At Washington GT Magnet Elementary we believe that families are an important part of our school community. With a strong partnership between school and home we can accomplish wonderful things!
We invite you to be active in our school community. Our PTA has many opportunities for you to be involved. We also encourage you to volunteer, come eat lunch with your child or help chaperone field trips!
Washington also has a parent committee named the Parent Advisory and Support Team for Safe and Inclusive schools. This committee was created by our principal to share out and inform parents of steps we are taking as a staff to address issues of equity, race, and inclusion as well as provide a space for constructive feedback from families about how we are doing creating a safe, inclusive and supportive learning community for both parents and families.
Each year our PTA sponsors our shining star fundraiser. We do not ask you to sell anything! It is a 100% donation to Washington Elementary.
In addition, our PTA sponsors family nights throughout the community for parents to get to know one another and have fun with their kids. These have taken place at Jelly Beans Skate Rink, local parts, and Triangle Rock Club.

Our Washington community celebrates the diversity of our students! Over the past several years we have had a Holi festival, African American Cultural Celebration, Hispanic Family Night and a Family Heritage Night. Check out a few of the awesome photos below from these events.
