What the records say
In materials published ahead of the Aug. 25, 2025 meeting, the Northshore School District board's agenda listed, under Action Items, approval of an interlocal cooperation agreement with Edmonds School District No. 15 for special education services 1. The item was labeled Action, meaning it was scheduled for a board vote rather than discussion only 1. The agenda notes the item contains an attachment, but that attachment was not supplied, so the agreement's actual terms are not in the available record 1.

Why it matters
Northshore is the school district serving Kenmore, and special education services are individually tailored to each eligible student. An interlocal agreement under which Edmonds School District would provide special education services could affect where and how some students receive those services. Because the agenda alone does not state the agreement's terms, residents would need the attachment or a post-meeting record to learn the substance of what the board was scheduled to decide 1.
