Thanks to a $25,000 grant from Amazon.com, the Everett Public Schools Foundation provided a book to all 1,081 incoming kindergarteners who attended Everett Ready this week! 📚

The grant is also helping support early learning programs across the district. ❤️

Books were available in both English and Spanish, helping students begin building libraries of their own at home. We appreciate Amazon’s partnership and support of our youngest learners!

Numbers are in for our Stuff the Bus for Kids school supply drive! 🎒

Thanks to the incredible support of our business partners, volunteers, and community members, as of today, we’ve raised $48,564 in donations, with money still coming in!

Together, we exceeded our goal of having enough supplies to fill 3,600 backpacks. In fact, we’re making 3,700 to have extras on hand to help support students throughout the school year!

Thank you to every person who donated, volunteered, partnered with us, or helped spread the word. Because of you, our students will start the school year with the supplies and confidence they need to succeed. We couldn’t be prouder of what our community accomplished together! ❤️
