Message from Ms. Kearns
I enjoyed the opportunity to share my vision for Bruin Nation at this week's PTSA general membership meeting. I look forward to continuing the collaboration with the PTSA, and other parent groups, as we move ahead.
Our Seniors start their end-of-year activities next Tuesday. It is hard to believe graduation is near. We will miss having them fill the halls and we look forward to celebrating them.
I wish everyone a wonderful Memorial Day holiday.
Go Bruins!
Lindsey Kearns

Update From the Library
It’s that time of year for students to return to the school library any Lake Braddock library books they still have checked out from this school year.
A labeled return cart stands outside the library, as well as a return bin immediately inside the library door. If a book cannot be found, please report to a librarian. There are no fines or fees – we just want to round up our books at the end of the school year to put back on our library shelves!
Any questions, please contact the library staff at lbsslibrary@fcps.edu.
Family Liaison Survey
Families, thank you for those who already completed the Family Liaison Survey, if you haven’t done it, please take a moment to complete this brief survey, we will use your feedback to plan events that more closely fit your interests.

Thank you in advance for your time and help,
From the Health Room
All medication stored in the health room must be picked up by a parent or guardian no later than student dismissal time on the last day of school. Medication left in the health room after that time will be destroyed per policy. Prescription medication, including EpiPens and inhalers, must be picked up by a parent and cannot be sent home with your student. To ensure an orderly process, please schedule your pickup appointment today!

If your student will be enrolled in a summer program sponsored by FCPS, the existing medication authorization form(s) may be used for the summer program, but you will need to pick-up the medication before student dismissal time on the last day of school and deliver the medication and completed forms to the summer learning site on the first day of the summer program. If you have any questions, please contact the Health Room at 703-426-1010.

Student Test Results Coming Soon
Starting in late May, caregivers will receive reports for assessments their students completed this spring. Not sure what assessments your student took this year? A list of tests by grade level is available. Scores will be delivered in SIS ParentVUE, by mail, or from the school or testing organization. Learn what to expect regarding assessment reporting practices and timelines.
Some families will also receive a Virginia’s Visualization and Analytics Solution (VVAAS) Student Assessment Summary report with historical Standards of Learning (SOL) test results from 2015-2022.
Go online or contact your student's school for additional information about student assessments.
