 It was good to have almost everyone back at school this week after the snow. (We look forward to having AM preK back next week.) Instead of outdoor recess, we had fun at our end-of-2nd quarter dance parties on our first day back.

FCPS collaborates with Panorama Education to develop a research-backed SEL Screener. All students in grades 3-12 participate in the screener twice a year, in the fall and spring. The screener is untimed, though it takes most students about 15 minutes to complete. Camelot 3rd-6th graders will take the screener on March 10, 11 or 12. To learn more about the SEL Screener or to opt your child out (if not opted out in the fall), please visit the FCPS SEL Screener website: https://www.fcps.edu/student-tests-and-assessments/student-assessment-details/social-emotional-scre
