Woodland Intermediate is creating a large-scale art project with Artist Damon Lamar Reed, thanks to funding and support from the Woodland PTA 50. The students participated in conceptual sessions to help shape the inspiration for the mural design, and then helped to install the mosaic mural on the wall in their school.
The end product is meant to symbolize all of the many different people that make Intermediate a special place. How beautiful that everyone had a hand in designing the concept, AND creating the actual artwork. When you see yourself in the artwork, you know you belong.

Joe Wenner is Woodland's Bus Driver of the Year!
Thousands of Woodland students (and their parents) depend on our bus drivers for a safe ride to and from school. Mr. Joe was recognized by his fellow Transportation coworkers as someone who has gone above and beyond his duties as a driver, has an excellent safety score, and is always kind to others. He takes the time to get to know the students on his route, and greets their families with a friendly smile. Mr. Joe has a great attendance record, and he is a trusted mentor and leader for other drivers.
Congratulations Mr. Joe, and thank you for all you do in service to our learning community!

Parent Information Night, May 24
Woodland D50 has partnered with psychologist and educator Dr. Doug Bolton to host a presentation that will address the suggestions and concerns that were shared by parents and guardians in response to the ongoing student behavior issues at Woodland Middle School. Dr. Bolton will share the latest research on creating inclusive school communities that support student safety and healthy engagement along with guidelines for understanding and managing challenging behavior. We will also be sharing our vision for next steps in our ongoing work to address these concerns.
This event is open to all Woodland parents and guardians in any grade, not limited to Middle School.
Woodland Intermediate will be creating a large-scale art project with Artist Damon Lamar Reed, thanks to funding and support from the Woodland PTA 50. Today the students, staff, and several parent volunteers had the opportunity to meet Mr. Reed and begin the conceptual work of compiling words, pictures, symbols, and ideas that help tell the story of who we are as a school community. The students were ALL IN with great ideas. Several themes emerged around ideas of family, friendship, and belonging. Many students talked about how important it is to express yourself, and to be happy being YOU.
Stay tuned to Mr. Sheldon's newsletter for project updates! #LifeintheW

We are proud of these students for trying hard and giving it their best effort.
We are also proud of the students you see cheering in the photo. They stopped what they were doing during recess to encourage their classmates and cheer for the runners.
