Each week this newsletter is a reminder of all we have to be thankful for as a community. Even on a week without school, we are reminded by this newsletter of students who are shining examples to others and of those who volunteer their time and resources for the good of our students. As we pause to be thankful, we can all rejoice in the community we have at Washington School!

I wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving on behalf of the Board of Directors, the faculty, staff, and administration of Washington School!

Jeff Pinnow, Head of School
Thankful for our students who volunteer!

Sebastian Coleman has built several Little Free Libraries and installed them in Washington County. The latest library was placed at EE Bass. Not only has he built and installed the libraries, but he teamed with the Community Foundation of Washington County so they will be stocked full of books for children and young adults.

Sebastian is a junior at Washington School. He is the Drum Major of the band and is also a leader on the school's shooting team. He is an exemplary leader both on and off campus, and Washington School is proud he is a General!

#WeAreWashington
Our new Washington School stickers were sent home last week. Show your support for WS by putting the sticker on your car. We will have a social media contest during the holidays. Post a picture with your family and the sticker on your car and use the hashtag for a chance to win fun prizes. Some of the categories will include longest distance traveled and best beach picture. Our judges will award more so use your creativity!
Support the PTO by purchasing a holiday ham. Clint Williams and his crew will smoke the hams, and they will be delivered to the school December 14th - 16th. They are perfect for freezing and corporate gifts. Send your payment by December 7th. The cost is $40 per ham.
On #GivingTuesday, please consider a donation to Washington School. Donate online and designate to the Endowment Fund, join the Circle of Gold or remember a loved one with a memorial gift.
