Washington Grade School District #52

Back by popular demand! The Spirit Wear Team Store has reopened. We have modified a few of the designs, along with adding a number of new items. The Team Store will close on Nov. 9., with all orders being ready for pick-up before Christmas. Take a look! https://wms-winter.itemorder.com

This week is Principal Appreciation Week and Friday, October 23rd is Principal Appreciation Day! Thank you Mrs. Bowman and Mr. Foehrkolb for all you do! We truly appreciate you and your commitment to the D52 community!

Congratulations to our students of the week for October 16!

The Washington Middle School Cross Country Team finished off their season last night with some very strong performances at the Sectional Meet. 4 WMS runners placed in the top 10, which would have qualified them for the State CC meet if it would have taken place this year. Addy Hooste (10th), Jenna Spiezio (7th), Jayne Hermann (3rd), and Owen Spiezio (7th). Great job Panthers!

Congratulations to our students of the week!

Would you or someone you know want to sub at D52? We could certainly use the help at both buildings. If you are already on our sub list please look in Frontline for open positions. If you would like to become a sub please call the WMS office at 444-3361. Thank you!

Why is the flag lowered? We answer this question quite a bit so I thought I would share the following notice that came my way today: The Department of Central Management Services has received notice from Governor JB Pritzker that all person or entities covered by the Illinois Flag Display Act are to fly the flags at half-staff in honor and remembrance of: South Holland Firefighter Dylan Cunningham All United States flags and State of Illinois flag should already be lowered due to the COVID-19 disaster proclamation.
