Dear CWES Families,
It feels like we were just starting a new school year, and now we are wrapping up the first quarter! Our SCA has planned an exciting spirit week next week for our students to enjoy. Be sure to check out the flyer above for each day's theme.
Let’s come together to show off our school spirit and enjoy the fun! Please remember that book character costumes should be school-appropriate. Full face masks, inflatable costumes, and any weapons or weapon-like items are not allowed.
Don't miss our Veterans Day breakfast on Friday, November 8th. All military families are welcome! Please RSVP using the link in the calendar above. If you haven't already, please submit your "My Veteran" form to the office. We'll proudly display them in the hall to honor our Veterans.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Leslie Malkowski, Kristi McGeehan, and Mindy Milliron

Return Your Federal Impact Aid Survey
FCPS is asking all families to fill out a Federal Impact Aid Survey. The form is available online in SIS ParentVUE. If you have not already filled out the form online, we will provide paper forms in November. Please be sure to return them by Friday, November 17.
Completing this form for each school-aged child in every household is important, because information from this survey resulted in more than $4 million in funding last year from the U.S. Department of Education. These funds are used to support all Fairfax County public schools and centers.
Please watch this video and visit the Federal Impact Aid Survey page for more information.
