Dear Common Ground,

It’s Valentine’s Week here at Common Ground and our classrooms will be celebrating this week since Valentine’s Day falls over the long weekend this year! We have our Baskin Robbins SPIRIT NIGHT tomorrow to celebrate Miss Adella’s 31st birthday!

Most classes pare partying on Friday, if you wish to address Valentine’s Day Card individually, you can access the class lists here.

The Honeybees Class has an EXTRA long weekend, since they will be CLOSED on Friday, February 12th so that teachers can receive and recover from their second dose of the COVID vaccine! You can read about Miss LJ, Miss Victoria, and Miss Liz’s experiences here.

After a winter dry spell, it looks like February has decided to deliver with three snow storms coming in over the next week or so! With igloo blueprints in hand, we are really hoping its safe enough to open! As a reminder, we will communicate our status via Brightwheel and the website! When we do open in snowy weather, please make sure that you send your kiddos with plenty of winter gear.

In fact, snow pants make great “outdoor pants” on cold days! Especially since we are still trying to spend as much time outdoors as we can!

Finally, we have several meetings this week on Zoom:

TONIGHT: Kindergarten Update Meeting
TOMORROW NIGHT: Camp Interest Meeting (this is more for people with kids entering FCPS in the fall and not already at CG)

Have a great week!

The CG Team
