Woodburn Families, 

Thank you for a great week. Our students are so excited to be back with their teachers and peers. This is because of all you do to to promote a love of learning at home and a result of the warm and welcoming classroom communities our teachers have established. Our students feel safe to learn and grow and we can't be stopped! 

We hope you might consider joining our staff and family basketball team!  The big game is on February 16th and no skills are needed.  The students love seeing us on the court and it is such a fun night.  More information can be found below. 

Together We Grow,

Katy & Kelley
