Classes begin in Edmonds School District Wednesday

Edmonds, WALocal News

Edmonds School District students in grades 1-12 will return to school on September 3, while kindergarteners begin classes on September 8. The district has provided a back-to-school checklist emphasizing that families must reapply annually for free and reduced-priced meal benefits to maintain eligibility. Parents can find key school dates and schedules on the district’s website, as budget cuts have eliminated printed wall calendars this year. Bell schedules detailing start and end times, along with early dismissal information, are accessible online. Families eligible for busing should expect an email with route details a few days before the first day of school.

New families can verify bus routing information by reaching out to school offices or using Skyward Family Access. This year’s changes reflect ongoing budget constraints impacting communication methods within the district. Ensuring families are informed about these logistics is crucial for a smooth transition back to school.
