Good afternoon, Woodson Wave Families, this is Liz Berry with some updates for the week.  Congratulations to our Staff Members of the Week Mrs. Corey Bivens, Mrs. Jen Carey, and Ms. Anita HarrisMrs. Bivens always puts forth her best effort as she works to meet the needs of students across all grade levels.  She is always on time, smiling, and initiating fun games and activities to reinforce math learning.  Mrs. Carey is a wonderful teacher!  She identifies the strengths of each of her students and builds her lessons to target those strengths as she helps students grow in other areas. Ms. Harris is a real team player at WES.  She has single-handedly monitored a grade level in the cafeteria throughout the year.  In addition, she has opened her tiny office to a colleague who needed a place to call home.  The intervention provided by Ms. Harris is targeted and specific, meeting the needs of students across multiple grade levels.  Great job, Ms. Harris!

Congratulations to our Students of the Week.  Bella Marsh in Pre-K3 is always ready to help her friends in any situation.  She loves learning and is always ready for the school day.  Priest Love Cain in 2nd grade is always someone you can count on in the classroom.  He participates in the class and engaged in learning.  Nash Jones in 3rd grade is always respectful to his teachers and his classmates and is a great friend to others.  Victoria Hyland in 4th grade always has a positive attitude towards learning.  She embraces challenges and has a passion for learning.  Way to go!!!
