The Out of this Universe Classroom Award is awarded to selected classrooms that met the Imagine Learning usage benchmark for the school year. The Imagine Learning Shooting Star Student Award is for their commitment to learning this school year (20+ hours usage). Our ESOL department also hosted events during the school year to promote parent involvement and home-school partnerships.
    • Our school continued to partner with KIDS HOPE USA and North Metro Baptist Church to provide mentoring services to more than 20 of our students. This valuable partnership received positive feedback from students, parents, and teachers as many of the students have been with the same mentor for their entire elementary career here at Woodward Mill Elementary School.
