Word From The Woods
Bishop Woods Newsletter October 29, 2023
Hello Bishop Woods Family!
Good Evening Bishop Woods Families,
This is Ms. Crisci with your weekly updates. I hope everyone had a good weekend with family and friends.
We would like to thank all of the families who attended our first coffee and community get-together this past Thursday. Your ideas have been noted and will be taken into consideration. Family members who attended, please tell others about Coffee and Community, and ask them to attend our next meeting in November. We would also like to thank all those who donated to our Superhero Spirit Day. The children had a good time wearing their hero throughout the day.
Our monthly community meeting was a success also! Ms. Sirico and her crew, called families to invite them to the community meeting in order for them to surprise their child by awarding them their certificate for being chosen Student of the Month. The students were very surprised and had no idea their parents, guardians and caregivers were invited to hand them their award and to have their picture taken.

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.
