Northshore School Board was scheduled to receive information on a Ready Start preschool tuition increase for 2026-27
The Northshore School District's agenda for its Feb. 23, 2026 regular board meeting listed an information item on a tuition fee increase for the Ready Start preschool program for the 2026-27 school year 1.
What the records say
The Northshore School District Board of Directors' agenda for its Feb. 23, 2026 regular meeting included an item titled '2026-27 Ready Start Preschool Tuition Program Fee Increase,' listed under the Information Items section and marked as an information item 1. Ready Start is the district's preschool tuition program, so a fee increase would affect families who pay tuition for those preschool seats in the 2026-27 school year 1. The agenda entry notes the item contains an attachment, but the attachment's contents are not included in the supplied record, so the current and proposed tuition amounts cannot be confirmed 1. Because the item was labeled 'Information' rather than an action item, the record does not show that the board was scheduled to vote on the increase at that meeting 1. The supplied record also does not establish what happened at the meeting itself 1.

Why it matters
Preschool tuition is a direct household cost for Kenmore families with young children. A fee increase for the 2026-27 school year would change what those families pay, but the available record shows only that the topic was placed on the board's agenda for information — not the amounts or any board decision 1.
