Where is Sno-Isle TECH and How do Students Get There?

Sno-Isle TECH students are transported by their sending district transportation to and from our campus for their half-day session at 9001 Airport Road, Everett, WA 98204. Morning session is held from 7:55 AM-10:25 AM and afternoon session is held from 11:10 AM-1:40 PM. 

 

Can Students Drive to Sno-Isle TECH?

We are a non-driving school with some exceptions.  Students who are homeschooled that have no bus and can apply for a permit.  Students who are running start, please plan your classes carefully as that is NOT a guarantee for a parking pass.  We serve 1,000+ students per day with 44 parking spots.  Parking off-site is a disciplinary offense.  Several of our sending districts forbid driving and we need to honor that.  A student can obtain a one-day pass with 24 hours’ notice and communication in advance from a parent.  At that time, it is determined whether the pass will be granted.  If you oversleep and miss your bus, do not drive.  Report to your sending high school and they will communicate with us.  That is not an excused absence according to state attendance laws.

 

What is the Attendance Policy?

Students are expected to be in class each day that their sending high school is in session and transportation is provided to Sno-Isle TECH by the sending district. For more information, please refer to the Student Handbook.

 

How Do I report an Absence?

Call the attendance line at 425.348.2222, or email scattendance@mukilteo.wednet.edu.

 

What is the Code of Conduct for Attending Students?

Students attending Sno-Isle TECH are a dedicated group of individuals interested in being here Monday-Friday for the entirety of the school year. In the event the student does not follow published classroom behavior expectations, discipline will be implemented. For more information, please refer to the Student Handbook. 

 

What is the Dress Code for Students at Sno-Isle TECH?

We require students to dress in a manner that matches the industry safety standards they are studying.  One thin layer of cotton can be lifesaving and prevent injury.  Students who are out of safe attire boundaries will be asked to correct the clothing and we can provide an outfit to change into when you arrive that will assure a safer working environment.  No exceptions!  Your safety must come first.  We adhere to the Mukilteo school board policies regarding attire, but must be more stringent for safety sake.  Please call the assistant director with any questions.
