Good Morning, Everett High School Families:
We hope everyone is having a nice weekend.

The Math MCAS test for students in grade 10 will be administered on May 19, 2026, and May 20, 2026. Both days are late-entry days for students in grades 9, 11, and 12. It is important that we have 100% attendance for the Math MCAS. Click the schedule for May 19, 2026, and May 20, 2026.

Additionally, we will have a Biology MCAS review program on May 19, 2026, and May 20, 2026. We ask that all students in grade 9 come to school at the regular time, 7:45 a.m. The program will help prepare grade 9 students for the Biology MCAS in June.

There is no school on Monday, May 25, 2026, in observance of Memorial Day.

As we continue into May, it is essential that we maintain our strong daily student attendance to the end of the school year.

We would like to invite all students and families to the EHS International Night on June 11, 2026, at 5 p.m. There is additional information about the EHS International Night at the bottom of this message.

Have a great week!

Thank you,
Dr. Braga

Attendance Updates

Everett High School will be eliminating the policy that assigns an E grade to students after a certain number of absences. Instead, we will implement a new policy emphasizing regular outreach to maintain consistent daily attendance. Attendance will continue to impact a student’s eligibility for summer school. Please see the updated attendance protocol below. These documents will be added to each weekly email.

Bathroom Procedures

At Everett High School, the bathrooms are locked during the first and last 7 minutes of each class. Outside of these times, they remain unlocked and accessible. If a student needs to use the bathroom during those locked periods, the student can either:

Ask their classroom teacher to contact a school administrator to unlock it.
Ask for assistance from a staff member near the bathroom to unlock it.

While this is a new procedure for Everett High School, it is a common practice in many high schools. The bathrooms on the first floor are open throughout the day. We value your support in maintaining consistent procedures at Everett High School.

Student Expectations

Personal Device Laptops and Computers

Students are encouraged not to bring personal laptops or computers to school, as every student should have a Chromebook. The school-issued Chromebook provides direct access to all necessary educational applications. If a student does not have a Chromebook, the student should contact their homeroom teacher. The technology department is located at Everett High School and can assist with any issues.

Tardy Protocol

The daily EHS Tardy Protocol:
7:30 a.m. — EHS doors open, breakfast is available
7:45 a.m. — Students move to their homeroom
8:00 a.m. — Homeroom begins
8:01 a.m. — Students are marked tardy to school; students who arrive at homeroom at 8:01am or after will be marked tardy
8:07 a.m. — Homeroom ends, and students move to their first period class

*EHS takes into consideration the weather conditions when excusing tardies.
