THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING OUR SCHOOL SO SPECIAL!
We are excited to have a new date for the Band and Strings concert. On Tuesday, May 24th from 10:15-11:00, our Band and Strings students, in grades 4-6, will have the opportunity to show off all their hard work!
For families of our band and strings students, you and one additional family member are invited to join, to see and hear all the wonderful things they have learned this year.
The concert will take place outside, on our field, to ensure social distancing. We encourage families to bring a blanket to sit on and enjoy the music.
For families who are unable to attend in-person, we will also be Live Streaming the concert.
It’s that time again - time to think about ordering school supplies for the 2022-23 school year! For those who may not be aware, School Kidz allows parents of students starting in Grades 1-6 to pre-order teacher approved supply lists. Your child’s supply box will be delivered directly to their classroom by PTA before school starts. Prices are comparable to what you pay in stores, and this saves you the hassle of supply shopping. It also helps support the Pine Spring community! (School starts on Monday, August 22, 2022.)
Paper order forms will be sent home with students. This year's due date for paper orders is Friday, June 3rd (no exceptions). Beginning Saturday, May 14th you also may order online at www.shopttkits.com. (Please note that you will need Pine Spring’s Account #: 40216.) Deadline for online orders is Friday, June 10. Questions? Contact Julie Herr at Lpas304@gmail.com.

As you know, COVID-19 cases have been increasing in Fairfax County and in schools. Here at Pine Spring we have seen an increase in cases and continue to encourage everyone to take the steps they feel necessary to stay safe and healthy.
We have been transparent about how the pandemic is impacting Pine Spring and our students all year. We will continue to share daily COVID-19 notifications whenever there is a confirmed positive case in our school. This information is provided to make our school community aware of the current situation and be able to make informed decisions about how to protect themselves.
I appreciate the patience, support, and understanding you have shown throughout this school year as we adjust our response to the pandemic. Together, we have kept our students participating in learning and activities. I look forward to celebrating the end of the school year with everyone.
If you are in need of a COVID-19 test, there are testing events in the area tomorrow. Please see below for locations and times.
8:00 – 10 a.m. Lake Braddock SS (back of school)
11:00 a.m. – 1 p.m. Robinson SS (back parking lot, near entrance 7)
2:00 – 4:00 p.m. South County HS
