Dear Manor Woods Families, 

It has been a wonderful American Education Week for all! We welcomed so many visitors this week and we are so appreciative of all the parents/guardians who spent time with us throughout the week. Our students were super excited to have family members in the building and we hope everyone enjoyed seeing a “snapshot” of a typical day at Manor Woods. Thank you for helping us celebrate American Education Week and the importance of bringing together educators, parents, students and communities to unify in providing the best educational experience possible!

Parent Conferences will be held next week, and school will dismiss three hours early on Monday, November 25, and Tuesday, November 26 at 12:15 pm. Just a reminder, conferences on Monday are in-person and conferences on Tuesday and/or Wednesday are virtual. Our staff is excited for another opportunity to connect and share about your child’s progress during the first quarter as well as goals set for the second quarter. 

Next week, we will take a break from sending our newsletter. Our next Weekly Duck will be sent on December 6th. With Thanksgiving upon us, this is a great time to reflect on the many things for which we are grateful. We are grateful for all the wonderful people at Manor Woods Elementary School. We have amazing students, staff and families. We want to share our gratitude for your partnership and collaboration and we look forward to continuing our work together.

On behalf of the entire Manor Woods Staff, we wish you and your family a wonderful weekend and a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend!

Kelli Jenkins, Principal
Jennifer Zinn, Assistant Principal
