Woodside Priory School Parents' E-mail Lists

In order to receive the Daily Bulletin, and other informational e-mails throughout the school year, parents and guardians should subscribe to the e-mail list of their student's high school graduation year. If you have a boarding student, please subscribe to the parents-dorm list as well.

To change your e-mail address in an Email List, please unsubscribe from your old email account, then subscribe using your new email account.

Notes:

  • Parents and guardians of students who attended Woodside Priory School last year do not need to re-subscribe to the list unless their e-mail address has changed.
  • These e-mail lists are for sending information to parents and guardians from the Woodside Priory School. They are not for interactive discussion among the members of the list.
  • Mrs. Van Wagenen, College Counselor, uses the parents-2008 and parents-2009 to communicate with parents about college matters. You must be subscribed to receive her information.
  • If you have more than one student at the Priory, you may receive multiple copies of the morning announcements and some other communications.
  • New parents: The e-mail address you designated as "family e-mail" on your registration form has been added to the list for you. You may add additional e-mail addresses using these instructions.
