  • Rockin' Readers Book Club Raises Money for Cancer

    The Rockin' Readers book club recently donated $600 to Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer. The students in the book club, hailing from six different metro Atlanta schools, raised the money after reading the book, "The Lemondade War." Book club founder and Woodward parent, Karen Sard, along with fellow Woodward parent, Laura Shir, encouraged the book club to have a lemonade stand after they read the book and donate all of the money to charity. Woodward Academy book club participants include Brooke Sard, Hayden Twiss, Molly Shir, Elle Roberts, Kelsi Patel, Caitlin Cochran, and Olivia Zintak.

  • Woodward North 6th Grader Moved by My House Visit

    Woodward North sixth grader Trinity F. was so moved by the school's December visit to My House that she told her parents she did not want anything for Christmas because there are so many children in need of help. Trinity insisted that her mother go back to My House with her to visit the children during winter break. While visiting My House, Trinity had the opportunity to learn more about each baby and child.

    Trinity was presented with the Character Award for Compassion at a recent Woodward North school assembly.

    Woodward North has a long relationship with My House. My House is a nonprofit organization that provides transitional housing to babies who are ready to leave the hospital but have no homes to return to. Every year the families of Woodward North provide My House with funds to cover a significant portion of My House's expenses as well as holiday gifts for each child. Last year, Woodward North families generously gave $5,067 in gift cards and cash to My House. Our sixth grade class travels to My House to deliver these gifts to the children.
