The second semester is now scheduled to end on May 25. OPEN OFFICE SESSIONS Once again this year, I will be utilizing a collabora- tive opportunity for all mem- bers – students, staff, par- ents, guardians, and commu- nity members – of the Wood Memorial School Communi- ty. With this said, I believe to be most effective with the development and growth of our students it is imperative that every stakeholder of Wood Memorial have an op- portunity to collaborate and provide input in any area/ aspect of interest involving our school(s) they may have. Thus, I will conduct month- ly "Open Office" sessions, fo- cused on providing time for such collaboration to occur. I encourage you to come meet anytime to review items of interest you may have. You may schedule a meeting by calling 812-749 - 4757 and requesting a time. In keeping with the theme of collaboration and com- munication, I want to invite Wood Memorial stakehold- ers to follow the happenings at the junior high and high school by joining us on twit- ter at WMTrojans1.
