We had an absolute blast at Gurnee Days this weekend! Our super 70's "Woodland Rocks" float looked great thanks to all the helpers who pitched in to create props, and the @WMS Marching Band added music to the "Celebration!" (Kool & the Gang) #LifeintheW
Happening Now: Medication Drop-Off
Medication Drop-Off for ALL schools will be on Monday, Aug. 14 at Woodland Middle School from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. and 3 - 7 p.m.
Nurses and health assistants from each school are here to take medications, physicals, vaccine forms and discuss health needs with parents ahead of the "meet and greet" days. We wanted to make it a one-stop event for families with children in multiple schools.
Parents are strongly encouraged to drop off medication today if at all possible!
Look at these smiling faces-new staff at Woodland Primary ready for a great year! #LifeintheW @wPrimary50 @woodland50News

Setting up for New Staff Orientation. Tomorrow we will welcome new team members to our school district and we are so excited! The Woodland learning community is lucky to have you, and we look forward to your contributions to #LifeintheW
The Weekly District Newsletter is Back! Welcome letter from Dr. Machak, Back-to-School events and information, Gurnee Days, and more. https://www.smore.com/pg1u3
Yesterday, district and school administrators were surprised by a pop-up performance from some of our Woodland Middle School band members to kickoff a day of training and collaboration.
The students did a great job, and by the end of the performance we were clapping, tapping, dancing along - and energized for a full day of important work. If you want to see the WMS Marching Band in action, come see them at the Gurnee Days Parade on Aug. 13 🥁🎺🎷
Woo-hoo!!! It's August, and that means "Back-to-School" preparations are underway. If you are looking for information regarding the start of the 2023-2024 School Year, please visit the "Back-to-School-Headquarters" page on the district website.
You will find information about the first day of school, welcome letters from your school principal, upcoming events, and more! Skyward Family Access is set to open back up on Aug. 10 so that you can see your child's teacher (and schedule for WMS).
We will be updating this page as needed as we make our way toward the start of the school year. Stay tuned!
On Wednesday, Aug. 2, all four Woodland school offices will be closed from 12 p.m. – 4 p.m. so that our school administrators and office staff have the opportunity to participate in professional development. This training is also available to our district office colleagues, which may temporarily limit our availability to respond to questions and requests. We appreciate your patience and look forward to a great school year ahead!
Spotted: Woodland's four school principals planning for the return of staff and students in August!
Back to School communication will ramp back up this week. Keep an eye on your email or text messages for important information and updates as we make our way to the start of the 2023-2024 school year. #LifeintheW
