Trail Update
A huge thank you to the Stony Point Volunteer Fire Company for clearing and defining the path between our campuses! We are extremely thankful to have a strong partnership with our volunteer and Albemarle County Fire and Rescue neighbors.
Make-Up Picture Day
Make-up picture day is Monday November 13th. If your child did not get their picture taken already, they can get it taken on this day. If your child was present for the initial picture day and you weren’t happy with the picture, please send in the envelope so your student can re-take.
ORDERING SQUARE ONE ART
Coming home to you soon will be your child's custom catalog for the Square 1 Art fundraiser. All orders must be placed by Tuesday November 14.
Simply search for your child's art using Art Search, and enter state, school name, and your student's name. Your student's art and code will appear, and you may order! You can upload additional art if you like, using Art Upload!
If you have questions about ordering, contact customer care online or Leslie Greiner at lgreiner@k12albemarle.org.
Thank you for supporting our school!
