DC Day: An End of Year Celebration!
Dedicated to Krista Howell and her unwavering and bold commitment to justice, inclusion, and anti-racism.
DC Day, which will take place on Thursday, June 13, celebrates and teaches about Washington, DC’s rich history and culture for SWS’s students, families, and staff. This end-of-year celebration aims to foster students’ sense of pride and identity in their community. Show your school pride by wearing your SWS swag.
​
Please note that this is an event for current SWS families and that all students must be accompanied by at least one adult and that caregivers are responsible for supervising their little ones at all times.
​
For more information or questions, please contact Family IDEA Co-Chairs Jennifer Hicks and Tina Suliman.
Let us know if you can make it.
Please RSVP so we can make sure to have enough space and supplies.
