Welcome to Nathaniel Woodhull Elementary School, “Where education begins.”
It is our pleasure to greet you as partners in your child’s educational journey. Here at Nathaniel Woodhull, we are fortunate to have highly qualified, professional, and dedicated faculty and staff members who are truly committed to providing our students with the best education in a caring and nurturing environment. The members of the Nathaniel Woodhull Learning Community are dedicated to meeting the individual learning needs of all of our students.
As the William Floyd School District Mission Statement indicates, “We are committed to teach, encourage, and challenge all students to fulfill their intellectual, emotional, aesthetic, and physical potential, and to apply their knowledge and skills to become contributing, responsible citizens of a rapidly changing, diverse, global society.” It is our job to make that vision a reality.
Together we can make great things happen! We look forward to this school year with great anticipation and excitement. Please feel free to contact us at any time if you have any questions or are looking for opportunities to assist in your child’s education.
