About the Project
The 2019 Building Excellence V (BEX V) Capital Levy will fund a new replacement school building for Northgate Elementary. It will also provide technology equipment and services, such as computers, peripherals, printers, and other technology for teaching and learning.
As with all schools that were built 25 years ago or more, the district has submitted a landmark nomination for Northgate Elementary to the City of Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board. By self-nominating the buildings, the district avoids having someone else nominate the project, which can delay progress.
You can find the nomination documents on the City of Seattle's website.
