Washington School

Today we had our first Bus Evacuation Drill! 🚌 Students did a wonderful job listening to the Durham bus drivers as they learned how to stay safe in case of an emergency. A big thank you to Durham Bus Services for helping our students learn these important safety skills! 💛 #TheWashingtonWay #BusEvacuation #HarvardRising

🌟What better way to start the year than with a brand new playground? 🛝

Our new playground is packed with fun and learning opportunities:
✨ Slides and swings for endless giggles
✨ A toy bus and playhouse for imaginative adventures
✨ A music wall to let creativity shine
✨ Climbing walls to build strength and confidence
✨ Basketball hoops for big and little athletes
✨ Plenty of shady spots to keep cool on warm days
✨ & so much more!

We’re so grateful for our new playground and excited to watch our students grow, make friends, and create joyful memories here this year! 💛

Washington students have been busy all year growing their minds—and their journals show just how far they’ve come! Journals build essential skills through creativity, reflection, and expression. ✍️📝 As these journals are sent home this week, be sure to take a look and celebrate their amazing growth! 🎉Through WICOR (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization, and Reading), we help our students build strong foundations that will support them far beyond the classroom. #WICOR #TheWashingtonWay #HarvardRising
