 We loved ending the first week with Madison students visiting us to talk about band and strings classes.
From the Principal's Desk:
It has been a fantastic first week at Louise Archer! We have been so thrilled to see our students back in the building and connecting with each other again. All of our teachers have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to set up a positive, safe learning environment as we start the year.
New and returning students have done an excellent job adapting to our school, which is currently under renovation. We are navigating the paths to the quads for music, to the playground, and all around. There is so much activity happening on the back fields as construction trucks prepare the grounds to begin the new building. I will continue to keep you updated as the work progresses. The good news is all our classrooms will remain in our building this year as the construction occurs.
We will continue to keep you informed on a regular basis through schoolwide communication and emails from your child's teacher. We look forward to seeing you at BTSN on September 8th so you can learn more information about your child's classroom. As a reminder, it is an in-person event this year. If you are unable to attend, teachers will share the slides with you after our Back to School Night. We are excited to work together to make this a positive, productive school year for all of our students!
Sincerely,
Michelle Makrigiorgos

Students Rights and Responsibilities
FCPS’ updated Student Rights & Responsibility booklet is now available online and in the ParentVue section of the Student Information System (SIS). The SR&R booklet explains expectations for student behavior, and adult responses to enhance school safety and to create a fair, equitable, and supportive school environment.
Each year, we ask parents to review, sign, and return the SR&R to their child’s school. In ParentVue, you may now download and digitally sign the SR&R. Every parent/guardian with a ParentVUE account will see the SR&R upon login to ParentVUE until the SR&R acknowledgement has been completed.
Your name in the digital signature box must match the parent/guardian’s first and last name in SIS exactly before the signature will be accepted.
Please take a moment to log into ParentVue in your child’s SIS account to access the SR&R. Signatures are due by September 30, 2022.
Please contact us if you are having difficulty accessing the booklet.
Parent Consent for Select Digital Resources
At Louise Archer Elementary, our teachers will use a variety of digital resources to support student learning. Some of the digital resources your child may use this year will require your consent before they can be used. You can find our school’s list of the resources that require parental consent here: Parent Consent for Digital Resources. Additionally, you can find more information about approved digital resources in FCPS here: FCPS Digital Resources.
