The Washington School Community is dedicated to providing equal access to learning for all students, where race, gender or socio-economic status does not predict which students achieve at school. Through culturally sensitive instructional practices we recognize the varied learning styles and intelligences of all students while maintaining high expectations.

Our commitment to the implementation of state standards through the used of board-adopted curricula will ensure that all students achieve to high levels of proficiency as determined by grade level, school, district, and state measures.
