April 7th, 2020 - Assistant Principal's Week


This is Assistant Principal's Week. 

After a big win at the Senior Lock-In

I love these guys. I'm sure none of them knew what they were getting into when they came on board, and that was before a pandemic. 
  • Mr. Wood has done an amazing job working with the science/engineering groups, teaming with Ms. Anderson to support the Class of 2021, and improving facilities/safety.
  • Dr. Borrego is one of the best listeners in the building. He's built community within the ELAR department, invested in improving EL support, and helped shepherd our sophomores with Ms. Mervine. His birthday was this past weekend, too. 
  • Other than blowing a call at first base in a Wildcat scrimmage (j/k), Mr. Meaker has been an incredible asset to campus. He's jumped in to look after our seniors, oversee technology, improve our 504 process, and advocate for our Social Studies department.  
And they all do so much more. They're truly great men, and we're fortunate to have them at Woodrow. I am better because of them and hope you all feel the same way. Make sure to show them some virtual love and appreciation this week.

March 24th, 2020 - Day One, In the Books

Image
Whew. Yesterday was a tough day. Out of District emails got bounced back. The phone rang off the hook. Food ran out way too early (This will be fixed for Thursday). Between these tasks, I jumped in and out of Skype, Zoom, and Hangouts before heading to home to help my sons with their online modules at about 6:00 PM. We are very fortunate to both be working right now, but juggling being a teacher, employee, and parent at the same time will take some getting used to. I'm sure your day was just as challenging, if not harder. Thank you for persevering. Seeing our staff come together and the agency of students were the highlights of the day. Continue to visit  WWHS COVID-19 Response Virtual Classroom Reference Sheet (Community-Facing)  for Google Classroom and Remind codes . Students came steadily for Chromebooks and emailed for support. If students still need a computer, please bring them to the horseshoe Thursday between 10 and 1 PM. If you need tech support, please call  972
