Summer Update from CES!
Dear Columbia friends and families,
Happy August! We are excitedly preparing for a great opening to the 2024-2025 school year here at Columbia Elementary School. Early next week, we will be mailing home our official welcome letter to families. The letter will contain important information, including arrival and dismissal procedures. Please read the letter carefully when it arrives and don't hesitate to reach out to the school via phone at 703-916-2500 or by email at mastudillo1@fcps.edu.
Please see below for a few timely announcements and some important dates to mark on your calendar.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

My School Bucks!
Did you know that Columbia Elementary School will be exclusively using MySchoolBucks.com as a payment method for parents to use this upcoming school year? Minimizing the amount of cash in hand for young students is the prudent thing to do, and it's never been easier to make payments online using this website.
Using the website below, you'll be able to pay for lunch money, instrument rentals, library fees, field trip money, etc. Teachers will share more information and details soon, but if you don't have an account already, you can sign up and learn more here:

School Supplies
For those of you who like to plan in advance, please take a moment to visit our school's website to see school supply lists for your student. Teachers will also be reaching out to families in a few short weeks with more information.
