The construction is almost complete at WGS and the JR/SR High school! We will be right on time for school to begin on August 22nd. A huge shout out to our custodial crew for working so hard to get everything ready. We can't wait for parents and students to see the finished product when school starts! USD 388 is planning on having an open house in September, to share what the community helped build. Thank you Ellis! More to come on a date.

We are excited to share the progress on our high school construction projects and the ongoing improvements at Washington Grade School, both funded by the recent school bond. At the high school, upgrades include a new secure entry to enhance student safety, a remodeled office for improved administrative efficiency, and state-of-the-art science rooms to enrich our educational offerings. At Washington Grade School, significant progress has been made on the electrical upgrades, the installation of a new HVAC system, and the replacement of flooring throughout the building. These enhancements will ensure a safer, more comfortable, and modern learning environment for our students. We appreciate your support and patience as we work to create better facilities and thank you for being an integral part of our school community.
