A Note from the Office
Thank you families for your support during these first few weeks of school. In my 20 years in education, this has been the most challenging start to any school year. The staff at Washington has worked around the clock (literally) to try and make remote learning as efficient and engaging for our students. It is only in collaboration with our families that we have been able to make remote learning work.
Thank you for your continued support!
-Sandra Schlatter
