Estimada comunidad de Woodcrest,
¡Feliz 2025!
This week Woodcrest Spanish Immersion’s halls have been filled with laughter as students have been catching up with their friends and getting back into the groove of things.
We hope that you all had a wonderful winter break and that you were able to take some time to reflect on all the things that you and your student have accomplished. I am sure there is a lot to be grateful for – we are definitely grateful for all of you at Woodcrest!
This time of year is also a perfect time to have conversations with your student about goal setting. It’s a good time of year to come up with a plan for what you and your student would like the upcoming months to look like at school. We are looking forward to what’s ahead.
Be well and stay warm!
In Partnership,
Jaime Nymann

A Visit from Hermes
Last month, Sra. Foty's students at Woodcrest Spanish Immersion were able to meet Sunni and her therapy dog, Hermes. It was a wonderful experience for the students to be able to see what a great relationship they have with each other and to see how dogs can help people with disabilities.
