We are Woods, and we are fortunate to have and have had the most dynamic, passionate and intelligent people growing and shaping our school. While there is no doubt that our people make the Woods education the experience it is, they cannot do it on our regular funding alone. So this week, we ask all school families join together and support our Annual Fund in an effort to bridge the funding gap. Together, we can do it. Together, we are Woods.

Please fill out the Donation/Pledge form that was sent to your home, or donate online HERE. You can read more about your Annual Fund donations at work HERE. Thanks so much!
