We are working on a MONDAY Schedule Marmot Trip Students - Don’t forget there is a mandatory pre-trip meeting TODAY at 2nd lunch in Mrs. Schaber’s room, room 143. If you have signed up for and paid for the trip to Marmot that is happening on Tuesday, you MUST ATTEND THIS MEETING :) Good luck to our Junior Badminton team as they play their first game of the season tonight vs Broxton. The game will be taking place after school in the large gym. Happy Birthday to Mrs. Glegloff….well her birthday is tomorrow! If you see Mrs. Glegloff wish her an early birthday. Did you know she’s a former cheerleader? and a semi-pro golfer? There will be a very short senior badminton meeting in the DLR room at the first half of lunch to give out schedules and player contracts. With all things old being new again, whether it be retro jerseys on sports teams, the return of music on vinyl, or even the return of 90’s ‘mom’ jeans, we feel it is important to connect with you, our students on a more ’visceral’ level. After a contentious staff and school council meetings, I am proud to announce that for the 2022-2023 school year Woodhaven will be returning to its retro name, the Raiders. (I’ll let that sink in.) While the WolfPack embodies all of our values surrounding teamwork and inclusion, well, let’s just say I want to capitalize on the retro craze before the school misses the boat. After all, with the renovations we have a ‘new’ old school. Doesn’t it make sense to have a new ‘old’ logo? Further, we will changing the school’s colours from red and black to orange and powder blue: I feel that these colours truly embody the essence of the current retro craze sweeping through our community. While I understand that this change is a bit of a shock, and many will long for the old Wolfpack moniker, I feel with time you will truly come to love the old/new Raider name: like so many of you parents and grandparents did in the seventies and eighties. And on that note I would like to wish everyone a very happy April Fools Day. |
