Students are getting a "Reboot" this morning on school rules and expectations. Washington School starts each semester with Expectation Stations for new and returning students. These are the expectations reviewed and implemented at different areas of the school environment. These allow students and staff to have a safe, fun, and accessible learning environment.
From epic throws to lots of laughter, it was a day filled with friendly competition and school spirit. What a fun way to celebrate all the hard work our students have put in this semester!
Winter break, here we come! ❄️✨
Reminder!! The street in front of Washington School and PJHS, Morrow Street, is a 1 Way street going North. You may only turn right when leaving Washington School. Please follow traffic signs and regulations!
We are partnering with Helping Hands Resale Shoppe in Pontiac as a fundraiser for our school. We will get a percentage of the proceeds from donations and sales between January 13, 2026 - January 17, 2026. Drop-offs may start for our week on January 11, 2026. Not only is this a fundraiser for ours, but it is also a way for our Washington families and staff to be involved in the community. Our staff will be volunteering, but we are unable to do all the hours, that’s where you come in! If you are willing and able, please use the link below to sign up to volunteer at the store during the 2 hour time slots. We appreciate the family partnerships not only in the school, but the community as well! Thank you!

Each year this tradition grows bigger and better—and this one was no exception.
Wishing you and your families a very Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🎈

Happy Halloween!
Mrs. Meisner has started a "Meisner Weekly Challenge" for the students. It is announced on Mondays and teachers send their recommendations for students that met the challenge on Fridays where they earn a stack of Washington Bucks that can be used in our school store! These challenges are related to positive behaviors to promote a positive learning environment. We did staying on task last week, and this week was eye contact. These are the winners this week - wow!! We will continue the challenges with respectful words, calm body, respecting property, etc.
Great job kids!
Red Ribbon week is next week! See attached for dress up days for Washington School!
