On Saturday, April 26, 2008 four Wellwood students participated in the All-county Choral and Recorder Festival at Loch Raven High School. Denelle J., Jahan F., Antonio V., and Aicha C. represented Wellwood. The following students were the alternates: Graysen L., Joseph W., and Ashley R.. They have been practicing for this event since February.

1st grade will be going on a field trip to Goucher College to see the play Junie B. Jones on May 14th.

2nd graders are studying fables in reading and will be going on a field trip to Goucher College on May 29th to see a production of Aesop’s Fables.

5th grade is going on their Ecotrekkers field trip May 23rd.

The 3rd grade is working hard on our safe racer unit.  There are cars crashing and eggs smashing and much fun being had in all the 3rd grade rooms.  Oh yeah, and they're learning things too.

·        The online math book is up and running for the 2007-2008 school year.  A letter explaining the site should have been sent home.  Click here to get to the online book and look for your child's login and password inside the front cover of his or her planner.

·        Did you know that you can still order delicious items from our Claire's Gourmet fundraiser?  Orders can be shipped directly to your door or to loved ones far away.  If you order from Claire's Gourmet website and enter Wellwood's code (1698), your order will be credited to our fundraiser.  Be sure to tell those out-of-town relatives about the site too!
