In this episode, we explore The Feather Report (Volume 2, Issue 26), which focuses heavily on planning for the future. We break down the newly released criteria for rising 7th graders hoping to take Algebra 1 Honors, and we highlight exciting upcoming enrichment opportunities, including free "Spring into STEM" workshops with Virginia Tech and registration for the Summer STEAM Academy. With March officially designated as Reading Month, we also preview the reading-themed "Fun Clothing Wednesdays"—starting with Pajama Day—and invite families to the Light Up the Night with Literacy event. Additionally, we recap a very special visit from School Board Representative Dr. Ricardy Anderson, who hosted a town hall with AAP students and even helped secure funding for their upcoming trip to the Capitol. Finally, we share tips on turning everyday errands into learning moments, discuss how Westlawn staff track their personal reading habits, and get to know Special Education Teacher Manal Alaswadi in this week's Staff Spotlight.
