1. A Note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Community,

Memorial Day weekend often is the first marker of a highly anticipated summer. It is also a time to remember those who were lost in our nation's wars. I wish all of our Charger families a wonderful long weekend.

Here are a few highlights of connections in our Charger community this week:

Wellness Fair: On Wednesday of this week we hosted our first schoolwide Wellness Fair during Learning Seminar/Charger Time. All students and staff had many opportunities to take a break, connect with one another, and focus on self care. Students engaged in outdoor activities such as pickle ball, soccer, corn hole, and spike ball or walking the track. Art activities included sun printing, bracelet and slime making and coloring. Many students chose to be outside and gather with friends while listening to music. We have received rave reviews from students and staff on this event and look forward to making it a more frequent part of our schedule next school year to continue to promote health and wellness.

Students:

Senior Sunset BBQ was a HUGE success earlier this week. Members of our Class of 2023 enjoyed dinner, outdoor games, and just being together to celebrate the end of their time at Chantilly. We had a great turnout and are very grateful to all the staff and parent volunteers who supported the event.
Congratulations to our Chantilly Choirs who presented an outstanding Spring Pops Concert this week. I continue to be in awe of the talent and confidence displayed by so many of our students and staff. Our choirs shared a variety of pop hits and classic songs, as well as many solos and group performances to highlight their musical growth throughout this year.
Our Math Club is hosting a math competition for students in grades 4-8 tonight, May 26. It was a pleasure visiting with our amazing leaders who love sharing their passion and talents in the area of mathematics and hear their ideas for fostering a love of math in others.

Staff:

Our staff is working together to plan for the 23-24 school year, which is truly right around the corner. We are focused on enhancing faculty collaboration, refreshing schoolwide expectations, and examining our instructional and grading practices. I am grateful for the leadership of our Instructional Council and appreciate learning alongside of them daily.
Check out the great article about Chantilly Teacher Luc Nguyen in FCPS news below.

Community:

It was my honor to partner with our staff and community members including our military service academies and ROTC programs, non and for-profit businesses to recognize and award scholarships and highlight honor graduates of the Class of 2023 during Convocation.

Be sure to take a look at our last installment for Student Successes below!

I am looking forward to making many more Charger Connections in the coming weeks! I hope to see you at CHS very soon.

As always, please feel free to reach out to me with observations, suggestions, questions and celebrations. You connect with me through e-mail ([email protected]), call 703-222-8100, or through the form located here.

Mr. Luc Nguyen

Chantilly Teacher Realizes Dream

Mr. Luc Nguyen knew in kindergarten that he wanted to become a teacher. Although he applied to districts across Northern Virginia, there was something about Chantilly High School and FCPS that felt like the right fit. Read more about Luc’s journey and background on the Employee Blog. While you’re there, share with us what brought you to FCPS.

2. Students Leaving FCPS Should Download Their Files

When students leave FCPS, their FCPS Google Workspace account will be automatically deactivated. All students graduating or leaving FCPS for another school district must save their work.

Once a student account is deactivated, students will not be able to login to your FCPS Google account or access any files saved in Google Drive.

It is important that you download any files before last day of school. Instructions for downloading Google data are on the Google Workspace Information for Students and Parents page of the FCPS website.

Your student may also have work stored in other places - for example, designs created in Canva, graphic organizers created in Lucidchart, flashcards created in Pear Deck or another tech tool used at school. Most of these platforms allow students to download work in another format.

Student access to instructional technology tools that use “Sign in with Google” will end when the FCPS Google Workspace account is deactivated.

Students can check which apps and services use “Sign in with Google” in their FCPS Google Workspace account by following these steps:

Go to Manage your Google Account
Select Security.
Under “Signing in to other sites,” select Signing in with Google.
Under “Signing in with Google” is a list of third-party apps or services using sign in with Google.

3. Student Assessment Results

Starting in late May, caregivers will receive reports for assessments their students completed this spring. Not sure what assessments your student took this year? A list of tests by grade level is available. Scores will be delivered in SIS ParentVUE, by mail, or from the school or testing organization. Learn what to expect regarding assessment reporting practices and timelines.

Some families will also receive a Virginia’s Visualization and Analytics Solution (VVAAS) Student Assessment Summary report with historical Standards of Learning (SOL) test results from 2015-2022.

Go online or contact your student's school for additional information about student assessments.

