Our kids truly love attending Washington STEM! The teachers and staff provide a great learning environment that has made our kids excited about going to school every day. The STEM enrichment is an added bonus to the other core subjects that have provided awesome learning opportunities that don't normally happen at the elementary level. Washington also offers multiple clubs and sports teams that enhance student interests and hobbies. As a parent, I feel that my kids are safe and well cared for.
