Time sure does fly around here!

 

As we head into April, we are excited about spring arriving, and new activities starting.  Track & Field, baseball & softball begin at the end of the month.  We also have PreK/K registration for our newest students on April 3 @ 5:30 pm.

​

Superintendent Agreement Reminder

If your child attends Woodland School under a Superintendent Agreement, please be sure to get your paperwork to the Superintendent’s Office as soon as possible.

​

​Helpful Reminders

As our temperatures fluctuate and students are required to wait for their buses to pick them up outside their homes, a helpful tip for  families is to leave a bookbag at the end of the driveway indicating to the bus driver to be sure to stop and for your child.

​

​​School Nurse Memo

If your student will be absent due to illness please call the school to notify of your child’s absence. Your child must be fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medicine prior to returning to school.

​

There has been a great deal of illness the last couple of weeks, and we do encourage parents to keep children home while they are sick.  However, when your child is feeling better, it is very important to send them back to school.  Attendance is very important to student learning and achievement.  Please see the attached flyer.

​

​YEARBOOK NOTICE:

We have Woodland Yearbooks available for just $22.

​

School Safety

Safety of our Woodland students is our top priority.  We have seen a continued increase in dangerous driving practices within our drop off and pick up lines.  It is imperative that we, as a school community, work together to make sure that our students are picked up and dropped off at school safely.

 

For drop off:

• Arrive no earlier than 7:30 am. (Staff arrive at 7:30 am)

• Pull up slowly to the office doors to allow your child out of the car.  If you have young children, it is suggested that you exit the car with your child to ensure they walk safely to the door.

• If there is a vehicle in front of you, remain in the car line behind them until they begin moving.  Slowly drive out of the lot, not passing any parked cars.

 

For pick up:

• Arrive no earlier than 2:25 pm.

• Remain behind the first basketball hoop until a duty teacher waves you to the pick up door.

• Drive very slowly to the pick up door. 

• Duty teachers begin escorting students to vehicles at the same time bus students are loading buses.   It is important that no vehicles are moving out of the car line while students are being escorted to cars or loading the buses.

• When the buses exit the lot, the duty teacher will wave the car line to exit as well.  Please drive slowly through the lot.

• The duty teacher will have cars stop at the dismissal door to pick up remaining students.   Please do not pass any vehicles in the lot.

​

PICK UP CALLS/BUS CHANGES

We recognize that changes to schedules can happen unexpectedly, however, we do ask that calls and emails for changes to your child’s pick up/bus change happen before 2 pm.  Often, Mrs. Green is not available to check emails after that time. Thank you for your understanding.
