Woodburn Families, 

We had an incredible time last Friday at our annual family and staff basketball game. Thank you to the PTA for partnering with us to plan this event. We loved playing ball and seeing our Wildcats in the stands cheering us on. We also also have to give a huge shout out to Falls Church High School for sending over some students and of course THE JAGUAR to hang out with our Wildcats during the pep rally.

Next Friday is our annual Raise a Reader event. Every class will have a guest reader and each student will get to bring home a new book. This is one of our favorite events and we hope you'll be able to join your student for the reading. 

Together We Grow,

Katy & Kelley
