We are excited to be back in the office at Woodland Hills to prepare for the upcoming school year. Here are a few items to take note of as you prepare for the coming school year.
STUDENT CLASS ASSIGNMENTS
We are sure many of you have noticed student class assignments starting to pop up in Powerschool. If your student is not assigned to a class yet in PowerSchool please don’t worry–it just means that we are putting the final touches on our classes. Once placements are complete we will send an email to all parents with their assignments.
NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION
If you have new neighbors let them know they can register online at this link. Registration Please tell them they don’t have to wait until August 14th to bring in their birth certificates, immunizations, and proof of residency. Just have them call the school at 208-552-4850 ahead of time to set up a time to stop by.
BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT
Back to School Night is on August 20th from 6:00-7:30 pm. It is Open House style so you can come anytime you like during that hour to meet the teachers. You are welcome to bring your school supplies that night so you don’t have to worry about heavy backpacks on the first day of school. We would love it if new parents would stop by the office that night or some time during the first couple of weeks of school and we will help you get set up in PowerSchool.
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
The first day of school is August 26th. The first bell rings at 7:50 and we dismiss at 2:25. The morning kindergarten releases at 10:47 and the afternoon class starts at 11:33. There is no early release the first week of school but from then on we release at 12:59 on Wednesdays. On early release days the morning Kindergarten will release at 10:07 and the pm classes will start at 10:47. Please remember to use the drop off/pick up loop when dropping students off or picking them up. We appreciate your help in keeping our walking students safe by using the correct drop off/pick up procedures.
TRANSPORTATION
Buses are not available for Kindergarten students the first week of school but parents can meet with our transportation representatives between the kindergarten sessions (10:47-11:33) anytime that first week to get your kindergartener signed up for the bus. Otherwise, use this link to look up bus stop locations and times for your student. Student School and Bus Lookup We would appreciate Kindergarten parents using the drop off/pick up loop unless you plan to walk into the building.
MEDICATION
If your student requires medication at school you must fill out the appropriate forms and have them signed by your doctor before we can accept the medication in the office. You can find the forms at the following link. Policy 3510
GYM TIMES
We will start scheduling gym times the day after Labor Day. Please note that it is on a first come first served basis and that payment is due at the time of scheduling. In order to give an opportunity to use the gym to as many teams as possible, we will only schedule one one hour slot per team.
We are excited for another wonderful year at Woodland Hills. We look forward to seeing our returning students and getting to know our new students. We hope you enjoy your last few days of summer!
