The Washingtonville Central School District is proud to announce that Mindy Fowler, a teacher at Little Britain Elementary School, has received the 2025 Mid-Hudson School Study Council (MHSSC) Teaching Excellence Award.

Washingtonville High School’s gym is buzzing with excitement this spring, as the district celebrates its first Unified Basketball team!

The Transportation Department has officially completed all three mandatory NYS Bus Safety Drills for the 2024/2025 school year. In an effort to continue educating our students, here is the guide in which our drivers use to conduct their drills and prepare students for possible bus emergencies.  

The Making a Difference Award recognizes the many examples of individual teachers, aides, drivers, safety, and other District staff who are making a difference in the lives of our children throughout our buildings. Last week, Superintendent Dr. Larry Washington, along with Board of Education President Sharon Williams and Vice President Robin White, delivered the Making a Difference Award to each April recipient.
