A collection of lost items has been found and is waiting to be claimed! Please take a moment to look at the pictures. Do any of these look familiar?

If any of these items belong to your child, they can stop by the school cafeteria to claim them. We want to reunite these items with their owners!

Remember to put your child's first and last name on all items, as it helps us get them back to their owner.

Thanks for your help!

Monday morning we had a chance to kick off our Win Win Buddies, our peer mentoring program at Woodlawn. Mentors were trained today and prepared for their impact they will have on our youngest eagles. While impacting the future generation of Eagles, they in turn develop amazing leadership skills that will last them throughout their lives. It truly is a Win-Win! #TheWoodlawnWay #TheBestisYettoCome #70YearsStrong
