One of the most specials days of the school year….Field Day on Friday, June 5. Information is shown below and we would love to have parent/guardian volunteers!

Tomorrow is the first day of SOL Testing for our Crocs. Thank you to Ms Savanick’s Kindergarten students for cheering on their buddy class, Ms Parker’s 3rd Grade. Each student in Ms Parker’s class received a special rock as they are going to “rock” the SOLs!

💜 Purple Up! Day 💜

On Wednesday, we wore purple to honor and support our military-connected students—the ones who show strength, resilience, and courage every day. From frequent moves to having loved ones deployed, their journeys inspire us all.

Let’s take a moment to recognize their sacrifices and show our appreciation for the important role they and their families play in our community. 💜

We stand with you today and every day.

So proud of these amazing sixth graders for participating in All County Chorus!! they joined over 600 fellow students from across the county for an incredible choral festival— what an unforgettable experience! Congratulations on your hard work and beautiful performance. Thank you to our two wonderful music teachers, who put in an extraordinary amount of time to make this possible for our sixth graders. Congratulations!!

Island Creek has the sweetest Preschool Students and the best Preschool Team! They took advantage of today’s beautiful spring weather!

Our students are having an amazing time in STEAM Club! 🎉
This after-school opportunity, made possible through the Educate Fairfax Grant, is giving students the chance to explore, create, and problem-solve in new and exciting ways. From hands-on building challenges to creative design projects, students are actively using the design process—planning, testing, and improving their ideas.
Even more exciting is seeing our students grow in their Portrait of a Graduate skills—collaborating with peers, thinking critically, communicating their ideas, and showing resilience when things don’t go as planned.
We’re so proud of their curiosity, creativity, and teamwork!

Recently, third graders worked on their Portrait of a Graduate skills during a math lesson.

Students worked on being great collaborators by sharing materials and supporting one another, while also strengthening their communication skills. They had thoughtful discussions about making the best estimates of length using both standard and metric units.

Learning, teamwork, and problem-solving all in action!

We are excited to welcome families to our Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon! This special tradition brings our school community together to celebrate gratitude, connection, and the joy of sharing a meal.

Please check the schedule posted below for your child’s grade-level lunch time. We can’t wait to see you!
