Dear Woodburn Families,

Welcome to the Woodburn Elementary School. We are a dedicated group of teachers and staff that are committed to creating a safe, positive learning environment for all students in our school. We strive to ensure students’ success with high academic expectations, student independence, and strong communication with families. We invite all families to participate whenever possible in school activities as we know you play a key role in your children’s academic and social success.

Our student handbook contains information about the day-to-day operation of our school. Please read through it and discuss the content with your child before signing. There is information here that pertains to students from kindergarten through fifth grade. When everyone follows these guidelines, we all benefit.

Information about our curriculum, events, and special programs will come to you through teacher newsletters and school bulletins. Good communication is a key characteristic of good schools. Please help us to keep in touch. Students need to bring home the flyers, and parents need to set time aside to read over them. If you have internet access and your email address is current in Skyward (our student data system), you will automatically receive our e-newsletter. Please notify us at the office if you prefer a paper copy.

We look forward to working with you and to making Woodburn a school that fosters academic excellence and builds strong character. We look forward to working with you to make this a very rewarding year. If you have any questions, please feel free to call or stop in.

Sincerely,

Aaron Parman, Principal

Claire Murray, Associate Principal
