Woodland Woodchucks Weekly Notice
Wednesday, January 31, 2023
Wow! We are entering the 4th week of Winter Kids activities here at Woodland School! It has been a whirlwind for sure, but so much fun for our students. I want to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Holmes and Ms. Tateishi for their time and effort put into the planning of Winter Kids activities. Also, a HUGE thank you goes out to our teachers and staff who continue to participate in all the activities, even on some of our cold weather days. You are what makes our school so incredibly special. Parents, thank you also for your support in all of the events, snack drive, and clothes drive that we have participated in. Without your help and support, our students would not have been able to be so successful.
As we end the month of January, I would like to give everyone a little notice on some upcoming events and special days that are just around the corner. First, we will celebrate Woodchuck Day on Thursday, February 2nd, in addition to our Winter Kids Winter Carnival Day. Please encourage your students to wear Woodland School colors of blue and white. We will wear Red on Friday, February 3rd, in support of Women’s Heart Health. And on Wednesday, Feb 8th, it will be the 100th day of School.
A note from the school nurse:
I hope everyone is staying healthy through these winter months. If you could continue to let us know when your child will be absent from school that is much appreciated. Also, if there are any health/medication updates throughout the school year please let me know so I can update this on your child’s health record.
