PTHS MOCK Trial placed 13th at State, but more importantly, worked through a key members' absence. Their ability to problem solve, regroup, and work as a team gives me so much hope for democracy, despite the daily news! Well Done!

With the passage of this bond, we can now bring our historic Port Townsend High School up to modern standards and create a permanent home for our OCEAN K-12 Alternative School.
Students will have a safer and more accessible place to learn, teachers will have modern classrooms to elevate their instruction and we will ALL have a vibrant gathering space to come together in the heart of our community!
We look forward to bringing this dream to life. Stay tuned for ways to get involved in the design process. Updates will be shared at www.ptschools.org/page/bond2026.
