constructed Mount Si High School opened to serve students starting in fall of 2019. Below, monthly updates are provided on the high school construction through the duration of the project.
UPDATE: Phase 1 of the new Mount Si High School was completed on time and on budget as planned, opening on the first day of school September 4, 2019. The Community Grand Opening Celebration took place on September 7. (Watch the video below.) Phase 2 of construction now continues. This work includes demolition of the old high school, preparing the new softball and baseball fields, additional site work (more stone columns), construction of the new Performing Arts Center, and adding bus lanes and visitor parking.

Phased Construction Timeline:
- Parking and Construction Staging. Click here for a sitemap of the MSHS Parking & Entrance Transitions, that went into effect January 2017. This phase began during the summer of 2016 with relocating modular classrooms from the front parking lot to the Freshman Campus, adding temporary parking, and creating staging areas to get ready for construction that followed spring of 2017.
- Phase 1 of construction began April 2017 and continues through August 2019 to complete the majority of the construction. By fall of 2019, the new core academic wings and gym will be completed and ready to serve all students in grades 9-12. Also in fall of 2019, the District will convert the current Freshman Campus into a middle school, bringing a third middle school back online for students in grades 6-8.
- Phase 2a of construction, during the summer months of June 2019 - August 2019, involves demolishing the old school and gym, and adding parking lots and drop-off lanes. The baseball/softball fields will be completed by February 2020 for use during the spring sport season in 2020. During the 2019-20 school year, students will continue to use the current auditorium as the new Performing Arts Center (PAC) is constructed (where the gym was located previously). The new PAC will open for use in January 2021. The final step, Phase 2b, involves demolishing the old auditorium and replacing it with the last parking/bus loop area needed to complete the project by April 2021.
Quick Summary of Planning Activity:
Working with architects, the District began planning with a committee comprised of staff, students, parents and administrators to define the High School Educational Visioning (October 2014 - January 2015). After the bond passed, another group, the High School Design Team, was assembled and met extensively throughout a robust 15-month process to complete the Design Development Phase by May 2016. A Groundbreaking Ceremony took place on June 8 to launch the start of construction, which began with relocating portables and other preparations over the summer.
