Our
New Website Launches December 6
When
you visit our school or district website beginning December
6, you will find it easier to navigate and find information,
as well as notice an improved design! The replacement of
our existing site was possible through the 2008 Technology/Capital
Levy approved by voters. This was not a General Fund expense.
We
hope you will take the time to visit our site by going to
www.edmonds.wednet.edu and then clicking on our school name.
Exciting new features of site include:
·
Navigation. The new website will have navigation that is
easy to use and a search feature to help you find what you
are looking for.
· E-Alerts. You can register for our site and sign
up for E-Alerts, which are email notifications sent when
our school's website is updated. Now, instead of visiting
the site multiple times to check for updates, you can be
notified of changes or new information via email.
· Calendar. Our school's calendar will be updated
as new events are planned.

School District Gifted Programs are for students

and can process information at much higher and more abstract
levels. For more information go to district website http://staff.edmonds.wednet.edu/tl/HighCap/HighCapHome.html
