Welcome to Washington Street School

Welcome to Washington Street School. Each year we look forward to providing exciting and challenging school curricula and ensuring that students have every opportunity to be successful as they work to achieve the standards set forth by the Maine Learning Results. As we work toward these goals, we expect that children will use the Community of Caring values of respect, responsibility, caring, trust, and family to ensure that the school community is a safe and nurturing environment for all. The Washington Street School houses five classes of first grade students, five classes of second grade students, and five classes of third grade students. Physical education, art, and music are offered to all children in the school. The Library is open three days a week for scheduled classroom use. The federally-funded Title I Reading and Math program and special education programs are offered to students who may qualify for those services. Research indicates that children are most successful in school when their parents are actively involved in the learning process. The school staff encourages cooperation between home and school in establishing and achieving educational goals for your children. There are various opportunities for parent involvement including, but not limited to, regular contact with teachers, PTU participation, and volunteerism, to name a few. The Washington Street School staff looks forward to working with parents and children to build a community of learners.
