 Students are creating memories during the first week of school!
Dear CWES Families,
What a fantastic first week of school we had! It is so wonderful to have our students back. Students are busy learning routines and building relationships with their teachers and making new friends.
We are thrilled to see the excitement and enthusiasm in our students as they embark on this new academic year. We appreciate the support of our parents and guardians and look forward to a year filled with growth, learning, and success.
Please join us for Back to School Night on Thursday, September 5th. We will host a welcome session in the gym, our teachers will be presenting sessions, you can meet our specialists, and hear important FCPS information on what to expect this school year. Immediately following the second session, please join us for our first PTA meeting of the year. There will be two sessions to allow parents to attend multiple classrooms if needed. Session 2 will be a repeat of Session 1. We look forward to seeing you!
6:00-6:20PM - Meet our Admin and Specialist team, hear an overview in the gym
6:30-6:55PM - Session 1
7:00-7:25 PM - Session 2 (will be a repeat of session 1)

Have a wonderful weekend,
