Dear Weyanoke Families,
As the school year draws to a close, we wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for the unwavering support you have provided to our students throughout the year.
Your dedication and commitment to your child's education have been nothing short of remarkable. Your active involvement in their learning journey, and collaborative efforts with our dedicated staff have fostered a nurturing environment where our students have thrived academically, emotionally, and socially. Together, we have created an environment where our students feel supported, inspired, and motivated to reach for the stars. Your involvement has reinforced the importance of education and has set an excellent example for your children, teaching them the value of teamwork, dedication, and the pursuit of knowledge.
As you begin summer fun with your families, please know we are immensely grateful for your partnership and look forward to continuing our collaborative efforts in the years to come. Your support is truly the foundation of our school's success, and we are honored to have you as valued members of our school community.
Wishing you and your family a restful and enjoyable summer break.
Warmest regards,
Ms. Usher, Ms. Doyle, and Ms. Alexander
Weyanoke Administrators
 Last Day of School (Early Dismissal)
The last day of the 2022-23 school year is Friday, June 16, and students will be dismissed early. Weyanoke students are dismissed at 1:20 p.m.
Medication Pick Up
The school health room is reminding parents and guardians that all medication stored in the health room must be picked up no later than the student dismissal time on the last day of school. Medication left in the health room after that time will be destroyed. It is school policy that medications must be picked up by the parent or guardian. Medication cannot be sent home with your student.
If your student will be enrolled in a summer program sponsored by Fairfax County Public Schools, the existing medication authorization form(s) may be used for the summer program, but you will need to pick up the medication 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. Please let the health room know if you would like a copy of the form(s).

 Mental Wellness Summer Supports
The FCPS Office of Intervention and Prevention Services will offer virtual Mental Wellness Consultations from June 26 to August 4. Any FCPS parent or secondary student can schedule a 45-minute consultation with a school psychologist or school social worker by phone or videoconference. Consultations will be offered in two ways:
- Directly to parents of students in any grade level. This consultation provides an opportunity for parents to receive guidance on how to support their child’s social, emotional, and academic success. Information about community resources will also be provided.
- Directly to students in middle or high school. This consultation provides an opportunity for middle and high school students to receive guidance and support for concerns related to anxiety, mood, behavior, peer or family interactions, or school transitions and changes. Strategies and tools can also be provided to address academic challenges such as organization and time management.
