Tyee High School
New Tyee Slated to Open Fall 2025
The 2016 bond funded the design of a new Tyee High School with a capacity of 1200 students. We involved the Tyee community in planning and design of their new school.
Voter approval of the 2022 bond is funding the construction of a new Tyee High School. The new Tyee High School is slated to open in September 2025. See the timeline and design. Keep track of our progress in the photos and news updates.
