As we are getting close to the our students needing to rise and shine early, now would be a great time to help student adjust their sleep schedule. Here is an article to help with this sleep transition!

If you missed our August 10th communication, here is the link to this letter. This communication contains a ton of information you need for back to school.

The dress code for PE has changed this year. Please take a moment to look over what students need to wear for safety during PE.

Shirts: Students will need to wear a crew neck t-shirt preferably plain white, light grey, or a plain light color that can have their name written in permanent maker across the front and/or back. Sweatshirts can be worn for cold weather months. If desired, you may purchase a school PE shirt in the main office for a minimal fee.

Bottoms: Students can wear school dress code appropriate shorts, sweats, yoga pants, or leggings of any color.

Shoes: Students need to wear comfortable athletic style shoes that lace up and are non-marking.

If you are unable to provide PE Clothing or sweats for the colder months, please reach out to your school office support and/or counselor.

The graphic below shows in blue and grey which areas should be covered.

There is only one way in and one way out of Gateway. Please follow the flow of traffic and only drop off students in the red square area below.

Please make sure you are driving the speed limit and looking out for our students and staff. We want every aspect of all of our students to be safe.

If you have a bus issue please contact:

Call Center for Families (website) – 425-385-4144 (on afterhours card)

You are invited to connect with the Region Three Regional Superintendent, Larry Fleckenstein, to engage in conversation about Back to School and to provide feedback to help us improve. We want to hear from you and hope you can attend an in-person meeting to share your thoughts.

We are very excited to announce that the Everett Public Schools Athletic Department has partnered with FinalForms, an online forms and data management service. FinalForms allows you to complete and sign athletic participation forms for your students. The most exciting news is that FinalForms saves data from season-to-season and year-to-year, meaning that you will never need to enter the same information twice! FinalForms also pre-populates information wherever possible, for each of your students, saving you time.

You may review your data at any time to verify it is current. You will be required to sign your forms once per year and after any update.

We are asking that ALL parents of athletes use FinalForms. Middle school sports (Football, Softball, Cross Country) start Sept. 12. You will need a current physical on file, which you can upload directly into FinalForms.

Please register your athlete now to avoid any delay in beginning your season at: https://everett-wa.finalforms.com/ and follow the prompts to create your account, create your students and sign your forms.

FAQ:

During registration, you will be asked to enter your students' email. @stu.everettsd.org This is often times your students first initial and last name (not your student id #), please email kshea@everettsd.org or call 425-385-4260 if you are unsure of your students' email address.

For access to your student's district email account go to www.office.com. Students can login with their studentID@apps.everettsd.org account and district password on any personal device using the web browser. Once logged in, select the Outlook icon located on the left side of the webpage.

Thank you for your assistance in streamlining our paperwork processes at Everett Public Schools.

HAC (Home Access Center) is Everett School District's official gradebook. No other platform has official grades. Teachers should update this platform every two weeks. You will find that most teachers update more often. Click here to access your students grades.

Google Classroom may be used by teachers to turn in assignments and give students feedback. Teachers may grade in this platform, but the grade is not official, unless it is placed in the HAC gradebook. Teachers that use this platform will send a link to the students in their classroom.

Canvas has multiple purposes. One of these purposes is to allow students to keep up with their work when absent. If your child is ever absent, please check this platform to see what your student has missed. Teachers may have students submit work on this platform, but once again the final grade will be placed in LMS. Click here to find out how you can access Canvas.
