History

The Washington Territory Legislature of 1885-86 passed a bill to build the Washington School for Defective Youth. On February 3, 1886, Governor Watson C. Squire, the eleventh territorial governor, signed the bill into law.[2]

The school was split to form the State School for the Blind and the State School for the Deaf in 1913.

Residency

WSD is also a residential school. It has cottages where students reside throughout the week. Students arrive on Sundays and depart on Fridays. Cottages are for students who live far enough not to be able to travel by bus every day to school. There are cottages for male and female students: Preschool, Elementary, Middle School, and High School.

WSD's residential programs offers extracurricular activities, peer interaction, student growth and development, achievement, and more.[3]
