Dear CWES Families,
Next week February 5-9 is National School Counseling Week and highlights the tremendous impact school counselors have in helping students achieve academic success and planning for a career. Our school counselors, Becca Wilson and Kristen Mihalick, embody the spirit of compassion, guidance, and support. Their commitment to helping students navigate the challenges of academic, personal, and social growth is truly commendable. They go above and beyond to create a nurturing environment where our students can thrive.
School counselors work with students in a variety of different capacities, whether it is through classroom lessons, group sessions, or individual counseling. Learn more about the role of school counselors in FCPS.
We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you! As part of our ongoing commitment to fostering a positive and respectful learning environment, we are rolling out a new behavior matrix called PAWS, Cougars can Persevere, Accept responsibility, Work together, Show respect. PAWS represent our core values and expectations for student behavior across all areas of the school. Over the next few weeks we will share the expectations of each area, and encourage you to engage in conversations with your children at home. Together, we can reinforce these values and empower our students to become responsible, respectful, and collaborative members of our community.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Leslie Malkowski, Mindy Milliron, and Kristi McGeehan
CWES Administrative Team

Want to know if your child's bus is on schedule or where the bus is? Here Comes the Bus® is an easy-to-use website and app that enables parents to see the location of their child’s school bus — almost in real time — on a smartphone, tablet, or personal computer.
Parents can track multiple buses if their children don’t all ride the same bus; know exactly when children arrive at school or the bus stop; and receive customized text and/or email notifications about bus locations, schedule changes, or delays.
To get started, download the app from the Apple iOS or Android app store. Check out the Here Comes the Bus and Frequently Asked Questions webpages for more information.
Already using the Here Comes the Bus app? Send your feedback to HCTB@fcps.edu.
Note: eNotify text messaging will continue to be used for reporting bus delays and bus incidents.
