Highly Capable Program

The Highly Capable program in Everett Public Schools is designed to meet learning needs and challenge students who have advanced thinking and academic abilities. “HC” classes, as they are often referred to, are open to students in second, third, fourth and fifth grade.

Would you like more information? Parents who do not already have students enrolled in HC classes are invited to attend an information night at one of the locations listed below. We will have childcare available and Russian and Spanish interpreters.

Learning Assistance Program

Forest View Elementary School receives support from the state funded Learning Assistance Program (LAP).  LAP is designed to provide supplemental support to eligible students who are identified as in need of additional assistance to meet state and local academic standards, particularly focusing on children in kindergarten through fourth grade who are below grade level in reading.  Support may also be provided for fifth grade students and in math. Funds provide extended day classes and opportunities to include parents in the education of their children.

If you have questions about LAP, please contact Mrs. Ali Davis, adavis@everettsd.org, 425-385-7991 or Cynthia Jones, Director of Categorical Programs, cjones@everettsd.org, 425-385-4030.
