Shrevewood Wise Words

Hello Shrevewood Community,

I hope everyone had another great week!  Thank you to those  students and families who joined our virtual author night this past Wednesday!

This evening, there will be a message from FCPS leadership about the FCPS Return to School plan.  In this message they will share the importance of the health conditions and how that may impact/alter the FCPS in person return for students.  Please be sure to carefully read this communication.  We, as a Shrevewood Family, will continue to move forward with excellence as we navigate the return to school. Thank you for all of your support and enjoy the wonderful weather this weekend!

Sincerely,

Joshua DeSmyter

Principal
