It takes a special kind of strength to be a military child, and at Floris, we are lucky enough to have some of the best! 💜

By wearing purple—the color that symbolizes all branches of the military coming together—we’re letting our military students know they have a whole community standing behind them.

Drop a 💜 in the comments to show your support!

We’re so excited to share this! 🎉 One of our students took home 1st place in the Fairfax County Spelling Bee—what an amazing accomplishment.

Join us in congratulating our spelling bee champion! 🐝📚
