Parent and Community

Our Mission

The F.B. Woodley Elementary School community is accountable for the academic success of all students. We unite to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment which embraces diversity, holds high achievement expectations and motivates students to life-long learning.

Our Vision

Woodley Elementary School is a place where students, staff and community enjoy positive and safe surroundings, where students experience meaningful learning, and where all strive to reach their personal best in an environment of mutual acceptance.

 At Woodley Elementary School, students and staff in collaboration with parents and community members will provide a safe, encouraging, and inspiring atmosphere for learning. Students will be provided opportunities to gain skills to be proficient and advances in literacy, math and technology while building character, establishing relationships, setting goals as lifelong learners, and becoming productive citizens in an ever-changing society.

 To teach and inspire; to reach and transform every student every year/day. Learning to live, living to learn. It takes a world of differences to make a difference in our world. Learning to live, living to learn.



"Going from Good to Great as we Build a Better 
World One Student at a Time!"
 
 PARTNERSHIP 
 
 
Governor's Partnership Excellence Award 2013
Woodley Elementary and Parkway Heights United Methodist Church

The Hattiesburg Public School District’s formalized process of seeking adopters and partners is known as HALO, or Hattiesburg’s Ambassadors for Learning Opportunities. We actively seek school-community partnerships with businesses, civic organizations, school districts, faith-based organizations and others that will make investments in the lives of our students.

In the fall of 2006 the church’s leadership felt a call to reach out to Woodley Elementary to develop ties with children, the school administration and teachers. What followed was a steady groundswell which began with simple recognition of teachers and students. Dr. Eddie Rester, lead pastor, Rev. Julie Collins, along with Rev. Julian Davis, outreach pastor, facilitate the partnership process each year. All stakeholders participate in a planning meeting for the upcoming school year every May.

Woodley is under the leadership of Felicia Morris, principal, and her assistant principal, Jaronda Allen. She is serving her second year as principal and has seen the partnership grow, strengthen and strive over the years. She and her staff view Parkway Heights as an integral part of the teaching and learning process that happens each and every day at Woodley.
