A Note From Our Principal,
Happy New Year! We can’t wait to spend 2021 with you and your children. Thank you to all who participated in our holiday giving initiative last month.
During January, we will be conducting a drive to support our community. We will be collecting gently used suitcases for children in foster care within Fairfax County. Often these children have nothing more than a plastic bag to carry their belongings. Let’s help them travel in dignity while supporting and comforting these children during these very stressful and traumatic times in their lives. Please bring in gently used suitcases and/or new items like tooth brushes, stuffed animals, journals, crayons with coloring books etc. to donate! We appreciate everyone’s participation in our community events.
Please take a moment to read through the news and reminders below and let me know if you have questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Heather Hyland
