Washington Students Read 255,456 Pages!

For three weeks in March and April the students at Washington participated in their first Jester & Pharley Read-a-thon. The students at Washington read a total of 255,456 pages. This will enable the Jester & Pharley Phund to donate 35 copies of The Jester Has Lost His Jingle and 35 Jester & Pharley Dolls to St.Francis Medical Center to put smiles on the faces of children who are sick. Washington showed that Reading Makes a Difference!

Pennies for Patients Fundraiser

LLSPennies_CR2.jpg
 

Since 1994, millions of dollars have been raised in pennies and other spare change by more than 10 million elementary, middle and high school students throughout the country. The funds, collected during a three-week period, benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Students across the country collected pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters during the Pennies for Patients campaigns benefiting the Society.

In the Pennies for Patients campaign, the class collecting the most change in each school receives a pizza party.

Washington students collected $3353.51 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society!

Welcome to the Home of the Bobcats!

Welcome to our school!  Our goal is to ensure that all our students receive a solid academic foundation that will propel them as they progress through middle and high school so that they can graduate from high school prepared for college and a career.  Our teachers, administrators, other staff and volunteers devote countless hours each year to providing our students with a solid education in a nurturing environment.

We are proud of the programs we have that support students.  We are especially excited about the new districtwide plan to improve achievement.  Our teachers and administration are joining others from across the district to align our curriculum to the California state standards so that our students experience the best education possible. 

We encourage you to become an active member of our school community.  Working together, our students can experience the highest quality education.
