Dear Mayfield Community and Families,

Happy Spring Break to all our families and staff at Mayfield Intermediate School. We hope that everyone enjoys their time off and can use the time to reenergize and gear up for the final month and a half of school.

That said, we understand that the last six weeks of the school year will go by extremely fast. So we want to give these helpful hints to ensure that everyone is successful:

1. Continue to strive for excellent attendance! We need all our students at school every day, ready to learn. We want to finish the school year on a strong note.

2. SOL Testing will begin on April 23rd with our 5th-grade Grade Integrated Reading and Writing SOL. The rest of the SOL dates are listed in this newsletter below.

3. I encourage you to continue to show your Bobcat Best behavior throughout the school year. Our staff has planned many great activities, and we want all our students to participate as we finish an incredible school year.

Thanks!

Donnie Frischkorn, Principal, dfrischkorn@mcpsva.org

It was a great Mayfield Moment today with our Annual Career Fair for our 5th—and 6th-grade students. Thank you to all the local community organizations that took the time today to discuss all possible career opportunities with our students in the wonderful City of Manassas! A special shout-out to our spectacular school counseling department for spending the time and energy to organize this event for our students!

We are currently recruiting and interviewing the next great group of educators to join the Manassas City Public School family. With the help of the Virginia iTeach Program, it's easier now than ever before. So, if you have ever thought of entering the teaching profession, take a moment to look at the Virginia iTeach program that will help you get the teaching license you need.

The Student Code of Conduct helps all students and parents understand their school-related rights, responsibilities, and expectations of the school. It is not intended to be a comprehensive document covering all possible situations but to provide a framework that makes clear that students are expected to act responsibly and with respect for other human beings at all times.

Parents can download a copy of the Student Code of Conduct from our school division website.
