As a parent who has been actively involved with their child's education I am quite disappointed with the Everett school system in general. I have a child who has spent his entire 11 years in the Everett school system and he is currently entering into his senior year at Everett High. This is a beautiful
... Read more new school but unfortunately that is all it has going for it. There have been so many budget cuts that the school does not have much to offer unless, of course, if you are a football player. There are many safety concerns at that school which include gangs and drugs, hence the heavy presence of law enforcement. I hope we can move from this city before my youngest child reaches high school age. It is indeed a shame I and many other parents feel that way. I wish more would post on this site. Read less

My child was having difficulty in passing her classes. Instead of helping, the faculty pushed her to drop out. Also, they discipline too harshly. But for the 'jocks' not harshly enough. So unless your a football star, i wouldnt recommend going to EHS.

This is a good school. It is one of the best for safety. It pushes you to learn and get on track with the real world. The teachers are a great group and so are the faculty. I would recommend going to this school, if you are looking for a good education.

Excellent School with great teachers. Perhaps too much homework, but I like the close proximity to the Police Station and Recreation Center.

As a current student at Everett High I must say that over the past few years this school has dropped tremendously in quality. The after school activities are plentiful but most do absolutely nothing, such as the Science Club and the History Club. If someone was considering going here I would do everything

I student taught under an amazing mentor at Everett High School. I am currently a teacher in Philadelphia and have to say that while I have taught in schools both urban, suburban and rural in Vermont and Pennsylvania..the HIGHEST standard of safety for students has been at EHS. The teachers and administration

I have a child who plays 3 varsity sports a year but they have other things my child is involved in too besides sports. The poetry club and big brother big sister program are 2 more activities my child takes part in. The Everett high band is a top notch band but they are not the only music extracurricular

A personal experience this year fortifies that idea. I am sure that if a parent wished to help get involved with an afterschool program either to help out with an existing one or even create a new one they would not be met with any resistance. But those are the parents who wish to complain that someone else isnt helping out. Read less

Building is in disarray. Class sizes are too big, especially in the ALC and AP courses. Also, too many courses and programs are being cut, especially the arts and elective honors courses. Most teachers are inexperienced or underqualified. The few exceptional teachers have or are planning to retire

Unless you are an athlete, particularly football, or a member of the band, which is funded because of the football program, there are no strong nor variety among extra curriculars. As for guidance, it depends on who you are. My mother wasn't really involved in my academic or extracurricular life, nor were most of my teachers or counselors, so it was basically up to me.
