Frequently Asked Questions

How do I complete the annual update?
One guardian for each child would complete the Annual Update. It could be the guardian who receives the automated email or a guardian who logs in directly to the Home Access Center (HAC). Link here for Annual Update directions.
-
What if I need to complete Annual Update or Enrollment Forms for more than one student? Do I need to do this for each child?
Yes, because you will need to provide information that is specific for each child. We recommend that you complete and submit one Annual Update form before you start the next – this will allow you to “snap over” shared family information to the next student, which will save you time.
-
What if I have forgotten my password for Home Access Center?
Keeping passwords secure is important for all students, guardians, and staff members.
To update or change your password, from a personal device, you can go to https://arms.everett.k12.wa.us and provide your guardian username and use the "Need Help?" link.
More information is available on the Resetting passwords page.

How do I continue an online form that I have already started?
If you started the form from inside Home Access Center (Annual Updates, or New student forms for families with existing students):
Log back into the Everett Public Schools Home Access Center (HAC): https://hac.everett.k12.wa.us. From there, you will want to go to the registration tab, and look for the link to the form. There is a link for each student. You should see a link for an in-progress form.
If you started the form by using the buttons on the Enrollment page (New families and students returning to Everett Public Schools) :
Log back into the Enrollment system using the username and password you created when you started the form. You will see a link to the in-progress form for your student on the dashboard of the enrollment system, and you can continue from there.
-
What if I do not see the link in Home Access Center to complete an Annual Update?
Be sure that you are logged in with using a parent account, which is formatted like F.Last or F.Last2, not using your student's account credentials which are the same as their student ID number. Students do not have permission to update their own information. Not all users who have access to students in Home Access Center can also update student enrollment information. If you are the parent/guardian who would normally be filling out annual update paperwork, please contact your student's school to ensure that you have access. During the month of July, you can email lms@everettsd.org for assistance.
