This National School Counseling Week is coming to an end but let's give a cheer for the first smiling face you see when you step into the magic kingdom of support – Ms. Wiley! Your office door is always the first stop to a world where dreams come true and support is a hug away! Fun fact, Ms. Wiley worked at Walt Disney World in Orlando for 6 years, no wonder she sparkles. #SchoolCounselingWeek #MagicInEveryHallway
Members of the James Monroe High School Choir Department traveled to Universal Studios, Florida last month to discover the art of Sound and Recording. They were able to take part in a Foley Sound Design Workshop with a producer and recording engineers from Universal Studios.
The students and chaperones had the best time learning about animation and voiceovers. They were eager to volunteer and try their hand at timing the voiceovers with a clip from Despicable Me. They learned music before traveling and recorded it live in the studio.
The students on the trip represented James Monroe and FCPS in such a positive manner; they were complimented everywhere we went, the studio, the hotel, and the dinner theater we attended. Way to go!

Yesterday, they were serving looks sharp enough to educate you from a mile away! #DressedToEducate #BestDressedEducators

This week, the French Club celebrated Le Chandeleur. Le Chandeleur is held every February 2 in France and is a time for the French to light candles and make crepes. Tradition says that if you are able to hold a coin in one hand while flipping a crepe in the other without dropping either, you will have good luck all year. Luckily our French Club members were able to successfully flip their first crepe!
Always a great time at the Intern Expo with Fredericksburg Regional Chamber of Commerce.
