We’re turning pages and making waves!

It’s the second-to-last week of our Read-A-Thon, and McAuliffe students are absolutely crushing it! They've read over 60,000 minutes — that’s like reading nonstop for 41 days! As a reward, they’ve earned 10 extra minutes of recess to celebrate their literary stamina 🎉

💰 We’ve also raised nearly $3,000, helping support programs that make our school shine even brighter. But we’re not done yet — there’s still time to activate your student’s page and log those minutes: 👉 Click here to join the fun

Thank you for your incredible support and for helping us build a community of enthusiastic readers.

Let’s finish strong!

A resource for families who might need some help with food.

There are 15,200 families in Prince William County who receive benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), providing approximately $5.9 million in food assistance to residents in the county each month. If the federal government shutdown continues, there will be an impact to SNAP, meaning those families may not be issued food assistance starting on November 1. Prince William County is closely monitoring the federal appropriations discussion and the potential impact to the community if a federal appropriations bill is not passed by November 1.

On October 23, Governor Glenn Youngkin declared a state of emergency, stating that “the Commonwealth will provide food benefits.” Prince William County is waiting for guidance from the Virginia Department of Social Services (VDSS) on what that means at the local level.

If there is a disruption due to the lack of available funding, the county’s Department of Social Services (DSS) will work closely with VDSS and local community partners to minimize the impact and will look at all possible options the county has in assisting families.

In the meantime, residents can reach out to the Department of Social Services at 703 792-7500 or the VDSS Benefits Hotline at 1-800-552-3431 if they have questions.

Anyone experiencing food insecurity or needs assistance due to the government shutdown can visit the county’s Resource Hub for information about available resources: https://loom.ly/IWw__j4