5. Recent Student Successes

This is the next installment for the school year of what has become a weekly segment aimed at recognizing students for demonstrating recent improvement or achievement in academics, behavior or citizenship. At the end of each recognition, you will see the name of the nominating teacher or staff member. On a rotating basis, departments will nominate students. Dr. Goodloe meets with recognized students each week to congratulate them in person.

I have Mohammed Ali in 2 classes this year. He has been working not only on learning the content of the courses but the soft skills, as well. He has strong communication and interaction skills and has worked hard on his time management and prioritizing skills this year. These will serve him well throughout his life! Mohammed it has been a pleasure to have you in class this year. Ms. Cindy Belsky
Basimah Basharat has made great strides in learning this semester. She has done an outstanding job on recent assignments and I know she will continue to grow and impress next year! Mr. Todd Whitesell
I have selected Kiara Berzi as my choice for the Technology & Engineering Education Program’s 4th quarter Student Success recipient. Kiara is a student in my STEM Design class and as we have progressed through the year, she has maintained high standards and a positive work ethic. In the STEM Design class, as we move through the different units, students typically show a greater interest and work harder in certain ones. Their quality of work and the amount of time that they spend on activities will vary based on their interests. This has not been the case with Kiara. She has shown a genuine interest in all the different units of study. She is always focused and she puts forth her best effort for each and every assignment. I have enjoyed having Kiara in class this year! Keep up the good work, Kiara! Ms. Sue Chudovan
Anastasia Hayes is in the top 1% of students in Introduction to Marketing. She has been a leader and mentor in her class. Her assignments are always creative, detailed, and connected to current marketing trends. I look forward to viewing her work! Anastasia is a delight to talk with and is always attentive in class. I will miss her next year and look forward to seeing her succeed at CHS this next few years! Ms Jennifer Piotrowski
Samantha McMahan had been solid all school year in my class and she did a phenomenal job on her final project! Great job Samantha. Mr. Phil Leger
Rahul Ponugoti has significantly improved his assessment grades and work ethic in Comp Gov. He has also been proactive in seeking out due dates. Ms. Brittanye Mohrbacher
Darlin Rodriguez Medina is a pleasure to have in class. She often finishes her work early and then supports other students around her. She is a great collaborator and her growth in such a short time is amazing. Ms. Courtney Marshall
Keenan Tjahjana is a devoted worker at his current internship. He has not only been a star student in the STEP program, he has also worked on getting his associates degree in bookkeeping during the year. He was recognized at his current internship as well. Stay awesome Keenan! Ms. Kirsten Hassan

1. A Note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Community,

Kudos to all of our students, families, and staff for navigating a modified schedule and supporting one another as we moved into SOL and end of course testing this week. Students have done a great job and we are appreciative of your support.

It has been a great week of connections at Chantilly HS. A few of the highlights:

Academy Awards: Congratulations and thank you to all of our students, staff, and families in the Chantilly Governor's STEM Academy who were recognized at the Academy Awards earlier this week. It was inspiring to be present to hear the outstanding accomplishments including scholarships awarded, professional certifications achieved, and post-secondary plans. The Academy Awards was truly a celebration of Portrait of a Graduate in action. I was struck by the comments of one of our Academy Faculty, Mr. Aberle who shared, "we do not become ourselves by ourselves". The community strength, care and collaboration is evident in the Chantilly Academy and in our Charger community.

Students:

Every Friday, I have the opportunity to recognize students who have been nominated by their teachers and staff who work closely with them, for their growth, resilience and perseverance. Recent Student Successes (listed below) is just one of the many ways that our Chantilly staff shows they care for our students.
On Wednesday I attended our Combatting Intolerance class and participated in a Student Forum where students shared concerns, questions, and advocated how to best support all students in our community. I was able to share with them information about the FCPS Tip Line and additional resources for reporting concerns. My biggest takeaway was that Chantilly is a community that CARES about the wellbeing and connectedness of each student. We are looking forward to building on that belief.

Staff:

This week we have supported one another through proctoring tests and changing schedules. We are continuing to develop connections with all faculty through smaller scale meetings as we plan for the 23-24 school year. As we share and reflect on feedback and data shared by staff, key words that stand out as assets: Community, Students, Colleagues, Support.
Congratulations to Mr. Luc Nguyen, who was recognized as the DMV Yearbook Advisor of the month! We are so proud of him and excited for the entire Chantilly Yearbook staff who shared our yearbook with the Charger community this week.

