**Body:** West Linn-Wilsonville School District
**Date:** July 09, 2026
**Jurisdiction:** SLED

**Tags:** Construction & Infrastructure, Education, Grants & Funding, Physical Infrastructure


At the West Linn-Wilsonville School District Board’s special meeting on July 10, 2026, the board unanimously approved an agreement for a $6.126 million state matching grant connected to the district’s capital bond and authorized staff to execute it. The grant is designated for previously identified work at Wood Middle School, including modernization and equipment. The superintendent also reported on bond-project communications and noted that a bond oversight committee regularly reviews project finances and schedules; no construction contract awards or vendor selections were reported. In discussing the proposed Bolton School historic-register nomination, board members expressed support for the district’s position opposing the designation, citing potential constraints on safety, accessibility, seismic, energy-efficiency, and other facility upgrades; no formal vote was taken on that issue.

The board also voted to postpone the K–12 social studies instructional-materials adoption process until the 2027–28 school year, with new materials planned for classrooms in fall 2028, to avoid overloading staff amid other instructional priorities. Other business included electing board officers, adjusting the August meeting date, and a first discussion of proposed public-complaint policy revisions, with further consideration planned for August. No other procurement actions were identified.
