Parent Input for the 19-20 School Year

We are in the process of gathering information regarding class placements for next year.  The process is quite extensive and involves collaborative input from the administration, each student’s current classroom teacher, and many of our Specialists.  Each staff member is committed to making sure that your child has the best educational experience for the next school year.

Because the Cub Run staff knows your child’s educational needs from previous experiences and has worked so hard to match your child with the best possible class placement, we want you to know that parents are not required to complete this Google form.  If parents want to give additional information about the needs of their child, please focus on your child’s specific educational needs and characteristics.  We ask that parents refrain from requesting specific teachers.

Completed forms must be received by June 4, 2019.  Information received after June 4, 2019 will not be considered for class placement.

Dress Code

Fairfax County Public Schools respects the rights of students to express themselves in the way they dress. It is important, however, that their appearance is tasteful and appropriate for a K-12 school setting.

Clothing and accessories should not:

 Display vulgar, discriminatory, or obscene language or images

 Promote illegal or violent conduct

 Contain threats or gang symbols

 Promote the unlawful use of weapons, alcohol, tobacco, drugs, or drug paraphernalia

 Expose private parts or show excessive amount of bare skin

 Contain studs

 Be see-through or sexually provocative

 Include caps or other head coverings unless required for religious medical reason

 

Additional Dress Code Requirements: Cub Run ES

 Shoes must be worn in the building, on school grounds, and on the school bus.

Note: shoes or sandals that have no strap (flip-flops) around the heel are dangerous and therefore not permitted

 Sneakers are recommended for Physical Education (PE) and recess

 If students choose to wear dresses, they are asked to wear shorts or pants under them while participating in PE or recess.

Students not complying with FCPS and Cub Run dress codes will be asked to cover the non-complying clothing, change clothes, or be sent home. Repeated infractions will result in disciplinary action.


Blanket Donations Wanted:

For their Bronze Award project, members of Girl Scout Troop 54073 are hosting a blanket drive to benefit the animals of Fairfax County Animal Shelter. From May 22nd through June 5th, please bring in a new or used blanket for the donation box in the lobby of Cub Run ES. This drive is not sponsored by FCPS. If you have questions, please contact jenniferlatimer@gmail.com


Clinic Medications

The school health room is reminding parents and guardians that all medication stored in the health room must be picked up no later than the student dismissal time on the last day of school. Medication left in the health room after that time will be discarded. It is school policy that medications must be picked up by the parent or guardian. Medication cannot be sent home with your student.

Your cooperation will ensure that we can safely give your student his or her medication. If you have any questions, please contact your school health room aide, Cat Kovacic at 703.633.7510, or your school public health nurse, Dawna Poyner at 571.386.8772.

 


 School Food Accounts

Please remember to add money to your child’s school nutrition account.  All accounts must be brought current before the end of the school year in June.

Our lost and found area is overflowing!! If your student has lost something, please stop by and see if it has made it into our lost and found. Items remaining will be donated at the end of the school year.
