Washington Elementary School
Welcome to Washington Elementary in beautiful Hanover, Pennsylvania. On behalf of the Washington faculty and staff, I would like to welcome you. At Washington we pride ourselves in providing a high quality education while learning in a clean and comfortable environment. We strive to provide and teach every child at their educational level and look to maximize their true potential. The success of your child is built upon the efforts of the parent, the child, and the school working together to offer support to help each child reach their potential. This can be accomplished by communicating with each other, working within a team setting, and making sure we all support the needs of the learner.
Together we are “Committed to Excellence”.
Here are a few tips to help your Washington child succeed and grow:
- Ensure that your child is at school on time each day.
- Attend parent/teacher conferences and school events.
- Monitor your child’s homework daily.
- Expect and support positive behavior at school.
- Read with your child or encourage your child to read daily.
- Become active and engaged in your school PTO organization.
- Monitor your child’s take home folder to maintain communication.
The Washington Elementary School is a strong school deep and rich in tradition. Our core values extend back to a culture committed to family structure, hard work, and teamwork. These values help make Washington soar each year as Nighthawks. We are blessed with a wealth of resources but none are as important as our caring teachers and parents which help to make Washington the best it can be.
I look forward to working with you in educating your children and am honored to be your Principal at Washington Elementary.
Mr. Mark A. Hershner
