Washington - Caldwell Parent Update
Back to School 2024
Message from our Principal
Hello Bulldog Families,
I am very happy to share with you that the majority of the facility work on our building has been completed. One major area of facility work is the HVAC system. We are now a fully air-conditioned building! The system has been tested and is up and running successfully. In addition, the replacement of our boiler heating system is nearly complete and will be ready for the cold weather. We have installed new lighting throughout the building to increase efficiencies and upgrade our aging lighting fixtures. You will see and feel a significant difference in the school when you visit on Thursday, August 29 for Meet and Greet. We are so very grateful to those who supported our Capital Referendum to make this possible. Our students deserve the best learning environment possible and these changes will make a difference. Thank you!
As we approach the start of the school year, we want to share with you that the girl's basketball season is approaching quickly. With this in mind, Coach Dena McCormick will be holding open gym sessions for all grades 5-8 girls who are interested in playing basketball. The open gym nights are scheduled for September 10, 11 and 12 from 3:40 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. All girls in grades 5-8 that are interested in dropping in are welcome. There will be more details to come in the next week or so.
We are looking forward to seeing you on Monday during Rock the Block and Thursday at Meet and Greet!
Sincerely,
Kevin, Superintendent/Principal
