Dear Friends of the Woodville School,
As 2021 comes to a close, we are looking back at all that we have accomplished during this challenging year. In partnership with the filmmaker Aviva Kempner, The Kellogg Foundation, The Ciesla Foundation, and Gloucester County Public Schools, we hosted an online screening of the documentary, Rosenwald, followed by a panel discussion with the filmmaker. Woodville was happy to partner with the Gloucester Union Relief Association, Circle Up Mid-Pen and the First United Baptist Church for a wonderful Juneteenth celebration. Archeological work was completed in advance of construction of the parking lot. The historical highway marker was installed and many community members attended the marker unveiling and toured the building. The Foundation joined the Julius Rosenwald and Rosenwald Schools National Park Campaign and the Woodville School was listed as a potential Rosenwald School satellite exhibit site. And of course, we had a grand celebration for our founding board member, president and executive director, Wes Wilson, for his 90th birthday
