Congratulations to Micaela Perezous (Senior – Violin) who was selected, from a competitive audition back in September, to represent Potomac Falls High School at Senior Regional Orchestra. Micaela was one of the highest rated violinist amongst 80+ violinists from Loudoun, Prince William, Fauquier, Stafford and Spotsylvania counties. She was placed as Assistant Principal Second Violin and we could not be more proud of Micaela!

Congratulations to Micaela (Senior-Violin), Florence (Senior – Violin), Addie (Freshmen – Violin) and Ian (Sophomore – String Bass) for being selected to participate in the 2025 All-County Orchestra taking place on Friday, January 24th at Woodgrove High School. All-County Orchestra represents the best string players in Loudoun County. Great job to all!

Hunger is an unwelcome guest this holiday season.

For many families in our school community struggling financially, providing daily meals is difficult and a special holiday meal can become a source of worry and stress. Help a local family know the joy of gathering together for a holiday meal. We’re partnering with Food For Neighbors to provide $50 grocery store gift cards to our most vulnerable families. Visit the Food For Neighbors’ website to learn how you can help. Thank you for your generosity.
