Abracadabra…today there was a Magic Show at Woodlawn to celebrate students who had positive behavior for a time frame of February and March! A huge shout out to Magic by Nelson for keeping our students entertained and in awe!

Woodlawn families showed up BIG TIME for our Heartland Food Bank cereal drive! Today our Leadership Ambassadors went around to collect the cereal and a few went with Mr. Wright and Mrs. Gilbert to the Heartland Food Bank to deliver the cereal. We are pleased to announce that our Eagles collected 603 boxes of cereal with Miss Hargrove’s class being our top class! Way to give back Woodlawn families.

Tonight was our SOCK HOP Daddy Daughter Dance! Our cafeteria was transformed into a 50s juke joint and our Woodlawn ladies were treated to a night out with a special guy in their life. They danced the night away to 50s tunes with a little bit of popular requests, ya know like Golden, mixed in! Girls got 50s themed tattoos while dads had a chance to “record a note” for their girls all in the midst of enjoying a pizza meal. Shout out to our 4th grade team and other staff for planning this special evening for our eagles!

Some of our 3rd grade students read the novel Lemonade War! To celebrate finishing the book…students were split into teams in which they had to develop a marketing strategy, sales pitch, and try to sell their lemonade. The winning team gets to select the charity all the money goes to. We determined that we have quite the growing entrepreneurs at Woodlawn. Our Lemonade Wars raised over $700 today!

This week on Tuesday, Mrs. McHargue, one of our amazing 5th grade teachers, welcomed the South Florida State College pre-service teachers to her classroom to model a 5E science lesson with hands on explore activities around electricity! Way to go, Mrs. McHargue! Thanks for pouring into our future educators.
