The WJHS Builder’s Club recently completed their cleanup project at Washington Junior High. Members, sponsorship by the Kiwanis Amer’s, raked leaves, picked up sticks,  pulled weeds, and picked up trash on school grounds. Twelve loads were taken away from the site. A special thank you to BC members and Kiwanis Amer’s who helped with this event.

Thanks to the Washington County Riverboat Foundation, five more of the Washington Community Schools District's buses were fitted with a digital camera system. The system is manufactured by Radio Engineering Industries, of Omaha, NE.

The system provides three interior camera views: front, rear, and the entrance door. An exterior camera is mounted on the side of the bus to catch stop arm violators. Every camera has infra-red technology for low light conditions, and all three interior cameras are equipped with microphones to record sound.