Community:

Thank you to Ms. Ko and our Korean students for their fantastic Korean Cultural Night performance at Lees Corner ES. The evening included both traditional and modern performances and highlights of Korean culture. It was a fantastic evening!
It was wonderful to see several new faces at our PTSA meeting this week. One way the PTSA is looking to enhance communication and connections is through a new Instagram account. More information to follow!

I am looking forward to making many more Charger Connections in the coming weeks! I hope to see you at CHS very soon.

As always, please feel free to reach out to me with observations, suggestions, questions and celebrations. You can do that through e-mail ([email protected]), call 703-222-8100, or through the form located here. Please remember that if you do not include your information on the form, I will not be able to follow-up.

4. Recent Student Successes

We’re really proud of Nicholas (Nick) Donner - he has made a lot of progress in STEP this quarter. Nick has been working very hard at both of his job sites. He consistently demonstrates a positive attitude, and he has been more confident when communicating with his co-workers. Every day, Nick gives full effort into completing all of his job tasks! Ms. Kristin Dreyer
Josiah Fields has made excellent progress in the STEP program this year. He has worked successfully at two different jobs, one of which has even offered him paid employment. Josiah is a dedicated worker who is always smiling, and he consistently displays a positive work ethic. Even though this is Josiah's first year in the program, he consistently serves as a role model to the other students with his positivity and dedication to his job. Ms. Erin Foster
In his third and final year in Chantilly High School’s Secondary Transition to Employment Program, Shon Gore worked as an at his worksites, wherein he demonstrated himself to be hardworking, dedicated, and reliable. His work as a stocker/recovery specialist which resulted in the manager and head cashier describing him as “the best” and communicating their desire to “hire him on the spot.” Similarly, his precise work in his 2nd position had the project host so impressed that he is not only advancing a plan to offer Shon paid employment to continue his work over the summer, but also considering ways that compensation for the Artificial Intelligence project can be extended to other interested interns whose work is as impressive. We are proud of Shon for what he has done this year in opening doors and positively representing our program. Ms. Mariann Gibson
Sameera Gorthy worked so hard during the second semester to make up her oral and written comprehension in French 4. Her extra effort to listen to podcasts and read in French paid off as she aced her oral summative and she even saw the difference in her ability to recall needed vocabulary. Ms. JoEllen Delamatta
Asaad Kargbo, I am so happy with how you've been engaged in our class recently! Your growth and abilities in French are really progressing. Great job and keep it up! Ms. Elaine Gonzalez
Excellent work in French 2 throughout the year always helping classmates and being ready to ask questions. Arushi Surve, you inspire others with your thirst to learn! Ms. JoEllen Delamatta

Chantilly High School Sports Physical Registration Now Open!

Believe it or not, it is time to start planning for the 2023-2024 school year. The first step to participate in any preseason or afterschool athletic event is completing a VHSL Sports Physical (https://www.vhsl.org/vhsl-physical-form/). The Chantilly High School Athletic Training Department will be offering sports physicals at Chantilly High School on Thursday, June 1st, 2023. We provide a comprehensive physical evaluation with several stations including height, weight, blood pressure, vision screening, and orthopedic and postural evaluations performed by Athletic Trainers, Nurses, EMTs and Physical Therapists.

This physical will be good for all sports and out of season practices (green days, yellow days, weight room workouts) for the 2023-2024 school year. This event is a fundraiser for the Chantilly High School Athletic Training Department and goes to support the athletes at Chantilly High School. We receive limited funding and this event is how we raise money to purchase medical supplies (bandages, gauze, tape, crutches, splints, etc) and modalities that we use for all the sports teams for the entire school year. The cost of the physical is $50 when you register online, $60 for walk-ins. Appointment times range from 5:30-7:30pm.

You can register by following this link: 2023 Athletic Physical Registration

We are always looking for medical and non-medical volunteers to assist us for the event. If you are interested in helping out or have any questions, please contact me at [email protected].

Thank you for your continued support!

