Edmonds School District faces estimated $8.5 million deficit
LYNNWOOD — The Edmonds School District is facing an estimated $8.5 million budget shortfall for the 2025-26 school year.
At a Feb. 11 school board study session, Lydia Sellie, the district’s executive director of business and finance, said the district will have to find additional cuts or revenue sources.
The deficit is smaller than what the district had in the past two years. For the 2023-24 school year, the district faced a $15 million deficit. Last year, it was $10.6 million.
These shortfalls led the district to make controversial cuts, such as fifth-grade music and student intervention coordinator positions.
