Field Day is COMING - JUNE 8th

Our panthers are gearing up for a day of teamwork, energy, and serious splashes. We have a huge lineup of outdoor races and events planned, including the main attraction: The Dunk Tank!
Come see your favorite teachers on the "hot seat" and see who has the best aim in the school.

We Need You!
We can’t pull off this much fun without some extra hands! If you have some time to spare, we would love to have you volunteer. Whether it’s resetting the dunk tank or cheering at the finish line, your help makes this day possible for the kids.

There’s a new champ in the City of Fairfax!

Daniels Run edged out our Providence Panthers 2-1 in last night's volleyball thriller.

Even though the Panthers didn't take the trophy home this time, a fun time was had by all. Both teams showed serious hustle, heart, and teamwork out there. We'll get 'em next time, Panthers! 😉🐾
