Dear Shrevewood Families,
As we end our third week together, our teachers are giving their all to provide instruction and monitor student engagement. Your words of gratitude mean the world to our staff as they work harder than ever. The love and care for our students is evident and I hope you are seeing it shine through in your home as well. We know that on your end, you are working as hard as our partners in education and we appreciate you!
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!
Joshua DeSmyter
Principal
Each year FCPS requires each family to review the current Student's Rights & Responsibility Handbook. This year, there have been significant updates for our virtual learning environment. Please take time to review the related resources and complete the Parent/Student Form.
Even though we aren't in school, let's show we are SHREVEWOOD STRONG from home! Spirit Wear is on sale now! Head to the PTA STORE and check out all the great options: masks, socks, sweatshirts, and even lawn signs to show your Shrevewood Spirit while we are away from the building. You can also view them in this Spirit Wear flyer. All orders are due by September 27th.
NOTE: Spirit Wear will need to be PICKED UP this year (we will provide all information and multiple dates once orders are placed and we have delivery estimates).
Fairfax County Public Schools offers a Full-time Advanced Academic Program (Level IV) for students in grades 3 – 8 that focuses on academic depth and complexity in the four core content areas. Eligibility for Level IV services is determined through a selection committee at the central office level.

This is a reminder to please notify us if your child will be absent or late for their first synchronous session which begins Monday-Friday at 9:20 a.m. If your child needs to participate in their academic day asynchronously please contact the school and provide the reason. Asynchronous participation will require principal approval to count towards attendance. We will have a “call-out” for any students who were absent and marked as unverified for the reason for absence at the end of the school day at approximately, 4 p.m. If you receive that call please contact our office the next day.
Here is how you may report your child’s absence, including tardies, and asynchronous participation:
