Everett High School Families:

We hope everyone is having a nice weekend.

There will be no school tomorrow, Monday, January 19, 2026, in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.   Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is a national holiday honoring the life and legacy of a leader who brought hope and healing to America through greater equality for all people, regardless of race. Tomorrow, we celebrate the timeless virtues he embodied by reflecting on his groundbreaking words that remain just as relevant today as they were over 50 years ago. As someone who stood for truth, justice, compassion, and courage, his character and leadership continue to inspire us every day.

The second academic quarter ends on January 30, 2026.

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.

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.

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.