Chantilly HS is offering three 1 day Freshmen Orientation options on August, 8th, 9th or 10th from 9am-1pm. This is a chance for students to get to know CHS, ease any anxiety, and learnt how to navigate high school life as a CHARGER. It's fun and you don't want to miss out. $50 includes a Class of 2027 t-shirt, snacks, and lunch. Registration is on a first come, first serve basis. Register today to secure a spot as last year's event sold out. Registration Link: https://forms/gle/7nwqf2XpUetqqP666

1. A Note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Community,

We have had a fantastic week at Chantilly High School. A few highlights of connections this week:

Students:

Congratulations to our AVID (Advancement Via Individual
Determination) students and staff for a special Crossover event this week. Our seniors shared their reflections on the impact of the program on their future educational and career aspirations and we welcomed our incoming new students to the program. Together our families shared community time together with our students playing Scattergories. What an awesome way to build relationships and connections.
Over the past several weeks I have enjoyed participating in interviews with our media staff of Purple Tide and Knightly News about schoolwide goals, initiatives, and plans for the coming school year. I am impressed with the outstanding Portrait of a Graduate skills on display by our students.
I am so proud of our students across grade levels, departments and in the Academy for their commitment to excellence. They have demonstrated outstanding performance on VA State board exams, industry certifications and AP assessments this week with many more to come.

Staff:

May is testing season and our staff has been busy teaching, training, proctoring, and supporting students to do their best on AP, SOL and other exams, while maintaining our regular schedule. Thank you!
Congratulations to the following Chantilly Staff members who will be recognized at the SEPTA (Special Education PTA) awards this weekend: Mandy Burke, Nick Thayer, Rich Sarhanis, Kristen Fennel and Kara Hayden. Thank you for your amazing work and support of our students.

Community:

As regular season play wraps up for spring sports, it was wonderful to celebrate our class of 2023 at Senior Nights this week for Boys Soccer, Baseball and later this evening, Boys Lacrosse. I know I share in the pride of our families as they recognize our student athletes' many contributions to the Charger community. Thank you families for your support and time volunteering!
Don't miss out on our Theater performances this weekend of the Fairytale Peace Program Friday 7:00pm, Saturday 11:00am and 2:00pm, Auditorium
Thank you to our partners in the US Park Police for sharing about service as a Mounted Park Police officer with our Criminal Justice Students. We loved meeting Mo the police horse!

I am looking forward to making many more Charger Connections in the coming weeks! I hope to see you at CHS very soon.

Staff Appreciation Week BBQ

1. A Note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Community,

We have had a wonderful week at Chantilly focusing on sharing our gratitude for the great work of all of our staff members and on self-care and wellness. If you haven't had a chance to ask your students about our furry visitors that were here earlier in the week, be sure to do so. Students and staff truly enjoyed the break outside and engaging with therapy animals. Due to weather we had to reschedule our school-wide wellness fair for May, which will be a wonderful break from testing season for our students and staff. Thank you to our PTSA for supporting Staff Appreciation Week with daily treats and raffle prizes that show how much the community cares for our Charger Staff.

As we continue to assess how to enhance communication with the community, we are trying out several new tools to share key information with our students staff and families. This week we initiated a "Chantilly Events" email that will serve to share weekly athletic events and student activities. Additionally, you may have received a text message from CHS earlier in the week with updates. Our students continue to share on Instagram and we have an updated official Chantilly HS IG that we encourage you to follow. Please also see the note about TalkingPoints text application below. More to come! Thank you for all of your feedback.

A few highlights of connections this week:

Students:

Student Voices: Mr. Shin and I met with a student focus group representing many of our student organization and leadership groups to hear about their experiences and sense of belonging at Chantilly. I love hearing our student voices and their suggestions for how to ensure all students feel they belong.
Senior Nights: Congratulations to our seniors who were celebrated at girls' lacrosse and tennis and boys' tennis earlier this week. We are proud of our class of 2023!
Spotlight on Learning: Thank you to our Robotics program students who represented Chantilly at the pyramid Spotlight on Learning earlier this week and demonstrated Portrait of a Graduate skills in action.
Cabaret: It was a pleasure to hear our Chantilly Showstoppers perform at the Red Carpet Cabaret this week. Wow, we have so many talented Chargers!
Staff Appreciation BBQ: Thank you to our Leadership and Culinary students and staff, along with our Admin Team grillers who put on a fantastic Staff Appreciation BBQ today in the rain! (pictured above).

Staff:

We have been having a great week celebrating our OUTSTANDING Charger Faculty and Staff. We are grateful for your partnership and support to promote student success. Notes to staff make a big impact. Students and families are encouraged to write a note to a CHS staff member and send an email, a card, or complete this short form to Thank A Charger.
We celebrated National Library Week and Administrative Professionals Week and thanked our amazing librarians and administrative assistants and office assistants for all of their great work to support students, families and the community.
Thank you to our SBTS, Emily Phelan, and teacher leaders, Mary Catherine Keating and Nicole Abba for presenting at the pyramid Spotlight on Learning and sharing how Potrait of a Graduate is happening across classes and content.

