Greetings Hawk Fans!
The Fall sports season is coming to an end. Congratulations to all of the MS/HS Volleyball Players, Football Players and Cheerleaders. The HS Football and Cheerleading teams are still competing. See the events schedule below for the dates, times and locations of upcoming Football and Cheerleading events.
Next Monday’s Football playoff game was moved to the UNI Dome due to the distance between W-G and St. Ansgar. Kick-off will be at 6:15. Buy your tickets here @ WG. Cost: $6.00. We will get a cut of the proceeds!
We will be taking a pep bus Monday. EVERYONE IS WELCOME!! Adults, kids, community members. Any elementary students riding the Pep Bus must have adult supervision. You must be signed up by 2:15 Friday so we know how many busses we will need. Call Pam in the MS/HS Office @ 515-438-2115 to sign up. Time: The Pep Bus will leave @ 3:15 SHARP. Cost: $5.00.
As we enter into the Winter Sports season, please be sure your student athlete has their physical and all of the sports forms completed. The physical can be downloaded from the web site. The other forms will be available at conferences or your student can pick them up from Kathy Walton or Kevin Thiele. Students will NOT be allowed to practice or compete until all forms are on file. Kathy will be available at conferences if you have questions about the forms.
Parent – Teacher conferences are next week from 3-8 PM on Tuesday and Thursday. Please make every effort to attend with your student. For those of you with ELL and ELP students, Mr. Evans will not be available on Tuesday but will be available to meet with you on Thursday.
********************************************************************************************
Donations for the gift card fund for the Chapman family are still being accepted. Send your donation to the HS office and we will get it to Pat Verrips who is coordinating this.
Thank you to everyone who has stepped up to sponsor the t-shirts. We hope to have the design completed and the shirts ordered soon.
I inverted the numbers on the school address last week. If you would like to send Mr. Chapman a note or card, the correct address is W-G High School at 306 West Third Street, Woodward, Iowa 50276.

Greetings Hawk Fans!
Congratulations to our W-G Knowledge Bowl teams! W-G had TWO teams make it through preliminaries and qualify for the State Competition to be held Tuesday, Oct. 26th at Merle Hay Mall.
We are hoping that the trouble with the phone system has been fixed. When calls are transferred to a teacher’s room, they should be able to retrieve the message. We apologize for any problems this has caused.
Watch the website for information regarding football playoffs. The pairings and host sites will be announced by the state just after midnight tonight. It is highly likely that W-G will be hosting a first round game next Wednesday, but confirmation of that as well as who the opponent will be is not known at this time.
********************************************************************************************
All of us in the Woodward-Granger family have been touched by the news of Scott Chapman’s diagnosis of non-Hodgkins lymphoma. The concern and support shown by students, parents, former students and staff has been wonderful. Thankfully, he is doing well and the prognosis is good.
Many of you have asked how you can help, what they need, etc. The staff at the MS/HS are providing a meal one night a week at this time. A collection is also being taken to purchase various gift cards that the Chapmans can use. Pat Verrips is organizing this. If you would like to donate to this fund, you are welcome to. Just send your donation to the school office and it will be added to the gift card fund.
The HS Student Council used some of their funds to purchase an air purifier for Mr. Chapman’s office and is going to be selling wrist bands for him as well.
Other fund raisers are in the works and ideas/help are welcomed.
I am hoping to get t-shirts made to sell. The idea is to encourage every student in the MS/HS building to wear it the day before Mr. Chapman goes in for his Chemo treatments to show him support. Because we would like to sell these to students at a low price so that every student will be able to get one, we are looking for businesses to sponsor the shirts. Any business or individual willing to donate $100 or more toward the production of the t-shirts will be listed as a sponsor on the back of the t-shirts. Any funds donated beyond the cost of the shirt production will be added to the “gift card donation fund” for the Chapmans.
If you would like to send Mr. Chapman a note or card, you can send it to the High School at 603 West Third Street, Woodward, Iowa 50276.

Greetings Hawk Fans!
We are currently having trouble with the phone system. It seems that when calls are transferred to a teacher’s room, they are unable to retrieve the message. We apologize for any problems this has caused. Until this is fixed, you may contact the teachers directly through e-mail. Each teacher’s e-mail address is listed on the web site ( www.woodward-granger.k12.ia.us ) under directory. The directory is listed on the District, High school and Middle School drop down menus.
You may also access your student’s teachers through the JMC Parent portal where you check your student’s grades. When you bring up your student’s schedule, there is a list of their teachers on the right side of the screen. You may check the box in front of the name of the teacher you want to e-mail. You may also check multiple names if you need to message several teachers the same information or question. Then, at the bottom of the teacher list, hit “e-mail” selected teachers.
You may also call the office and leave a message with the secretary.
Coach, George Ashman, will be the guest on channel 5’s Friday Night Blitz which starts at 10:30. Let’s Go Hawks! Get another strong victory for him to talk about tonight.
