Word From The Woods
Bishop Woods Newsletter April 7, 2024
Good evening, Bishop Woods families!
I hope everyone had a great weekend with family and friends.
I want to take this time to thank all the families who attended our annual McEducator Night. It was wonderful to see all the smiling faces, the students' excitement when they received an award or won a raffle and more importantly, seeing the families mingling with staff and one another.
On Tuesday, April 9th we have another fun filled event. Come join us for our Title 1 Family Bingo Night from 5-7, in our cafeteria. Prizes, laughter and light refreshments will be served.
This is a reminder that the District’s Attendance Matters challenge started April 1st, and we have a challenge for you. Attend school every day with NO ABSENCES and NO TARDIES from April 1st thru the 30th, (this is only 15 days of school). This is a short month. We are off on Apr.10th, we have an early dismissal on Apr.12th and spring break from Apr. 15th-19th. With the month being so short, I know we can meet this challenge, because at Bishop Woods our motto is YES WE CAN and WE can do this. For all who meet this challenge will be rewarded with an extra recess, snacks and parents will be entered to win a $50 gift card. Below is the link to the flyers for both the attendance challenge and what we can do to help students get to school.

Surprise & Delight😉
Thank you for sending your children to school - even on half days! Every minute in school counts! And we had 85.5% of students present in school on the most recent half day, March 13th. This is a great number, but we need it to be higher! Please make sure to send your children to school, even on Early Dismissal Days. This Friday is another Early Dismissal and Surprise & Delight!
The students are often Surprised & Delighted by that they find on half days. 😜

Fair Haven School Based Health Clinic
Enroll Today!
Bishop Woods has a school based health clinic operated by the Fair Haven Community Health Care. It is located in the nurses' suite on the first floor of our school. The clinic can provide back to school physicals as well as acute care to those students who are enrolled. While the clinic does not replace your primary care provider, it is a convenient way for both students and parents to access care without delay, leading to less missed time from work and school.
