I hope you all had an awesome week! We had a great week of WIDA testing for our multilingual learners! Please congratulate your students for finishing their testing as they worked hard. Here are a few important updates and reminders as we head into a full week next week.
We had a great picture day on Thursday! There were so many smiles around the school and we are so proud of our students. The PTA is excited to host its first school wide Glow Dance on Friday March 7! The Glow Dance will be from 6:00 - 8:00 PM in the gym. Don’t miss out on this fun event! Flyers for this event will go out next Thursday.
Attendance Matters! We love seeing your children at school every day! Consistent attendance is key to their success, and we appreciate your continued efforts in getting them to school on time, every day. As always, we are thankful for your partnership and are here to support you and your students in any way. Please never hesitate to reach out – We are here for you!
Best,
Brandon Hunt

By enrolling in a Career and Technical Education (CTE) course or program, students learn the technical applications of many occupations while preparing for higher education or entry-level employment. A core program of CTE courses is offered in every middle and high school including Business and Information Technology, Family and Consumer Sciences, Health and Medical Sciences, Marketing, Technology and Engineering Education, and Trade and Industrial Education. Since this is an elective, course offerings may vary by school. Learn more on the FCPS CTE webpage.
CTE also offers summer programs for students to explore their programs. Enroll now!

Ramadan begins at sundown on Friday, February 28. This day is an evening-only observance day. There is school on these days, but certain activities that cannot be made up can not take place after school. See the complete school year calendar.Throughout the year, as we celebrate and recognize various cultural holidays and observances, families are encouraged to contact their child’s principal regarding accommodations, including but not limited to those around lunch, prayer/meditation and silent reflection spaces and times, and instruction.
El calendario escolar reconoce muchas observaciones religiosas y culturales (días O) durante el año escolar. Hay escuela en estos días, sin embargo, la Junta Escolar ha pedido que los exámenes, pruebas, excursiones, graduación, "homecoming", o eventos atléticos programados por FCPS no se llevarán a cabo en estos días de observancia. Vea el calendario completo del año escolar.A lo largo del año, cuando celebramos y reconocemos diversas festividades y observancias culturales, se anima a las familias a ponerse en contacto con el director de su estudiante con respecto a las adaptaciones, incluyendo pero no limitado a los relacionados con el almuerzo, la oración / meditación y espacios y tiempos de reflexión en silencio, y la instrucción.
