The Stanwood-Camano School District Board of Directors’ regular meeting on October 6, 2026, included updates on student achievement, facilities maintenance, school counseling, and district priorities. Procurement-related discussion focused on facilities work: the district reported replacing septic-system controls at two schools, repairing the Stanwood Middle School fire-water loop, rebuilding steps at Twin City Elementary, and continuing districtwide conversion of exterior lighting to LED, with interior LED upgrades at Stanwood and Cedar Home elementary schools. A board member referenced $334,000 in payables for LED upgrades. The district described the work as ongoing and did not identify a contract award, vendor selection, or bid approval. Estimated lighting-project payback was described as roughly three to five years at some sites; specific savings were not provided. Staff said they seek grants when available and prioritize fire-alarm and sprinkler-system improvements in coordination with the fire marshal; they clarified that the district had no code deficiencies.

The board also heard school performance and counseling-program reports, and discussed legislative priorities including fully funding basic education, stabilizing district budgets, adequate staffing, special education, and MSOC funding. Consent agenda items 1–8 and 10 were approved unanimously; item 9, concerning a district hire, was pulled because of a board member’s stated potential conflict, but the transcript does not capture the vote outcome. No other procurement action was identified.
