 Ms. Russell's 3rd grade class is diligently planning and designing a museum exhibit about ladybugs.
Integrity
Next week, our students will learn about integrity. Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody is watching. People with integrity practice what they preach and maintain a consistent pattern of behavior aligned with their values. They have the courage not to follow the crowd if it means going against their beliefs. A person who lacks integrity pretends to be something that they’re not or they say one thing and then do another.

Progress Report Changes
FCPS is moving to a
paperless progress report system. First quarter report cards will be printed;
however, we will be going paperless for second quarter. Please create a ParentVUE account to assist with the smooth transition to paperless delivery.
If you need an activation code, please email Mrs. Reyes at vvreyes@fcps.edu. If you need assistance signing up, please come to our Coffee & Conversation with Ms. Joranko on October 19th from 9:30-10:30. Please RSVP at ajoranko@fcps.edu.
STUDENT-PARENT SURVEY FOR FEDERAL IMPACT AID
Beginning on October 16th, FCPS will be asking all families to fill out a Student-Parent Survey for Federal Impact Aid.
Returning this form is important because information from this survey results in an anticipated $3 million dollars in grant funds each year from the U.S. Department of Education. These funds are used to support all Fairfax County public schools and centers.
For each school-aged child in your household, please complete, sign, date, and return the survey to your child's school. If sections 1 and 2 of the survey do not apply to you, just check the box in Section 3. All forms must be signed, dated, and returned by October 26. All results are CONFIDENTIAL.
