Once again, we will be scheduling Parent/Teacher Conferences online with PTCFast.com. On this site you will be able to schedule a conference for all of your children. If you do not have internet access, you can call the office (443-9739) and we will schedule the conference(s) for you, or answer any questions. ALL CONFERENCES WILL BE VIRTUAL. Once you sign up for a conference time, your child’s teacher will contact you to set up the virtual meeting. 

Click on www.woolwich.rsu1.org, then on the “Parent/Teacher Conference Schedule and Sign Up” link to schedule your children. 

- You will be directed to a screen with all the teachers listed. Click on your child(ren)’s teacher(s). If you have more than 1 child, select “...more than one student” on the next screen. - Fill in your child’s first and last name on the next screen and click “done” when finished. - Enter your contact information and click “submit.” 

- You will receive an email within the next few minutes, with a link that will take you to the sign up screen, where you can choose what conference time is best for you. 

- We encourage you to leave time between conferences, so that the schedule will not get bogged down. (3:15 - 3:30 and then 3:45 - 4:00, e.g.) 

- Since there are limited time slots available, we are limiting conferences to one per child. Conferences are 15 minutes for K-5 and 10 minutes for 6th, 7th & 8th. Please adhere to the time limit. Feel free to email your child’s teacher throughout the school year to stay up to date. You can find email addresses of staff on the school website. Parents of students in grades 6, 7 & 8 can check their student’s grades and attendance all year, through the Infinite Campus Portal. Please contact the office if you did not receive sign in information.

My son, Patrick

Thank you Veterans!

A turkey project has come home with your child this week- wrapped as a scroll. Have fun creating together and please send it back in when finished~


A bit of help that I need... please assist your child by making sure there are no toys or other distractions in their backpacks or pockets. We have had many instances of students "giving, trading, sharing, lending" items and we honestly don't have the time for those distractions in our day. I really need your help with this and I thank you in advance. 


We are at letter Tt with our Alphabet Bootcamp! Only a couple of more days until we have visited every letter in the alphabet. Then the REAL fun begins!!! Reading and Writing workshop arrive.

In math we are working with sorting, ten frames, teen numbers, recognizing teen numbers through movement, formation of numbers, addition and subtraction practice and continuing our calendar routines. Our routines at calendar time include; counting to the calendar number of the day, weather observations, tracking the number of days we have been in school and days of the week. 

We are learning about the Woolwich Way! The Woolwich Way is made up of 6 qualities that will help us to be the best we can be! (Courtesy- I can use good manners, Compassion-I can help others, Respect- I can treat others kindly, Honesty-I can tell the truth, Responsibility- I can take care of myself and my stuff, Quality- I can do my best even when things are hard)

Don't forget that pesky setting your clocks back this weekend!!! Yikes~
