REMINDER - The Blood Drive will be held TODAY at the baptist church from 12-5pm. Please consider making a blood donation to save a life and fund a scholarship!

The Woodlawn High School chapter of the National Honor Society is partnered with the American Red Cross to earn scholarships for our graduating seniors. Our scholarships are driven by the number of pints of blood collected at our drives held during the year. At the end of the 2024-2025 school year, we awarded three $500 scholarships to deserving seniors, and we hope to increase that amount this school year.

This morning, a service technician from Ameren was called to WGS to investigate reports of unusual odors in a couple of areas of the building. Upon inspection, the Ameren technician discovered two small gas leaks located in the boiler room. Additional gas was detected outside of the building in the vicinity of the new HVAC units attached to the WGS new gym.

Following the technician's recommendation, gas service was immediately shut off to the affected areas. Based on the type and location of the leaks, the Ameren technician determined that an evacuation of the building was not necessary.

I want to assure our community that at no time was anyone—students or staff—in any danger. The immediate action taken ensured the safety of everyone in the building.

As a result of the necessary shut-off, the boiler will be off, and some areas of the main building will be without gas for the remainder of the day. We expect the issue affecting the main building will be repaired tonight, and the boiler will be operational before school starts tomorrow morning, Thursday, December 4, 2025.

The safety of our staff and students is always our utmost priority. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we address this matter swiftly.

In the event of severe weather, the district may use E-Learning days instead of snow days this school year. We hope it will be a while before we have to think about having to make that kind of decision, but the district e-learning plan is linked below for your reference. It can also be found on the district webpage under either the WGS or WHS tabs.

By the end of this week your child's teacher will communicate to the students how e-learning instruction will be delivered, or send that information home with your child. If you have any questions, please ask your child's teacher.
