Principal's Message

Dear Eagle View Families,

As we wrap up a successful first quarter, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for your partnership and support. Your involvement is a vital part of what makes our school community thrive, and we couldn't do it without you!

Please remember that November 4th and 5th are student holidays. We look forward to welcoming our students back on November 6th. Additionally, we are excited to honor our veterans and active military members with a special Veteran's Day Celebration on November 12th. If you or a family member have served or are currently serving, we would be honored to have you join us. Kindly fill out this Google form by November 6th to let us know you'll be attending.

Congratulations to our students who achieved Perfect 10 attendance from October 18-31! We will be recognizing these dedicated students on November 6th.

Lastly, want to wish a very Happy Diwali to all who celebrate. May this festival of lights bring joy and prosperity to you and your loved ones.

Thank you again for your continued support and partnership. Together, we make Eagle View a wonderful place to learn and grow.

Warm regards,

KJ An
Principal

Elementary School Language Arts Grading Updates

Our teachers have been hard at work teaching with the new Language Arts curriculum, and we are excited to help all of our students become strong readers and writers! This year we also have new assessments, which is how we check if your student needs extra help with reading and writing, and new Standards of Learning (SOLs).

Because of these changes, we are now teaching all of the Language Arts skills your child needs to know (and checking if they need extra help) throughout the whole school year, instead of different skills each quarter. While these skills will be new to your child in the beginning of the year, the goal is for your child to grow strong in all of their new skills by the end of the year.

This means that when you get your child’s progress report next month, it might look different. Your child’s teacher will give you more information on the new progress reporting and how we’re making sure your child is getting any extra help they might need. You can also find more information on FCPS’ Grading and Reporting webpage.

We will also have new ways for you to help your child practice their reading and writing skills at home. These resources are coming soon!
