Volunteer Opportunities Discovery Garden WE NEED YOU! .  How can you help?  Each month we will clean up, make small changes, update old signs, etc, to make sure our children can be successful in the garden!   Help us continue to beautify the Discovery Garden and support our students and teachers to be environmental stewards by using the garden as our outdoor classroom

Volunteer Opportunities Spring Fling We are looking for a committee of people to run a spring fundraiser in March. In years past this has been called Spring Fling and has involved class raffle baskets and, some years, a silent auction, but any and all new ideas welcome. Contact Beth Hamilton if you can help - bethhamilton@cox.net First meeting is tomorrow at Beth’s house at 10:45 am.

CIP / FCPS Budget Update

Capital Improvement Program 2016-2020 Stratford Landing: • At the conclusion of the renovation and capacity enhancement, the school will have a capacity of 925 students (800 students if the AAP Center is realigned with the new AAP Center at Bucknell ES) in the 2018-19 school year. • Create a new AAP Center at Bucknell ES upon completion of the renovation. Reassign AAP students residing within Belle View ES, Groveton ES, Hybla Valley ES, Hollin Meadows ES and Bucknell ES attendance areas from Stratford Landing ES to the new AAP Center at Bucknell ES. This change will increase the Bucknell ES capacity from 400 to 600. This option will provide capacity relief to Stratford Landing ES. • Reassign students from Hybla Valley ES to Hollin Meadows ES and Stratford Landing ES upon the completion of their renovation projects. This option will provide capacity relief to Hybla Valley ES. • Reassign students from Stratford Landing ES to Fort Hunt ES. This option will provide capacity relief to Stratford Landing ES and will reduce the capacity enhancement needed with the renovation. • Relocate modular additions from Stratford Landing ES to West Potomac HS to accommodate enrollment growth

Capital Improvement Program 2017-2021 Stratford Landing: At the conclusion of the renovation and capacity enhancement in SY 2018-19, Stratford Landing ES will have a capacity of 950 students. Relocate modular addition from Stratford Landing ES to another facility in need of capacity relief.

January February 12 PTA meeting at 7:00 pm
