Flags to Wave Over Washington Schools This Spring
The school board will raise tall flag staffs and display new flags at every building in town. Flags will be raised each morning and lowered each evening unless bad weather keeps them indoors. Several banners around town are ragged and dirty and some places lack any flag. Teachers will attend the Southeastern Iowa teachers convention in Ottumwa on April 4 to 6, with school dismissals those days. The senior class play “Claim Allowed” is set for the second week of April, and Dr. W. A. Jessup of the State University of Iowa will speak at the May 22 commencement.
