Every student has the potential to deeply understand and truly love math. This belief helps ST Math become a powerful tool that students are using at Dranesville Elementary School. Our students are developing their conceptual mathematical knowledge through challenging puzzles and non-routine problem solving. Students are able to access ST Math at school and home through Clever.

Native American Heritage Month is a time to celebrate rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories and to acknowledge the important contributions of Native people. It is also a time to raise a general awareness about the unique challenges Native people have faced both historically and in the present, and the ways in which tribal citizens have worked to conquer these challenges.
While Día de los Muertos is largely celebrated in Mexico and Latin America, it also coincides with All Saints Day (November 1) and All Souls Day (November 2). These days are celebrated by Catholics, Anglicans, and some Protestants worldwide to honor those who have died and gone to heaven (All Saints Day) and those who may still be in purgatory (All Souls Day).
Learn more about the heritage months, celebrations, and traditions celebrated in FCPS.
