Together We Grow

 

Dear Woodburn Families, 

We were all smiles as we welcomed back a group of students this past Monday!  There was laughter, targeted English language instruction, technology lessons, and so much more.  

As we head into the long weekend we celebrate a successful first quarter.  We are so grateful for our amazing teachers and staff who have established strong classroom communities and environments for learning.  We also appreciate you, our families, for the support you provide at home.  It is a team effort and your efforts at home do not go unnoticed by us.  Thank you. 

We hope you enjoy the long weekend.  We look forward to starting 2nd quarter with our wildcats on Wednesday, November 4th!  

Warmly,  

Katy and Bridget

Parent Conferences
