Veterans Day: No School on Friday, November 10th
Schools and offices will be closed on Friday, November 10th in observation of Veterans Day.
Veterans Day is November 11th and there’s no better time to honor those who served. Whether it’s a small token of your appreciation, a care package, donating your time, or supporting Veteran-Owned businesses, there are endless ways to recognize the brave men and women who have served in the U.S. Military.
We want to take a moment to thank members of our Battlefield community who have served, or who are currently serving in the U.S. Military. Thank you for your courage, strength and dedication to keeping us safe.
School Psychologist Appreciation
We'd like to recognize and show our appreciation for Mrs. Welteroth and all that she does to support students' learning and mental and behavioral health, to promote a positive and inclusive school climate, to serve on school safety and crisis teams, and to collaborate with families, teachers, and administrators to improve student outcomes.
School Attendance Officer Appreciation
This week was School Attendance Officer Appreciation Week. We would like to thank our Attendance Officer, Danielle James, for all that she does for our students and families.
Ms. James refers students and families to resources within the school and the community in order to address issues which may be impacting school attendance and develops an action plan for truant students as mandated by Virginia law.
Thank you, Ms. James, for all you do for our students!
