Why Auburn-Washburn? What Principals Value Here
Leadership autonomy. Auburn-Washburn operates with a decentralized leadership model that places principals at the center of building-level decision-making. Principals are empowered to lead their schools in ways that reflect their students, staff, and communities, while district leaders serve as collaborative partners—offering support, perspective, and guidance when needed. Your expertise matters here, and your leadership is trusted.
A collaborative leadership community. Principals participate in regular leadership meetings that provide dedicated time to connect with colleagues, celebrate successes, discuss challenges, and work together on district-wide initiatives. You’ll become a part of a leadership community that shares ideas, supports one another, and understands the realities of the role.
A district with a clear vision and major long-term investments. Auburn-Washburn’s work is guided by a five-year strategic plan shaped by feedback from thousands of community members. This plan led to a unanimous Board of Education decision to pursue a $145 million bond—approved by voters in 2022—to invest in the district’s future. Construction and renovation began in 2023 and will ultimately touch every school, supporting early learning, innovative instructional spaces, and expanded career and technical opportunities. Principals who join Auburn-Washburn step into a district that is aligned around a shared vision and actively investing in its people and facilities.

Our Culture
Corporate culture is essential to allow the organization to differentiate itself. In terms of image on the one hand, it has strengths both internally and externally to consumers. It is indeed a source of cohesion and motivation of employees and it limits conflicts. With customers, it conveys a positive image and can develop a feeling of closeness to the company or even become a criterion of choice.
