Legislative Issues
The Legislative Committee is committed to being advocates for all kids and all families at Hollywood Hill Elementary.
We are striving to have an effective advocacy team that communicates legislative issues to our school.
The two levies are a continuation of what the Northshore School District community had approved in the past.
The four-year Renewal Education Operation Support (M&O) Levy supports the daily operations of our schools and,
a four-year Renewal School Technology Levy provides for technology updates (the state provides no funding for technology upgrades.)
The Capital Project Bond will help renovate and update aging schools. Specifically Hollywood Hill Elementary has been identified as needing new carpeting (the carpeting has not been replaced in 30 years.)
The Board encourages all Hollywood Hill community members to learn more about the levy bond issues. A presentation regarding the measures will be at the PTA General Membership Meeting on Tuesday, January 26th in the library at 7:00pm.

Did you hear the NEWS about the
lawsuit?
NEWS is a coalition of more than 70 community organizations, school
districts (including Northshore SD) and education associations representing
thousands of voters, parents, teachers and other concerned citizens who
believe the kids of our state deserve a first class K-12 education. Plagued
with a long-outdated state funding system that fails to fully fund even the
basic elements of a high quality 21st century education, NEWS has been
forced to file a lawsuit asking the courts to order the State of Washington
to live up to its paramount constitutional duty to make ample
provision for the education of all Washington
children. To follow the latest go to
