Hockey Senior Night
Robinson Ice Hockey celebrated their Seniors Friday the 4th at their game against Washington-Liberty. Even though the crowd was VERY small, it was great to celebrate our seniors on the ice. We had a tough loss, but look forward to facing Hayfield/South County Friday the 11th. Look for the livestream to cheer on our Rams!

Season of Giving Gift Card Donation Request
Hello Robinson Community,
As the holiday season approaches, we are asking for your help in collecting gift cards for families in our school and community that need a little extra support, especially at the holidays.
Thanksgiving:
Starting now, we are collecting grocery gift cards for Thanksgiving.
Please label your gift card with the value on it. This makes it easier for distribution.
Winter holidays:
Many of our students are too old to be referred for angel tree programs and teenagers are often overlooked.
We are requesting your help with providing gift cards to Giant, Safeway, Target, Amazon, and Walmart to give to families.
Gift cards can be dropped off in the Robinson main doors (Entrance 1) with the security officers or you may mail them to:
Robinson Secondary School
c/o Social Workers
5035 Sideburn Rd
Fairfax, VA 22032
Cards will be distributed by our social workers. This will take some planning, so if you drop them off by December 11, it would be appreciated.
Gift cards not distributed at the holidays are used throughout the year to help families with emergent basic needs.
If you would be so kind as to indicate the amount of money on the gift cards that would be very helpful!
Thank you for your kindness and generosity!
Christyn Levy and Kristen Licciardo (your social work team)
