Kindergarten Information Night 2025:

Date: Tuesday, May 13, 2025

Time: 5:30-6:30 p.m.

Location: Woodbridge Farms Elementary - School Library

To make the transition to school as smooth as possible, Elk Island Public Schools has put together a toolkit for families. The kit includes information about registration, important dates, programming options, what to expect, eligibility, finding your designated school, transportation and more.

Additional information about Woodbridge Farms’ kindergarten program is available on the school website.

We’re so grateful for the amazing support from our school community—thank you!

To show our appreciation, we’re hosting a Volunteer Appreciation Event on Wednesday, May 7 at 1:30 p.m. in the main foyer and music room. Join us for refreshments and a short program featuring some student presentations.

Join us on May 5 as we recognize and thank our school bus operators for keeping the safety of our students their first priority. We encourage you, and your children, to take a moment to say thanks to our bus operators—who go above and beyond to provide safe and timely transportation to our students.

On behalf of Woodbridge Farms Elementary THANK YOU to all of our school bus operators for a job well done.
