Open House Today @ 4PM

Admin invites their Shepherd Mustang Families to visit classrooms during the Open House on Friday, August 22 at 4PM. During this time, families can view the spaces in which their student will occupy daily. This is only a walk-through. If you would like to speak with the teacher, please reach out directly to schedule an appointment. 

SES PTO has created a new resource site for our families - PTO Portal! It will serve as your go-to spot for staying connected, getting involved, and supporting our vibrant school community. Explore the site here to find communications, events, DCPS resources, and quick links to helpful information or forms.
