What a fun, musical way to prepare for summer! ☀️🎶

This morning, our school came together for a special summer-themed music event, led by our music therapist. Students enjoyed summer music favorites and explored a variety of musical instruments, making music together as a school community.

We were especially excited to introduce a variety of new instruments purchased through a generous grant from the The Guitar Center Music Foundation. Thank you for helping create meaningful, engaging musical experiences for our students!

What a wonderful day at Key Center School yesterday for our Field Day and Family Picnic!

While the oppressive heat forced us to move Field Day activities indoors, our students, families, and staff made the most of it with a fun-filled day in the gym. Families were invited to join their students for games, activities, and plenty of smiles, followed by a family picnic and PTA meeting. We extend our sincere gratitude to Fairfax County 250th Commemoration and the Key Center PTA for generously sponsoring this special event and helping make the day such a success. In addition to the fun and socializing, we also conducted important PTA business, including the approval of our PTA Executive Board and proposed budget for the upcoming school year.

We were especially honored to welcome the Tinker/Enos family, who shared a heartfelt memorial to their son, Matt, a Key Center alumnus. Their generous donation to the PTA in Matt’s memory is deeply appreciated and will help support future opportunities for our students.

Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, and helped make the day memorable. A great time was had by all, and we are grateful for the strong community that makes Key Center such a special place!

Our Transition classes wrapped up their 4-week Around the World experience today! This final week focused on Ghana. Throughout the week, students explored Ghanaian culture through hands-on learning and engaging activities. To celebrate the end of the unit, students participated in a variety of group activities that brought their learning to life.

As a sensory activity, students created colorful Kente cloth art using dyed rice, made their own djembe drum crafts, and even prepared their own tasty jollof rice dish to enjoy. This was such a creative and fun learning experience for the students! 🌍🚀

A special thank you to the FCPSGet2Green program for providing the funding to purchase plants and garden supplies. We are also thankful to the Boy Scout Troop #859 for their hard work creating pathways and relocating our raised garden beds. A huge thank you goes to parent volunteer Beth Clark for generously donating plants and spending her time helping us get everything planted.

This beautiful new outdoor learning space will give our students opportunities to explore nature, learn about pollinators, sustainability, and caring for our environment. It is already bringing so much joy to our school community and creating meaningful learning experiences for our students.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this project possible! 🌼🐝🦋

Key Center’s 2026 Prom was truly “Out of This World!” 🚀✨

On May 22, students and staff enjoyed an unforgettable prom filled with fun, dancing, laughter, and amazing outer space-themed decorations that transformed the cafeteria into a galactic celebration. Everyone had a wonderful time showing off their dance moves and making special memories together.

A huge thank you to DJ Garv for providing the awesome music that kept the dance floor moving. We are also so grateful to the Rotary District 7610 Landmark Satellite Club and the Henderson/Harper family for their generous donation of food and volunteers who helped make the prom a success.

Thank you to everyone who helped create such a special event for our students! 💫
