My son, Aiden, is in Kindergarten with Mrs. McClusky and he really loves it. Everyday he says positive things about his teacher and loves reviewing his letter of the week with me. This week he got a prize out of the treasure box. I am so impressed with how wonderful Washington Elementary School is. Staff is easy to get ahold of and Mrs. W is great to work with. Good Job Washington School!
