Dear Cherry Run Families,

It has been a wonderful week at Cherry Run ES! We hope you saw yesterday’s community message announcing that Cherry Run Elementary has been recognized as Distinguished under Virginia’s School Performance and Support Framework (SPSF). Based on data from last school year, this rating reflects that our school is exceeding the state’s expectations for student performance. This is an exciting accomplishment for our Cardinals, and we are proud of our school community!

A heartfelt thank-you to our PTA and the PTA Staff Relations Committee for helping our staff celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with snacks today. We are grateful for our community’s thoughtfulness and support, and the treats were much appreciated.

As a reminder, Monday, October 12, is a student holiday. We hope you enjoy the long weekend and look forward to welcoming our Cardinals back on Tuesday!

Maura Donahue and Dave Arthur
