News & Notes for the week of November 20

News & Notes

Dear Lake Anne Families,

We have a short week this week, as Thanksgiving is on Thursday.  We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all that you do to support your children’s learning.  As the saying goes, “it takes a village” and we are thankful you are a part of ours!

Please remember that school will dismiss early on Wednesday.  Students will be dismissed at 1:35 pm.  Our main office will also close early on Wednesday so that our staff can go home and hopefully be ahead of the holiday traffic. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Picture Retake & Make-up day

On Tuesday, November 28, students will be able to retake or make-up their school pictures.  If you would like for your student to retake their photo, simply send a note or email to their teacher.  You can also contact Sue Garrison in the main office (swgarrison@fcps.edu)

Lake Anne Musicians are performing!

Our Chorus and 6th grade Orchestra will be performing at the Holiday Kick-Off Event at Lake Anne Plaza on Saturday, December 2 between 11 am and 12 pm.  You can stop by and cheer for our students, as well as visit the activities, crafts, and food that will be available in the Lake Anne Plaza for this event. 

Some members of the Chorus and Band will also be performing at the PTA’s Holiday Shopping Fundraiser at Barnes & Noble in Fair Lakes on Sunday, December 3 between 1pm and 5pm.  

A big thank you to our music teachers and to all the parents who are helping to make both of these performances possible. 

LAES is famous!

We were very excited this week to see that Lake Anne students were featured on the FCPS website homepage.  We have included a screenshot below.  Go Dolphins!
