This week at Eagle View...

Principal's Message

Dear Eagle View Families,

What an amazing week it has been! Eagle View was bursting with laughter, joy, and connection as we celebrated Stress Less, Laugh More Week. Our staff and students truly embraced the spirit of the week, participating in daily wellness activities that brought smiles all around.

We kicked off the week with a vibrant and high-energy House Pep Rally! It was wonderful to see our school community come together to show spirit and unity.

One of the highlights of the week was the visit from our therapy animals—alpacas, a baby goat, and a bunny! The students absolutely loved their time with these gentle and calming animals. Another favorite moment was creating beautiful nature mandalas with Ms. Morency, which gave our students a chance to express creativity and mindfulness in a meaningful way.

Looking ahead, please remember that Monday, April 29th is a 3-hour early release day. Additionally, we will begin SOL testing for our 3rd–6th grade students next week. Please refer to the SOL testing schedule below and avoid scheduling appointments during testing times to help your child do their best.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Have a restful weekend!

Sincerely,

KJ An

Principal

Social and Emotional Learning Screener: Parent Reports

Students in grades 3-12 took the SEL Screener during the month of March, providing information on their SEL skills such as achieving goals, understanding and managing emotions, establishing and maintaining relationships, and making responsible decisions. The screener also asks students how well their school community makes them feel valued, included, and supported.

Individual student SEL Screener results are available to families in the Documents section of SIS ParentVUE. For families who do not have an active ParentVUE account, results will be sent via postal mail.

For support in understanding your individual student’s results or for ideas on how to support them at home, please review the SEL Screener Results Family Guide or reach out to our school staff with any questions.

Protect Your Child from Measles: What You Need to Know

Measles cases continue to rise in the U.S. About 1 in 5 people who get measles end up in the hospital. Measles can cause severe complications like a lung infection (pneumonia), brain inflammation (encephalitis), and possibly death, even with medical care. Symptoms of measles typically include:

High fever (may spike up to 104°F)
Cough
Runny nose
Red, watery eyes
A rash that appears around 3-5 days after other symptoms begin. The rash typically starts on the face and spreads down the body.

The best way to protect a child from measles is by getting two doses of the combination measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine.

If you are unsure of your child's vaccination status or your personal vaccination status, talk to your health care provider. If your child needs an immunization, make an appointment with your health care provider, visit the Fairfax County Health Department website for a list of child immunization clinics, or view other Immunization Resources.

Spring SOL testing is right around the corner! These state-mandated standardized tests are required for all students in grades 3-6 and help measure their progress in reading, math, and science (for 5th grade).

Please review the testing schedule below and make every effort to ensure your child is present and ready on their testing day.
