The Illinois School Safety Drill Act requires that within 90 days of every academic school year, we conduct at least one lockdown drill. Please discuss this with your child and remind them that while it is only a drill, they do need to listen, and follow directions intently. The drill will be held on Thursday, 9-10-2026, and announced before it begins.
We are asking all staff and students to wear their Belonging Begins With Belleville shirts tomorrow.
Just a reminder that today is Dine to Donate for Henry Raab & Washington Schools at Bennie's. If you go to Bennie's anytime today, please mention Henry Raab and/or Washington and a portion of your sales will come back to our school(s). Thank you!
Welcome back! Classes resume tomorrow, August 18th. Preschool families will drop off and pick up students at your teachers selected entrance to the building. For safety and security of our students and staff, all visitors will need to access the office on the west side of the building to enter Washington School. Thank you for adhering to the parking lot designations. Our main objective is to keep students safe during arrival and dismissal. Early Childhood buses will be running a little behind the first few days as we learn the route. We want to be as diligent as possible as we get your children home safely. We appreciate your patience. We're looking forward to a great year!
After July 18, 2026, you may begin the registration process for students who are NEW to the district for the 2026-2027 school year. Please go to

There is no school tomorrow, May 26th at Washington. Instead, we invite you to attend our school carnival at Washington from 9:00 until 11:00.
Thank you Emily for all you do for Washington, we are lucky to have you!
