Hello amazing Wolftrap families!
It may be cold and snowy outside, but our Food For Others closet needs help! Volunteers are needed to help pick up the donated food from the cafeteria on Fridays and drop-off at Food For Others at 2938 Prosperity Ave., Fairfax, VA 22031. This food is desperately needed in our community.
Please visit the sign-up genius to see available dates in January, and the rest of the year.
For more information, contact mzscalise@gmail.com. Thank you for making a difference!
Any first place winners at Wolftrap automatically had their submissions sent on to compete at the Fairfax County level. There, they competed with all other first place winners from participating schools in the county. There were many schools to contend with, but two Wolftrap students have won first place and will be continuing on to the Virginia state PTA competition!

Each year in the Wolftrap Yearbook, sixth grade parents are able to submit a short message to their student(s). The message should be 2-3 sentences, with a 300-character limit to ensure space for all.
Please submit your message by completing all questions in this form.
If you have any questions, please contact the Yearbook Team at yearbook@wolftrappta.org. Deadline is February 18th.
Back by popular demand, please join the Wolftrap Community for Skate Night at SkateQuest Reston, 1800 Michael Faraday Ct, Reston, VA 20190, on Friday, March 21st, from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m.
This is a fun event to bring the Wolftrap Community together and everyone is encouraged to come and skate. No minimum skating ability is required and everyone is welcome! There will be various music to appeal to all Wolftrap attendees, students, teachers and parents alike!
Tickets are $12 per person before the event. The price goes up to $15 cash / $17 credit per person at the door. Tickets include skate pass, skate rentals and a glow stick. Additional glowsticks can be purchased before the event for $3 per bundle of 10, or for $5 at the event. The snack bar will be open for food and drink purchases.
This is not a drop off event, please indicate an adult that will be present and responsible for your child during Skate Night in case of an emergency.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO VOLUNTEER?
The committee would LOVE your help, primarily on the night of the event, checking folks in. To lend a hand, please email skatenight@wolftrappta.org.
