Washington High School & Academy

Here are some local resources!

Students took learning beyond the classroom on Wednesday with a field trip to Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine in Baltimore! From walking the historic grounds to connecting with the story behind “The Star-Spangled Banner,” it was an engaging experience that brought history to life in a powerful way.

Happy Secretaries Week to the amazing women who keep Washington High running smoothly every single day! Your hard work, dedication, and support do not go unnoticed. Thank you for all that you do for our students, staff, and school community! #SecretaryWeek #ThankYou #WashingtonHighSchool
