Dear Shrevewood Families,
It was great to see so many parents join us for our first PTA meeting September 15. We have always appreciated our partnership with our families and during this unusual time, we welcome the opportunity to continue our work as a community. Please consider supporting our PTA - they do so much for our students, staff and school!
Have you had a chance to explore our virtual learning resources on our Shrevewood web page? If you go to this link, you will find web resources, technology support and a great collection of student counseling and wellness resources put together by our Student Services Team (Mr. Boster, Mrs. McKinley, Zamir Bridgman, and Sarah Delia). I highly recommend you check out the Virtual Calming Room, with a wide range of activities to help students of all ages with calming strategies.
Last week, Dr. Brabrand met with the School Board regarding the Return to School plan. The Board approved a motion in support of the Superintendent’s Operational Level 2 plan to bring in small cohorts of students in October for in-person instruction. Get more information about the Return to School plan.
Have a great weekend!

Fairfax County Public Schools Superintendent Scott S. Brabrand presented a plan to the Fairfax County School Board to begin in-person instruction in a phased plan for small groups—or cohorts—of students who are likely to experience the greatest challenges with distance learning.
The cohorts include select special education programs, English language learners and newcomers, and select career and technical education courses. The Board approved a motion in support of the Superintendent’s Operational Level 2 plan to bring in small cohorts of students in October for in-person instruction.
Get more information about the Return to School plan.

FCPS Return to School
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:
