Clinic News!
Hello WHE family! My name is Lindsey Ferrell and I am so excited to be the School Nurse at WHE this year and for many years to come. I have been a Registered Nurse for 14 years with the past 5 years as the nurse at another campus in Humble ISD. My husband and I have two small children and I can promise that I will care for your children the same as I would my own. I wanted to provide some information to make the beginning of the school year a little smoother.
All students enrolling or previously enrolled must have up to date immunizations. ALL IMMUNIZATION RECORDS, when turned in (including electronic My Chart records), must be signed or stamped by the physician or his/her designee or public health personnel. We are unable to accept records that are not signed or stamped. Immunization requirements for elementary can be found here.
If your student requires medication at school (scheduled or as needed) please reference the Nurse section on the WHE website or see the following links. Medications given at school require an up to date Permission to Administer Medication Form that must be completed by parent and most of the time a physician. If your student has adrenal insufficiency, asthma, allergies/life threatening food allergies, diabetes or seizures there are additional forms to complete. All medication must be delivered/picked up by a parent or guardian. Medications are not allowed to be transported by students. It is helpful for the medications (in their original, labeled packaging) and completed documentation to be delivered to the nurse prior to the first day of school. This gives an opportunity for the parent/guardian and nurse to go over specific information and make sure all necessary information is complete. Please reach out to me to set up a time to deliver medications and documentation!
I look forward to supporting the students, families and staff at Woodland Hills Elementary!

Supplies for the 2023-24 School Year
Volunteer/Chaperone Application
WHE Online Store - Now Open!
Families can access the WHE Online Payment/Revtrak site to pay class fees and purchase a WHE school shirt! If you cannot pay online, you may bring cash to Woody’s Welcome or to the front office once our building opens for students.
- Grade Level Activity Fees ($20): These funds help provide various consumable materials for students throughout the school year, including, but not limited to, hands on science & social studies resources, and supplies for classroom use. Please support WHE by paying your grade level fees!
- 2023-24 WHE Spiritwear: Purchase your 2023-24 WHE spirit shirt ($10). Shirts pre-ordered by 8/5 will be available for pick up at Woody's Welcome. In addition, shirts will be available for purchase during Woody's Welcome, and will continue to be available for purchase throughout the school year as supplies last.
Child Nutrition
Humble ISD Child Nutrition Services is accepting Free & Reduced Meal applications for the 2023-2024 school year.
Parents will be able to put money into their child’s lunch account during Woody’s Welcome. In order to be eligible for free or reduced priced meals, households must reapply annually. Students who receive free/reduced price meals during the previous school year qualify for those benefits for the FIRST 30 DAYS of the following year in August.
Visit humbleisd.net/freeandreduced for more information.
First Day of School is Wednesday, August 9th. Doors open at 7:30AM.
Parents are welcome to walk their students to class on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL only. Doors open at 7:30am. We ask that parents make their way out of classrooms by the tardy bell at 8:00, so teachers can get started with their day. After the first day, parents will need to say their good-bye at the door, as we have plenty of staff members available to help students find their way to class.
WHE is NOT open for lunch visitors the first 3 weeks of school, so that we have time to teach routines and procedures. Lunch guests are welcome beginning Friday, September 1st.
