Students participated in a hands on session where our they dove into the world of fire safety, guided by the brave firefighters from our community.

We will contact you shortly thereafter with further details.
Views from the Classroom
The students in Mrs. Saltmarsh's class filled their marble jar for following Woodland CARES! The chosen activity was eating snack outside, so that is just what they did. The children enjoyed their afternoon snack and the beautiful fresh air.
Mrs. Schindel's class was ready for the eclipse!
The second graders enjoyed a field trip to the Hitchcock Center for the Environment.

New COVID Guidelines
We recently received updated COVID guidelines. The main change that we wanted to share is that COVID is now treated as any other respiratory illness. Please remember that students are encouraged to stay home until they feel well enough to work/school and are fever free without fever reducing medications for 24 hours. A positive COVID test is no longer an automatic 5-day quarantine.
If you should have any questions around illness (including COVID) - please speak with our nurse.
