Superintendent's Office

Dear Families and Staff,

On Monday, August 18, 2025, we will open our doors to welcome nearly 8,600 students to a new school year. The first day of school is a meaningful milestone—whether it’s a child’s first day of kindergarten, the start of 8th grade, or anywhere in between. No matter where your child is on their learning journey in the Evergreen School District (ESD), my commitment to you is to provide a learning environment that is challenging, supportive, safe, and inspiring.

At every Evergreen School District elementary and middle school, we embrace a personalized approach to your child's education. Students are greeted by name and cared for by staff who are genuinely invested in their growth. We’re proud to offer distinguished academic programs that reflect our commitment to meeting the aspirations of every learner. We believe that student success is built on strong partnerships among teachers, staff, and families working together.

The Evergreen School District is proud to be recognized as one of the leading school districts in Santa Clara County. We offer the resources and opportunities of a large district while maintaining the close-knit, personal feel of a smaller community. Our California Distinguished Schools and strong educational practices reflect the dedication and hard work of our exceptional certificated, classified and management team members.

While we celebrate our achievements, we are always looking towards the future—striving to learn, grow, improve, and better serve our students.

As we begin this new school year, I look forward to partnering with you and our entire school community. Together, we will make this year a successful, enriching experience for each and every student.

Warm regards,

Dr. Antoine Hawkins
Superintendent
Evergreen School District