Community:

It was wonderful to connect with so many parents and caregivers at our PTSA meeting this week. I encourage you to join and become involved in our Chantilly PTSA.
Hidden in Plain Site presentation was very well attended. We are grateful to the Fairfax County Police Department for sharing information and resources to support conversations with our students about risky behaviors and substance abuse.

I am looking forward to making many more Charger Connections in the coming weeks! I hope to see you at CHS very soon.

Sincerely,

Amy T. Goodloe, Ed.D.

2. CHS Performing Arts Presents: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Fifteen year-old Christopher has an extraordinary brain: He is exceptional at mathematics but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road, he detests being touched, and he distrusts strangers. Now it is 7 minutes after midnight, and Christopher stands beside his neighbor’s dead dog, Wellington, who has been speared with a garden fork. Finding himself under suspicion, Christopher is determined to solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington, and he carefully records each fact of the crime. But his detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him on a thrilling journey that upturns his world.

We include up to date statistics and local trends, and law enforcement officers will share their experiences they have had in our community identifying risky behavior and helping to put kids on the right path to a healthy life. Let’s open the door to communicating with our teens!

There are so many great things happening at Chantilly each and every day as we remained focused on engaging our students. supporting their growth, and elevating all voices. It is a joy to connect with our Charger community. Here are a few highlights from the past week:

Students:

Early in the week I met with the Class of 2023 Board to plan end of the year senior activities, convocation and graduation, 8 weeks to graduation and counting. Graduation will be held at Eagle Bank arena at 2 PM on June 7.
We are so proud of our students in the Secondary Transition to Employment Program (STEP) who shared their Career Presentations with their families and peers this week and our students in our Category B special education program who interviewed staff to practice their communication skills. Amazing to see Portrait of a Graduate Communicator and Collaborator attributes in action.
Students won the day at the Volley Brawl tournament this week. They defeated the faculty team. A great time was had by all.
It was my pleasure to attend the recognition and presentation of a resolution in honor of our Chantilly Student Media at the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors meeting. Our student Media were recognized with the First Amendment Press Freedom Award by the Journalism Education Association for actively supporting, teaching, and protecting First Amendment rights and responsibilities (read more below).

Staff:

We are so grateful to our staff for their great work as they focus on wrapping up the third quarter and plan for the end of the year. Did you know that on our early release days and work days, staff are hard at work and engaged in professional learning, assessing and planning?
I am amazed by the leadership and collaboration of our Instructional Council and Collaborative Team Leaders as they work together to focus on student support and practices that promote growth and learning. Thank you for all you do!

Community:

April is the Month of the Military Child and Virginia’s Purple Up! Day is Wednesday, April 19. We will be celebrating our military connected students on April 19 with a light breakfast and time to connect during Charger Time.

I look forward to being a part of our Chantilly Pyramid Art Show next week. We cannot wait to see our school transformed into a gallery displaying outstanding artwork from our students K-12.
Performing Arts will be in full swing next week with our spring production of Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time and Drum Line performances.

1. A Note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Community,

Wow! Spring has sprung! Whether you have been enjoying the Cherry Blossoms or just recently celebrated Opening Day for the Washington Nationals or are just looking forward to enjoying the warmer weather, spring brings us a sense of excitement and new energy. Next week is spring vacation for all FCPS students and staff. Our Chantilly office will be closed from April 3-7 and will re-open when school resumes on April 10. On behalf of the entire CHS faculty and Staff, I wish you a restful and recharging break full of all the activities and people you love.

It is a joy to connect with our Charger community. Here are a few highlights from the past week:

Students:

Spring Spirit Week has been a big success! It is wonderful to feel the enthusiasm in the building and the anticipation for spring break. Staff and students alike enjoyed dressing up throughout this week.
The Cake Boss event sponsored by CHS Leadership was a HUGE and tasty success. We have many talented Charger Bakers. I truly enjoyed the tasting.
Congratulations to the Chantilly Symphonic Winds, who are traveling up to Indianapolis this week to participate in the Music For All National Concert Band Festival. Their performance in Indianapolis is featured LIVE online via Media. They will perform at 5:45pm EST Friday, March 31 in the Schrott Center for the Arts at Butler University.

