Terra Centre Families,
There has been so much to celebrate this past week! Our PTA Fun Fair was a huge hit and it was wonderful to see so many families come by to support Terra Centre. Our PTA and volunteers truly made this an enjoyable event.
We started Teacher Appreciation Week by attending the FCPS SEPTA Awards on Saturday evening and our very own building supervisor, Mr. Au, won the FCPS SEPTA Support Staff award and Ms. Grove won the FCPS SEPTA Preschool Special Educator of the Year award. Additionally, the following staff were nominated and recognized at the ceremony:
Ms. Allan and Mrs. Williams-General Education Teacher
Ms. Lowe, Elementary Special Education Teacher
Ms. Lowery, Instructional Support Personnel
Congratulations to all our nominees and award winners!
Our Staff Appreciation Week was made much sweeter by our PTA providing Insomnia cookies to staff on Wednesday and on Friday our Kindergarten families provided a terrific luncheon and a full restock of our teachers' lounge with everything from coffee to popcorn. The support we receive from our families is second to none and our staff enjoyed being showered with tokens of gratitude all week long.
Please see below for reminders, updates, and special events.

Optional Parent Input for 2023-2024 school year
As we prepare for the 2023-2024 school year, our school staff will work collaboratively to best place each child. The purpose of the form is for parents to provide additional information about their child. This form is not for the purpose of requesting specific teachers. Additionally, some placements are made due to specific programming needs and friend requests may not be able to be honored. The DEADLINE for current Terra Centre Families is Friday, May 26, 2023.
