Principal's Message
Dear Chesterbrook Families,
While our students have been immersed in summer camp at Franklin Sherman, we have been busy at Chesterbrook getting things ready for our opening. Last week I was able to spend our FCPS leadership week with our McLean Pyramid Administrative teams in a week of professional learning and collaboration with great leaders across our division as we all look towards the wonderful year ahead for our students. It was a pleasure to welcome the newly appointed principals joining our McLean pyramid, Kelly Cabezas at Kent Gardens, and Jeremey Ferrara at Haycock. I value the precious time I receive to work with colleagues as we lift up this work to support staff, families and together we help our students thrive.
Most of our new families are registered now and hopefully receiving these messages. Please ask around if you know of a new family in your neighborhood and make sure they are aware of our school supply sales that need to be ordered to receive in time for our opening.
Have a wonderful week and I do hope each of our Chesterbrook families are taking time to build special memories this summer. Wish me luck as I take my youngest to college for his freshman year the end of this week! Each stage of life holds an element of excitement and challenge for children. I have always been one to embrace each milestone as they grow. Please know along with our incredibly dedicated and exceptional staff, I take great pride in helping your children during this chapter and cannot wait to welcome everyone back for the 2026-27 school year.
Sincerely, Stacy Kirkpatrick Principal, Chesterbrook Elementary
