Thank you to our Woodland families for sharing your countries, cultures, talents, foods, and traditions with us at International Night! We were able to travel the world with a twirl around the Middle School cafeteria. Everyone belongs in #LifeintheW and this event helps us celebrate all of the wonderful people (and places) that makes our school district special.











Letters, Sounds, and Words! The Kindergarteners in Mrs. Garcia's class are on the right track when it comes to learning how to read and write. Great job Wildcats 💚
#LifeintheW











Who will be out running errands tonight? Help us STUFF THE BUS!
Woodland School Buses will be out in front of the following grocery stores tonight if you want to make a donation to the Holiday Food Drive:
Target (Gurnee)
Jewel (Gurnee)
Walmart (Gurnee)
Butera (Grayslake)
They will be there between the hours of 4 - 7 p.m. If you are out shopping somewhere else, or you happen to miss one of our buses out on the town, we will happily take your donations tomorrow at the district office.
Thank you! #LifeintheW

Did you know that Kindergarteners at Woodland Primary have the opportunity to learn how to ride a bike in P.E.?
Our kindergarteners are having so much fun learning to ride bikes by building balancing skills and zooming around the gym on two wheels. #LifeintheW

The Woodland Parent Mentor Program is so much more than classroom volunteers! The Parent Mentors have weekly training, enrichment and outreach opportunities where they are able to meet new people and learn new skills that they can take back to use with students in the classroom. Last week they had a special guest join them for their "Beyond the Classroom" work. Gurnee Mayor Tom Hood spent time with our mentors to help build the school to community connection. We love to see these partnerships in action.


Who grows our students' minds-they do! Best staff ever! #LifeintheW @wPrimary50 @woodland50news #AEW2023
