What Parents Should Know

Everett High is a large school: 2,289 students. Size usually brings more course choices and activities than a smaller school can staff, but kids can also blend into the crowd. Ask how the school keeps students known and supported.

44% of students at Everett High were chronically absent in the 2022-23 school year, above the national average.
