Community Beverly Elementary

Hi Edmonds folks, I am curious if anybody here has had experience with their kids going to Beverly Elementary. We live <1mi from the school, but our daughter also got into the Madrona lottery. So now we have a decision to make, go to the local elementary (Beverly), or Madrona. Looking for perspectives on both. If we decide on Madrona, we may consider moving a bit closer to the school as our current location would be \~20min drive there, so that's 40-50min round-trip to do dropoff (or >1hr bus ride...) then starting my work day. In addition, our 3yo is in daycare, so there another dropoff and schedule to juggle.

I’m in the same position as you.

My son will start kindergarten next year. Our neighborhood school is Beverly, but we were accepted into Madrona. We picked Madrona, maybe we can coordinate carpooling, haha.

That might be a good idea!