Staff:

Our Chantilly faculty engaged in mini meetings over two days together and shared feedback on FCPS Strategic Plan and how to best support students across departments and programs. We had thoughtful student-centered conversations focused on the future.
Thanks to the CHS Social Club and Culinary Arts students and Chef Clay for an amazing lunch of a French Fry Bar with all the toppings. It is always great to connect over a meal!

Community:

I had a wonderful conversation about the great things happening at CHS and opportunities for growth with several parents at my first Principals' Coffee this week. We talked about how we can enhance our connections and communications. One hot topic was how to ensure family access to student Schoology courses. Check out this video as a resource to help you support your students:
https://www.fcps.edu/schoology/support/videos
It was a pleasure to be invited and to attend Iftar at Dar Al-Hijrah Islamic Center this past Wednesday. I enjoyed connecting with many colleagues and students in our community and learning more about the Muslim faith and Ramadan.
Thank you to the many volunteers who made our Biology field trips such a success this week! We appreciate your partnership and support.
April is the Month of the Military Child and Virginia’s Purple Up! Day is Wednesday, April 19. The FCPS Purple Up! t-shirt is available for order now through March 16 here! Purple Up! FCPS!

7. Returning from Spring Break - Covid Reminders

Over the past few weeks, identified COVID cases at CHS have decreased to a very low number. During the past two years, we’ve noticed an increase in cases after students return from school breaks. As a result, we have summarized what parents need to do if their student tests positive or is exposed to someone who tests positive during Spring break.

If your student tests positive over the break:

Email Brenda Silvia-Torma, COVID Case Manager at CHS and CA: [email protected] and provide the following information:
- If yes, which sport? ___________________
- If yes, when did the team last meet? _________________
- If yes, which ones?_________________
- If yes, when did the group last meet? _______________________

Name and student ID number: __________________________
Symptom start date: _________________________
Diagnosis date: _______________
Participation in CHS sports (Y/N)
Participation in CHS clubs/activities (Y/N)

Ms.Siliva-Torma will respond with a detailed explanation for how/when your student can return to school after break. She will also contact you with follow up questions, if needed.

If your student was exposed to COVID over break:

Chargin Up

1. A Note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Community,

It has been a great week to be a Charger! It is officially spring and we are just a little over a week from spring vacation. I know I am excited for the warmer weather and time to refresh and relax with family and friends. Spring vacation is a great time for staff, students, and families to catch up on all the things we enjoy with the people we love. It has been an FCPS expectation for many years that no major assignments or assessments may be due or scheduled for the first two days following a vacation. This practice provides time for all in our community to take a well-deserved break. We recognize that the end of the third quarter is fast approaching and will wrap up on April 13 and will emphasize expectations for assignment deadlines with students.

As I continue to get to know the Charger community, I will share the great things happening at CHS and highlight the relationships and connections made. Highlights of a few connections from the past week:

.Students:

Our Charger student voices are strong! I appreciated time talking with our Leadership 1 class, and our Student Equity Ambassador Leaders (SEALS) this week to hear their feedback and ideas for how to connect with all of our students and ensure good things are happening for all at Chantilly. I am looking forward to more conversations with our student groups to hear their voices.
Chargin Up was a HUGE success: Our Activities Fair welcomed over 600 members of our class of 2027 from Franklin MS and Rocky Run MS to the building. Our rising 9th graders connected with Chargers representing activities, athletics, and performing arts to hear about all of the opportunities to get involved at Chantilly.
I had the pleasure of visiting our Symphonic Wind class to hear the students participating in a workshop with James M. David, an American Composer based in Colorado. Students are currently working on one of his newest works, Urban Light, which they will perform at the National Concert Band Festival at the end of the month. Dr. David joined the class via Google Meet to offer insight and feedback for our students!

Staff:

This week I connected with our Instructional Council and we discussed our grading and assessment practices and how we as as school team can best support and help all students to grow. I have been impressed by the strong commitment of our instructional leaders and their focus on learning.

Community:

Please join me for a time to talk and connect at our upcoming Principal's Coffee on March 29 at 8:30 AM. Details below.
It was great to be a part of the Fairfax County Regional Science and Engineering Fair and Awards presentation last Sunday at Robinson Secondary School. Our Chargers were well represented. Congratulations to all of the entrants and to the Grand Prize selections and alternates.

I am looking forward to making many more Charger Connections in the coming weeks!
