Mrs. Badia loved visiting Ms. Harrison’s music class and listening to our 4th graders play their recorders flawlessly. Their focus and confidence were impressive, and the joy of music filled the room! |
Mr. Dow, our High Impact Tutor, is doing fantastic work supporting our students in both literacy and math. Here he is with a small literacy group, providing targeted support that is helping students build confidence and strengthen their reading skills. His dedication and positive relationships are making a meaningful difference for our students. |

 The Family Engagement Committee is sponsoring the Student-Parent Lunch Day on Friday, February 6, 2026. Parents are invited to have the lunch with their student during their lunch time. This event is part of increasing family engagement at ATES and providing parents an opportunity to come to the school. The price for lunch is $5.25 for all guests (Free of charge for all students in Annandale Terrace). Please complete this survey (https://forms.gle/vzb8BMaaLT9N9T5D7) if you are planning to attend.
From February 18 to March 19, 2026, a Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) waiver allows students fasting during the school day to request take-home meal kits. These kits include a complete school breakfast and lunch to be eaten after the school day ends.
Important Meal Kit Information:
- Kits are charged based on a student’s meal status (Free, Reduced, or Paid).
- Students may claim one breakfast and one lunch kit per day.
- Students who eat a meal at school during the day are not eligible for a take-home kit on the same day.
- Kits are distributed at the end of the school day. Students must pick up their own kits; adults are not permitted to collect them.
Parents or guardians must submit a weekly request form via the FCPS FNS website by the deadlines:
-
February 11, 2026 for week of February 18, 2026
-
February 16, 2026 for the week of February 23, 2026
-
February 23, 2026 for the week of March 2, 2026
-
March 2, 2026 for the week of March 9, 2026
-
March 9, 2026 for the week of March 16, 2026
Forms must be submitted on time to receive meal kits for the following week.
