Concert for the Community


Please mark your calendars to join us for the Reston Community Orchestra (RCO) on December 14th at 4:00 pm in the Aldrin gym.

This is their annual family holiday show!

We need Aldrin students to participate--we're looking for a few student volunteers for this event!  If your child is interested in playing two songs in a ukulele group, please email Becky Sowers rdsowers@fcps.edu.

If you have a budding ballerina, the RCO would like to invite them to dance during the Nutcracker songs! Also email Becky Sowers if interested.  No practice choreography required.

Please see the attached web site for more information at www.

It's the season of giving and generosity!  We are looking for any gently used Aldrin spiritwear that you and your family would like to donate. Maybe a pair of Aldrin sweats that no longer fit your growing kiddo. Or your family just has too much of a good thing and you need to clean out closets and drawers.  Winter Break would be the perfect time to do this!   Please consider donating them to the school to be washed and handed out so all of our Aldrin students can proudly show their Aldrin Pride!   Adult sizes are welcome too.

If you wish to donate any gently used spiritwear, please have your child bring them to school and drop them in the Aldrin Spiritwear box on the stage in the lobby.
