Backpack Mail

Below is Kid Mail that comes home from the PTA. Just in case the flyers never make it home, we have copies below!

Jefferson PTA sends home newsletters and flyers home with students through backpack mail as well as post information on our website and our Facebook page. As a PTA, we can only email PTA members and don't have access to all emails of the student body so for us, backpack mail is the most efficient way to spread the word to our whole community.

For mail from the district, Everett Public Schools has partnered with peachjar and works with community organizations to provide information to families about not-for-proft services for students by publishing approved community flyers. Whether a family is new to the community or looking for a variety of family friendly local resources, the eflyers page is a great starting place.
