Welcome from Our Head of School

Welcome to Washington School, home of the Generals!!

It is truly a joy to welcome our students, families, faculty, and staff back to campus. As we begin this new chapter together, I am filled with excitement and gratitude for all that lies ahead. This year is especially meaningful as our school community continues to grow with enrollment now surpassing 560 students!

Our continued commitment to providing the best educational experience possible for every student and every family is at the heart of everything we do at Washington School. We are proud of the exceptional academic opportunities, meaningful relationships, engaging experiences, and supportive environment we provide each day. Our goal is not simply to educate our students, but to inspire them to discover their strengths, pursue their passions, and become confident, compassionate, and capable individuals.

One of my favorite things about a new school year is seeing our campus come alive again—the smiles at the front doors, the conversations in the hallways, the excitement in our classrooms, the energy on our athletic fields, and all of the hustle and bustle that make our school such a special place. I look forward to seeing our campus filled with that energy throughout the entire school year.

Thank you for entrusting your children to us and for being such an important part of our school community. We look forward to partnering with you, celebrating our students, and making this another great school year filled with learning, growth, achievement, and countless wonderful memories.

Here’s to an incredible year ahead!

God Bless and Go Generals!
