Student’s in Ms. Dinan’s class happily planted their sunflowers in our Outdoor Classroom. We are learning about biodiversity as well as plant and animal interdependence. Way to go, scientists! ~ Miss Pivarnik
We have quite a collection of LOST items in our Lost & Found--shirts, sweaters, jackets, hats, etc. If your child is missing something, please feel free to stop by and check our Lost and Found buckets in the cafeteria.
This past Saturday, Christy Slone, our adapted PE teacher, and Olivia Yellen, our school social worker were presenters at the FCPS Special Education Conference. They presented on Lees Corner’s Blizzard Buddies program. The photo is of the trifold that our 4th grade participants helped create. We are so proud of these students and what they do to make our school a more inclusive environment!
Students in grades 3, 4, 5 and 6 will take Standards of Learning (SOL) tests this spring. You may view Lees Corner's complete SOL Testing Schedule by clicking here or by going to the Lees Corner home page.
Please keep the testing schedule in mind as you schedule appointments and other events that may take your child out of school. Tests generally begin at about 9 a.m. each day so it is important for students to arrive to school on time. We will share more information about testing in the near future.

The Chantilly Pyramid 8th Annual College Day will be Friday, April 26th! As we have done for the past 7 years, Lees Corner staff will be wearing college gear representing their alma mater and we invite students to join in with their favorite college wear too. Throughout the day, teachers and staff will talk about some of their experiences in choosing a school and highlights from their college years. We will also have Chantilly seniors coming back to speak with 5th and 6th graders at the end of the day. |
Congratulations to all of our student artists who had their work displayed at the Chantilly Pyramid Art Show!
There were two special choral ensembles this spring in which our students participated. On February 27, sixteen of our 6th grade students participated in the Chantilly Pyramid Honors Choir. This audition-group consisted of students from the elementary schools in the Chantilly Pyramid. The other choral event was the All-County Choral Festival. This concert on March 30th featured over 900 singers from around the county and 8 singers from Lees Corner. Congratulations to all of these students for being selected for these ensembles and for doing a great job representing Lees Corner!
