Washburn High School is an community high school in the Minneapolis school district. Students come from various places around the city and the world in search for a strong academic experience. Washburn serves American-born students as well as refugees or undocumented students. Many of our students are homeless and/or highly mobile. For some English language learners children, Washburn High School is the first experience of formal education.
One way to support learners is to support home language development. Dual language resources, like the dual language dictionaries, encourage academic language acquisition in the home language as well as English. Staff's greatest desire is for students to find Washburn a comfortable, safe, validating place for personal and academic growth.
