School district asks community to keep dogs on leash, off campus during in-person learning Posted: May 5, 2021 56 Signage at College Place Middle School in Lynnwood details when community members are allowed on campus. Now that students are back in school buildings, the Edmonds School District is making a plea to the community and their pets to stay off district campuses during school hours. When the schools closed last March as part of Gov. Jay Inslee’s stay-at-home order, many people with dogs spent time outdoors on school athletic playfields. However, since students have begun returning to in-person learning this year, district staff say schools are having a recurring problem with people bringing their pets — many off leash — on campus while class is in session.
