Congratulations
CLASS OF
The Massillon Washington High School Class of 2016. They started
walking the Washington High School halls in 2012, and it is already time for them to start a new journey. Whether
it was spending late nights studying for tests, performing in a concert or playing in a game, these seniors spent
many hours at Washington High School. As the principal, I had the pleasure of watching these students develop
into mature individuals who will now go to college, enter the workforce or join the military. I am certain that the
students of the Class of 2016 will succeed at anything they attempt. The teachers and administration have enjoyed watching you grow from freshman with the first day jitters to seniors who represent Massillon well. We will
continue to watch you as you start on your next journeys in life and cannot wait to see the great things you will
accomplish.
Once a Tiger, always a Tiger! Go Tigers!
-- Brad Warner, Washington High School Head Principal
