Reminder from the Nurse
As the weather is getting nicer, I would like to remind families of the dress code as outlined by the Elementary Handbook rmd.me/c8htJHgC8UH, "Clothing that is too revealing is inappropriate in a school setting. Students will use good judgment regarding appropriate attire in school." This would include midriff (half) shirts, crop tops and short skirts as well as inappropriate footwear such as open toe sandals, flip flops or slides. Administrators will determine what constitutes appropriate attire and may require a student to change or cover up as necessary and appropriate
Under "School Health Info" there is a link to guidelines to determine when a child should stay home called "Too sick for school". This is an outline for when a child should stay home. As always, if your child has symptoms of Covid-19 we ask that you test them prior to sending to school. If you need to report positive case to the school nurse you can email me at Hcarlson@woburnps.com.
After the Bell Session 6
After the Bell Session 6 will run from Monday, May 15 through Friday, June 16.

Goodyear Bus Update May 2023
Please complete the Goodyear Bus Form to receive an invitation for the WPS BusRight app.
The last update to the bus schedule was at the beginning of January. Families will be notified of any changes to the schedule. Additionally, families may request a change by submitting a Bus Stop Request Form.
All students must follow guidelines for safety and appropriate behavior on the school bus. This information is available in the Woburn Public Schools Elementary Handbook. Failure to follow the guidelines may result in consequences up to and including suspension from riding the bus.
We understand that dismissal schedules may need to change at times. Please communicate any changes in dismissal to the school office by 2:00pm each day to ensure that the message is shared with staff prior to dismissal.

Traffic Update
- The side parking lot next to the gym is closed at 8:00am and 2:30pm for arrival and dismissal. We will be blocking access to the lot during these times. Please continue to use the drop off lane or park on the side streets if needed.
- With additional staff now at the Goodyear, we ask that families park on the side streets in the morning so staff will have access to the limited number of parking spaces available around the school.
- The drop off lane has been moving well when students exit the vehicle quickly along the sidewalk and vehicles keep moving.
- Vehicles should avoid passing on the left in the drop off lane. There have been instances of vehicle damage due to unsafe driving in the past.
