Welcome to our school’s website. We hope you enjoy looking at all of the great learning activities we have going on at our school!
SOLs start May 13. Please look carefully at the calendar below for when your child will be testing. It is very important that your child gets a good night sleep the night before the test, has a healthy breakfast, and gets to school on time. For more testing tips, click here! We look forward to having the students show us all that they have learned this year!

The Rockingham County School Board has approved a change in our school day calendar for next week.
Friday, March 29, 2013 was to be half student day and half teacher workday will now be a FULL STUDENT DAY. Students will go home at 3pm as usual, not at 1pm.
In addition, please know that Spring Break, April 1-5, remains as scheduled. You should receive a notice from School Messenger, the new Parent Notification System in RCPS.
Check out the March edition of The Lion Tales, McGaheysville’s school newsletter.

The nurse also has focused on ways to treat head lice, a creepy, but common problem in elementary schools. Our Spring Carnival will be held Friday, April 19th at 4:30. Below is the Lion Tales calendar highlighting important upcoming events.
Our PreK, Kindergarten and First grade musical program has been rescheduled for Thursday, March 14 at 1:30 and 7pm. There will also be a PTO meeting at 6. Hope to see you there!
Both of our Destination Imagination Teams won first place in their divisions at the regional tournament on Saturday, March 9th! They are both headed to the state tournament April 12th. If you see members of the DI Party Peeps, or the Disco Monkeys of Doom, congratulate them!
Good luck teams! We are proud of you!
Congratulations to Riley Detwiler in Mr. Brake’s fifth grade class! She won the Rockingham County Recreation Department’s Christmas Card Art contest. She submitted a fantastic drawing that you can see below. Her winning picture will be used as the Rockingham Recreation Department’s Holiday card this year. Many of our other students won honorable mention as well. Way to go!

Dr. Fenn recently hitched a ride with Lowell Wright, one of McGaheysville safe bus drivers. He has 12 consecutive years of winning the Safe Driving Award. For more information, see this post on the Rockingham Highlights!
