Steam Fair 2

May 16, 2025

From the Principal’s Pen

Dear Laurel Hill Families,

A huge THANK YOU to our art department, Ms. Rickards and Mr. Z., our science team, led by Mr. Cookson, our PTA and volunteers for an amazing STEAM night. The pictures above is just a snippet of the fun-filled night! We appreciate all who came out to support the event.

Student attendance at school is important all year long, up to the last day of school. Attendance has an effect on student performance and on school accreditation. See how to:

  • Check your child’s attendance record.
  • Help your student stay engaged at school.
  • Report future absences.
  • Understand the FCPS school calendar.

Please be reminded that your input for class placement is appreciated. The link to the class placement questionnaire for the 2025-2026 school year can be accessed here. Access will be given through May 30.

Last call for CTE summer programs (Tuition Free Space). Please see the flyer below.

Sincerely,

Janice Dalton, Principal

Thmeaka Traylor, Assistant Principal

Zartakshtai Babai, Acting Assistant Principal
