Reminder: Please ensure your child comes to school each day with appropriate outdoor gear. We do go outside when temperatures are above 0°, so warm coats, hats, gloves, boots, snow pants, and similar items are important for your child’s comfort and safety.

If your family is missing any winter gear, please be sure to check our lost and found.

If you have any clothing or winter gear marked DWS please bring them back to the main office.

A Gentle Reminder:

• If your child arrives late to school, please stop by the office to sign them in.

• If you need to pick your child up early, please notify the office by 12:00 PM. The end of the day can be quite busy, and this helps us ensure the teacher is informed and can plan accordingly.

ILLNESS REMINDER

Students who have a fever, vomit, or have more than one diarrhea episode must wait 24 hours from the last time they vomit, have diarrhea, or start an antibiotic to return to school. A fever is considered anything higher than 100.0. The student cannot return to school until their temperature is below 100.0 for more than 24 hours without a fever reducing medication.

If your student is going to be absent from class, please call the office (218-828-8200) or email mainoffice@discoverywoods.com to report an absence.

Part of Discovery Woods School's strategic plan is to ensure we are living out our mission and vision. With that, we ask that you take a few minutes to give us some feedback on your experience at Discovery Woods School.
