I taught here many years ago but my experience was great. The principal was respectful and kind. The teachers there were very engaging and hardworking. The only negative is the parents. They have too much say in what happens at this school.

We can’t say enough about Washington! From the moment we stepped on campus, we were met with a warm and welcoming environment by the principal and the staff. Everyone is incredibly kind and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure every child feels supported.

We have been here three years and are super pleased with the school. Two of our three teachers were phenomenal; the third was ok (but the year was also interrupted with COVID). The culture of the school is super supportive and our impression is all kids have a lot of pride for the school. It has been strong academic content, combined with plenty of fun activities for the kids. We have been able to volunteer, so also feel engagement in the school. Overall Washington has been excellent. COVID has thrown everything up in the air, but for this second year of virtual learning, our teacher is exceptional at trying to keep the kids engaged.

Fair. My sons teacher was great. But she was kinda clicky with the other rich stuck up parents. Poor experience with leadership including the school district office.

I am a grandmother of Elijah and tatty I think that Washington school is number 1, I like the protection and the caution that you watch for people that come close the school.
