News from our Admin Team
Happy July Roos!
Welcome LATE July! We are now almost 4 weeks away from the start of school. See below for some new pictures of our amazing school. Some of the information below is the same as the last update sent in early July and there are some updates.
Supply Lists can be found at this link: https://www.fcps.org/backtoschool/school-supply-lists
We have tried to supply some items at the school level to reduce costs to families.
School Communications: When FCPS sends you an email to "opt in" to school messenger, please do so! This will be the primary form of communication from SRES. This site will replace One Call and Find out First. We will continue to have access to Find Out First until July 30th and will also put this Smore newsletter on our website. We are hearing you will get a text message on July 29th for this new communication platform.
Back to School Night and Open House:
Open House: Monday, August 19th! This will be an opportunity to visit between the hours of 3:00-4:00 to see your classroom, meet the teacher, and drop off any supplies. No formal presenation will occur. This is a drop in event only.
Back to School Night: Thursday, August 29th from 6:00-7:15. This is a more formal presentation by your child's teacher(s) on expectations, procedures, and schedules. A more detailed schedule of sessions will be sent later in the summer.
Grades 3-5: In these grades, your child will have a homeroom teacher. Your child MAY then move to another teacher for ELA and/or math.
**NEW** It's our understanding when your child in grades 3-5 gets their classroom assignment email from Schoology, it will only have their homeroom teacher. If your child will be in grades 3-5 they will find out who their ELA/Math teacher is ( if moving) during open house.This will allow you to visit those teachers classroom as well. If you can not attend the open house, teachers will be sending emails before school starts to students in their classes letting you know who to contact for that subject area.
Pre-K ( Traditional and Self-Contained) starts the year with home visits and staggered start will begin on August 26th. More information will be coming later in the summer.
Kindergarten: As in years past, Kindergarten will have a staggered start. This means your K student will be assigned either the 21st, 22nd, or 23rd to start school. They will only attend one day that week and all students will come together on Monday, Auguts 26th. Letters will emailed the week of August 5th letting you know of your child's staggered start date.
How will I know who my child's teacher will be?
