A Message from the Admin Team
Dear Little Run Family,
We are excited to share that our 6th graders had a blast on their first field trip to Hemlock. They conquered challenges, built teamwork, and made memories that will last a lifetime. We're so proud of their positive attitudes and achievements.
Join us on Tuesday, October 1, at Back to School Night to connect with your child's teachers and learn about their journey thus far and what's to come.
This is a reminder that there's no school on Thursday and Friday this week.
Finally, get ready for something new and exciting! On Tuesday, we're launching our very first house system at Little Run. All students and staff will be sorted into houses, creating opportunities for cross-grade level connections, and a strong sense of belonging. Wear red or your Little Run spirit wear!
Thank you for your continued support. We can't wait to see you all on Tuesday at Back to School Night!
Sincerely,
Christie Yarn, Principal
Lesley Hassen, Assistant Principal

Please make sure to listen to a message from our FCPS School Board members:
Little Run is Launching Our First Ever House System!! Calling All Students and Staff!!
SCA Spirit Day - October 2 - Grade Level Colors
The Little Run Way in Specials
Are you looking for a topic to engage in at the dinner table this weekend? Or on the drive to your next destination? Ask your child about The Little Run Way in SPECIALS!
Consider asking your child(ren) one or more of the following questions:
- What does it look and sound like to be respectful while learning in specials (music, art, P.E., FLES, library, etc.)?
- How do you show responsibility when you are in specials with your classmates?
- What does it mean to be ready while participating in specials?

Rosh Hashanah begins at sundown on Wednesday, October 2. That day is an evening-only observance day. Important events will not be held after school.
Thursday, October 3, is a holiday for all FCPS staff. Schools and offices will be closed.

🎤 Our Schools, Our Future: Register Today for a Community Conversation!
Superintendent Dr. Michelle Reid will host a series of Community Conversations this fall. She invites you to share your thoughts and ask questions. Click the dates below to register for any of the following conversations:
Events take place from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Childcare and language interpretation services will be provided.
✨ The 2023-30 Strategic Plan — Goal 4: Equitable Access to Opportunities
FCPS’ 2023-30 Strategic Plan sets five main goals to create positive change in the division. These goals show where we should focus our attention and will help us align our efforts.
The fourth goal ensures all students have the same access to opportunities, no matter what school they attend. This includes academics and other programs that inspire and engage students and allow them to explore their passions and talents. See how Goal 4 is being put into practice.
🗓️ Attendance Tip: Scheduling Family Trips or Events
Good attendance is an important life skill that will help students succeed in school and beyond.
When planning trips or family events, refer to the FCPS calendar and try to use weekends and school holidays. Every day of learning is a day toward success. Keep in mind that absences add up quickly. Students absent 10% of the school year (or just two days per month) are considered chronically absent.
When possible, schedule appointments for your child outside of school hours. If your child needs to miss school because of an illness or another reason, you must report the absence.
Watch this video with tips on understanding our school calendar and visit our Attendance webpage for additional information. Attend today, achieve tomorrow!
Gun Safety and Safe Gun Storage
Providing students and staff with a safe educational environment remains our priority. Sadly, gun violence continues to impact schools and communities across our nation.
In FCPS, lessons on gun safety are built into our curriculum. It is critical that parents and guardians talk to their children about the importance of gun safety and safe gun storage in their homes, and in any home they may visit.
The FCPS website has gun safety resources as well as detailed information about safety and security practices at schools. See Dr. Reid’s recent letter to the community for more resources.
Safely Store Firearms and Medications
The Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board has a limited supply of free locking medication boxes and trigger locks that fit a wide variety of firearms. Visit the Lock and Talk website to learn more.
