MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Dear Woodsdale Families,
As we come to the close of another incredible school year, I want to extend my heartfelt
thanks to all of our Woodsdale families. Thank you for your partnership, support, and
the many positive conversations we shared throughout the year. It has been a privilege
to work alongside you and an honor to be entrusted with the care and education of your
children each day.
I would also like to offer a special thank you to our PTO. Their dedication, generosity,
and countless volunteer hours helped make so many memorable experiences possible
for our students and staff this year. From family events and fundraisers to classroom
support and special activities, their contributions have made a lasting impact on our
school community.
Finally, I want to recognize our amazing Woodsdale staff. Every day, they bring passion,
patience, and commitment to their work. Through their efforts, our students have grown
academically, socially, and emotionally. Their dedication to helping every child succeed
is truly remarkable, and I am grateful for all they do.
Thank you for the wonderful year. I hope you and your family have a safe, relaxing, and
enjoyable summer. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the fall as we
continue to learn, grow, and SOAR together!
Melanie Savicke, Principal
MESSAGE FROM THE NURSE
End of year medicine pick up:
In Preparation for the closing of the Health Room/Nurse Office at the end of the school
year, we’re asking all parents and guardians of students with medication at
school—including EpiPens, inhalers, and daily prescription medications—to please
make arrangements for an adult to pick up these items on the last day of school,
June 18, 2026.
Any medication not picked up by an adult will be safely destroyed on June 19,
2026, in accordance with school health guidelines. These medications will not be
returned to or sent home with the student.
To schedule a pickup time please contact me at 781-982-2180 extension 4327 or email
me at debraambrose@abingtonps.org
Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us keep our students safe and healthy.

LOST AND FOUND
Over the course of the year, we have collected many lost and found items. Over the next
few weeks, these items will be available for families to look through during school
events where parents and caregivers are in attendance. Please be sure to check the
lost and found when it is available — any unclaimed items remaining after June 18th will
be donated.
DIMISSAL CHANGES
Just a reminder: if your child’s dismissal plan changes once the school day has begun,
please contact the main office directly. Teachers are not always able to check email
during the day, and this can lead to miscommunication. Thank you for your cooperation
and support in following this policy.
