We did it! After some digging and determination, the Woodson staff found the time capsule buried by the first Critter class at Woodson 19 years ago? I will share more individual photos tomorrow!

More Fun Day!

It was a great decision to move Fun Day ahead to today. The weather couldn't have been better! It was a great day at Woodson K!☀️

Due to the forecasted rain for Friday, we have moved our Fun Day ahead to this Thursday, May 23. This is our annual event where the students can celebrate the year with their friends.

The weather looks great right now, so please send your child to school wearing sunscreen . You can also send sunscreen to school, and we can apply it throughout the day. If you do that, please label the bottle with your child's first and last name and put it in a plastic bag to avoid leaks.

Dress your child according to the weather. TENNIS SHOES ONLY PLEASE! Also, send a jacket or sweatshirt to wear in the morning. We will be outside from 9:00-1:00. We will be wearing our fun day t-shirts. We have these at school.

There is no school on Memorial Day, Monday, May 27.

Our last day of school is Wednesday, May 29 . Students will be dismissed at 12:00, so please make sure you have dismissal plans made and communicated with your child's teacher. Kids Korner will not be open after school that day.

You won't find another school team as dedicated, passionate and caring as this Woodson team. If your child has ever been a Woodson Critter, they were loved. ❤️
