Friday, January 12, 2024 - No school for students
This day will serve as a professional development day for our staff. There will be no school for students.
Monday, April 8, 2024 - No school for students or staff
In light of the upcoming solar eclipse and the potential for associated traffic challenges, we have decided to designate April 8th as a calamity day. There will be no school for students or staff.

Washington High School students had the opportunity to hear from Veteran, Gerald Fox, this morning.
Mr. Fox is a Vietnam War Veteran who wrote a memoir titled “Just One Soldier’s Story”. Kevin Collins, who served in the Navy, was moved by the story and helped turn the memoir into a documentary with assistance from Stark State College’s digital media program.
After his presentation, Mr. Fox was presented with a Quilt of Valor. A Quilt of Valor is awarded to Service Members or Veterans who have been touched by war to thank them for their service.

Thank you, Veterans!❤️
Massillon Intermediate School student leaders and staff held a Veterans Day program earlier this week! The 6th and 8th grade choirs performed, students recited poems/essays and they recognized our Veterans from each branch of the military!
