A huge thank you to our parents and community members for a tremendous fundraising effort! This was truly a team effort, with every class reaching its individual fundraising goal. Together, we raised $27,000, far exceeding our $20,000 goal. These funds will support teacher grants, recess equipment, enrichment programming, field trips, and community presentations. The Color Run, the culminating event of our fundraiser, was a huge success, with students, staff, and parents joining in the fun. Thank you to all the volunteers who made it possible and to the families who came out to cheer on our students.
Your generosity, time, and enthusiasm made this a wonderful celebration of our school community!
Thank you!

On Friday, October 30th, students are welcome to wear fall colors, comfortable clothes (such as pajamas or onesies), Woodward spirit wear, or Halloween costumes to school. Please note that students will remain in their chosen outfits throughout the day, as changing clothes during school hours is not permitted. All attire should allow for easy bathroom use and full participation in gym, lunch, recess, and specials.
For those choosing to wear Halloween costumes, please ensure they are not disruptive to student learning and do not include toy weapons (e.g., guns, knives, swords, etc.). We also ask that costumes avoid any scary or gory accessories, full masks, or face paint.
We understand that not all families celebrate Halloween, and we respect those preferences. Participation in costume-wearing is completely optional.

In PE, students are learning the fundamentals of foot dribbling through fun games and activities! They are practicing gentle touches with their feet to control a ball while moving, changing direction, and keeping their eyes up to watch where they are going. Students are also playing partner games that encourage teamwork, coordination, and spatial awareness. |
We have noticed an increase in personal items from home coming into our classroom, especially large squishes, toys and puzzle/ rubiks cubes. When these items go missing or break, it can be very upsetting for the students and families who purchased them. Searching for lost items also takes time away from learning, and these items can be distracting during class. Please help us by talking with your student about which items are best left at home. Anything brought from home is the student's responsibility. Students who require sensory tools to access their educational goals will be provided them from school. If you have any specific questions, please reach out to your child's classroom teacher. |
As a reminder, cell phones must be powered off and in students’ backpacks during the school day. As smartwatches have many of the same capabilities as phones, they should also be turned off and put in students' backpacks. Smartwatches may be worn if they are in school mode and access to texting and calling is disabled during school hours. These devices fall under the same guidelines as cell phones, and we ask that you help us enforce these rules by not texting or calling your children or answering their calls or messages during the day. Please contact the main office if you need to reach your child during the day. |
