Peter Woodbury School News

Dear Parents, Our school is taking a proactive approach to planning for the potential of remote learning due to COVID-19. If you have students in both McKelvie and Peter Woodbury Schools you may receive this e-mail more than once. Would you please take the time to complete the survey for any of your students in grades first through sixth grade. We want to ensure we're equipped to temporarily switch to remote learning if we are instructed to close.  Please complete one survey form for EACH CHILD that attends grades 1-6 in the Bedford School District by Sunday, March 15. https://forms.gle/Bb1LaxdmyAC9aUoF9

Mrs. Ewing, our school nurse, found an age appropriate comic for students about the new coronavirus.

Mrs. Ferenc's annual partnership with the American Heart Association has begun. Click here for some important information.    Remember how much fun the Kids Heart Challenge was last year? And all the good it does for our students, both physically and emotionally? Well, we’re doing it again! More than 50% of kids in this country do not get the physical activity they need, and nearly 1 in 5 kids is obese. Together, we can change that. You did such a great job raising money to help save lives, we hope you’ll join us again this year. The Kids Heart Challenge will kick off soon — and you can get a jump on it by registering online and sending emails now. Here’s all you do: 1. Go to  www.heart.org/ kidsheartchallenge . 2. Search for our school and select it. 3. Choose Option 1– Yes! You participated last year. Once you’ve registered, download the FREE mobile app for  iPhone  or  Android  by searching for Kids Heart Challenge. See your Heart Heroes come to life, tak
