Stanwood Spartans are united in cultivating character, modeling respect, teaching leadership and connecting to community.

A huge "thank you" to all of our Certificated Staff! We celebrate you this Teacher Appreciation Week and want you to know that our school is a better place with you in it!

A huge thank you to all involved! We had over 130 students and their families come through! Let's go Spartans Class of 2036!

We will have an advisory session on Friday, May 12th. Advisory is from 9:28 - 10 a.m.

We will offer summer school in August at our school. If students failed a course, they are eligible for summer school. The program will be free this summer.

Please open the document below for all the information and application.

Seniors and Families:

We would like to invite you to join us as we celebrate the Class of 2023 at our first annual Signing Day Celebration. Signing Day is an opportunity to celebrate students committing to pursue their education past high school. Whether a student wants to earn a two-year degree, a four-year degree, a certificate or industry-recognized credential, transfer to a new institution, complete an apprenticeship, or enlist in the military, we want to celebrate them! We will hold a ceremony at 6:00 PM on May 15th at Stanwood High School where students will be recognized for their post-high school path and sign a commitment to this path. To sign up to participate, students should complete this form by May 1st. Please only submit one form per student.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
