FCCPS ALERT -
There is a water main break on Route 7 about 40 yards from the entrance to Mary Ellen Henderson. The right lane of westbound Rt 7 is closed but the left lane will remain open. Parents will be able to get back to the right lane to turn in to the school but it will definitely slow down traffic this morning. Water crews are planning to back-feed the water line from the other side of the school so our schools do not lose water during the day.

Roots, Resilience, & Renewal - Week 21
Supt. Peter Noonan shares the work ahead following approval of the new School Board policy JA-Pandemic Student Mask Policy.
Opt-Out forms will go live next Wednesday and take effect in 3 weeks.
