Dear South Lakes Band Boosters,

The Fairfax County Public Schools FY 2011 budget calls for an $81.9 million increase over last year's county budget transfer in order to save key programs, such as elementary band and strings, class sizes, full-day kindergarten, and elementary foreign language

Unfortunately, the County Executive's FY 2011 Advertised Bugdet recommends a $1.6 million dollar transfer to the Public School Operating Fund, reflecting a 1 percent decrease from from last year's county budget transfer. (See the entire budget presentation. [link])

Good Evening.
Wind Ensemble and Jazz Band will have year book pictures tomorrow during period 6 learning seminar.
Students should report to the band room asap after period 2 and change for photos.
Photos will take place the first 20 minutes PD 6 Learning Seminar.
Sincerely,
Mr. Fore

Dear Parents,

Please take a moment to read the message below from Denny Stokes.

Saturday is an important work sessions where the Board of Supervisors will detemine the Fairfax County tariff. The result of this tariff will have a huge impact on the school boards ability to keep music, full day kindergarten, language and small classes for our school system. We need the board of supervisors to set a high ceiling for this tariff so we can maintain the programs families have come to expect from FCPS.

Good Afternoon.
