Students worked in the library, in their Learning seminars, or at their homes. Items could be knitted, crocheted, or completed on a loom. Teachers and our wonderful custodian, Ms. Young Sun Huh also participated.

The effort resulted in SOME.org receiving 242 handmade items, and the Woodson students earning 389.5

service-learning hours for their work.

Donations of round looms and yarn are being accepted in order for this project to continue.

Current 10th Grade Parents & Guardians - ACTION REQUIRED IN NAVIANCE

Each year, your child develops an Academic and Career Plan that supports their  growth. This plan helps your child plan for their future. 

Your child will work with teachers and school counselors to discover their personal strengths and interests. They will also create goals to help them achieve success, plan  for courses that meet high school graduation requirements, and prepare for life after  high school. The development of this plan starts in middle school. Students update it during high school as their goals evolve. 

This plan connects to the Fairfax County Public Schools’ Strategic Plan. It supports the  growth of Portrait of a Graduate attributes and is required by the Virginia Department of  Education. Each student’s parent or guardian must review this plan at the end of 8th  grade and again at the end of 10th grade. Then you can coach them to make decisions  about college and careers that match their personal strengths, interests, and goals.  There are many pathways to success! 

You or your child can log into Naviance Student at www.fcps.edu/Naviance, then review the following information together: 

  • Results of the strengths and career surveys
  • Personal, academic, and/or career goals
  • Resume
  • Draft course plans for high school

Once in your child’s account, click the “About Me” tab and scroll down to “Portfolio.”  Once you click on the Portfolio, you can view all the work that your child has completed.

Once you have reviewed your child’s plan, complete the verification form at  https://forms.gle/jifN6F3DE9kiNUuX7 . The completion of this form will serve as your signature. Please complete this form by Thursday, June 30, 2022.

For more information about your child’s plans, visit www.FCPS.edu and search  “Academic and Career Plan.” We encourage you to continue to use Naviance Student  with your child to explore college and career options.

If you have questions, please contact your student’s school counselor.


Underclass Students - Will You Be Returning to Woodson Next Year?

If you will not be attending Woodson HS this fall, please let Woodson Student Services know now. Please click here and fill out this form. This form was also mailed home with course requests for next year.

If your student intends to attend Woodson next year, there is no need to complete or return the form.

Student Services will make sure all transcripts and records are forwarded to your child’s new school so his/her file is complete.  If you have any questions, please contact Woodson registrar Casey Delaney at 703-503-4622 or cdelaney@fcps.edu.

WTW CAVS SPORTS UPDATES


Athletic Calendar

Check out all of these opportunities to enjoy the spring weather and cheer on our teams! Follow @Woodsonathletic on Twitter for current athletic updates and schedules.


Sports Highlights

Baseball

Woodson visited West Potomac last Tuesday, looking to solidify its seeding for the upcoming District Tournament. The winner would earn the right to host an opening round rematch.

Woodson jumped out to an early lead. Singles from Colin Jones and Jay Sorkin were followed by a triple from Andrew Perks and another hit from Dillon Brody.  A Wolverine error allowed Brody to make it 4-0.  The Cavs added two more runs in the second with consecutive hits from Colton Lennen, Sorkin, and Perks.  

West Potomac cut the lead in half in the bottom of the 2nd, then threatened again in the 3rd.  After two runners reached with one out, Coach McColley summoned Lars Greenlee from the bullpen. Greenlee snuffed out that rally, then protected Woodon’s lead into the 7th inning.  

After West Potomac closed to 6-5, Jones delivered an RBI triple to right field to add an insurance run in the top of the 5th. The Wolverines answered with a run in the bottom of the inning, but neither team could score in the 6th. Greenlee struck out a pinch hitter to open the bottom of the 7th then walked the next batter, before Ben Smallwood was brought in to close the game. Smallwood made quick work of things, needing only six pitches to get the last two outs.

Woodson’s 7-6 win meant that they would host a rematch on Friday to open the District Tournament.  Woodson started Smallwood, fresh off his selection as First Team All Patriot District. Smallwood delivered a dominant complete game shutout, striking out seven, walking none, and scattering four hits. 

