Based on feedback from readers and conversations we’ve had with community members, reporting on education news throughout Snohomish County is a critical beat that The Daily Herald needs to cover more deeply than ever.
Good educational opportunities and systems help residents and communities to thrive. So we established the Education Project as a long-term journalism initiative that will inform and connect students, families, leaders, and others throughout the community on critical issues, challenges, and solutions for education in Snohomish County.
But first, we need your help to grow the fund.

“It has fundamentally changed my teaching in really stressful and exciting ways,” an EvCC teacher said. At all levels of education, ChatGPT poses a tricky question.
Edmonds schools are using money to provide support specifically for its homeless seniors living without a parent or guardian.
