Dear Friends of the Woodville School,

Welcome to the Inaugural Edition of the Woodville School Newsletter.  Each monthly newsletter will include a Black History Quiz because at the Woodville School we believe that Black History is important every month of the year, not just February!

This past month we bid farewell to our President, Ranel Johnson.  Randy, and his wife Carla, have moved out of the area to be closer to their children.  We will miss Randy and wish him the very best.  Wes Wilson, the Foundation's Executive Director, will take on the role of Acting President.
