About Us:
The Washington Union School District, established in 1868, has a long history of academic excellence and high expectations for students. The district's committed staff, its supportive parent community, and its high-achieving students all contribute to the district's success.
The Board of Trustees has demonstrated a commitment to small class size, a rigorous and enriching academic program, and a focus on respect and personal responsibility for all students. The staff at the three schools in the district work together to see that every student is involved in engaging yet challenging instruction. As a result, our students receive a strong foundation in all academic subjects and are well-prepared to assume the challenges of high school.
To maintain our high standards, the district is engaged in ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the instructional program through the strategic planning process which includes a Washington Union School District Strategic Plan. We are proud of our accomplishments and are continually striving to improve and enhance the educational programs we offer students in our district.
