Quarter Countdown: Finish Strong and Celebrate Success!

Next week marks the final push as we close out the first quarter! We encourage all students to take full advantage of the opportunities available to review work and improve grades. Our primary goal is to ensure you have the additional access and supports needed to be successful.

Please remind your student to make a plan to utilize these resources:

Saturday School (available this Saturday, 9:00-12:00)
Assessment Center (on Wednesday and Saturday for test make-ups; must be pre-arranged with the teacher)
Lion Time (Tuesday and Thursday next week)
Learning Lounge (after school on late bus Wednesday)
Varsity Tutors (accessible through Schoology)

Community and Athletic Highlights

This week was a wonderful celebration of our community spirit!

The Fairfax Pyramid Choir Concert was a true highlight. It is always so exciting to invite our future Lions onto campus, and the talent of our children is undeniable. The night culminated with elementary, middle, and high school students singing together, and it simply brought so much JOY.

On the athletic front, the Cross Country team ran the trails of Burke lake in their district final, our Cheer Team displayed their PAWSome skills this week at the district cheer competition, and we are thrilled to be supporting our Field Hockey team as they compete for the district championship TONIGHT!

Thank you for your ongoing partnership as we finish the quarter strong. Go Lions!
