January 26 - Family Newsletter
Rolling Valley Families,
Thank you to everyone who shared pictures from the snow days! It's great seeing the students excited and playing in the snow! Before the snow melted we had a few snowy “Rockin’ Robin” figures around the playground. This week marks the end of the 2nd Quarter. Report Cards will be sent home on Friday, February 2nd.
Enjoy the warm weather and we look forward to seeing all the students on Monday!

Calendar Update for March 5 Presidential Primary
The Fairfax Board of Elections has requested schools to close on Tuesday, March 5, to accommodate the administration of the 2024 presidential primary election.
As a result, March 5 will be a school holiday for students and a virtual School Planning Day. As outlined in Regulation 4421, School Planning Days are directed by school-based administrators in order to devote time to school improvement efforts, including collaboration around data, common assessments, and responsive instruction. Central offices and school offices will remain open.
