==History==
The school closed in Spring 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It has continued remote learning into the 2020-21 school year as per direction of the district superintendent. As of early November, Special Education students were ordered to begin re-attending school.

The first high school in Everett was a ten-week course established in 1891, two years prior to the city's incorporation. Margaret Salisbury was the first graduate of the high school, which expanded into a full four-year curriculum in 1898 but still shared space with other grades. A separate high school building was built in 1902, but the growing city's student population quickly outgrew the facility and required the use of several [[portable classroom]]s.<ref name="NRHP">{{cite web |last=Ravetz |first=Kristin |date=September 30, 1996 |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Everett High School |pages=7{{hyphen}}1, 8{{hyphen}}2 |url=https://npgallery.nps.gov/GetAsset/ec3e2dc5-0d42-426c-9d62-d52d786032c7 |publisher=National Park Service |accessdate=November 16, 2024}}</ref>

The A Building underwent eight major renovations through the 20th century, including a 1963 addition that added an elevator that covered the entranceway.

Everett High School is part of District One of the [[Washington Interscholastic Activities Association]] (WIAA) as a member of the Wesco 3A conference. The school competes as the Seagulls, with its sports split between the conference's North and South divisions; the football team was formerly in the North division, but was moved to the South division when Wesco football realigned with the addition of the [[Ferndale High School (Washington)|Ferndale Golden Eagles]] and the [[Squalicum High School|Squalicum Storm]] for the 2016 season.<ref>{{cite news |title=Meet the new 3A Wesco football league |url=https://www.bellinghamherald.com/sports/high-school/prep-football/article57410238.html |access-date=February 6, 2021 |work=The Bellingham Herald}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Rasbach |first1=David |title=Ferndale, Squalicum looking forward to new opportunities in Wesco |url=https://www.bellinghamherald.com/sports/high-school/prep-football/article57410373.html |access-date=February 6, 2021 |work=The Bellingham Herald |date=January 29, 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Hereth |first1=Zac |title=Wesco 3A South football preview: Coaches poll and storylines |url=https://www.heraldnet.com/sports/wesco-3a-south-football-preview-coaches-poll-and-storylines/ |access-date=February 6, 2021 |work=The Everett Herald |date=September 1, 2019}}</ref>

Due to the construction of Everett High School occurring in the city's early years, it does not have on-site facilities for baseball and football; both teams practice and play home games south of the school at [[Everett Memorial Stadium]] as a result. The baseball team temporarily practiced on the football field at the stadium complex for the 2017 season and most of the 2018 season due to poor conditions at the baseball park (now known as Funko Field) caused by heavy rain along with simultaneous use by teams from both the school and [[Everett Community College]]. The baseball park had its natural grass surface replaced with artificial turf, with the Seagulls hosting their first game on the new surface on April 12, 2018.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Hereth |first1=Zac |title=Everett High School baseball happy to be home |url=https://www.heraldnet.com/sports/everett-high-school-baseball-happy-to-be-home/ |access-date=February 6, 2021 |work=The Everett Herald |date=March 25, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Patterson |first1=Nick |title=Everett Memorial Stadium’s baseball field converting to turf |url=https://www.heraldnet.com/sports/everett-memorial-stadiums-baseball-field-converted-to-turf/ |access-date=February 6, 2021 |work=The Everett Herald |date=October 16, 2017}}</ref>

History

[edit]

The first high school in Everett was a ten-week course established in 1891, two years prior to the city's incorporation. Margaret Salisbury was the first graduate of the high school, which expanded into a full four-year curriculum in 1898 but still shared space with other grades. A separate high school building was built in 1902, but the growing city's student population quickly outgrew the facility and required the use of several portable classrooms.[4]

The first building on the modern Everett High School campus—now named the "A" or Main Building—opened on January 31, 1910, and was designed to accommodate 600 students.[4][5] It cost $198,000 to construct and was built on land that had hosted a 1905 showing from Buffalo Bill's traveling Wild West show.[5] The building was constructed in two months with new fireproof materials and technologies.[4]

The A Building underwent eight major renovations through the 20th century, including a 1963 addition that added an elevator that covered the entranceway. Most of the changes made in the 1963 addition were demolished by the building's 1995 renovation that restored its historic elements while bringing the A Building up to modern standards.[4] The Everett High School campus expanded to seven buildings over a four-block area around Colby Avenue, with new buildings to house facilities that were formerly in the A Building.[5]

Everett High School is part of District One of the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) as a member of the Wesco 3A conference. The school competes as the Seagulls, with its sports split between the conference's North and South divisions; the football team was formerly in the North division, but was moved to the South division when Wesco football realigned with the addition of the Ferndale Golden Eagles and the Squalicum Storm for the 2016 season.[6][7][8]

Due to the construction of Everett High School occurring in the city's early years, it does not have on-site facilities for baseball and football; both teams practice and play home games south of the school at Everett Memorial Stadium as a result. The baseball team temporarily practiced on the football field at the stadium complex for the 2017 season and most of the 2018 season due to poor conditions at the baseball park (now known as Funko Field) caused by heavy rain along with simultaneous use by teams from both the school and Everett Community College. The baseball park had its natural grass surface replaced with artificial turf, with the Seagulls hosting their first game on the new surface on April 12, 2018.[9][10]

The school has the claim of winning the unofficial national championship of high school football for the 1920 season. The football team, led by coach Enoch Bagshaw, achieved a perfect season that year;[note 1] it was capped off on January 1, 1921, with a 16–7 defeat of East Technical High School from Cleveland, Ohio, at Athletic Field in Everett, now the site of Bagshaw Field at North Middle School. After the season, Bagshaw left to coach for the Washington Huskies football team, leading them to their first Rose Bowl appearance in 1923.[11][12]
