Hello WRJH Families!
I hope everyone is enjoying the unseasonably warm weather this week! I want to share that we are back in full swing and the students and staff are working hard every day to maximize the learning experience for all our students. The next few months will be very busy and I wanted to let everyone know what we will be working on. We are starting to work on:
Preparing for the upcoming Ohio State Tests
Developing our schedule for next year and increasing our offerings for students
Evaluating our data to look for areas of improvement
Developing our new Mission, Vision, and Core Values for WRJH going forward
We have a lot of work, but I look forward to it. We will be reaching out for some community feedback and working to make sure that you have a voice in the direction we are heading.

Shout out from Woodard
Greetings WRJH Family!
My hopes are that you all experience peace, happiness, joy, and love all of
2024!!! We are so excited for what this year will bring...
Firstly, I have been rattling my brain on different ways I can support you all more. One way that I
came up with is through my new office hours! I will try to have these every Friday. It will be
virtual and you can access this through the link provided below. Please send me an email at
ebony.woodard@reyn.org to let me know which time you would like to meet on Friday and I will
send you a response letting you know if that slot is still available or not. You can come for any
concerns, comments, or suggestions you may have. I will do my best to be available during
these times, however, please know that as an admin I can always be pulled away for meetings
or other tasks that need to be handled in the building.
Lastly, I want to say that we are celebrating Black History Month here at WRJH. We have some
amazing projects that the students will be working on in their classrooms. The cultural
committee is working hard to make this a great success!! We also have a program that we will
be doing toward the end of the month. We are so ecstatic for our students to learn more about
important African Americans in history that made a huge difference and helped to shape the
world today!
Thank you for all that you do each day to contribute to the education and success of your
students! We truly appreciate each and every one of you!

WRJH TUTORING - IN PERSON
FREE ONLINE TUTORING FOR ALL RCS STUDENTS
PAPER- 24/7 Tutoring Services
PAPER is a secure, online tutoring service that provides students with unlimited, 24/7 academic support. Whether they’re stuck on homework, studying for a test, or need someone to read and make suggestions to their essays, there will always be experts available online to assist students in over 200 subjects and more than four languages.
PAPER tutors have been specially trained to conduct expert, academic support in a secure, chat-based platform. With a commitment to helping students learn, they’ll never give students answers, but rather interact with them in an encouraging tone to lead them forward.
This is a free service that we’re providing, so students are encouraged to use it as much as they need, whenever they need. Our teachers also have accounts and will be able to review all student activity to see what they’re working on and provide more targeted instruction as needed.
If you’d like to learn more about PAPER you can sign up for a PAPER hosted Parent Info Session, available in both English and Spanish. Or if you’d like to speak to a member of the PAPER team directly, you can reach them at parents@PAPER.co.
To see PAPER and the help it offers firsthand, we encourage you to login with your child(ren). Students will access PAPER on the student portal and use their CLEVER login to access PAPER.
We’re thrilled to offer our students the unlimited, 24/7 support that PAPER provides and we can’t wait to see what we’re able to accomplish together.
