This handbook includes helpful information, policies, and procedures about our school. It has been updated to reflect the many changes we have implemented due to COVID-19. It also includes our behavioral expectations for students, which are designed to keep all members of our school community safe and engaged, as well as our core values. At Wood End, our students are responsible, respectful, honest, engaged and safe. We will partner with all our families to ensure a culture of respect, safety, and compassion. It is important that all students feel safe to learn and grow as individuals both academically and socially. The policies and procedures, as outlined in this handbook, are in place to make your elementary school experience a successful one. I look forward to welcoming our students and families in September to begin a new and exciting school year. Thank you in advance for your help in keeping our school a safe and nurturing community for students, families, and staff.
