WASHINGTON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Washington Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the El Centro Elementary school district, located in El Centro, CA with about 352 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 16 teachers, Washington Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 22:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Washington Elementary School, located at 223 S. First St. in El Centro, California, serves as a foundational educational institution within the El Centro Elementary School District. Situated in the heart of the Imperial Valley, the school is committed to providing a comprehensive academic environment that fosters student growth, foundational literacy, and essential social skills for young learners in the local community.

The school operates under the umbrella of the El Centro Elementary School District, which emphasizes a structured and supportive approach to primary education. By maintaining a focus on core curriculum standards and community engagement, Washington Elementary aims to prepare its students for a successful transition into middle school and beyond. For parents and community members interested in specific academic programs, enrollment procedures, or school-wide events, the district’s official website at http://www.ecesd.org serves as the primary hub for administrative updates and resources.
