Dranesville families, you are making such a wonderful difference for our students by encouraging daily attendance habits. Thank you! Today, on our 157th day of school, 574 of our 583 students in K-6 were present! Every day is another opportunity for our students to learn, grow, and achieve. We are looking forward to celebrating 170 days of learning on Friday, May 17th. |
Our Dranesville Dragons are finishing the year strong! Please be mindful that we will continue to have engaging lessons and activities planned through our last day of school, June 12th. Students will be released at 2:05 on the last day.
Students at Dranesville Elementary are developing Portrait of a Graduate (POG) attributes and learning skills that will help them to succeed in school and in life. The five POG attributes include:
- Communicator
- Collaborator
- Ethical & Global Citizen
- Creative & Critical Thinker
- Goal-Directed & Resilient Individual
Think about the opportunities and challenges you encounter each day and the skills you use to navigate them. We would love to invite you to participate in our Career Fair on Monday, June 10th to share how Portrait of a Graduate attributes are important in your career and to help our students envision the career opportunities and possibilities that are available for them to pursue.
Please sign up to communicate your interest and availability to participate in our Career Fair on Monday, June 10th.
