Welcome to the 2020/21 School year!!
Welcome back to another school year at Woodworth Middle School! We hope you had a fun and relaxing summer vacation and are ready to embark on this new year with enthusiasm while having a growth mindset. We are excited to have you and would have preferred to welcome you back in a more traditional way. Unlike other first days of school, this year is going to be different. However, we are positive that together we will get through it!
First, I would like to introduce myself to you. I am Mr. Murphy, and I will be your Advisory teacher. I will also be the point of contact for you during this remote learning period. If you have any questions or concerns, you can reach me at the email address I provided below.
I have sent you an email to your Dearborn Schools email address that includes your schedule. Please ensure that you have it.
One thing we added this year is grade level teams. We have two teams in 7th and 8th grade– Team A and Team B. Each student will be part of a team and will report to the same group of teachers. Please refer to the table below and your schedule (attached below) to see your team designation based on who your teachers are. You will also find a calendar for the month of September that shows the rotation of days (A/B) so it’s easier to follow.
| Teams 7A | Team 7B | Team 8A | Team 8B |

By now, you should be able to access your Student Connect account. Use your student ID and password (from last year) to log in to Student Connect and view your schedule.
To make sure that you have all the materials needed for this school year, we will be running a required drive thru pick-up for all students. Students will get a welcome packet, their math book, amongst other materials. There are roads closed throughout the Woodworth neighborhood. The traffic and distribution will be one way on Hubbard next to door number 7 facing Greenfield. Please plan on arriving during your set time by the beginning letter of your last name; if you are unable to make it during your set time, try to be here when your assigned grade level is here.
