Back to School Nights
We are looking forward to seeing you at Back to School Nights next week! Our teachers will be sharing their presentation via email to all parents prior to the event so all parents have the information if they are not able to attend in person.
Back to School Sessions are for parents only. We do not have daycare available.

OES advanced academic resource teachers (AARTs), Ellen Donnelly and Christine Neubauer, will present information to parents about the continuum of advanced academic program services.
If you are interested in learning about the AAP program, please join us. The session will cover the referral, screening, and identification processes.

Great opportunity for students to join a club at OES!

Students Are Learning Every Day
As you plan upcoming trips and other family events, please remember the importance of sending your child to school every day. Review the FCPS School Year Calendar and try to plan any time away during long breaks from school.
Children who show up for school regularly develop fundamental reading and math skills while building a habit of good attendance that will carry them into college and careers. Research shows that children who were chronically absent (missing 18 days or more) in kindergarten and first grade were far less likely to read proficiently at the end of third grade.
Read more about how families can help form good attendance habits.
