Dogwood Families,
We are beyond excited to welcome you back to school tomorrow! We look forward to seeing your children online at 8:50 on Tuesday morning. You have received the BBCU or Google Meet/Google Classroom link/code from your child’s teacher in the fcpsschools.net gmail account. That link will take you directly to the first day of school!
Below are some important beginning-of-the-year, need-to-know items to ensure that the children will have a strong start to the school year. If you have questions about anything, please reach out to the Dogwood office at (703) 262-3100 between 8am-4pm. Our teachers and staff are also available to answer any questions you may have during these hours.
We are so looking forward to starting this school year together with you. Thank you for your partnership and we look forward to seeing you at our first Virtual Back to School Night on Thursday!
Sincerely,
Mie Devers
Principal
