In an effort to better serve our multilingual families there is a new Language Hotline. It has a greeting in eight languages: Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Korean, Amharic, Russian, Ukrainian and Portuguese. Families will be asked to leave a message. This messaging service is monitored daily by our district’s team of interpreters who will follow up with families with answers or to connect with other school or district staff.
- You can use the Language Hotline to report an absence, leave a message for school staff or ask a question about a school program/event.
- We will still have a separate Spanish line: 425-431-1304. Spanish-speaking staff will answer this during regular business hours.

APPROVED PROP. 1 - SCHOOL CONSTRUCTION BOND Proposition 1 will replace some of our oldest school buildings with much-needed facilities to ensure all Edmonds School District students have safe, healthy and suitable spaces to learn. LEARN MORE
APPROVED PROP. 2 - REPLACEMENT TECHNOLOGY/CAPITAL LEVY All students deserve to have access to the technology they need to stay competitive and prepared for the jobs of tomorrow.
