Greetings Bishop Woods Families,

I hope this message finds you well. This week we will have a full week of school, and celebrate St. Patrick's Day! We invite all students and staff to wear green on Wednesday, March 17th in honor all of our Irish Bishop Woods family members.

Please see the posters below of students in grades 5-8 that made honor roll for 2nd marking period! As a reminder, 3rd marking period ends on Thursday, April 1st. Please be sure to check PowerSchool for your child's grades, and to reach out to your child's teachers if you have any questions or concerns.

As always, please do not hesitate to reach out if you need anything.

Have a great week ahead!

Spring is coming. If your child has asthma, make sure there is an asthma action plan from doctor's office and inhaler in school, as we are unable to use a nebulizer at this time. If need asthma form, please contact Nurse Gloria.

If you participated in our pie & cookie dough fundraiser, this is a reminder that all orders must be picked up on Wednesday, March 24th between 9:30 - 12:30. We have no room to store these orders, so you must swing by Bishop Woods at this time.

Students in Mrs. Laughlin’s first grade class and Miss Lehner’s third grade class created cards with messages of hope and thanks for essential workers in our area. When dropping the cards off, the nurses and guard at the Covid testing site were very moved by the thoughtfulness of our students and teachers and truly appreciated the kind gesture and thanks for their service. Thank you 1st and 3rd graders for this thoughtful gesture! #kindnesscounts

• Remember to charge your child's device EVERY evening and to send it to school the next day.
• Do not forget to pack your child a water bottle and supplies.
• We will be going outside daily (especially now that the snow has melted), so please be sure to dress your child appropriately.
• Please remember to pre-screen your child before sending him/her to school. If you need to give your child any kind of medicine due to how they are feeling in the morning, you must keep them home.
• Your child can log in as a remote learner if they are feeling well enough to join class, and will be marked remote present for the day.
• Please be sure to complete the Bishop Woods Student Absence Form if your child is not in school so that we have record of the reason, and whether or not our school nurse needs to reach out: https://forms.gle/6DZy4s7nWkxMHqc86
