DISABILITY AWARENESS MONTH
Approaching disabilities with a positive and inclusive mindset is a crucial element of a healthy school system. The concept of "inclusion" has a far broader reach than placement in the regular classroom. We want ALL students to be active and valued participants in the school community, using their abilities to contribute in a multitude of ways. In October, as we observe Disability Awareness Month, we look to highlight and celebrate the many ways that students with disabilities enrich our school.

Who WAS George Washington Bush?
George Washington Bush was one of the first settlers in the Washington Territory. He was well known for his generosity and helpfulness to others who struggled to make themselves a home and a life in the rugged Pacific Northwest. He was born in the late 1700's. During his young adult years, he served in the military. In 1844, he joined his friends to make the trek to settle near Puget Sound in the New Market area (present-day Tumwater). After petitioning the government, his family was granted 640 acres on which to settle. The Bush family farm became one of the most productive and valuable in early Washington. The Bushes gained a reputation for their hospitality and charity. Bush, along with Michael Simmons and others, built the first gristmill and sawmill on Puget Sound at Tumwater Falls. Because of his unique significance in the history of the Tumwater area, the Tumwater School District decided to recognize George Washington Bush's accomplishments by gracing this school with his name.
