A Message from Mrs. Ormsbee
Greetings Herbison Woods Families!
We have had so many great end of the year events and experiences for our students at Herbison Woods! Below are a few pictures from some of the activities and projects students have been participating in. Thank you to all of those involved in helping to make these great experiences for everyone!
I am truly grateful for the opportunity to serve as the principal at Herbison Woods, and am looking forward to the 2024-2025 school year! It has been a pleasure to get to know the families and students in the community and school. We will miss our fifth graders moving to the middle school, and wish them luck as they move on to their next chapter. For our returning students, I wish you a safe and fun summer, and I look forward to seeing you all in the fall! Thank you for all of your support this year and for partnering with our team!
Sincerely,
Alicia Ormsbee

Students in Ms. Murray's class created a Volume Zoo to apply their math skills in real life. The class worked on calculating the volume of a composite figure and then turned their boxes into animals.
