A Dual Dynamic Celebration!

Friday, November 11, was a day of celebration at Wood Acres. Not only were United States Veterans and current servicemen honored, but the Fours through Eighth Graders also participated in Wood Acres’ second Science Carnival, It’s Elemental! Students were immersed in activities that demonstrated a variety of scientific principles.

 
While learning about and exploring the scientific principles, students also enjoyed spending time with friends.

 
Lots of laughs as well as encouragement could be seen and heard throughout campus. 

 
None of this outstanding day could have been possible without the help of all of the parent volunteers.    

 
The entire school Rallied ‘Round the Flag in the middle of the science carnival festivities where the Pledge of Allegiance was recited at 11:11 on the 11th day of the 11th month. The third graders dazzled us with their performance of America.    

 
Servicemen and Veterans were recognized and honored with a boisterous, “Thank You!” What a touching moment as Wood Acres students proudly joined their family members.
