Holiday Break

The Woods Private School will be closed for Holiday Break from Monday, December 22nd, 2025 through Friday, January 2nd, 2026. This special time allows our students, families, and staff to rest, recharge, and celebrate the holiday season with loved ones. Whether your family is traveling to visit relatives, enjoying cozy days at home, or creating new traditions together, we hope this break is filled with warmth, joy, and precious moments. School will resume on Monday, January 5th, 2026, and we look forward to welcoming our students back refreshed and ready for the new year ahead!

Holiday breaks provide essential benefits for children’s overall development and well-being. This time away from structured school routines allows students to rest and recharge, which is crucial for cognitive function, emotional regulation, and sustained academic growth. The extended break offers valuable opportunities for family bonding, creating traditions, and building lasting memories that strengthen emotional security and family connections. Students also benefit from unstructured play and exploration, which fosters creativity, imagination, and problem-solving skills in natural, relaxed settings. Additionally, this time allows children to practice independence, experience different environments and routines, and return to school with renewed enthusiasm and focus. The balance between learning time and rest time supports healthy childhood development and helps prevent burnout, ensuring students are mentally and emotionally prepared to engage fully when school resumes in the new year.
