Happy Thanksgiving!
Dear families,
It’s hard to believe that it is almost the end of November and the end of the first trimester of the school year! Time sure passes quickly at school when you are busy having fun and learning.
During Thanksgiving week , we are reminded of the many things that we are thankful for at Woodfield Elementary. Our building is filled with children who are excited about learning and a
dedicated staff who work very hard to make learning meaningful and engaging. The staff at Woodfield is grateful for the opportunity to be with your children each day and to serve the community of Waterford. The staff wishes you all a relaxing, fun-filled long weekend.
Sincerely,
Jessica Grimm
Principal
School Climate Survey
We value your feedback and would greatly appreciate if you would complete our school climate survey. The survey will take 10-15 minutes to complete. We'd love to see 100% family participation on this survey as your feedback allows us to work to continually improve our practices. The survey will be open through December 1. Please click here for the survey. Thank you for your time and participation.
Sincerely,
Jessica Grimm
Principal
Attendance Matters
If your child will be out due to a medical appointment, please ask your physician for a doctor's note and turn that into the school office. Thank you!
DRESS FOR THE WEATHER
Winter Weather Gear/Recess
If the weather allows we will go outside daily for at least 20 minutes for recess at lunch as well as a second recess. As a reminder students should have a separate coat for going outside rather that just a sweatshirt they wear all day.
Snow gear:
Hats, Mittens/Gloves, Snow pants, Boots
Blacktop only:*
Hats, Mittens/Gloves, Boots/Sneakers
*Students will not be allowed to go onto the playground equipment unless they have snow pants and boots.
Please label all winter weather items so they can be returned if misplaced.
