We’re honored to be recognized as one of @healthiergeneration's 2025 #HealthiestSchools! This achievement reflects our commitment to creating a healthy, supportive environment for every student, staff member, and family. See the full list at healthiestschools.org!

National children’s health organization Alliance for a Healthier Generation unveiled its 2025 list of America’s Healthiest Schools, celebrating 1,120 K–12 schools nationwide for their commitment to advancing whole child health, including Washington Elementary.

Supported by Del Monte Foods, Kaiser Permanente, and Kohl’s Cares, Healthier Generation’s annual award program recognizes schools for implementing evidence-based policies and practices to support academic success and lifelong well-being. Schools are recognized in nine health-related topic areas. Washington Elementary was awarded in four categories: Cultivating Staff Well-Being, Increasing Family & Community Engagement, Improving Nutrition & Food Access, and Supporting School Health Services.

"Schools play a crucial role in positively shaping the health and well-being of our nation's youth, and they deserve national recognition for their outstanding efforts," said Kathy Higgins, CEO of Healthier Generation. "The dedication of school leaders, educators, and staff to support the physical, emotional, and academic needs of their students is nothing short of extraordinary. Their commitment is creating healthier futures for children and communities alike."
