Senior Lawn Sign Delivery
Last Saturday, 30 staff members delivered lawn signs to our seniors. While the year will not end the way any of us want, our seniors deserve recognition! They are a fantastic class. #WoodburyPride #WHSClassOf2020 #HerdForLife
Thank you to the Sundial Club and our maintenance staff for ordering and installing this sign in front of the high school.
Congratulations to our 2020 Prom Court

Art with Dr. Friedman
In art class we've been getting creative with a lot of alternative materials during our virtual learning experience. This project reinforces knowledge of color theory by identifying primary, secondary and tertiary colors through the creation of "Found Object Color Wheels". Students used whatever they had available to them in their environments, and submitted a photo in google classroom.
Science Experiments with Mr. Kosior
This week the sixth graders are learning about volcanoes. Would it even be science if they didn't make old school science-project-esque volcanoes with some kitchen Ingredients? They did an awesome job and below are pictures showing results.
Mrs. Luthke’s AVID 10 Class
As part of AVID Spirit Week, Mrs. Luthke's AVID 10 students participated in Fit Friday activities. We're all trying to keep moving during quarantine. Students were instructed to do at least 5 minutes of continuous exercise. Some students like India Byes, Kyla Page, Katie Boyle, Teddy Lockhart, and Jordan Smith (all pictured here) submitted Fipgrid videos of themselves doing various exercises. Some students also included their family members in the fitness fun.
PE and Health with Mr. Jarrett
Mr. Jarrett felt it was important to check up on our students’ mental health while trying to keep his assignment interesting and fun at the same time. He gave them an activity tic-tac-toe game where they can choose three activities to complete in a pattern to complete the game.
