Low temperatures and winds weren't enough to keep these students from participating in Fun Fit Friday and earning their tokens!


Veterans Day at Lees Corner

We will honor all veteran LCES family members with a picture slide show of our "veteran connections" during lunch on Veterans Day, Monday, 11-11-19.

Veteran family members are invited to join their student during the student’s regular lunchtime on Monday. If you or family members choose to join a student for lunch, please check in through the main office. Then, you may wait for your child’s class in the lobby or meet your student in the cafeteria.


Veterans Day Celebration

On November 12, 2019, all FCPS schools in the Chantilly High School pyramid will host a special event to honor local veterans and active-duty military personnel. Organized by the Chantilly pyramid and the non-profit group iWitnessed-> iRemember, the evening celebration will feature a series of special musical performances from Chantilly ensembles, a dessert reception supported by Mission B-B-Q, Wegmans, and other local businesses, and a special focus on the service of World War II veterans as we prepare for the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II.

The evening celebration will begin at 6 p.m. in the Chantilly High School auditorium. All veterans and active-duty service personnel who live or work in western Fairfax County are invited to attend and may sign up here: chantilly-thanks-our-veterans.eventbrite.com
