Public Notice

The regularly scheduled November Meridian School Board Meeting had been moved and will be held on Monday, November 16th at 7:00pm in the Meridian Middle School Library.

POSTED: Friday, Oct. 23, 2009, KIRA COX - THE BELLINGHAM HERALD

The Meridian School Board unanimously approved putting a $17 million bond measure to voters on the Feb. 9, 2010, ballot during a school board meeting Wednesday night, Oct. 21. The bond would be used to rebuild much of Meridian High School and to expand Irene Reither Primary School.

If the bond passes, the district also would receive $11.1 million in state matching funds for the two construction projects.

The 20-year bond would raise current property taxes in the district by 2 cents per $1,000 of a home's assessed value, which means a home assessed at $300,000 would pay an extra $6 each year.
