We love seeing our students making the most of these beautiful days! ☀️

At Discovery Woods School, we believe time outside is an important part of a child’s day. Whether they’re playing, exploring, connecting with friends, or simply enjoying the sunshine, outdoor time gives our students opportunities to learn and grow beyond the classroom.

We need snacks! Please consider donating classroom snacks to our school. Snack donations can be dropped off at the school's main office. If the donation is for a certain classroom, please let us know. Thank you!

🎉 OUR GEODOME IS COMPLETE! 🎉
A few of our Summer Preschoolers (and Ms. Kori) were able to put it to the test on their FINAL day of Summer Preschool!

We are SO excited to officially say that the final phase of our new GeoDome is finished! And while we were at it, our swing area got a little refresh too, with brand-new woodchips!

The playground is looking better than ever, and we cannot wait to see it filled with our students again in just a little over TWO WEEKS! The countdown to a brand-new school year is officially ON!

🚨 PLAYGROUND UPDATE! 🚨

LOOK WHAT’S UP!

Our GeoDome is officially standing! 🎉 After so much planning, fundraising, site prep, hard work, and patience, it is SO exciting to finally see this part of our new playground coming together!

There is still work to be done, but every step gets us closer to giving our Discovery Woods students an incredible new space to climb, explore, play, and learn outdoors. 🌿💚

A HUGE thank you to everyone who has donated, volunteered, shared our fundraiser, and supported this project along the way. We truly could not do this without our amazing DWS community! Even a bigger shout out to all of the volunteers who have made this happen!

One step closer to a finished playground!
