Dear Haycock Families,
We enjoyed STEAM night this past week. Many thanks to the generous Haycock PTA for such a great night that included so many fun activities for our students. It was a wonderful family evening that provided another opportunity for us to gather together as a community.
There are lots of exciting events and days coming up in October. October 31 is an optional character dress up day for our students and staff. If your child decides to wear a book character costume that day, please note that face coverings, masks, and any weapon like accessories are not permitted. This is to ensure the safety of all our students and to make sure this day, like all others, is a day of learning.
We are excited to share that all of our 4th grade students will be participating in the Ford's Theatre Lincoln Oratory Residency again this year. This is an amazing opportunity for our students. In the process of working with the teaching artists from Ford's Theater, our 4th graders will learn and practice FCPS Portrait of a Graduate skills and perform at Ford's Theater in the new year.
We hope to see you on Friday morning, October 17 at 9:30 for our October Cougar Connections and Conversations Parent Coffee. We will be talking about ways to keep you child safe online. Sign in at the office before coming to the library.
With appreciation for your partnership,
Liz Beaty, Principal embeaty@fcps.edu
Heather Boyd, AP HABoyd@fcps.edu
Krystal Styles, AP krstyles@fcps.edu
