Currently, Washington School does not have any power. Students and staff are safe, and we are working closely with Com Ed for a return time for power. If power cannot be restored within a reasonable time, we will dismiss Washington School only. I will let you know once a decision has been made. If you decide to pick your student up before a decision is made, please have your identification with you. Students won't be released without identification.

Today we celebrated our beloved, kind hearted, hard-working custodian, Dale Hoover! After 31 years in our district, he swept the floor one last time before heading into retirement! He will definitely be missed in the hallways at Washington but we wish him a WONDERFUL retirement!
Due to construction on Galena Ave., Palmyra Ave. and around Reagan/Madison School, bus routes have been extremely long. Delays as long as 15-20 minutes getting over the Galena Ave. bridge have been recorded and there are three identified routes that must go over the bridge twice each evening. In order for the shuttle system to operate correctly, all of the buses must wait for all of the other buses to arrive at the shuttle location before leaving thus each delay potentially delays multiple routes. We realize this is an inconvenience to the families and challenging for the students especially when the temperatures remain warm. While we are working diligently with the bus company on multiple issues, unfortunately, until these construction projects are completed, we do not anticipate consistent improvements in the route times. We appreciate your patience.
