Thank you to everyone who attended the first Bilingual Parent Advisory Committee (BPAC) of the 2023-24 school year! We had a great turnout, and it was wonderful to see our families getting to know each other and making connections. @WNPL@WarrenTownship#LifeintheW@ESzepesi
Last spring Dual Language families collected supplies for new teachers coming from Spain for the 23-24 SY. Hoping these care packages help Woodland feel like home for our new colleagues. As our student-created cards attest, D50 is excited to meet them! @Woodland50News
Our mural is complete! A BIG thank you to the Trin for helping us with the different languages and to our staff and students at Primary for their painting! #LifeintheW@WPrimary50@Woodland50News

Students at @ElemEast50@ElemWest50 created beautiful ofrendas as they learned about Día de los Muertos! An ofrenda is built to honor and remember loved ones who have passed away by sharing pictures, memorabilia and favorite things that remind you of your loved one. #LifeintheW
“There's been a lot of attention on learning loss, but framing student learning that way is a deficit perspective. If students see adults in their lives recognizing the ways that they have grown, it communicates to kids that they are resilient.”@NimahGobir
