Ten
Woodbury Frequently Asked Questions
What
are Woodbury's hours of operation?
The
student's advisory period begins at 7:25.
Students must be
in their classroom at that time or they will have to
check-in at
the
main office for a late pass. We find
arriving by 7:15 allows the students enough time to get to their lockers and
classes on time.
The end of the day
bell rings at 2:10.
Where
do I drop off and pick up my children by car?
Parents
may drop off their children beginning at 6:30am. Please use the
back driveway accessed on the right side of the
building. Do not stop on

the lot across the street or on
not use our driveways as they are needed to load the buses. Crossing
guards are on duty in the mornings and
afternoons.
