LIST OF WATERTOWN SCHOOLS
Overview of Watertown’s Public & Private
Schools
See List of Public and Private Schools Below
The Watertown area is rich in educational possibilities. Each of the
20 schools strives to provide quality education for the students
that will benefit them for a lifetime.
Public support and satisfaction with the public school system has
been strong throughout its history. Watertown claims the First
Kindergarten and of course, one of the United States astronauts,
Daniel C. Brandenstein, is a Watertown High School graduate
(1961).
The community approved a referendum question in
November, 2008.
According to the District Website, the citizens were asked to
approve $22,385,000 to renovate and make additions to district
elementary schools. The project would include $9.6 million at
Douglas Elementary for 11 new classrooms, construction of an
elevator, a new cafeteria and kitchen and a new entrance and
office space; $400,000 in maintenance work at the high school; $1
million in maintenance work at Riverside Middle School; $200,000
in maintenance at Lebanon; $1.3 million in maintenance projects
at Lincoln; $4.6 million in projects at Schurz including seven new
classrooms, new cafeteria and kitchen; and $3.9 million of work at
Webster including a new gym and interior remodeling.
Schurz School principal Andy Bare said the elementary schools
have been dealing with large numbers in kindergarten for the past
three years. The additional classrooms will help alleviate the large
number of students in classes and reduce the amount of times
principals have to move students from one school to another at
the start of the school year.
The private schools in the area provide alternatives to parents,
especially for a religious element to be included in each child's
education. It is unusual for a school district the size of Watertown
to have as many educational alternatives. According to recent
statistics, more than 1,500 students are involved in these kinds of
alternatives.
It is the goal of the Educational Foundation of Watertown, Inc., to
assist education and educators in both the public and private
schools. The Foundation solicits grant applications from local
teachers, both public and private, to help fund classroom
materials or projects. Through the years the Foundation has been
able to fund numerous projects, at least one in almost every
school. Community donations to the Foundation are used to fund
these grants. Your help would be greatly appreciated in numerous
classrooms by scores of students.
