Principal's Message
Dear Families,
If you are new to MRES, this is our weekly newsletter where we provide school and PTA information to families. While we still have many days of summer fun and sun remaining (so don’t panic or hang in there - whichever applies), there are a few simple items for your consideration below. We hope you have or will be able to enjoy some down time be it a trip, staycation, time at pools or parks, ice cream etc.
Much peace,
Matthew Chapman, Toni Nauflett, and Kelly Willis
Administrative Team

Do you have a kindergartener who is not yet registered or know someone who does?!?! If so, please email registrar Shelly Koshuta at mmarcumkoshu@fcps.edu or call the office at 703-937-1500. We held our Kindergarten Orientation in May and completed a simple assessment to see what strengths our incoming students are bringing to kindergarten.
