Second Annual Gator Swamp Romp to be held Friday, May 12
Get ready to
get down! Our 4-6 classes would like to invite parents to view our new moves at
Kings Glen Elementary School on Friday, May 12 to join us for a celebration of the completion of our dance
unit. This year each grade level will demonstrate a number of dances from many
cultures (multi-cultural dress is encouraged). Parents are invited to attend
and participate in all of the fun! For the classroom schedule check our Kings Glen website. We
hope you can romp on down to Kings Glen, it should be a swamp stompin’ good
time!
Bike to School Day is Wednesday, May 10
The Annual Bike to School Day will take place on Wednesday, May 10
before and after school. We will have a meet up at the corner of
Clydesdale and South Hampton at 8:10 AM. After we meet up, we will ride down
the hill to the school and pool bike racks. We will lock our bikes (you should
bring your own lock) to ensure their safety during the day. In the
afternoon, the bikers will be dismissed with Walkers and Kiss and Ride. Please
ensure that students are ready to go at dismissal with their helmet on to avoid
traffic delays. If you are interested in additional information about
bicycle safety (how to lock a bike properly, routes, or how to check your
bike), there are a number of tutorials on Physical Education 24/7 site under Course Materials to assist
you with preparation for the big day. Hope to see you there!

FCPS Continuum of AAP Services
Fairfax
County Public School offers a continuum of advanced academic services for all
students in grades K-8. Learning experiences are designed to develop
high-level thinking through enrichment, acceleration, and extensions of the
Program of Studies. Teachers, administrators, and the advanced academic
resource teachers work together to provide various levels of school based
services in each elementary school.
Screening for school-based services can happen at any time
during the school year but is done schoolwide in spring to determine services
for the next school year. Parents or guardians may initiate the screening
for school-based services by submitting the AAP School-Based Services (Level
II-III) Referral Form to the Kings Glen Advanced Academic Resource Teacher,
Mrs. Agner, by Thursday, May 25th . Multiple criteria are used
to screen students for all levels of AAP services including: parent
information, CogAt and NNAT scores, SOL scores, work samples, as well as
teacher input. If you have any questions please contact Mrs. Agner by email caagner@fcps.edu or call 703-239-4000.
