Dear Parents,
This week has been full of end of year celebrations and musical performances. Our Kindergarten cubs entertained us with their sweet voices during their grade level performance this week. We also had the pleasure of having our 4th grade orchestra students perform for parents on Wednesday evening and our 4th-6th grade band students perform on Thursday evening. So much to celebrate!
Sincerely,
Amy Briggs

FCPS School Year Calendar for 2023-24
Later this month, you will begin receiving your child’s spring assessment results. If you aren’t sure what assessments your child took this year, view this list of tests by grade level on FCPS’ website. How the results are delivered depends on the test. Scores will be posted in SIS ParentVUE, or sent by mail or from Wolftrap or testing organization. Learn what to expect regarding assessment reporting practices and timelines. Visit FCPS’ website for additional information about student assessments, including what each assessment is testing for and how to interpret the test results.
 Order Your School Supplies
Parents, it's time to buy your 1st Day School Supplies. I know it seems early, but before you know it, summer will be here. It's important you order your supplies before it's too late or supplies run out. Start the school year off with the exact supplies your teacher requested, and give your child the confidence they need to conquer next year! The deadline to order is July 1, 2024!
LAST CALL FOR LOST & FOUND ITEMS
All items not claimed by Friday, June 7th will be donated!
Please scroll through the Lost and Found Website to find your child's missing coats, jackets, hoodies, gloves, hats or sweaters! There are literally hundreds of items, all without names, and we're sure you'd like these back home where they belong! We've added brand and sizing info to the photos to help parents recognize items. The website provides instructions on what to do if you see your child's items in the linked PDF photos. Looking for name tags? The Spring Hill PTO has partnered with Mabel's Labels to make it easy to label your child's items. PLUS, purchase Mabel's Labels and the PTO will receive a portion of the proceeds. It's win-win - your child's items don't stay lost and you're supporting the PTO! Go ahead...purchase now for camp, the pool, and of course back-to-school (when those cool mornings and warm afternoons make the lost and found so popular). To ensure that our PTO gets credit for your label purchases, click the Support a Fundraiser Link on the Mabel's Labels Home Page and enter "Spring Hill Elementary School PTO" in the search bar. You can also enter "Spring Hill Elementary School PTO" at checkout in the Support a Fundraiser bar. Happy labelling and thank you for helping us get all of the lost & found items back to their rightful owners!
The school health room is reminding parents and guardians that all medication stored in the health room must be picked up no later than the student dismissal time on the last day of school. Medication left in the health room after that time will be destroyed. It is school policy that medications must be picked up by the parent or guardian. Medication cannot be sent home with your student. All information regarding medication can be found here.
