Woodford Academy

💙💚🐾🎻

ICYMI: CPS students from Westwood and Woodford recently performed at the University of Cincinnati through a collaboration with CCM Prep. Through this partnership, students receive specialized instruction in their instrument of choice, and the showcase at UC served as the ultimate culmination of their hard work, dedication and talent.

In honor of Juneteenth, a day of profound significance in American history, all CPS buildings will be closed on June 19th. We encourage you to participate in community events, explore educational resources, and engage in conversations that shed light on the significance of Juneteenth.
