History
In January 2007, the district added impact fees on houses in the Clark County section and in houses in the city limits of Woodland. That year it proposed that Cowlitz County add impact fees on houses in the district in order to pay for new facilities. The Cowlitz county attorney stated that he was not sure whether the plan complied with Washington state law.
In 2007, superintendent Bill Hundley chose to retire.
In 2015, four of the five members of the board of education signed a letter in support of superintendent Michael Green. The other board member was absent. The board collectively stated that the school district was inaccurately being depicted in the media as being in a disarray.
