Washington Middle School was the first school where PPS HI held tours and transition nights, back in 2012. The purpose of these events are twofold: to help prepare parents for the changes that their child will be experiencing, and also to encourage parents to visit our local middle and intermediate schools to see all the great things that are happening on these campuses. Now, we hope that all the parents of Hawaii are able to recognize the great things happening in Washington Middle School with the concurrence of two awards given this month: Sung Man Park was named Hawaii’s 2017 State Teacher of the Year, and Michael Harano was named as the 2017 National Distinguished Principal.
Congratulations to both and we look forward to years of continuing to collaborate with this great school!
