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.
Let's show students that Port Townsend values their creativity and wants to see their ideas reflected in our community!
This year, work will be displayed in the Cotton Building downtown so that everyone can see our kids' great art.
To sponsor this event/donate, please visit: https://ptpta.givebacks.com/shop. Contributions will help support this week-long exhibition of artwork by students from PT schools installed April 2-7, 2026, and ongoing art programs in our school district.
