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.

Woodlawn High School is excited to announce the launch of our Cooperative Education Work Program — a new opportunity for students to gain real-world experience while earning school credit!

This course helps students develop professional skills, explore career paths, and build positive workplace relationships — all while working in the community. Students spend part of their week in paid positions and the rest in the classroom learning job survival skills, personal development, and future career planning.

We’re looking for local businesses and organizations to partner with us and provide meaningful work experiences for motivated, job-ready students!
As a partner, you’ll:
- Gain reliable student employees eager to learn
- Help shape the future workforce
- Build community connections and visibility
- Collaborate with a dedicated coordinator who supports both employer and student success

We are hoping to place students in positions that align with their long-term career goals. Below are some examples of positions that may be a good fit:
- Business Office Assistant
- Social Media/Marketing Assistant or Intern
- Automotive Shop Assistant
- Maintenance Technician Intern
- Community Outreach

If your business has any open opportunities, is interested in joining this exciting new program or learning more, please contact:
Hannah Cooper, Co-op Coordinator - hcooper@woodlawnschools.org
Leslie Witzel, Guidance Counselor - lwitzel@woodlawnschools.org
Woodlawn High School - 618-735-2631

Together, we can prepare our students for success — in school, in work, and in life!
