Message from the Superintendent of the Medical Lake School District

The purpose of this message is to inform you of a few items. The last day of school for Medical Lake students will be Tuesday, June 16th. It was determined by the state superintendent to add 5 school days to our original ending date of June 9th. The first day of school has yet to be determined as we wait on the Governor lifting restrictions towards the Fall.


High School seniors’ last day will be June 9th as they have traditionally gotten out 5 days prior to the rest of the students. We are still working out the details for graduation and will let you know ASAP.


As a friendly reminder, we encourage you to take the 2020 Census if you haven’t done so. This is important for our district as it may lead to an increase in federal funding to academically support our students. The link below is provided for your convenience.
