Campus

Evergreen High School is located on the largest plot of land in the school district, sharing its land with a middle school, transportation facility, and the district's only football stadium. Previously, Legacy High School and an elementary school were located on the plot too, but these were since demolished and moved to new locations.

Performing Arts

In 2008, the marching band was invited to play at the make-a-wish Presidential Inauguration parade for Barack Obama. [2] Evergreen High School has won more than 250 trophies and awards in the past, for both field and parade marching.

Athletics

Evergreen competes in the Greater St. Helens 3A league.

In 2004, EHS football team became the first 4A team from the Southwest Washington District IV to make a state championship game. After falling behind early 14-0 to Skyline Spartans, the Plainsmen won 28-14 . Running back Taylor Rank stood out for the Plainsmen, carrying the ball 28 times for 211 yards and three touchdowns. Rank played football at the University of South Carolina until graduation in 2009. [3]
