Hello Woods Families,

Week 15 was cold, snowy, and brought our first late start of the year! ❄️⏰ Mr. Wegrzyn and our students shined at the Winter Concert — such a wonderful showcase of all their hard work. Bravo to our staff and students! 🎶✨


Important Things to Know

🎁 Giving Tree Update
Thank you to everyone who grabbed a star from the Giving Tree — every single star has been taken! Your generosity means so much to our community.
Please remember: gifts are due back Monday, December 15th, wrapped with the numbered star attached.

🎀 Teacher Favorites
While our teachers never expect gifts, we know many families like to show appreciation during this season. To help make gift-giving a little easier, teachers have shared their “favorite things.” You can find the spreadsheet HERE.

🎭 School Play Sign-Up
Mrs. Trybula is once again directing our school play! Sign-up sheets were sent home with 3rd–8th grade students and must be returned no later than December 17th.
Rehearsals will run four days a week, and Mrs. Trybula will coordinate with Mr. Lofy so students may participate in both activities. Reach out with any questions!

🧤 Winter Wear Donation Thanks
A huge thank-you to all the families who donated outgrown winter gear. These items will be put to good use at school when a child needs something warm.
