Hi Neighbors
                                           We’re off to a great school year with
                                           the kids and teachers at Woodbridge
                                           Elementary. Our PenPal program last
                                           year was such a huge success we are
                                           kicking it off again this year with two
                                           new third grades and the special needs
                                           class.  It’s an easy and fun way to help
                                           kids practice writing and to make
                                           special friend connections. We will
                                           provide the blank notecards and
                                           envelopes plus we always add a
            surprise like Make a Face stickers and the kids are so excited to get
            their letters.
            There are many ways to volunteer, either in a classroom, or simply
            helping the teachers with projects from your home, like preparing
            classroom materials or homework packets.  Recently we met to cut
            fabric squares they use as whiteboard erasers, organized reading
            booklets, and cut ‘Woodchuck Bucks’ they use as good behavior
            rewards to spend in their school store. Thank you to all our volunteers
            and if you would like to get involved please contact us.
