Dear Washington Wildcat Families,

It is an honor to be the principal of Washington Elementary School. 

Becoming an elementary school principal has been a longstanding aspiration of mine, and I am delighted to embark on this journey within the community that has been my home throughout my entire career.  My husband and I have raised our children in Hawthorne, therefore, we have a shared commitment to the well-being of our schools. I am committed to ensuring the welfare and academic growth of your children, treating each student as I would my own. Together, we will strive to provide an educational environment that meets the unique needs of every child, ensuring their safety and security at all times while at school.

Thank you for being a part of the Wildcat team!

Be well and I will see you at school!

Jackie Passero, Principal
