Evergreen Academy in Bothell offers a private school education for children ages 3 through 5th grade, a carefully designed continuum that begins in the preschool years and carries students through the full scope of elementary education, building year after year toward an experience that is as academically rigorous as it is unforgettable.

Our academic day runs from 8:10 am to 3:45 pm. Extended hours are available from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm for families who need coverage beyond the standard school day.

Students at Evergreen Academy wear school uniforms Monday through Thursday. Boys wear a navy, white, or evergreen long- or short-sleeve collared shirt with navy or khaki chino-style pants or shorts. Girls wear a navy, white, or evergreen long- or short-sleeve collared shirt paired with a navy, evergreen, khaki, or plaid jumper, skirt, or skort. All students must wear athletic or closed-toe shoes. For complete details, please reference our uniform guidelines.

Uniforms and logo wear for Evergreen Academy are available through Tommy Hilfiger. Please visit the Evergreen Academy ordering page to shop the correct collection for our school.

Evergreen Academy offers a thoughtfully varied lunch program throughout the week. Hot lunches from Ordo are available for order on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, with weekly ordering windows. On Wednesdays, boxed lunches are available from Subway, and Fridays bring the always-anticipated pizza option, both ordered on a trimester basis. Students may also bring packed lunches and snacks from home. Please note that Evergreen Academy is a nut-free school, and we ask all families to pack accordingly to ensure the safety of every student in our community.

Full-day kindergarten creates time for the kind of learning that cannot be rushed — and at Evergreen Academy, that time is used in a way that is unlike anything else in elementary education. Our kindergarten program includes KidTown, a signature experience in which students visit local fire stations, grocery stores, and pet shops, then return to the classroom to build their own versions from the ground up. They staff the stores. They earn their own currency. They make real decisions about how to spend it , whether that means buying pizza (served in appropriately pizza-scented Play-Doh form) or casting a line at the fishing pond. This is not a simulation of learning. It is learning at its most alive, and it requires every hour of a full day to do it justice. Learn more about our elementary curriculum.

The measure of a private school education is what students remember when they look back, and at Evergreen Academy, every year gives students something they will carry for a lifetime. First graders pack their suitcases and “fly” to Antarctica, immersing themselves in a deep, imaginative study of penguin life and polar ecosystems. Second graders become entrepreneurs, organizing their own farmer’s market complete with student vendors representing products from every grade’s area of study. Third graders camp at the foot of Mount St. Helens, experiencing the science of geology and natural history in the landscape that shaped it. These are not enrichment additions to an otherwise conventional curriculum. Learn more about what makes us singular on our Only At page.

Apple Distinguished School status is one of the most selective honors in global education. At Evergreen Academy, this recognition reflects the depth and intentionality with which technology is integrated into every dimension of daily learning. Our educators use technology not as a tool for passive consumption, but as a catalyst for creative thinking, collaborative inquiry, and learning that is tailored to each individual child. For a school already committed to hands-on, experiential education, Apple Distinguished status is a natural expression of that same commitment, extended into the digital realm. Learn more on our Classroom Technology page.

Evergreen Academy offers a private school education that is distinguished not merely by what it teaches, but by how it teaches, and by the experiences it builds around learning that students simply cannot find anywhere else. From KidTown in kindergarten to the Mount St. Helens camping trip in 3rd grade, from student-run farmer’s markets to Antarctic explorations, Evergreen Academy is built on the conviction that the experiences of childhood are not separate from education, they are its most powerful form. We are proud to be recognized as one of the best private schools in Bothell by Niche.
