A Peek at Our Week
Thank you to all who supported our butter braid fundraiser. They are always a big hit each year. Congratulations to Wyatt S. who was our top seller. The money earned goes into our activity fund which supports school events and classroom activities.
Hey, I showed the Woodbury Way! Congratulations to Roman W. & Greyson K. who were drawn this week for our mystery reward. They will both share the load in working in the front office for a day! You may even see them answering the phone!
Wear BLUE on Monday, for World Kindness Day!
Our Veterans ceremony was so special this week, especially having the SHS band back with us to play. We have not had them over since 2020. It was an honor and a privilege to host our local and family veterans and the students had great questions! Students shared family that they have in the military and others wanted to know when the military was formed and even when the pentagon was built. We talked about how to honor and show respect to our veterans through a salute, taking off our hats, a hand shake and joining in a moment of silence
A preview of our beloved veterans. ❤️ We typically add to this slideshow each year so
some of the information and student names are dated.

Hey, I showed the WOODBURY WAY! Gemma earned librarian for the day and Anna's name was drawn for lunch with a friend and principal. We love all the great choices and behaviors our students are demonstrating each week. Not only that, but we continue to keep growing our "plant brains" and practicing growth mindset. November's core value is responsibility. Keep it up!
