Woods Road Child Development Center

Woods Road Child Development Center We are a Child Development Center located in the heart of Florence. We are part of Florence 1 Schools. This is known as Count 5!

Our Mission: “A place where movement becomes learning!”
Our Vision: “Children require play and movement, physical and social nourishment, sleep, daily routine and rhythm, and constant attentive care in order to be prepared to enter Kindergarten ready to learn.”

Something we try to share within the community and with our families is the Count 5! initiative.
*In order for children to be successful for kindergarten they need proper sleep and nutrition, a consistent schedule, movement, and love.

Woods Road CDC is proud to announce and celebrate our 2026–2027 Teacher of the Year and Support Staff Member of the Year!

Please join us in congratulating Mrs. Elizabeth Janssen, our 2026–2027 Teacher of the Year. Mrs. Janssen consistently demonstrates excellence in the classroom through her dedication, creativity, compassion, and commitment to student success. She goes above and beyond each day to create meaningful learning experiences while building strong relationships with students, families, and colleagues. Her passion for education and heart for children make her a true asset to our Wee Fox family.

We would also like to recognize Mr. Gavin McLaughlin as our 2026–2027 Support Staff Member of the Year. Mr. Gavin is known for his positive attitude, dependability, and willingness to help wherever needed. His hard work and support behind the scenes play a vital role in the daily success of our school community. He serves with excellence and is deeply appreciated by both staff and students alike.

At Woods Road CDC, we are blessed with an incredible team of educators and support staff who work tirelessly to create a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment for our students. We are honored to celebrate Mrs. Janssen and Mr. Gavin for this well-deserved recognition.
