Washington Academic Middle School

Message from the Principal

Welcome to Washington Academic Middle School (WAMS). We are a 6th-8th grade middle school of approximately 1700 students. WAMS is located in Sanger, California, approximately 12 miles southeast of Fresno. We have a dynamic staff of educators that love teaching and are committed to the success and well being of every student.

We recently received our scores for our English learners and how they performed on our annual CELDT test which demonstrates their growth in learning the English language. WAMS exceeded both of the state targets!!!!! WAMS exceeded the first target of percent of students making annual progress in learning English by over 10%. WAMS had 40.1% of their students making progress exceeding the state goal of 30.6%. WAMS exceeded the second target by 12%. We had 63.6% of our English learners attain English proficiency on CELDT, exceeding the state goal of 51.6%. I am very proud of our students. Thanks to our parents who support us in making education important. Thanks to the staff who work diligently with our students to master English.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact the school.

Sincerely,

Jon Yost
