SALT … Sweet!

EPS Receives Grant for Middle School Programming at the Lafayette


The EPS is thrilled to announce that it has received a significant state grant to implement year-round after-school and summer programming for Lafayette School 5-8 graders. The district was awarded a 21st Century Community Learning Center’s SALT Grant in the amount of $180,000. SALT stands for Supporting Additional Learning Time. It will be immensely helpful in the district’s efforts to create Out of School Time (OST) opportunities for middle school students.

In developing the program at the Lafayette, we are hiring one Site Coordinator and four Lead Teachers. The Site Coordinator will be responsible for supervising the daily operations of the after school program. This includes  hiring and training staff, supervising student leaders, organizing field trips and events, creating program policies and systems, providing accurate data for reporting purposes, managing supplies and materials, communicating with community partners, and ensuring positive participation and regular attendance of all program participants.

Lead Teachers will be responsible for the daily operations of the after school program, developing and leading enrichment activities, supporting with homework, and ensuring students actively and positively participate in all program components.

The Heart of Our Robotics Program

Leaders Needed for Grades 6-8 and EHS


The EPS is once again offering robotics programs, one for students in grades 6-8 and one at Everett High School. We are looking for multiple educators to work with K-8 STEM Director Rupi Kaur in leading after-school robotics teams that will compete in the FIRST© LEGO© League (FLL) and the FIRST© Tech Challenge (FTC).

The FLL, which is for students in grades 6-8, introduces students to the excitement of science and technology, while building self-confidence and valuable life skills. Participants will design, build and program a LEGO© SPIKE PRIME robot to solve a particular STEM challenge in preparation for the MA FLL competition in December. 

The Everett High team will compete in the FTC, which challenges students to design, build, program, and operate robots to compete in a head-to-head challenge in an alliance format. . The robot kit is reusable from year to year and can be coded using a variety of levels of Java-based programming. Teams design and build robots, raise funds, design and market their team brand, and do community outreach to earn specific awards.
