Dear Dolphin Families,

We’ve had a wonderful week at Lake Anne! Our first graders had a great time visiting the Smithsonian Museum of American History, connecting their learning to real-life experiences.

We’re so excited to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Lake Anne’s Spanish Immersion Program tonight—Friday, April 25 from 5–8 p.m. (rain date: May 2). Thank you to the planning committee for a full year of preparation, to those who volunteered their time, and to everyone who donated through the Amazon wishlist. This event is for current and former students, families, and staff.

As we continue through Autism Acceptance Month, we honor and support our autistic dolphins. According to the CDC, 1 in 44 children in the U.S. is diagnosed with autism. Our school community plays a vital role in creating inclusive, affirming spaces where all students feel seen and celebrated.

Attendance matters, especially as we approach the end of the school year. Let’s finish strong—every day makes a difference!

Reminder: Monday is an Early Release Day.

  • First dismissal: 12:35 p.m.

  • After-school dismissal: 3:35 p.m.

Thank you for your continued support!

Jill D. Stewart, Principal
Melanie N. Porter, Assistant Principal
