Taylor Street Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Washington Borough School District school district, located in WASHINGTON, NJ with about 182 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 2nd Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.
