We are so grateful to our PSO who enlisted an artist to complete phase one of our beautification project! Students will LOVE our newly decorated wall to inspire them during recess! #WeAllShine @Washington



It was a busy weekend at Washington! The roofers put the final touches on our long awaited new roof, the Palianto crew pitched in to clean up the garden, and the PSO Beautification Committee began the first phase of many to make our school more beautiful! #WeAllShine@Washington


School may still be weeks away, but the building is already looking great! Thank you to our dedicated teachers for working hard while "off the clock"! Our students are incredibly lucky to have you :) #WeAllShine@Washington


Get a jump on shopping for school supplies! Visit our website to view the supply lists for each grade! If you pre-ordered a supplies kit, we expect delivery at the end of August. https://sites.google.com/wwrsd.org/washington-school-supplies/home


School may be out for the students but teachers were still hard at work today. We reflected on the past school year and set goals for how to make next year even better! Best staff ever! #WeAllShine@Washington


Mr. Mendelson was our Principal for the Day this week! He got a taste of what it's like to be the big boss! He made announcements, helped some teachers move into new classrooms, and co-hosted a special picnic lunch for our Math-a-Thon winners! #WeAllShine@Washington


Congratulations to Washington's 5th graders who are officially moving on to WRMS! We are so proud of all you have accomplished and will miss you so much! #WeAllShine@Wash


Washington welcomes incoming kindergarten students and families.





2nd graders were transported back to the 1800s on their field trip last week to Museum Village. They learned what life was like then, made candles, visited an old schoolhouse, and even saw Harry The Mastodon - an elephant-like creature that lived thousands of years ago!



This month Mrs. Santagato visited each classroom to read the book Stand in My Shoes and discuss the importance of empathy. Our fifth grade Peer Leaders wrote various scenarios for our younger students to practice "standing in their shoes". #WeAllShine@Washington



Congratulations to the winners of our first ever Math-a-Thon! These students practiced their math facts practically every day and got to the GREEN LIGHT! We are so proud of their hard work! Our school has solved 1.43 MILLION facts on Reflex Math this year! #WeAllShine@Washington


Mrs. Amaral's class had a very special visitor! Mr. Amaral came to teach the students about plants. Each student planted their own special flower to give their moms for Mother's Day! #WeAllShine@Washington


Second grade students in Mrs. Fodor’s class were so happy to release these butterflies back into nature after watching them grow from caterpillars in the classroom! These 2nd graders studied the life cycle of a butterfly in science. #WeAllShine@Washington




To our WWRSD teachers, we want to wish you all Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Thank you for your hard work and playing such an important role in shaping children's education!


We are so lucky to such dedicated and caring teachers and staff! Happy Teacher Appreciation week! #WeAllShine@Washington


We are so proud of these students for their above and beyond efforts to be great citizens and friends at Washington School. They were recognized for demonstrating kindness, responsibility, sportsmanship, or inclusivity. Keep up the great work! #WeAllShine@Washington


Our third grade students rocked it out for their first time taking the NJSLA! Thank you to our teachers for making it a fun celebration of learning! #WeAllShine@Washington


As part of a Social Studies unit about our community, kindergarteners took a walking trip to the library! What a great way to foster lifelong readers! #WeAllShine@Washington


Mrs. Amaral's class had a special visit this week from our district therapy dog Colonel! #WeAllShine@Washington
