Our district will recognize and celebrate Week of Respect from Monday, October 6 to Friday, October 10, 2025. The Anti-Bullying Bills of Rights set aside this week to promote positive character education and allow for activities designed to prevent harassment, intimidation, and bullying. Our school counselors are encouraging students to come together and promote school spirit and positive peer interactions. Check your email and/or our website for Week of Respect newsletter.
Today, our students, families, and staff celebrated healthy habits, community spirit, and a love for the environment by participating in our 4th annual Walk and Roll to School Day! Surrounded by sunshine and smiling faces, the energy and enthusiasm of our school community were absolutely unforgettable! A heartfelt shoutout to the Township of Washington Police Department for their participation and unwavering commitment to ensuring our safety! #JustFocusonGrowing

This year, our 5th grade team made the exciting switch to a departmentalized model, and our students are thriving! 🎉 They’re building independence, navigating different classrooms and teachers with confidence, and diving deeper into each subject area.
We’re so proud of the way they’ve embraced this new structure — showing responsibility, flexibility, and a love of learning every step of the way. 💪📚✨
