Happy New Year Woodbrook Families! We hope you all had a joyful and safe holiday season and are easily getting back into the swing of things! It's hard to believe that we are now heading into the last half of this school year?! Over the coming months, there will be lots of happenings, reminders, and deadlines for you to be aware of. We encourage you to check out and read through our monthly PTO newsletter, visit our PTO website, and follow us on Facebook to stay up to date.
We invite all Woodbrook parents to join us for our monthly PTO meeting. These meetings take place in the Woodbrook Media Center the first Tuesday of every month at 6:30 p.m. The meetings are typically short and a great way to stay informed and provide feedback. Our next meeting is happening TOMORROW night, Jan. 11th. Please click here to find out how to attend either in-person or listen in via Zoom.
Thank you to all the parents who have been helping supervise students during Walking Club each morning! With the new year, we have an IMMEDIATE NEED for 2 parent/guardian volunteers to help monitor students participating in Walking Club BOTHinside and outside.
