Lottery 2019
Our lottery was held in April. We had over 550 applicants.
2019-2020
Enrollment for the 2019-2020 school year is as follows:
New Location
Evergreen worked tirelessly during the summer of 2019 to prepare for a new location. After much consideration,
Evergreen elected to choose St. Catherine of Sienna School to accommodate its additional expansion. This
space was used by the Hempstead School District during the 2018-2019 school year when one of their schools
suffered from a fire. Evergreen installed technology, phones, WIFI, cameras and many other important features
to ensure for the safety of students and staff as well as to support student learning.
This year, Evergreen was able to play home basketball games at the new school location. This was an exciting
way to build school spirit.
Evergreen worked on logistics to coordinate transportation for its students to St. Catherine. It offered two
options for students and their families: an “Early Start” option for those that wanted breakfast and “Regular
Start.”
This temporary location allows Evergreen some time to grow while we plan for the construction of a new
facility on land we have purchased in Hempstead.
Evergreen’s tradition of morning assemblies continued with its Student Council helping to lead assemblies at
its new location. These morning assemblies continue to be a vital part of our school culture.
Land Acquisition - Fall 2019
Evergreen acquired property adjacent to the elementary school in the Fall of 2019. This land will enable the
elementary school to continue to expand and grow. It offers options to extend recreational and other space
including storage and even parking.
