At Washington Preschool, our teachers wear AVID and college shirts on Wednesdays to show our little learners that their futures are full of possibilities! Whether they grow up to be artists, builders, college students, or entrepreneurs—we’re nurturing confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning every step of the way. 🌟📚 #AVIDEarlyLearning #GrowthMindset #FutureReadyKids

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
