Wynford Local Schools

The Wynford Elementary Spring Fling was a huge hit! 🎉 We had 215 of our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders dancing, laughing, and spending time with friends. 💃🕺 Students enjoyed pizza, chips, cookies, and a pop while making fun memories together! A big THANK YOU to our 4th grade team for planning such a fun and successful event! 💙 Click this link for all of the pictures! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17xGtGg13KIz3VPHVGFmxju2mbhPb19ug

Nine 5th grade girls have had the opportunity to participate in Ruling Our Experience ROX. They have learned about building confidence, being assertive, handling stress appropriately, and planning for their futures. Today our group was able to learn self defense! We learned about being aware of our surroundings, using our body language and voice to keep ourself safe, and physical self defense. This group of girls learned a lot this year and built a strong bond with one another.

Attention Wynford Elementary Parents Who Drop Off Students in the Morning: If your student typically enters the building through the South Entrance doors, you MUST park in a parking space in the Community Center parking lot and walk your student to the South Entrance. Parking along the curb to drop off students is not permitted.

Reminder to parents of 3rd - 5th graders staying after school for the dance today - they will be released to get picked up at 5:00pm OUT FRONT of the elementary building. This will be the only exit for pickup. We are excited for all the fun!

Attention Wynford Elementary Parents: Due to the Spring Fling Dance for students in grades 3–5 after school today, Friday, April 10, 2026, elementary students who are riding the bus home may arrive earlier than usual because of the high number of students attending the dance.

✨👑 Our First Graders Kick Off Their Cinderella Unit! 👑✨ What a magical day in first grade! We began our adventure with a fun “book tasting,” where students explored different versions of Cinderella. Then, creativity sparkled as everyone made their very own crowns fit for royalty! 👑 The excitement continued with a game of “Pin the Shoe on Cinderella,”. Later, we had a very special visit from a princess and her guest, who read the original Cinderella story and surprised everyone with chocolate-covered pretzel wands—such a sweet treat! ✨ To wrap up our enchanting day, students enjoyed dancing and a royal snack feast featuring Gus Gus Cheese, Carriage Wheels, Midnight Kisses, and Glass Slipper Juice. 🧀🍪💙 We can’t wait to continue our fairy tale journey!
