Washington Elementary would like to recognize and thank the volunteers of Genesis Church. These volunteers work with our a group of our students twice a week off campus to tutor and provide a meal.
Genesis also provides food and clothing for families in the Fayetteville community.
These volunteers are always “a call way” to help any of our students and we are proud of our partnership and thank them for the their service.
