A Note from the Principal

Dear Daniels Run families,

I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt appreciation for our incredible students, the wonderful PTA, and all the families who have gone above and beyond to make our staff feel truly appreciated this week. Your support and thoughtfulness mean the world to us and contribute significantly to the positive environment at our school.

As we head into the weekend, I want to extend my warmest wishes to all the mothers in our community. I hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day filled with joy and love.

Finally, for my fellow Washington Capitals fans, let's cheer on our team this Saturday—Let’s Go Caps!

 

Warm regards,

Susan Mullen, Principal

Let’s transform summer learning together!

The FCPS Summer Extravaganza is an exciting event that helps families imagine all the possibilities to continue learning over the summer. This is possible by showcasing interactive and immersive activities for children and the power of collaboration across FCPS offices and community partners.

Several departments within Fairfax County Public Schools—including Transportation, the Office of Multilingual Learners (ESOL Services), the Hispanic Educators Association, Career and Transition Services, Get2Green, the Office of Intervention and Prevention Services, and Safety and Security—are collaborating to create a day filled with engaging and educational activities for all FCPS students. In addition, various student school clubs will be in attendance, showcasing their initiatives and contributions. This year, we're excited to introduce the Student Program Marketplace, a new feature where students will present and sell their handmade goods, with proceeds supporting their respective programs. This initiative is supported and led by Educate Fairfax; a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing educational opportunities for Fairfax County Public Schools students

The Summer Extravaganza will feature:

  • Activities for children of all ages that inspire curiosity and a love of learning 
  • Opportunities for adults to learn how to support student well-being and academic success
  • A special section of student-led activities 

We invite you to attend and engage with our FCPS community.
