Principal Wheeler's Weekly Update

Good Evening Lafayette Families,

Welcome back to the last nine weeks of the 23-24 school year! It's hard to believe how quickly time flies, but we are ready to make these last few months count. As we gear up for end-of-year testing and events, it's important that we stay focused and give our very best.

As we enter the final quarter, I want to stress the importance of regular attendance and being on time. It's vital for academic success and helps students build crucial skills. Please communicate any absences promptly so we can offer support and ensure your child stays on track (Attendance Notes).

This week is packed with exciting events! Our Shamrock Shuffle has been rescheduled for Wednesday, March 20th, during your child's special area block. We invite you to join us and cheer on our students during this fun event.

Additionally, mark your calendars for Thursday, March 21st, as it's the first round of the FCPS March Madness Basketball tournament. We'll be playing against the JM/Preschool team at James Monroe HS. The game starts at 6:00 pm, and we hope to see you there to support our team.

A quick reminder that the deadline for the FCPS Birthday and Holiday Card is Friday, March 22nd. If you missed the flier that was sent home a few weeks ago, you can view the information in the attached flier (Contest Notification 2024.docx).

As always, we appreciate your continued support. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 540-310-0029.

Have a wonderful evening!

Warm regards,

Mrs. Wheeler
