From the Principal’s Pen

Dear Laurel Hill Families,

We so enjoyed celebrating our military connected students this week! We had a popcorn party on Monday and a family breakfast on Wednesday. Thank you to all the parents and guardians who serve our country and thank you to our students for showing resilience and flexibility every day in the face of adversity.

We invite all families to attend our International Night celebration tomorrow evening from 6-8 pm. Come see the exciting fashion show, native dances and taste some delicious dishes from around the world! We will see you there!

Sincerely,

Janice Dalton, Principal

Addison Smith, Assistant Principal

Thmeaka Traylor, Assistant Principal

FCPS is proud to celebrate National Arab American Heritage Month in April. This special month provides an opportunity to recognize the history and valuable contributions of Arab Americans. Arab Americans have ancestry in one of the world’s 22 Arab nations, which are located from northern Africa through western Asia. The people of these nations are ethnically, politically, and religiously diverse but share a common cultural and linguistic heritage.
