History

Prior to 1945 there were three schools districts covering the area of present-day Snoqualmie Valley School District. They were the North Bend District, Snoqualmie District, and the Fall City District. These were consolidated into one large district in 1944.[3] In the last decade, the total student population in this district has increased by 25%.
