THE LATEST FROM WOODROW
Brick Campaign

Help support Woodrow by purchasing a commemorative brick! 

The Class of 2003 installed the first commemorative bricks and benches in our horseshoe to create a Woodrow “Walk of Pride” seating area. You can purchase a brick for a student, an alumnus, your favorite teacher, or your class. 

Orders are taken during the school year through the end of May. Installation will happen over the summer break.

Pricing: Current students can purchase a brick for $45. Once a student has graduated the price of the bricks will increase to $90. 

Keep in mind that this is a Fundraiser and there is a limited amount of space in our courtyard.
