Community invited to take final walk-through at Evergreen High School on Saturday, June 14

Burien, WALocal News

Evergreen High School will host a farewell event on June 14 from noon to 2 p. m. , inviting alumni and community members to revisit the original campus before its demolition. Attendees can explore select areas like the gym and library while enjoying light refreshments and reconnecting with former classmates. Since its opening in 1955, Evergreen High has been integral to the White Center community for nearly 70 years.

The farewell marks the conclusion of an era, as the original buildings will be demolished to accommodate new softball and baseball fields and expanded parking under Highline Public Schools' capital improvements plan. Parking will be available in the west lot near the football field, with overflow options at the Evergreen Aquatic Center. The event does not include a formal program, allowing attendees to drop in at their convenience. The new Evergreen High School building is currently under construction and is expected to open for the 2025-26 school year. This transition reflects ongoing investments in local education infrastructure.
