A Message from Mrs. Martin, Principal
Hello Woodand Park Academy Families!
Oh, what a year it has been! It's time to celebrate the wonderful things we've accomplished this year and say goodbye for now. I thank each and every parent, student, and educator for your tenacity and dedication to Woodland Park and the education of our Eagles.
Next year looks promising! We are working toward putting in a new playground and adding new educators to our team! I look forward to leading our amazing gem of a school next school year and in the years to come! Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Martin
