OPEN OFFICE SESSIONS Once again this year I will be utilizing a collaborative opportunity for all members – students, staff, parents, guardians, and community members – of the Wood Memo- rial School Community. With this said, I be- lieve to be most effective with the develop- ment and growth of our students it is imper- ative that every stakeholder of Wood Memo- rial have an opportunity to collaborate and provide input in any area/aspect of inter- est involving our school (s) they may have. Thus, I will conduct monthly "Open Office" sessions, focused 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. The September "Open Office" session will be conducted on Tuesday, September 5, 2017. In keeping with the theme of collabora- tion and communication I want to invite Wood Memorial stakeholders to follow the happenings at the junior high and high school by joining us on twitter at WMTro- jans1.
