Report Cards and Parent Teacher Conferences, November 20-22
Conferences develop vital relationships between teachers and parents and allow you both to share information about your child.
Teachers will distribute report cards during parent-teacher conferences next week. Please be sure to check out Mukilteo’s Report Card Guide to learn about the report card and standards-based grading by clicking on your language of choice below:
If you have questions about your conference time-slot, contact your teacher through ParentSquare. If you haven't activated your ParentSquare account please click HERE for help.
Please remember that students will not attend school on conference days. Also, stop by the Lost and Found to claim your child's lost belongings.

Attendance Matters!
Attendance matters for all of us at Columbia Elementary, and we need your help!
If you need to report an absence, tardy or early dismissal, call our 24 hour attendance line at 425-366-2605 or CLICK HERE to email us!
Please note that teachers do not always have the opportunity to inform the office that your child is going to be absent. Please include office staff on all attendance emails to teachers.
- Early Pick-Up
If your child will be leaving early for the day, families/guardians will need to send a note, email the teacher or call the office on the main line at 425-366-2600. (Avoid calling between 8:45-9:15 AM)
Please do not leave a message on the attendance line. Please avoid picking up during their scheduled lunch, recess or time with specialists, as it may take extra time to retrieve your student.
Only an authorized person may take a child from school. Any student being dismissed prior to the regular dismissal time must be met in the office and the student must be signed out by the parent/guardian or authorized person picking them up.
- Pre-Arranged Absence
Any absence not specifically covered, such as family vacations or other extended absence, must have a Principal approved pre-arranged absence form in order to be excused. This form must be completed and submitted to the school office one week prior to the scheduled absence.
