Parkwood elementary students got to enjoy some of the good weather this afternoon after they spent some time outside while Shoreline Fire and Northshore Fire responded to alarms just before noon on Monday, September 12, 2011.

The kids were evacuated to the school fields and play area. School officials decided to keep them in school, and classes continued outside.

The problem was traced to an electrical vault and Seattle City Light was called in.  They were on site by 2:30pm and students were back in the building.

Parkwood is located at 1815 N 155th, Shoreline WA 98133 in the south central corridor of the Shoreline School District.

We will update this story as more information becomes available.
