Teamwork, Creativity and Community Partnerships Come Together to Make a Difference at Woodhull

Kindness, collaboration, and community spirit came together at Woodhull Intermediate School as students participating in the school's Makerspace program took on a special project to recognize their fellow Eagles.

Using pen-making craft kits generously donated by the Huntington Library, students designed and assembled unique, handcrafted pens to be presented to Woodhull's October Eagles of the Month. The project gave students an opportunity to put their imagination and hands-on skills to work while making something meaningful for others.

The initiative connected Woodhull's Makerspace program with its Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program, which encourages students to SOAR by being Safe, Owning Their Actions, Acting with Respect, and Rising to Their Best. With cooperation and teamwork as Woodhull's character focus for October, the project was especially meaningful. As students worked together to create thoughtful gifts for their peers, they demonstrated the very qualities being celebrated at this month's Eagle of the Month assembly.

The project also highlighted the value of community partnerships. Thanks to the generosity of the Huntington Library, students were able to turn a hands-on activity into a meaningful act of kindness and appreciation.

Woodhull is proud to see its Eagles working together to celebrate one another while strengthening connections between the school and the Huntington community. This special project is a wonderful example of how teamwork, positive character, and community partnerships come together to make a difference!
