Meet the Principal
Welcome to Woods Elementary—home of the mighty Wolverines! I am honored to serve as the principal of this incredible school community, where we are all dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of our children. We truly believe that, together, we can help every child become a successful learner.
As a proud Clovis native and graduate of Clovis High School, I’m deeply connected to the values and vision that have guided our district since its founding. I’m also a proud wife and the mother of three Buchanan High School graduates—experiencing the district both as an educator and as a parent has strengthened my commitment to providing the very best for our students and families.
At Woods, our team is devoted to building strong partnerships with our families and community members to create the best educational experience possible for all students. Inspired by the beliefs of our founding superintendent, Dr. Floyd B. Buchanan, Woods offers programs that support the development of the whole child—mind, body, and spirit.
Our staff and students strive to live out our Wolverine G.R.O.W.L. values each day by:
Give Your Best Effort
Respect for All
Outstanding Character
Wolverine Pride
Leading by Example
We offer a rigorous, standards-based academic program that challenges and supports every student to believe in themselves and reach their fullest potential. At the same time, we know that learning goes beyond the classroom. Whether it’s athletics, music, robotics, drama, or other co-curricular opportunities, we are proud to provide something for everyone.
As you explore our website, we hope you’ll get a glimpse of the energy, dedication, and heart that make Woods Elementary so special. We are looking forward to an amazing school year!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Cecelia Dansby
Principal, Harold L. Woods Elementary School
Clovis Unified School District
