REMINDER!!
Our Parent Engagement Meeting is tomorrow,
9/18/25 at 6pm in the Lakeside High School Library.
PLEASE JOIN US!!


The Nine Mile Falls School District welcomes our students and families to a new year of learning and growth. Please help keep our community safe—watch out for students walking to and from school and be mindful of school buses on the road.


As many of you have seen, the Department of Natural Resources has set up its fire ground at Nine Mile Falls Elementary as they continue their critical work protecting our region from wildfire. We are grateful for their dedication and proud to play a small part in supporting their efforts.
We want to assure our families, school will begin on August 27th as planned. Our staff is already working closely with DNR to make sure our campus is fully ready to welcome students on the first day of school.
To our emergency crews working around the clock — thank you for your service and bravery. And to our families, thank you for trusting us. At Nine Mile, we take care of our kids first, while also serving the greater community we love.


Lakeside Students Graduate Ahead of the Game!
Rankings don’t tell the whole story—at Lakeside High School, students can earn over 190 college credits through EWU before graduation. Few schools in Washington offer this level of opportunity, and we are proud of the bright futures our students are building.

We can’t wait to welcome our students and families back to Nine Mile Falls for another amazing year!


As we prepare for the first day of school on August 27th, please be assured that our number one priority remains the safety and well-being of our students. We are working closely with DNR to ensure the campus is ready for our kids to walk through the doors on opening day.
This is Nine Mile at its best — neighbors helping neighbors, coming together in times of need. Our school grounds are more than just a place for learning; they’re a place where community spirit shines brightest.
To the firefighters and crews working 24 hours a day — thank you. And to our families, thank you for trusting us to care for our students while also serving the greater good.
In Nine Mile Falls, we take care of each other — always.
Superintendent Baerwald

Floors are being scrubbed, classrooms refreshed, bathrooms deep-cleaned, and lawns that endured heat and heavy use are getting double the water to bounce back in time for students.
A huge shout out to our Nine Mile Falls School District Maintenance and Custodial teams who are going above and beyond to restore and prepare every inch of our campus. Their dedication makes a real difference—and it shows.
We are proud to serve a community that shows up for each other, and we’re honored to do the same for our students and families. 💙

As the Lake Spokane Fire continues to impact our community, the Nine Mile Falls School District has stepped up in both quiet and powerful ways.
Lakeside Middle School has become a central hub for Washington’s fire response, housing the Department of Natural Resources’ Incident Command Center.
Custodial, Maintenance, and Administrative Staff have worked tirelessly to support the response efforts, offer shelter, and maintain safe spaces.
These images capture not just a crisis—but the care, commitment, and courage that define our district.
