Water Main Break / Wasserrohrbruch
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5, 2025
Our school has experienced water damage due to a water main break in the neighborhood. Preschool, SEL, and grades 5–12 are operating as usual.
IMPORTANT: The elementary school building is currently being restored to a usable condition; therefore, we are unfortunately unable to offer regular classes or supervision for grades 1–4.
Please keep your children in grades 1 to 4 at home on Friday, December 5.
The Newbees canceled the Newbees Breakfast.
We are closely monitoring the MCPS decision for Friday in case they announce a delayed start due to the weather.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Aufgrund eines Wasserrohrbruchs in der Nachbarschaft ist es zu einem Wasserschaden an unserer Schule gekommen ist. Der Kidnergarten, SES sowie die Klassen 5–12 haben regulären Unterricht.
WICHTIG: Das Grundschulgebäude wird derzeit in einen nutzbaren Zustand gebracht, daher können wir für die Klassen 1–4 leider keinen regulären Unterricht und auch keine Betreuung anbieten.
Bitte behalten Sie Ihre Kinder der Klassen 1 bis 4 am Freitag, den 5. Dezember zu Hause.
Die NewBees haben das Newbees-Frühstück abgesagt.
Wir behalten die Entscheidung von MCPS für Freitag im Blick, falls aufgrund des Wetters ein verspäteter Schulbeginn angekündigt wird.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Verständnis und Ihre Unterstützung.
Handmade Crafts & Advent Wreath Crafting
|
Handmade Crafts The Christmas Market will be here soon! If you’ve been crafting or creating your way through the pandemic and find yourself with a plethora of finished handmade items, please consider donating them to the Friends or selling them through our online marketplace for the benefit of our school. Please contact Friends at friends@giswashington.org for information to be a personal vendor. Please contact the Arts&Crafts group at artsandcraftsfriends@gmail.com to donate your handmade items. Advent Wreath Crafting While the Arts&Crafts group is busily creating items to sell, we would greatly appreciate any help from our community. As usual, we will need many volunteers to assemble Advent wreaths the week before and after Thanksgiving break. Next week, look for the link to the signup sheet. We know everyone’s schedules are more constrained, but we would love to be able to continue this tradition this year even if it’s limited. Please consider donating your time for our school! The Arts&Crafts group will continue meeting Wednesdays from 8:30 to noon in room 101 of the science building. |
