Dear Springfield Estates Families,
As we head into our final week of school, I want to take a moment to celebrate a few exciting highlights and share some important reminders.
Our students have truly soared this year. Together, they solved an incredible 969,121 puzzles on ST Math! Even more impressive, 75% of our students (405 out of 542) reached the 1,000-puzzle milestone. A special shoutout to Ms. Rice, Ms. Bognar, Ms. Staples, and Ms. Wines' classes, where 100% of students met the challenge—what an outstanding achievement!
Next week, we look forward to celebrating our 6th grade students as they wrap up their elementary journey. Our 6th Grade Promotion Ceremony will take place on the field this Tuesday, June 10. It’s always a special moment to recognize their growth and wish them well as they transition to middle school.
Please remember that the last day of school is Tuesday, June 11, and students will be dismissed two hours early.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership throughout this year. Let’s finish strong!
Warmly,
April Martin, Proud Principal and Kassandra Flading, Assistant Principal

🩹Required Immunizations for Rising 7th Graders
Additional immunizations are required for students entering 7th grade:
- All students entering 7th grade are required to receive one dose of each of the following immunizations before the beginning of school: Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis booster (Tdap), Meningococcal vaccine (MenACWY), and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine.
- To meet the Tdap requirement, the vaccination must be administered at age seven or older.
- To meet the MenACWY requirement, the vaccination must be administered at age 10 or older.
- As a parent/guardian, you may decide not to have your child receive the HPV vaccination. If that is the case, the school does not require documentation.
Please consider getting your child’s immunizations early so that they can attend school in the fall. Summer is a busy time for families and health care providers. As long as your child meets the age requirements listed above, they can be immunized at any time.
Local immunization clinics and additional resources are available on the FCPS Immunization Resources webpage and from the Fairfax County Health Department.
📖Language Arts Summer Learning: Magazines, Weekly Plans, Activities, and More
We will be sending students home with two Benchmark magazines to help them practice their reading and writing skills during the summer. You will also receive a letter from our school with weekly learning plans and activities.
Find more ways to support your child's literacy skills on FCPS’ Summer Learning Resources webpage. All of these activities are optional, but we encourage families to help their students practice reading and writing during summer break, so that they can start strong next school year.
