About School Environmental Health and Safety
We envision a King County where K-12 schools, preschools, and childcares are built, maintained, and operated to be healthy, safe, and climate resilient for all students – regardless of race, place, or income.
School plan review
Learn how to submit your school construction project plans for review and approval (design phase) and request a pre-occupancy inspection (construction phase). All K-12 schools (public and private) need our approval before building a new school facility or making any major addition or alteration to an existing facility (including classroom portables and playgrounds).
Private school certification inspections
Learn how to request and obtain a health and safety inspection of your school building facility (including playgrounds), as part of the Washington State Board of Education’s approval process for private schools (includes independent, parochial and Non-Public Agency schools).
