We know you have had many questions since we announced we would be opening school in the fall in a fully remote model. Please go to our COVID 2020-21 webpage for a letter from Dr. Saltzman outlining details about the learning model. You will find information on daily school schedules, attendance, grading, accessing all class information in a single platform, school meals, Parent University and more! Be sure to check out the district’s FAQs page, if your question is not answered there you will have an opportunity to submit questions.

Kindergarten ONLINE enrollment

If your child will be five years old by August 31, 2020, it’s time to enroll for kindergarten! Online enrollment is available on the district website. Register now to access information about your school’s kindergarten program and receive a parent resource and children’s book “Kindergarten, Here I Come!” Enrollment also reserves your child’s spot in Everett Ready, our transition-into-kindergarten program scheduled for August 17-21, at our elementary schools. Contact EarlyLearning@everettsd.org with any questions.

New cell phone policy

The use of cell phones in the classroom can distract students from instruction, yet can be important to have accessible in case of emergency. With this in mind, the district has adopted a new policy 3246 and procedure 3246P which prohibits cell phone use in the classroom while still providing access for students in case of emergency.

Elementary school students who choose to bring cell phones to school may only use them before or after the school day. During the school day, they must be powered off and stored (e.g., in the student’s backpack, locker, other district provided storage). There will be storage in the classroom so, in the event of an emergency, the cell phones will be accessible without leaving the classroom.
