"Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!"

Happy Thanksgiving to our WBSD Families!
The WBSD has a great safety system, Zonar, for our bus transportation system that can be a great tool to be used by parents.
- Watch a demo video for the new Zonar MyView app here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IPVdnZPnSs
- Download the Zonar MyView app in your device’s app store.
WBSD’s Code is: WOO9929 (This is letters “W” and “OO” not numbers)
- Login to your Parent Connect and find your child’s bus route information under the Transportation tab.
If you would like to use the additional feature, the Z-Pass, you may request one by scanning the QR code or filling out this document - https://tinyurl.com/ydkj6s2p

Third grade students from Erving and Wegienka recently visited the River Raisin National Battlefield Park in Monroe to learn more from the Wyandot native people. In third grade, students learn about Michigan Native Americans, so this field trip was a great opportunity for students to learn in a very hands-on way. Every year, the Wyandot people, some traveling from Oklahoma and Canada, come to the River Raisin Battlefield to teach our students about their culture.
Our students learned about the music, traditions, government, and family life of the indigenous people and explored how they used natural resources. They had hands-on experiences in a longhouse and wigwam, and they even got to make wampum belts in the newly created Wampum Room.
When students were asked to rate their experience from 1 to 5, many enthusiastically gave it a 10! The beautiful fall weather added to the experience, allowing them to participate in an Indian removal simulation, try using a lacrosse stick, and grind corn into cornmeal the traditional way. The River Raisin National Battlefield team really outdoes themselves each year, and this visit was no exception!
The Woodhaven-Brownstown School District is excited to invite you to participate in a special WBSD book study, where we will be reading and discussing The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt. This powerful book explores the impact of social media and other digital technologies on our children’s mental health and well-being, while providing guidance on what parents, schools, and communities can do about it. Our discussions will take place virtually for the first three meetings beginning in January with the last meeting in-person, offering participants the chance to learn from one another and gain valuable insights.
If you're interested in joining us, please complete the Book Study Interest Form, linked below.
