Message from the editor:
Reflecting on the past year, Everett has been through a lot. We had a mayoral election, intense weather, the closure of a critical food supplier, and dealt with the impacts of a federal shutdown.
We also had multiple new businesses open, celebrated school achievements, showcased community support, welcomed a new airline, then said goodbye to said airline, and so much more.
But through it all, our reporters have been there. Despite our small size, we are dedicated to bringing you stories that impact our local community, as well as highlighting stories that might go unnoticed.
Last year, my goal was to continue to grow and become a reliable and trustworthy source of news for Everett residents. I can confidently say we achieved this. Thank you to all of our readers for your continued support and for holding us accountable.
Looking ahead to 2026, we plan to bring you more diverse and in-depth stories that cover a wide range of topics from city council, public safety, events, businesses and more.
Here is looking to 2026!
Mikayla,
Everett Post Editor
