Incredible afternoon at Shrevewood Elementary -- began with a brief tour led by two amazing students, and then I spent some time helping our hard-working custodians clean the school. Grateful for all they do to keep student learning spaces healthy, safe, and truly welcoming!

Enjoyed kicking off my day with a Pine Spring Elementary bus ride-along with Mr. Spaulding, one of our incredibly hardworking FCPS bus drivers. Loved meeting families and talking with (mostly!) alert and eager students. Big shout-out to our safety patrol student leaders for doing such a great job!
