We were thrilled to have the Virginia Civilian Aide to the Secretary of the Army, Ms. Nancy Jean-Louis, visit our school. It was an honor to showcase the incredible work being done at Fort Belvoir Primary Elementary. During her visit, Ms. Jean-Louis had the opportunity to witness the exciting and innovative activities taking place throughout our building. She was particularly impressed by the high level of student engagement across various classrooms.

Our students were eager to share what they are learning in literacy, and their enthusiasm left a lasting impression on Ms. Jean-Louis. She took time to interact with them, hearing directly from the students about their projects, discoveries, and achievements. It was a wonderful experience that highlighted the dedication of both our students and staff to fostering a dynamic and enriching educational environment. She intends to share her experience with the Secretary of Army and others on her team.

We are thrilled to share that our award-winning First Friends Ambassadors have officially begun welcoming students to Fort Belvoir Primary Elementary School! This dedicated group of students play a vital role in creating a warm and inclusive environment by engaging with students new to our school during lunchtime. They connect with new students while playing board games and converse during lunch. This opportunity allows them to foster strong connections and everlasting friendships right from the start.

We are proud to announce that this program has been recognized by the Virginia Purple Star Committee for its outstanding contribution to the Fort Belvoir Primary school community. As many of our students come from military families, it is imperative for them to feel a sense of belonging. The First Friends Ambassadors exemplify our commitment to supporting all students as they transition into our school, ensuring that everyone feels welcomed and valued.
