Dear CWES families,
We had a fantastic week of learning at CWES! It is hard to believe we are almost halfway through the year! Next week CWES will be hosting a food drive organized by our SCA. Students can turn in all items in their classroom.
We have a lot of lost and found items we are hoping can be claimed (photo below). Items have been moved to the main lobby. Please ask your student to check the lost and found. Parents are welcome to come and check it as well for any missing items. Anything that hasn't been claimed by January 27th will be donated.
Celebrate the beginning of 3rd quarter with CWES Color Week!
Monday, January 30- Penguin Day (wear black and white)
Tuesday, January 31- Teacher’s Favorite Color (wear your teacher’s favorite color)
Wednesday, February 1- Rainbow Day (wear as many colors as you can)
Thursday, February 2- Neon Day (wear your brightest highlighter colors)
Friday, February 3- Cougar Friday (wear green and yellow)
Have a wonderful weekend!

The Rising 7th Grade Orientation is for current 6th grade students who will be attending Frost in the 23-24 school year and their parents. This will take place virtually on January 26th at 6:30 PM. During this event you will hear from administration and school counselors who will provide an overview of Frost Middle School, course selection opportunities and the selection process. The link for this event will be sent in January. A recording of the event will be available for those who cannot attend on our Frost Student Services website here.
Please submit questions you may have about transitioning to 7th Grade at Frost Middle School. We will do our best to incorporate as many answers to your questions during the orientation. Please use this link to submit questions.
We will also be having the Frost Family Festival (in-person) on February 9th beginning at 5:30 PM. This is a great opportunity to get a school tour and visit elective classes to help confirm desired course selections. More information to come!

As you have read from the FCPS announcements, the inclement weather procedures for FCPS will remain the same as last year. The first five inclement weather days will be traditional “snow days” with no school activities. After those five days, we will have unscheduled virtual learning days, whenever possible, to maintain the continuity of learning. Virtual learning on these days will be synchronous/live instruction.
On those days, teachers will have students access a Zoom link from their class Schoology site. We will be starting the day at 10:30. The full schedule will be shared after winter break. All students will have had a practice with their teachers so that all students know how to access the Zoom and what behaviors are expected as to attendance and working.
Please consider bookmarking FCPS' Weather Cancellation Procedures to stay informed in case of winter weather or other emergency situations.
FCPS is dedicated to providing parents and community members with the most accurate and up-to-date information on youth substance use, prevention, addiction, interventions and available supports. Please join us and our partners from the Fairfax County Police Department and Community Services Board as we discuss these topics as well as the ongoing opioid crisis. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of:
- Alcohol, nicotine, cannabis, and opioid.
- List what you can do as a caregiver.
- How to identify and connect with community resources.
On Tuesday, January 17th from 6-8pm at Woodson HS in Cavalier Hall, FCPS's Student Safety & Wellness Office is presenting an ADULTS ONLY program, "Preparing Families for Difficult Conversations about Alcohol Drugs."
If you are unable to attend this in-person event, a similar virtual presentation will take place on Wednesday, February 15th. Additional information on how to access the virtual presentation will be shared closer to the event.
For additional information, please contact the Student Safety and Wellness Office at 571-423-4270.
