The Learn To Swim program is back and better than ever! It's incredibly exciting to work with elementary schools in Richmond, such as Crestwood Elementary School, Richmond, VA, to teach their second graders how to swim. Learning how to swim leads to greater self-confidence as well as academic success.

A few pics from yesterday during SwimRVA's Learn-To-Swim program with Crestwood Elementary School, Richmond, VA in Chesterfield County Virginia Government. Thank you students and teachers for your awesome energy!
Hey there! How do I access the school pics? Or can I at this point? I’ve always preordered but neglected to this time and didn’t see proofs come home with either kid. Thanks for any help out there!
Is it just me or are all the crestwood sites down? Trying to snag email addresses to send Amazing gift cards. Thanks for any help out there!
Does anyone have the link to purchase the school pictures from today. I asked my child's teacher a couple of times and still haven't gotten it. She looked so cute today😍- I can't miss getting them!
Hey there, I don’t know if someone from the PTA can confirm if Papa Johns still gives Crestwood 10% using this code? I don’t remember it saying “Intermediate School” in the past. Thanks!
Just wanted to let everyone know that your spirit wear orders will be available for pickup tomorrow after 1:30 at the office at Crestwood. I emailed two people for clarification. If I hear from you before 9pm your order will be there too😀

Parents of the 5th Graders, please encourage your children to participate in the yearbook cover design. Last week they brought home a worksheet and are asked to "doodle" something. (also posted in the comments).

Ideas of a doodle were given (school item, food, sport, animal, positive word, etc.), as well as examples were printed on the page. Completed worksheet should be brought back to the teacher.

👉Deadline for the project is Nov. 1st.

p.s. doodle is a drawing/sketch with a black pen or marker (pencil is ok as well). Please ask them not to use colors, as we are not able to use those images in our design.
