District officials noted these numbers are still very early and have not been fully cleaned up, meaning final graduation rates could change as data is reviewed and verified. Still, the early numbers offer a reason to celebrate another graduating class moving on from Washington County schools. For seniors, graduation marks the end of one chapter and the start of another, whether that means college, technical training, military service, church service, or entering the workforce.

Grads Are Rad

With nearly 3,000 graduates districtwide, Washington County’s Class of 2026 is closing out the year with strong preliminary completion numbers and plenty of reasons for the community to celebrate.
