Olde Creek Families…
Our students and staff members have
been working incredibly hard, are constantly collaborating with each other, and
have been learning and growing together during the first seven months of the
year. We have so much to be proud of and we are excited to head into the final
months of the academic year with lots of energy and positive momentum. Below are a few calendar reminders for the next few weeks:
- March
26-March 30 is Spring Break (Olde Creek ES Offices will be closed).
- April 2
(Monday after Spring Break) is a student holiday.
- Friday,
April 13 is a 2-Hour Early Release Day (and the end of third quarter)
- Monday,

We hope
that all of you have a safe, relaxing, and enjoyable Spring Break! We can’t
wait to hear about it when the students return on April 3.

VIP
Summer Camp for Rising 7th Graders
What is your middle school child doing
this summer? Like you, we believe your child is a very important person and
deserves a summer experience that is safe and full of fitness, friends, fun and
enrichment. FCPS and the Fairfax County Department of Neighborhood and
Community Services (DNCS) have teamed up to offer a 5 week camp for rising 7th
and 8th graders attending Frost, Irving, Lake Braddock, Robinson, and South
County Middle Schools. There is a $50 camp supply fee and small fees for
specific field trips. Campers will have a great time playing sports,
games, doing arts and crafts and cooking. Field trips to local waterparks and
amusement parks also give campers exciting experiences to look forward to with
their new friends. The staff is comprised of FCPS teachers and support
staff, After School Program Specialists, and trained DNCS staff. Transportation
is provided to and from each middle school to South County Middle School.
