LCES Toy Drive Update and Thank You

The PTA and Mrs. Filgueira would like to thank the LCES administration and community for making the inaugural Toys For Teachers Toy Drive a huge success! If you follow Toys for Teachers on Facebook, you already know that many toys (from the more than 9 boxes!) have already found homes in special education classrooms all over Fairfax County.  We could not have done this without your generous support. And an extra thank you to Troop 5799, Mr. Farida, Ms. Snyder and Ms. Curry for making sure we got all those boxes in the minivan!  


Band & Chorus Concert

The Spring Concert is scheduled for May 3rd at 6:45 PM in the gym. We hope you will be able to join us!
