School Grounds- All of Washington Community Schools buildings WIFI networks extend to outside areas like the immediate sidewalks around the buildings, and in some cases, the parking lots.
Washington Carnegie Library- The library has free Wi-Fi access and can accommodate an unlimited amount of students with their own devices. There is an unattended children policy of age 8 and under (must be accompanied by an adult or someone over 14). For students needing a device who are 14 and older- they can also use 14 wired computers. For students under 14, there are 2 computer stations in our youth department.
