There is always something to look forward to at Dogwood! Make sure you stay connected and follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
We want to partner with you right away to make each and every Dragon successful. This year we will hold back to school conferences beginning on September 9th. Teachers are scheduling conferences with you now because we know when we all work together, students grow!
Second grade students will be participating in the CogAt testing during September 30, 2019 to October 10, 2019. Students who have not taken the CogAt in grades 3-6 will participate in the assessment.
Student participation in this assessment is important. Please avoid scheduling appointments during this time frame. Thank you!
Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) provides a comprehensive, sequential Family Life Education (FLE) program for students in grades kindergarten through grade twelve. Instruction is seen as a partnership among parents and guardians, the school, and the community in supporting the learning essential to the development of strong families, positive relationships, and a healthy community.
Parents/guardians may choose to opt their child out of all or part of the Family Life Education program. Students who are opted out are provided with age-appropriate, nonpunitive alternative health instruction, and every effort is made to foster respect for family choices. If you wish to opt your child out of all or part of FLE for this school year, opt out forms will be included in your child’s back-to-school/orientation packets and are available online for Elementary (K-6) https://www.fcps.edu/academics/elementary-school-academics-k-6/elementary-family-life-education Please fill in the opt-out form and return it to your child’s school prior to Family Life Education instruction.
