Dear Canterbury Woods Families,
It has been another busy week, we are so proud of our students for their hard work, perseverance, and focus throughout the SOL testing window. Our students have demonstrated tremendous effort, and we appreciate the support from our staff and families in helping them do their best each day.
As Memorial Day Weekend approaches and we enjoy time with family and friends, let us also take a moment to remember and express our gratitude to the men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country. We extend a special thank you to our CWES military families for your service and dedication.
We wish all of our Canterbury Woods families a safe, relaxing, and wonderful long weekend!

 Join us for our Quarter 4 Family Book Club: CWES Loves Nature on Thursday, June 4th at 8:15 am in the library. An adult must be in attendance with their student. Students and families can choose from one of 2 books: the picture book: Creek Finding or the chapter book: Forest World. Families are encouraged to read the books alongside their students. We will celebrate our final book club outdoors (weather permitting).
Lunch Balances
Please Check Your Student’s Lunch Balance
It’s a busy time of year, and we know many priorities are on your plate. As we approach the end of the school year, it is important to check your student’s MySchoolBucks account and pay any remaining school meal balance.
Free and Reduced-Price Meals
Families who earn less than 185% of the poverty level qualify for free and reduced-price meals (FRM). However, an application must be completed and submitted each school year to receive that benefit. The application for the 2026-27 school year will be available this summer.
If you have a current balance and think you may be eligible for free and reduced-price meals, please fill out the FRM application for the 2025-26 school year.
Third Annual FCPS Puzzle Hunt Encourages Active Family Fun
The Solving Fun Puzzle Pals have been busy getting ready for the 3rd Annual Fairfax County Public Schools Puzzle Hunt, and it kicks off in only three weeks!
This free event is open to solvers of all ages and is a great way to keep students and families engaged in fun, creative problem-solving over the summer. It also teaches bike and pedestrian safety and encourages active transportation.
New this year: The school with the most solvers will win a special visit from Sue Doku!
Sign up for the Puzzle Hunt!
Attendance
Finish the School Year With Strong Attendance!
As we enter the final weeks of the school year, Fairfax County Public Schools appreciates your continued partnership in supporting your child’s success. Regular attendance plays an important role in helping students stay engaged in learning, maintain connections with their teachers and peers, and finish the school year strong.
Attending school consistently also helps students build valuable habits such as responsibility, perseverance, and daily routines that support success both in and out of the classroom.
If your child needs to miss school, please remember to report the absence. Full-day absences can be reported in ParentVUE. Families may also report absences by calling the school attendance line or emailing the school-designated attendance address.
If your child is experiencing challenges that are affecting attendance, we are here to help. Please contact your child’s school so staff can partner with you to provide support and resources. Learn more about attendance resources.
CWES will use Schoology for all Tuesday Folder contents. All flyers are posted to Schoology Course: Canterbury Woods Elementary School All Parents/Guardians and contents are listed below.
Want a quick way to recognize an employee or team? Share an FCPS CARES! Families, colleagues, and students are all invited to submit. The FCPS CARES is automatically sent to the recipient(s) and their supervisor, and is posted on fcps.edu. Additionally, each month one school in our region wins a staff celebration from HR.
