Washington Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Gallipolis City school district, located in Gallipolis, OH with about 480 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.
