Welcome to the 2018-2019 school year.
This school year will bring many changes to Woodlan. My fifth year at Woodlan finds me in the new role of principal. I am extremely excited for the challenge and opportunity to help the students, families and staff of the Woodlan community be successful.
Academically, we have added AP US History as a course offering. We will continue to partner with Anthis Career Center and the ABC Construction Trades program to offer students opportunities to get certifications while still in high school. Our goal is to grow the number of opportunities students have to earn college credit and certifications while attending Woodlan Jr/Sr High School.
The facilities have once again been updated. The varsity gym was resurfaced with a new finish, an outbuilding was added near the stadium and the field has an artificial surface that can accommodate multiple activities throughout the year.
We will have many new faces walking the halls of Woodlan along with some familiar faces and I anticipate lasting friendship being made. As I think back to my first day a few years ago, I can’t help but remember how welcoming and friendly the school and community was and made me feel at home. I look forward to continuing the tradition of Woodlan being a welcoming place and also making Woodlan a place of excellence.
I am looking forward to a great school year.
