Student Handbook

Each year, we require Rush families to review the rules and policies at Ben Rush Elementary School and the rights and responsiblities of a Lake Washington School District student.

The purpose of this handbook is to communicate to families our expectations for the behavior of every student at Rush. Bullying, harassment and/or intimidation, in any form, are not tolerated here. We want everyone to be successful, have a safe and fun school year, and enjoy learning. There are three behaviors students are expected to follow:

     BE SAFE

     BE RESPECTFUL

     BE RESPONSIBLE

Everyone in the Rush Community is committed to help achieve these expectations and make sure that Rush Elementary is a place where every student is challenged to reach personal success in a safe, fun, and inclusive environment. We believe that each of our students are special and deserve to be accepted where they are and inspired to learn and grow.
