This week, for the second time in 11 weeks, voters exercise their democratic rights, weighing the Snoqualmie Valley School District’s latest construction bond.
If successful, the $56.2 million measure would build a new, $48 million middle school, and add nearly $8 million in improvements to other schools. It failed in February by a single vote, and a March recount failed to change the outcome.
