Chinese Program Update: Teacher Transition
Farewell to Ms. Grace Yuan
As many of you have heard, at the end of January, Ms. Grace Yuan retired. We are incredibly grateful for Ms. Yuan’s years of dedication to our school community and for the care and passion she has brought to her students and the program as a whole. She has made a lasting impact, and we wish her all the best as she begins this next chapter.
Welcome Ms. Yuqing Yao
We are pleased to announce that Ms. Yuqing Yao, an experienced Chinese language educator, will join us at the start of the third quarter. We are confident her expertise will ensure a smooth transition and continued excellence for our students.
Thank you for your continued support as we celebrate Ms. Yuan and welcome Ms. Yao to our community. Please reach out if you have any questions.
Upcoming Student Experience Survey at Providence Elementary School
Our school will participate in the FCPS Student Experience Survey. This survey will gather important feedback from students about their school experiences to help FCPS make meaningful improvements. Communication was sent via email earlier this month with details on how to preview the survey and opt your child out, if you choose. The electronic opt-out form can also be accessed at this link.
The deadline to opt your child out is February 13.
All students in grades 3-6, except those who have opted out, will receive a link to the survey in their FCPS email on February 23. We will administer the survey during the school day between Monday, February 23, and Friday, March 6. Any student may take the survey at home, if they are unable to take the survey during the school day.

It’s Kindergarten Registration Time
Kindergarten helps children learn and practice the social, emotional, problem-solving, and self-regulation skills they will use throughout their lives.
Fairfax County public schools typically conduct kindergarten registration events, including orientation (PES on April 10), in the spring. Eligible children can be registered throughout the summer, but registering your child early helps schools prepare and ensure they have the teachers and resources needed on the first day of school.
If your child will attend our school, please gather necessary documents and complete registration forms as soon as possible.
FCPS offers support and resources for all families to help with registration and the transition to kindergarten. For support in other languages, please visit the FCPS Registration webpage.
