From the Principal's Desk
Dear Families,
On Thursday, we held our first-ever CWES Spelling Bee! Congratulations to our Champion, Ryan Hembree, a 5th grader in Ms. Wheeler's class and our Runner-up, Rowan Kim, a 4th grader in Ms. Vance's class!
CWES was in the news on Friday! Ms. Wilson has launched a Mentorworks program to match some of our Deaf and Hard of Hearing students with Deaf mentors in the community. Read more from WTOP.
Now that spring weather is around the corner, this is the last call for claiming lost winter clothes! Please come and visit our lost and found. In late March, we will donate the outerwear to families in need.
Have a wonderful week!
Warm regards,
Diane Leipzig, Dr. L

School Health Services Survey
The Fairfax County Health Department (FCHD) employs school health aides and public health nurses who provide school health services to the students in Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS). To determine the quality of these services, a survey has been developed by the FCHD to be shared with all parents or guardians and school staff members who interact with the school health rooms. This may include principals, school counselors, and main office staff members. The survey has been approved for distribution by the FCPS’ Internal Survey Advisory Committee.
Electronic versions of the survey forms may be accessed at:
School Health Services Survey – Parents 2020: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/K9VWCJ6 approval # 20217
School Health Services Survey-Parents 2020 (Spanish): https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/K7KGXTS approval #20217
School Health Services Survey – STAFF 2020: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/KDDYRW3 approval # 20216
The survey will take less than five minutes to complete and will provide the FCHD with valuable information. Your participation in this important endeavor is appreciated.
