Many of you may have heard that Laurel Woods is turning 40
this year. And what an amazing transformation the school has had over the
course of these years. From originally being named Whiskey Bottom Road
Elementary School to the name change in the 90’s to Laurel Woods. While the neighborhood
has changed and continues to change, showing the deep diversity of Howard
County, Laurel Woods has academically improved with each given year. Yes, Laurel Woods continues to evolve into a
first-rate elementary school with first-rate administrators, teachers, academic programs and
of course, students.
The PTA is sponsoring a number of events to coincide with
this anniversary and we need your help. Committees are forming and will form
for celebratory events, programs and activities. If you are interested in
helping, please contact us at lwespta@gmail.com.
We would also like to hear your thoughts and/or ideas on
Laurel Woods turning the big 4-0! Are you a parent who attended Laurel Woods
or former teacher? Have you had children to transition from Laurel Woods to
middle school or still have children attending? If so, we want to hear your
most fond memories of the school. Also, if you have any ideas on how we can
celebrate the school, feel free to leave those thoughts as well. Please leave your comments.
Cheers to Laurel Woods
for
40 years of Academic Excellence in bridging the past to our future!
