Medication Pickup
All medication stored in the health room must be picked up by a parent/guardian no later than 2:05pm on June 16. Our school health aide is available daily between 9am-1:30pm and 2:30pm-4:00pm. Medication left in the health room after that time will be discarded. It is FCPS policy that medications must be picked up by an adult, preferably the parent or the guardian; it cannot be sent home with your student.
Band & Strings at SEES in 2023-2024
In FCPS, all students in Grades 4-6 grade students have the opportunity to play a strings instrument and all students in Grades 5-6 have the opportunity to play a band or strings instrument. Band and Strings instruction will occur once a week for the entire school year, your child will not miss any academic subjects to attend either of these classes. Students who do not choose band or strings will be placed in an extra weekly class of General Music.
In order to help us plan our schedule, we need you and your child to let us know their musical intentions for next year. ALL students, regardless if they choose band, strings, or “no instrument” need to return the forms in today’s Friday folder no later than Monday, June 5th. Even if Band or Strings currently is a “maybe” for next year, please register them for those options now. To save time, you can also choose to complete it online via this link! https://forms.gle/wGqQAbUvcwvwyrdg9
If you have any questions, you can contact Mr. Jakes, band director at dajakes@fcps.edu or Mr. Smith, strings director at spsmith3@fcps.edu. We are happy to help!
