In January, Washington School participated in the Great Kindness Challenge. As a result, we have been recognized as a Kindness Certified School! The class who performed the most acts of kindness was 1G, who earned an extra recess for their wonderful accomplishment!



Our fifth grade Peer Leaders demonstrate leadership and responsibility by assisting our younger students daily. They are wonderful role models for their fellow Washington students!

A beautiful day to be enjoying the sunshine! Research says that fresh air and movement help our brains to function better, and therefore learn more. So fun catching up with our amazing students! @WashCardinals
