Dear Everett Public Schools Community, 

March has arrived, bringing with it the momentum and focus of the second half of the school year. This is an important and exciting time as students deepen their learning, begin planning for next year, and engage in meaningful opportunities that support their growth. 

If you have a child who will begin kindergarten this fall, enrollment opens on March 2. Enrolling early helps families prepare and supports a smooth transition for our youngest learners. At the same time, middle and high school students are selecting courses for the coming year. This is a valuable opportunity for students to explore their interests, challenge themselves academically, and set thoughtful goals for the future. 

Registration is also open for the Everett Career Link Summer Program. This hands-on experience provides high school students with the opportunity to gain real-world experience, build practical skills, and explore potential career pathways. I encourage students who are interested to take part in this rewarding program. 

Beyond these milestones, I encourage all students to participate in the many academic, artistic, athletic, and extracurricular opportunities available throughout our schools. Involvement in school activities helps students build confidence, develop leadership skills, form meaningful connections, and strengthen their sense of belonging within our community. 

Thank you to our students, families, and our dedicated staff and educators for your continued commitment and hard work. Let us carry this energy forward and make the remainder of the school year productive, engaging, and successful for all. 

Be safe and be well,  
Dr. Ian B. Saltzman 
Superintendent
