A Message from Ms. Laxton, Fort Belvoir Upper Principal

Dear Families,

Only one week left of school for the 2023!  Please take a moment to visit the Lost and Found in our cafeteria this week as leftover items will be donated during the winter break.  

As we move into the new year, please think about how you might be able to support our PTO. This group of volunteers work tirelessly to provide resources and activities for our teachers and students.  As a military-connected community, we need to welcome in new families to join the organization as others move on to new adventures.  Please check out their newsletter to see how you can volunteer and learn more about what the PTO is all about!
