History
Throughout the 1960s and 70s, there was a total of 13 elementary schools in the WLS district. Into the 1960s, each was K-6, after which students attended either Washington Junior High School or Jefferson Junior High School for grades 7-8 before attending Whitmer High School. Later, all 13 of these elementary schools funneled into the Jefferson Junior High building, which was 7th grade only. After 7th grade, students went to the Washington building, which was 8th grade. The Whitmer building was 9th-12th grade, with the Vocational facility being completed in the 1970s.
