Can you spot the two school counselors in this picture?
Our wonderful school counselors seem to be everywhere supporting the success of our students. In this photo, they are seen with 6th grade students who are preparing for the transition to middle school.
Happy School Counseling Week Mrs. Spears & Mrs. Bradner!
We are so very lucky to have you at Lees Corner!
This school year, Lees Corner is participating in Special Olympics: Unified Sports! Students in our special education program are paired up with some of their 5th grade general education peers to create one unified team. The team will be participating in our first competition this Sunday, 2/9/20, at Kenmore Middle School (200 S. Carlin Springs Rd, Arlington, VA 22204). Come out and cheer for our hardworking athletes and partners! Students will be playing at 10:00-11:00 and 12:00-1:00. Please contact Katie Bamberger (kbamberger@fcps.edu) or Olivia Yellen (omyellen@fcps.edu) with any questions.
Tuesday, February 11th will be the 100th day of school!
We invite you to dress in a way that celebrates the 100th Day. This could mean dressing like you are 100 years old, or somehow displaying 100 items on your outfit.
