Good Afternoon Fox Mill Families,
It has been a wonderful week at school, and we are especially grateful for the recent rain. While we don’t always celebrate rainy weather, this time it helped wash away much of the snow and ice, allowing us to look forward to returning to our normal outdoor recess routines in the coming week.
This week also marked the beginning of Ramadan. As an inclusive school community, we recognize that some of our students and families are observing this important and sacred time. We are mindful of their needs and are committed to supporting them with understanding, respect, and care throughout this month.
Our third graders visited the Natural History Museum, where the exhibits connected perfectly to their science unit on animal adaptation and their social studies unit on Ancient Egypt. We are grateful to our dedicated chaperones who joined our teachers and helped make this meaningful learning experience possible.
We look forward to seeing you at the Sneaker Ball Dance Party tonight from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM! Please remember that students must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and must remain present for the entire duration of the dance. Show your usual Fox Mill spirit and support, and let’s have a ball! See you tonight!
A FEW UPDATES
New Visitor Management System We are excited to announce that our school is now using the new Raptor Visitor Management System (VMS). This upgrade is part of our school’s and FCPS’ ongoing commitment to enhancing school safety and streamlining the process for visitors at our school. The VMS ensures that no visitor is on the sex offender registry.
For most visitors, the user experience will be the same when you check-in at the front office. But now there is also an app, which can make check-in’s even faster at school. Visitors who choose to download the RaptorSafe App and create a Raptor Passport can pre-verify their information before they get to school. The app will give you a QR code you can use when you check in at school. If you have questions or need assistance with the new system, please contact our front office. Thank you for your partnership in keeping our schools safe!
Have a wonderful weekend.
