Something BIG is coming - One School, One Book! What will our title be? Our school is about to take part in a special, school-wide shared reading event. Every family will receive a copy of the same book and will be asked to read it together at home over the next few weeks.


Today, Wood River Elementary students celebrated reaching their reading goals. They were entertained by magician, Adam White. He also provided a lot of laughter!😊
