- Cle Elum-Roslyn School District
District Water Update
The school district remains on the Roslyn water system, which is still impacted by this week’s water main break. Due to the potential for water contamination, all drinking fountains across the district will be unavailable for use until further notice.
The district is prepared and taking steps to support students and staff during this time. Our Food Services team has developed alternate menus and will be ready to serve meals as scheduled. The district will also have some bottled water available at schools; however, families are encouraged to send students to school with extra water as available, and staff should plan to bring their own drinking water each day.
We anticipate receiving updated information on Monday following Roslyn’s water testing and a review by the Department of Health, and we will share an update with families as soon as it is available.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact the District Office at (509) 852-4819.
