SPIRIT Week
Why does Attendance Matter? Because everyday counts—and so does your child!

When your student is in school consistently, they’re not just keeping up with lessons—they’re building strong habits, friendships, and the confidence to succeed. Missing even a few days here and there can make it harder to catch up and stay engaged. Regular attendance helps your child stay connected, supported, and ready to reach their full potential. Let’s team up to help them thrive—one day at a time! 🏫🎒📝

This week our Washington Spirit Stick goes to Mrs. Olson! She is a 1st grade teacher. Mrs. Olson inspires, adapts, and supports her students every single day. She’s proactive and always brings thoughtful solutions instead of just pointing out issues. She stays calm when things get busy and always makes learning fun — we’re lucky to have her at Washington School!

Congratulations Mrs. Olson!!!

GLOW GETTER Award!

Each month teachers nominate students who are "Glow Getters". These students demonstrate kindness, responsibility, a positive attitude and are hard workers. These students are role models for all. The winners this month are Hank, Jackson, and Parker. They signed our Glow Getter wall and will eat a special lunch with our other winners at the end of the school year! We are so proud of you!
