Charging is available to all MISD staff and students during school hours, and open to the public after hours.
This $170,000 project was fully funded by Puget Sound Energy’s Up & Go Electric for Business program. We’re proud to partner with PSE in supporting cleaner transportation options and contributing to a greener future by making EV charging more accessible at District locations.
To use the chargers, simply download the EV Connect app on iOS or Android.
