It’s cool to be kind at Washington! Check out some of latest Caught Being Kind students. They received a shout out & 5 School Bucks to spend in our School Store for their kindness!
Washington School is celebrating 6 years since creating our School Store! The School Store is a great incentive program and allows all staff members to give out School Bucks for a variety of reasons (kind acts, academic achievements, etc). We utilize the store to also teach students the value of a job. The 5th & 6th graders apply and work in the store and even receive a “paycheck”. Check out some of our classes shopping for the first time this school year. Thank you to Laura Hempel for decorating our School Store to celebrate our 6th year!
