Starting next school year, and moving forward, Washington Elementary will have all grades (except grade 3 for the 2017-2018 school year) down to 3 classes each. This means an average of 26-28 children per class.

With class sizes so large the learning environment is sure to change, not to mention, some of our amazing teachers will be forced to leave. Another way to look at this is from a taxpayer point of view........other elementary schools are overflowing, but because they do not want to be re-districted to WES, our school will have 8 empty classrooms next year.

Please, we ask you to take a moment to sign this so we can take it to the school board in hopes of opposing this change. Also, please pass it on, post it in Facebook, whatever it takes to get it out there.