Woodson opened the scoring in the 2nd when leadoff hitter Colin Jones lined a 2-RBI single to right with two outs.  The Cavs added a run in the 4th when Jones reached on an infield single and scored off three wild pitches.  In the 5th, Smallwood, Ian Santamauro, and Jay Sorkin had RBI singles to push Woodson’s lead to 6-0.  

Woodon’s combination of timely hitting, tight defense, and dominant pitching earned them a trip to Lake Braddock for the District Semifinals. The Bruins will be looking for revenge, after dropping both games to the Cavs during the regular season.  

Girls Lacrosse

On May 5th the Woodson girls JV and Varsity lacrosse teams finished their regular season away at West Potomac High School.  The JV Lady Cavaliers defeated the JV Lady Wolverines 13-6.  The Varsity Lady Cavaliers defeated the Varsity Wolverines 16-15 in a nail biter that came down to the final seconds. Woodson JV girls finished their regular season with a record of 7-2-1. Woodson Varsity girls finished their regular season with a record of 11-3.  

The Patriot District tournament started on Monday, May 9th.  Woodson girls kicked off at home hosting the Lake Braddock Bruins.  The Cavaliers easily handled the Bruins, defeating them 17-2 and moved on to the semi-finals.  Wednesday, May 11th the Lady Cavaliers were back on the field hosting a tough West Springfield Spartans team.  Woodson started off slow against the Spartans and had a tough time in the 1st half clearing the ball and stopping West Springfield's star scorer.  Woodson found their rhythm in the second half, dominating the draw, controlling the ball to clear, and consistently finding the back of the goal (Reese Cuviello 5 goals, Mia Zgangar 3 goals, Genna Cooke 3 goals, Mikaely Griffin 1 goal).  The Cavalier defense and goalie Bristol Sine also made several great defensive stops in the second half which allowed Woodson to quickly pull ahead of the Spartans by several goals.  The final score was 12-9 Woodson. 

On Friday the 13th, Woodson traveled to Robinson High School to face the Rams for the Patriot district title. Unfortunately, Woodson lost in sudden death overtime 13-12.  This week Woodson kicks off the 1st round of the Occoquan regional tournament Tuesday night at home against Lewis high school.

Boys Tennis

Woodson Boys Tennis went undefeated in the regular season and are District Champions for the second year in a row!

Singles and Doubles District playoffs continue this week for Vincent Truong, Ansh Pathapadu, Collin Ollis, and Khoi Huynh. The quarterfinal round is set to begin at 3:30 today, with the semifinals following around 4:30. Both matches will be at West Springfield. 

The team will compete in the Regional Playoffs starting this Thursday, May 19th. We will host Annandale in the opening round. 

Softball

The Woodson softball team opened the Patriot District playoffs Friday evening, with a last inning, come from behind victory at Lake Braddock, 6-4!

Down 4-1 entering the decisive 7th inning, the Cavaliers scored 5 runs. They loaded the bases on consecutive walks to Jaiden Petrella, leadoff hitter Sarah Banker, and Sydney Huffman. With the bases loaded, Elizabeth Schneider was hit by a pitch forcing in Petrella from 3rd base, making the score 4-2.  Cleanup hitter Sedona Adams was up next with the bases still loaded. Her 1-1 count, ground ball single, between the 3rd baseman and shortstop, allowed Banker and Huffman, sliding ahead of the throw home, to score. On the same play, a 2-base error by the Lake Braddock catcher, attempting to throw out the advancing Schneider at 3rd base, sailed the ball into left field, allowing both Schneider and Adams to score the 5th and 6th runs.

Woodson’s other run came in the 5th inning, with a single by Huffman, bringing in Veronica Udowitz.

Pitcher Claire Warden threw a complete game win for the Cavaliers, striking out 7, including the last batter of the game with 2 runners in scoring position. Her final line included 6 hits, 3 walks and 2 earned runs on 115 pitches.

Also, congratulations to junior Sarah Banker, named to first team All-District and second team selections sophomores Sedona Adams, Emma Fleming, and senior Zoe Johnson!

The District semi-final game will be at West Springfield on Tuesday evening.
