Family Connection Meetings
Family Connection Meetings are an opportunity for each family to have a dedicated 20 minutes to meet with their child's kindergarten teacher. This personalized time allows parents/guardians to ask questions, address any concerns, and get acquainted with the teacher. These meetings take place the first few days of school for students in grades 1-12. There is no school for kindergarteners on these dates.
Choice schools
If you are interested in Edmonds Heights K-12, Madrona K-8 or Maplewood Parent Cooperative, please contact the school for information.
Dual Language schools
