Hayfield Elementary Students are invited to show their team spirit by wearing their favorite team jersey on Friday, November 13! We look forward to seeing everyone represent their favorite teams! |
Hello HES Families and Community Members,
We are so fortunate to have so many countries/cultures represented in our building. To celebrate the many countries and cultures here at HES, we will have an International Night cultural celebration on Thursday, November 19, 2026, from 5:30 p.m.-7:00 p.m. This event is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate each other and embrace diversity.
Families/students who want to participate will be assigned a table and may:
- Display flags, maps, crafts, photos, tri-fold posters, and other materials representing your country.
- Dress in your country's attire/traditional clothing.
- Share food that represents your culture (food can not be prepared or warmed on site).
Students may also participate in our “Parade of Nations” during the school day and/or the traditional clothing fashion show during the evening event. Students must be registered in advance to participate.
We are extending the sign-in by November 11th, for Families wishing to participate in either the daytime or evening events, please complete the form at this link or the QR code below. We can’t wait to see you there!
We also need volunteers to help make this night a success! We need help with setup before the event and cleanup after the event on November 19. This is a great opportunity for school or scout service hours! Please sign up here if you are able to volunteer.
If you have any questions, please email Ms. Elmardi (hmelmardi@fcps.edu) or Ms. Vargas (mcvargaschav@fcps.edu).

Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is committed to challenging all students through talent development and differentiated instruction. A continuum of Advanced Academic Program (AAP) services is available to students in Grades K-12 and is designed to match services to each student’s unique academic needs.
Identification for Subject-Specific and Part-Time AAP services occurs throughout the school year. Full-Time AAP services have a identification cycle:
-
Spring identification: Any FCPS student in Grades 2-7 may be referred by December 15, 2026.
FCPS uses ability testing as one consideration in the holistic identification process for AAP services.
- All students in Grade 2 take the Naglieri General Ability Tests (NGAT).
- Students in Grades 3-6 who do not have a multi-domain ability test score take the NGAT.
For more information, please contact Avery Rothman, AART, at agrothman@fcps.edu or visit the FCPS Advanced Academic Programs website.
