How to get involved
Warrior Connect meetings are now online! Attend monthly meetings from wherever you are and get updated on what’s going on at Washington High School. Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of every school month at 7 p.m. All Wash families will receive an email with a link for that month’s meeting several days before the meeting. Monthly meetings include the Counselor’s Report, a Q&A with a representative of Administration, and guest speakers. You do not have to be a ‘member’ to attend these meetings. Those that attend are those that chart the course of this organization.
