Dear Cub Run Families, 

It’s hard to believe that today wrapped up the 22/23 school year! This week was filled with many fond Cub Run traditions, including the spring Band Concert, Field Day, the Sixth Grade Promotion ceremony, and end-of-year class celebrations. On top of that, our 4th graders visited with a NASA astronaut, who is an FCPS alum!

Emotions were high today with lots of hugs and farewells. We are grateful for the time we have spent with your students and look forward to seeing them again in August. For those families moving on, we wish you all the best and hope you'll be able to visit Cub Run in the future! 

Warm regards,

Natalie Lorenzi

Principal
