If you practice compassion, whether you believe in a religion or not, you will come to realize the value of compassion for your own peace of mind. Even a small act of compassion grants meaning and purpose to our lives.

Seeing the excitement and smiles from #OurCES Eagles on the #WelcomeWalk is pure joy! Fostering a sense of community, building relationships, and stengthening family partnerships Centreville ES

Happy SY, 22-23! We have two in second and one in sixth! All the way from the first day of Kindergarten to the first day of 6th grade… #dontblink #FirstDayFairfax

When you walk into the office at 4:45 before a 4 day weekend and see your admin going above and beyond to make sure we have our SEL toolkits! Jen Killingsworth Rachel Forte

What better way to end the week than a school-wide pep rally full of energy, fun, laughter, & celebration! #ItsaCESthing #OurCES Josh Douds

What good is an idea if it remains an idea? Try. Experiment. Iterate. Fail. Try again. Change the world.

The people who are nice to you aren’t always being kind to you. Saying what you want to hear is nice. People sugarcoat feedback to make you feel good today. Sharing what you need to hear is kind. People speak honestly to help you do better tomorrow. Candor is an act of care.
