A small fire at Washington Elementary School was quickly doused Sunday evening. 

A resident reported seeing smoke from the campus, which covers parts of two blocks at the intersection of Bancroft Way and McKinley Avenue. Fire department crews found a small stack of newspapers that had been set on fire outside one of the school’s bungalows on the west side of the campus. The fire caused minimal damage.
