Highline Public Schools welcomed seven new members to its community-led Capital Facilities Advisory Committee (CFAC) this week.
From a lottery drawing on Sept. 26, seven were selected by service area from the names of 17 Highline residents who entered the lottery for an open seat on the Capital Facilities Advisory Committee:
-

CFAC is the committee that recommended the 2016 bond and the proposed 2022 bond on November ballots. If approved, the 2022 bond would raise funds to rebuild Evergreen and Tyee high schools and Pacific Middle School as well as make critical repairs and improvements districtwide.
