It was what you would expect from a small private school. Not really big on anything but still a good place for academics.

Both my children attended Washburn for over 5 years and graduated. I knew right away my kids were happy and settled in comfortably learning in an integrated wholesome fashion that fostered family values and community service. The year round schedule with extra field trips in the summer helped fill in down time in an affordable way so they did not lose valuable education time in the summer. My son flourished in his reading after having be a struggle and my daughter developed life long friendships. We quickly became part of the Washburn family.

My my daughter is at Washburn Academy she's 6 years old been there since she was 4 year old. She reads and writing English as we are originally from Israel and it's amazing to see how she do that thanks to this amazing School.

I loved the teachers and the curriculum. Both my kids graduated from Washburn Academy. I feel that a substantial part of my children growing into socially aware, caring human beings is from what they were taught at Washburn Academy. Academically Washburn Academy is top notch. Both my guys love to st...
